The editors didn't like
No native Outlook syncing functionality is a big surprise - see our work-around here

Not enough nonbusiness related apps in BlackBerry App World
We don’t have many complaints about the BlackBerry Z10’s hardware
But we will say this
The camera’s pretty pathetic. You won’t notice it in daylight
But in badly lit rooms it doesn’t so much struggle as fail completely

Uncompetitive audio and video performance

Screen could be a tad brighter
It feels a little hefty in the hand
And there are elements of the software that are unintuitive or need to be tweaked
Well balanced handset; Quite easy to use; 4G; Payment systems handled by the new operating system; BlackBerry Hub does a good job of connecting every message and account;
Not the greatest battery life; App ecosystem lacks some of the big apps you may want to use; Camera autofocus could be quicker;
