what's up everyone this is Todd Hazleton from TechnoBuffalo you might not recognize my name but I am the head of mobile for the company and I usually am on the home page writing stories but let's just dive right into what we're doing today this is BlackBerry 10 big news I just got back from the press events and I have the z10 unit I honestly I haven't opened this yet so here you go black box inside of that I think it's unlocked because I don't see any carrier branding and didn't come with a sim so here's the device itself really sleek and smooth exactly what we've seen in the leaks if you've got the volume buttons on the right nice silver accent 3.5 millimeter headphone jack up top with the power button looks like a microphone on the left hand side you have wow it's already sort of the back covers popping off if you see that I just took it out of the box in the case microUSB charging and HDMI out nothing on the bottom that's an 8 megapixel on the back and I'll get this booted up but in the meantime you've got a 4.2 inch display on the front here that's a 1280 by 768 resolution 356 PPI under the hood that's a 2 megapixel camera right there - under the hood you are rocking a dual-core 1.5 gigahertz processor let's actually lift up the hood here it's plastic okay so it's not you know what you're gonna get from an iPhone the glass back but here you can see the connectors there for NFC a spot for a SIM card spot for microSD it has 16 gigs of storage onboard you can add additional 32 I believe with the q10 you can actually pack up to 64 batteries not yet inserted so I assume it's in the box so let's quickly put this aside and go through the Box got this velvet look here and I'm guessing this is a what the unlock devices will come with but I don't think carriers will I don't know what we have here stickers you know these are business cards I guess for the PR EPS if we need them blackberry smartphones safety guide you know the Yatta Yatta Yatta start here okay well you know we all know how to use phones right what's this it looks like it comes with a case okay so typical BlackBerry fashion I was gonna say rim but they changed your name today it's a BlackBerry officially so that makes sense that skeletal sticker on it take that off and it's got a nice little carbon-fiber ish design but it's it's plastic or you know pleather what else does it come with charging cable a screen wipe the wall wart some headphones yeah these are those like cheapo plastic ones that you can pick up for two bucks at Walgreens and then of course the charger or the battery rather what do we have for milliamp hours and 1800 milliamp hour battery okay they're promising up to ten hours of battery life over 3G the phone does support LTE and HSPA+ I don't know what model we have yet like I said I'm just opening this for this for the first time here with you guys so let me put this cover back on I'm gonna pop my sim in real quick so you can actually get an experience and see what's going on and I'll show you the whole boot up sequence alright I'm back it's booting there's a little red light that came on the typical indication light that we've seen before now I popped it an 18 t sim card that I usually use with an LTE device so you know we might get HSPA+ I'm not sure bit of a slow boot it looks like you can kind of sleep that there's a an indicator bar moving along I'm guessing and hoping that this is just a one-time thing because again the first time I've ever powered on the device okay we're back it looks like it is 18 T alright B device Blackberry English welcome to blackberry now we swipe down according to the swipe left to continue gonna connect us to AT&T um yeah let's skip that we're gonna skip the actual Wi-Fi network part right now swipe left okay that was right I guess English United States I don't know what it's doing right now okay an agreement you know I don't have a blackberry ID right now so give me two seconds I'll create one and then we'll get back to the video okay I signed in with my ID now we're just going through a software update I have I have the latest version I guess okay great essential gestures what are we gonna learn here tutorial on how to navigate swipe left while in an app touch the edge of the glass and slide your finger down to see more options there you go we have an option to start an emergency call to leave this set up at touch the bottom and slide your finger up yeah hey we're finally out of the tutorial set up email and BlackBerry hub that's over here I'll do that real quick actually you know what I don't have a fake email address let me try to sign in and we'll try to let's see well skip ok so you get your alerts in the hub ok so you get you can see your emails and this is anytime notifications and this comes from bbm as well as I'm not sure what that says or why as well as Facebook LinkedIn Twitter Foursquare calls everything is always over there you just you swipe and you're there so that little slide up there leaves us you know takes us right back to the home screen here we have apps what can we see here BlackBerry World that's where all of the does a weird animation all the movies music and apps are Angry Birds is there LinkedIn is there top albums Bruno Mars is up in there top movies you've got Ted that's a good one and then some TV episodes and of course you can search so again swipe up and you're out and swipe right and you're over here it's your apps again let's see if you guys know me on Twitter I'll quickly sign in and we'll show you that app one sec and we're back here's Twitter pretty basic at connect discover me everything that you usually see on an Android or an iOS application again swipe up and you're out swipe left and you're automatically getting in there you can see I was already showed my Twitter notifications for privacy reasons let's just try to leave that off the screen for now in any case so say we're in Twitter though if I swipe left we get nothing swipe up and we exit swipe down and you get the additional menu so you get settings and that's it okay so we're out now we can go to blackberry world swipe left we get to Notification Center I wonder why or it's called blackberry hub I wonder why they didn't show up during Twitter swipe down we've got the other options there so that's sort of like hitting the menu button on Android you've got zero download scan barcode for finding in an app and you're out again so let's check out the browser real quick again we're doing this together here so I hope that I'm covering as much as I can looks like you got your bookmarks right there here's the keyboard for the first time TechnoBuffalo comm first time I didn't want to load exactly okay so here we go we're on TechnoBuffalo the page is really quick and snappy let's quick an article real fast again I'm not even on Wi-Fi right now what was that it seemed to have gone black a little bit so I guess we can't kind of go back and get that menu but it looks like it'll play videos right inside the browser swipe down we just see the top bar there and swipe out and it's always sort of live so if we come back it's always live according to them Media error it's loading very slowly sweet so we'll go back again to the home page we can see that looks like this is ported nope our top bar is bar is not supported but again it looks like it was loading articles pretty quickly before everything is always in action see if they have any preloaded videos for us none I'm guessing the same goes for music nothing there okay so you can always buy videos and music now let's show it I want to show you a camera really quick because that's one of the cool thing that RIM did here or blackberry now as I should say taking pictures is really quick now if we want we could change the mode we're on normal right now we can go to burst and I presume it took a bunch of pictures and I want back to normal now here's the one where rims been talking about you can go back in time so say you take a picture you hear that there's a couple clicks and go back in time and see the actual progression of the film so let's do this again where we have some movement and for example this would be great if somebody doesn't smile in your picture whoa okay so that's a good one see my finger got in the way but if we jump back in time it's not in the way anymore and there it comes in so we would want to save this image instead we would just hit the check box there now we can exit again by doing that and again here we go back to our notifications in our hub at all times now from the lock screen you can see notifications here it looks like I have an alarm you can slowly pull up on the screen and it kind of just reveals the contacts that rather all the applications so here well as with most phones you might have to hit the power button first just to get here with the power button off you can actually unlock the device just by swiping up so that's pretty neat and before I forget let me show you text messages and I don't know why it's in another language right now but we'll hit compose I want to show you the keyboard so I could start with hey now you can see words start to complete hey what's it already knows that so I just toss it up you see that and I could toss up up and then I could toss up man hey what's up man or I could what's up man add a little smiley face or a little crying guy what else we have in here a little airplane so pretty cool you know it's a great keyboard so far I've just played with it for 10 seconds on camera with you guys I'll use it more this will be shipped out to John he's gonna do a full review so thanks everybody for checking this out real quick with me again this is a blackberry z10 from rim or blackberry now and my name is Todd Hazleton with TechnoBuffalo you
