Z10 to iphone5s?

Actually "Color Led Message" is headless now, it does not need an activeframe. So that removes point 2.

Does it? Well what about everything else besides that? Are all apps headless now or is it still limited to 8 active frames? If the answer is no all apps are not headless now then thst does not remove point 2. Furthermore is that official or in a leak because when I had 10.1 official it still wasn't headless.

Well, it says it in the App Description in BlackBerry World, and it works for me, so I think thats pretty official. And you can never expect all apps to be headless, things take time. Though as of now I only know of 2 headless apps, which are the LED one we were talking about and Profile Switcher (Notification profiles) but yea, they're coming. Its a BlackBerry, you've gotta expect it to be slow

With 10.2.1 and above, BB now supports headless apps. This should help resolve one of the major issues with the OS, where only 8 apps could be active at one time.

Hopefully, this should help spur development for the platform but I'm concerned that it may a little too late. The company has an uncertain future and many BB diehards are now moving to Android or iOS.

I came back to Apple from a Z10. I loved the Hub and the keyboard but the battery life was horrible and my data usage almost doubled on the z10. The iPhone 5s just works. The zed 10 had to be reset often and the lack of apps got old really fast. I even side loaded a lot of apps but they didn't work as well in most cases.

Might have to make a return. Loved the OS but those were annoyances

I have. The blackberry Z10 is a great phone with a gorgeous OS - I can see it becoming a top competitor if it gets a load more apps on it. But the main issue is the apps themselves (more specifically, the lack of apps) and Apple has a vast App Store compared to it. The fluidity of the OS is amazing, the gestures just work. I switched to Apple and never regretted it...

I'm still debating if I like the iPhone. The just works mantra is overrated because it doesn't work with me.

I have played extensively with os 10. It is nice. I would have gotten the z30 but too big.

How many non native apps do you use on a daily basis? Other than one newspaper app and one news app and navigation nothing else. Yet I have about 30 apps installed.

I have to agree to a point. I couldn't get yellow pages app to work (which I use a lot) or Directv app or even candy crush or CSR racing. I don't play a lot of games but I do have my favorites and I like to have them actually work. I do have a lot of apps that I don't use much so I have to agree to a point. Never could the HP eprint app to work either. I enjoy the warm fuzzy feeling I get just knowing my apps work and are there when I get ready to use them.

Speak about printing, i don't have any native air print printers..would be nice.

 

[jsntrenkler]

I have had both devices. If the Z10 had the app support that apple does I think it would be a very worthy competitor.

I just recently shifted to iPhone 4S from my Z10 .quite handy this phone is and I quite like it but I do miss the Z10.

Has anyone gone from Z10 to iphone5s or vice versa? What's your experience and input on it? I'm just curious. Thanks

What's a Z10?

 

[i7guy]

What's a Z10?

A z10 is the first blackberry with os 10. BBOS is more customizable than iOS, people I know who haves z10 really like it. The virtual keyboard is excellent and is way better than iOS keyboard. IMO.

Not to go to far off-topic, friends who have z10 are more than satisfied with battery life. Like the battery life thread on the 5s, for whatever reason it's variable on the z10 as well. A lot of friends have android or ipad or ultra-thins as a companion device anyway.

You should've put a little sarcastic on the post so we all know LOL

I must add that although I have used the Z10 and got okay battery life on it, I still would rather have a Galaxy s4 for instance and got better piece of mind with a better battery. The battery life on the Z10 is okay, but not fantastic by any means.

Agreed. The Z10 was the only phone I carried an extra battery for and actually had to use it. I haven't done that since the 9900.
