Roadmap with BlackBerry 10 tablet appears online - tweakers.net

It is long since I was so excited about an OS.

A new OS like windows 8 are better under the hood and both also have a nice HUB when I windows as can call and so are a number of things which also shows that android and ios 6 especially just behind there (bugs, bugs and patches and paste that for months in a row, reminds me too much of symbiotic). The old android gets a new and improved successor named Ubuntu or I’ve been very high. Like Blackberry 10 Windows 8 also but one must simply adjust their structure and layout for windows 8 under the hood is very nice.

Blackberry 10 is also beautiful and looks a lot like Windows 8 under the hood but slightly better with HUB slightly better and better keyboard but seems quite similar but the interface is also finer in Blackberry 10 to use and that gesture, flow is superb.

I have the Z10 device may need a few tests / use and was in the beginning and was equally charmed kind weennen because sometimes you think what now but you will get it quickly and then work with it and then you just take you back again your i9000 and iPhone 4s and you notice that working with this and not feel cumbersome. BB 10 OS is just like, why has no one else thought of this and so simple but so great as far as operation is weird but so well thought out. You work so natural with it at some point once you see how it works that you do not understand that it can work. So

I’ve never had a blackberry phone blackberry 10 OS but I follow an while and it is great and it can always be better and is much better than when released ios or android 1.5.

I’m sold and everyone around me wonders why I take no S3 or HTC ONE because more apps on it and blackberry is annoying with his keys and they just do not understand it but you understand it only if you have a few days it should work and then get back on a 4.2.2 android or ios device 6. If BB10 was not so good I think I opted again for android but perhaps windows 8. I have a hatred for itunes (sorry)

BB10 seems simple and is very similar to Windows 8 under the hood and in terms of layout the best of windows 8 and android but with a much better service that seems so simple that just superior.

Yes, sorry I’m sold and android had ever looked before it was tipped uberhaupt on the market that future was here and that is proven and this I have with Blackberry 10.

It’s a long time since I was so excited about an OS.

After years of declining sales a change is emerging for BlackBerry. The Canadian manufacturer has waarschijnljik more smartphones sold in three months, and years earlier.

According to figures showing financial news agency Bloomberg has collected over the period March to May. BlackBerry then sold 7.7 million units. In the previous quarter the sales year plummeted to her even from 11 million to 6 million BlackBerrys.

The resurrection of Blackberry is due to the new models Z10 and Q10, which run on the equally new mobile operating system BlackBerry 10. Especially the Q10 with its traditional physical keyboard can loyal customers tempt. The Z10, which only has a touchscreen, is less well received by the general public.

Several analysts have their forecasts for BlackBerry’s sales results already increased. The company seems to have now new opportunities a new model of iPhone is not expected in the short term and the Galaxy S4 Samsung no overwhelming successes booked.


Sales increase of 20 percent is expected

Next Friday (June 28) makes BlackBerry the figures for the first quarter (March to May) are known. Analysts expect a sales growth of 20 percent to $ . 3.38 billion It would be the first sales increase after eight quarters of steady decline in sales.
The company surprised analysts already somewhat with the results for the fourth quarter of the previous year (December to February). Earlier than expected showed BlackBerry being hit.

from losses

In just begun, second quarter (June to August), however, the sales drop back to 7.4 million units, according to the poll by Bloomberg. This is because the demand for the Q10 then peaked while sales of older models even further falls.

On a sunny evening we went both indoor and outdoor different photos. The pictures we were indoors, could not tempt us. The colors were faded and the pictures showed noise and blur. Honestly we had for a device in this price range higher expectations!

The photos we took outside seemed at first sight of very good quality. However, when we see them full size, we also see here a little digital noise and blur. The natural color reproduction over again ensures that the photos do give a good impression for the occasional snapshot.

BlackBerry 10.2 will support Android 4.2.2 apps - tweakers.net

BlackBerry 10, no runs virtual Android.

