Are you getting a Z10?, some pricing and some videos

The Z10 is here, the new BlackBerry (in name and features) is here, are you getting one? i want one, but for me at this time its too expensive, it's too expensive off contract for me (i just bought a Nexus 4) and on contract it's to expensive, first off ,there are no "cheap" contracts for the Z10, they start at about £36 p/m over here, and most of them are asking for £50 for that, thats crazy, if im getting a new contract, it'll be with Three and their crazy cheap LTE Plans, let me just find a few  of the "best" contracts that are being sold with the Z10 :

Orange :Dolphin 900 Minutes,"Unlimited" Texts,250MB Data 
£36 Per month
£29.99 upfront cost for the phone

T-Mobile : Full Monty "Unlimited" Texts,Data and t-mo to t-mo minutes 2000 cross network minutes
£36 per month
£49.99 upfront cost for the phone

02 :Unlimited Texts and Minutes, 2GB Data
£36 per month
£129.99 upfront cost for the phone

Vodafone : Unlimited Texts and Minutes, 1GB Vodafone Data, 2GB BT Openzone HotSpot data
£37 per month
£69 upfront cost for the phone

EE : Unlimited Text and Minutes, 1GB 4GEE Data (god i hate the two e's EE put on 4G)
£41 per month
£49.99 upfront cost for the phone

so none of these contracts are cheap, these are the "best" all round contracts i have chosen/ the ones the companies recommend on their sites, i mean you can get a cheap contract, O2 offer a Z10 on a £13 contract, you just have to pay £399 up front and you get almost nothing, and EE charge a £5 premium to get 4GEE (god those e's frustrate me) and they own Orange and T-Mobile so you're getting the same signal whichever you go for, except that 4GEE is almost nowhere in the UK yet, and it definite isnt where i live ( :( sadface for Mobile-Dom).

Also, i think its worth noting that Carphone Warehouse and Phones4U have exclusives on the White Z10, which, in my opinion looks baller (it's the one i'd get)

i got a Friend of mines conscent to use his BlackBerry Z10 hands on Video , his youtube name is youtube.com/PDTechHD and on twitter he is @PDTechHD

so after all this, are you getting a BlackBerry Z10? if so, which contract? do you wish they were cheaper? sound of in the comments below.

also here is my video rant of the pricing above :

Should People consider a mid-range phone for their next upgrade?

2013 has been a bit of an odd year,for Smartphones that is, Every year we are basically conditioned to believe that we want the biggest and best phones that are available at that time, but that's actually changing,This year we have seen OEM's create "mini" versions of their phones, and for once, They.Don't.Suck This, is the Galaxy S4 Mini, From Samsung, it doesn't have the most mind-blowing specs , its a dual-core Snapdragon 400 (Krait 300) , it's got an 8MP camera from the Galaxy S III, it's pretty thin and pretty light, it's got a 4.3" qHD (960x540)  Super AMOLED screen, also the Design of the Galaxy S4 and some other stuff. And guess what, it's doesn't lag,and the Minor bits of lag that are there are Touchwiz based,which are being remedied as we speak, same as the Larger Galaxy S4, which ad software glitches which caused it to lag, they are being ironed out as we speak. And yes, the Screen might not be HD, but it kinda does...

Why I'm not a fan of the OnePlus 2

Photo credit from GSMArena To those that Follow me on twitter it's no surprise to you that I was very underwhelmed with the OnePlus 2, but it's hard to explain why in 140 Characters, so here I'm going to expand a bit more on the things I’m not a fan of and why. First up is the USB-C Port. Now as we already know, USB-C the Port isn’t the same as USB-C W/USB3.1, the Damn USB-C, it's there,but not quite there. latter is the all singing all dancing version of USB-C, nothing has this yet (the closest we have so far is the new MacBook and Chromebook Pixel, that use most of this, except at USB3 speeds, or what has retroactively been called, USB3.1 Gen1). The OnePlus 2 though, like the Nokia N1 before it, isn't doing any of this, it hasn't got support for up to 100w, it doesn’t transfer data at the blisteringly fast 10gbps (USB 3.1 Gen2) or 5gbps (USB3.0/3.1 Gen1), no the USB-C port on the OnePlus 2 is USB2 based, that’s right 480mbps, same as microUSB in ph...
