BlackBerry Z30 shows up early in leaked video

The upcoming BlackBerry Z30 has been prematurely revealed in a leaked demo video of the handset. Originally referred to as the BlackBerry A10, the BB Z30 features a 5-inch AMOLED HD display, Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, 2GB of RAM and 2800mAh battery.

The hardware configuration has very close resemblance with the Z10, except for the bigger 5-inch AMOLED screen and larger battery. Here’s what we think the final configuration will be.

BlackBerry Z30 specs:
5.0 inch AMOLED HD display @ 720×1280 pixels
Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro 1.7GHz dual-core processor
Adreno 320 graphics
2GB RAM
16GB of internal storage
up to 32GB via microSD card
8MP rear camera
2MP front-facing
micro HDMI
WiFi 802.11 b/g/n, dual-band, WiFi hotspot
Bluetooth 4.0
NFC
HSPA+/LTE 100Mbps
GPS w/ aGPS support
Li-Ion 2,800 mAh battery
BlackBerry 10.1 OS

You can watch this 5-minute video demo to get a better appreciation of the handset (it’s in Vietnamese though):

Hey there! I realize this is kind of off-topic but I had
to ask. Does operating a well-established blog such as yours require a
large amount of work? I’m completely new to blogging however
I do write in my journal daily. I’d like to start a blog so I
will be able to share my personal experience and views online.
Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for new aspiring bloggers.
Appreciate it!

@wew yeah tama ka. Pero kahit sa business world uphill na Laban ni BB. mahihirapan na si BB lalo na nung lumabas si samsung ng knox security system sa mga s4. Direct competition naito vs sa unique selling point ni BB over business. Sometimes I wonder kung mas ok pa kung ginamit na lang nila android and doon na lang nila dinevelop yung os10 nila in a form of a custom UI.

@diorarat yeah mahirap na ngang makipagcompete sa kanila pero may pagasa pa naman ang BB,isa kasi sa mga advantage nya ay ang secured platform nila which is very important especially to big companies,kailangan lng nilang gawing mas user-friendly ang UI tska flexible(flexible in the way na hindi maiinggit ang BB users sa ibang OS users dahil may mga nagagawa sila na di kayang gawin ng sarili nilang OS) tska IBABA nila ang price nila im sure may bibili pa rin sa kanila =)

Mahirap ng lumaban sa full blown OS ng android and IOS. Si windows may almost unlimited marketing funds pero hindi pa siya makapagpenetrate paano pa si BB. BB has some softwares na dapat niya ipush instead of focusing on hardwares. Lahat ng tao would agree Blackberry Messenger is one of the best messaging app out there. Ngaun they are porting it on android and apple. i think this is a nice move for Blackberry. Leverage nila software nila instead of focusing too much on hardware.

Ok lang sa top and bottom yung bezel para may mahawakan kapag nakalandscape mode.

@abuzalzal: Ganyan talaga pagsikat ka na.hehe

BB should:
Lower their price,(dont compete with others)
Improve their OS(increase number of apps,improve their apps,etc.
Bonus na lng cguro ung mga features na naiisip nila na wala sa iba =)
*sa pamamagitan niyan natitiyak kong babangon muli ang BB

napakatanga mo. malaki ang bezel ng blackberry z30 kasi gaya ng z10 may gesture controls na naaactivate mula sa bezel.

walang kwenta ang products pero steady naman ang production. hindi naman sila kasing laki ng samsung or apple pero hindi naman sila ganoon kabagsak lalo na sa ibang markets.

sadyang madami lang dukha na gaya mo na mangmang sa kakayahan ng blackberry.

They’re like selling cheap adulterated Meth for the price of a grade-A Coke

For sure ”on par” na naman ang presyo neto sa mga up-coming SNAPDRAGON800 devices, which is ridiculous

It’s hopeless, they’re not even stagnating at this point… time to sell it while it still got some value