Basically a BlackBerry 10 device just another Android phone.

Just like a normal Android phone, BB10 running a Unix-like OS ( Adnroid for Linux, QNX BB10 ear a POSIX OS)

On top of just running for both the Android Run-Time, the Java-based Android run-time, just compiled neatly as well as a Samsung Galaxy S4 done eg.

In this regard so it runs as fast (or even faster) and on similar hardware.

Some things are licensed or Google, like Google Maps, Music, Play Store. Which you will then also not see the BlackBerry version. As with Amazon Kindle for example, who also have their own store.

With version 4.2.2 in BB10.2 hardware acceleration is also supported, which allows the performance of the Android Application once given a boost.

What is not supported is the execution of the native code Android. These are the C / C + + libraries which some (game) developers use to still get.

Hope this makes things clearer and shows that for normal Android Apps this excellent performance have extra performance from the hardware on BB10.

"At the end of this year fourteen million BlackBerry ... - All About Phones

BlackBerry will have sold, end of the year fourteen million BlackBerry 10 smartphones says RBC analyst Mark Sue in The Financial Post. That’s more than eleven million BlackBerry initially thought to sell this year.

BlackBerry Z10 black BlackBerry Z10So

That’s pretty good for BlackBerry, although the sales against those of Apple and Samsung are still in the fall. BlackBerry currently has three percent worldwide market share, and that was once twenty percent in some countries.

Also in 2014 by the success of BlackBerry, Sue predicts that there tells that in the first quarter of next year three and a half BB 10 million devices over the counter will go. That was only three-quarters million less in his expectation.

The sales of BlackBerry are best homeland Canada, England and the Middle East, but also in the United States begins to draw again nice.

BlackBerry OS 10.2 adds support for Android Jellybean Apps - All About Phones

BlackBerry is working on an update for the BB OS 10 operating system after that update 10.2 will be called. The update brings with it the possibility to install.

easy Jelly Bean Android apps on a BlackBerry deviceBlackBerry Z10 black BlackBerry Z10

The update BB OS 10 will allow users to install all apps to Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean on their device. The first BlackBerry device that Android apps could be put on was the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet. Which now supports apps to Android Version 2.3.3 Gingerbread. Newer apps for later versions of Android can not be put on the PlayBook

It is also a bit tricky to put Android apps on the PlayBook,. There is an annoying detour needed, with the new BB OS 10.2 update would be very easy to convert an app that a BlackBerry Android apps can “understand” and also makes it easier for app developers to convert so that it can run. their app on two platforms To this end, a new version of the SDK BB OS 10 released, including the Eclipse plugin, plus beta versions of BB OS 10.2 so that the app developers are already set to work to and download store BlackBerry World with their converted Android apps can fill.

The launch of BB OS 10.2 is expected before too long. Moreover, it is still unclear whether the BlackBerry PlayBook Tablet still gets an update to the new BB 10 OS, because doing conflicting stories about.

BlackBerry 10.2 will support Android 4.2.2 apps - tweakers.net

Partially agree. Indeed run Android apps created with the SDK virtual (apps created with the NDK not incidentally)

So you have:.
-> A blackberry with hardware
-> containing an OS
—-> containing application layer
——> showing a virtual layer per app
——–> containing a Android emulator, consisting
———-> virtual hardware to act
————> Android OS API calls off
————–> Java sandbox (Dalvik)
—————-> and finally the app

I have not followed up above in any documentation whatsoever, but I can imagine it looks something like this.

Does not mean that it is bad for the performance (certainly not normal apps), but if there is going to be a little more than I asked doubts about the performance

I wonder how it is with:.
– The Play Store APIs (what if there are Android apps that feature using a Google+ login or Play Store APIs presented in I / O 2013)
– How are the intents handled, it is really an OS of Android what’s underneath ? What if one used on the share button click?

I believe that it works right, but this additional abstraction layer does have resources needed.
