During the presentation of the new BlackBerry phones, some operators commented on their official Twitter channels that they would have the flagship among their ranks. The operators that came to the fore were Vodafone and Orange. And, of course, they were referring to the BlackBerry Z10 model, the new multi-touch of the Canadian company.
About a year ago, a new CEO was put in charge of RIM ( Research in Motion ): Thorsten Heins. After the change of name of the company, which was discovered yesterday, and was directly renamed BlackBerry, the head of the company took the stand and showed the audience the new models that will rival the market with other smartphones . It was the BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Q10.
The first of them was the one that attracted the most attention: it went out of the classic design to which they are accustomed from those of Waterloo and showed a very fine terminal, with a touch of elegance and where the 4.2-inch screen took center stage. Meanwhile, the BlackBerry Q10, although it will also have a multi-touch screen, this would combine with a full physical keyboard; that is to say: it was again betting on a more typical design of this type of advanced mobile.
However, it did not take long for Spanish operators to join the bandwagon, and while the conference was being held in New York City, Vodafone and Orange left their respective messages on the social network Twitter. And they commented that the completely tactile model would become part of two offers catalogs. Likewise, neither of the two companies let us know what the final prices would be and if its price in free format, which is around 600 euros, would be improved once it arrived in Spain.
Hours later, the third company, Yoigo, joined, which also showed interest in the new BlackBerry smartphone . Although in this case it was somewhat more cautious: it was only reported that they intended to offer the BlackBerry Z10.
On the other hand, the most surprising note was given by singer Alicia Keys. The music star took the stage alongside Thorsten Heins and introduced herself as the new Global Creative Director of the company's new era. In this way, BlackBerry ensured that its terminals have a presence at public events and that the singer shows them at each event. Also, the singer commented for a while about her particular relationship with BlackBerry. And he said goodbye to the executive reminding him that they would meet at the office.
However, the love she confessed to her BlackBerry terminal was not very credible: if you took a look at her Twitter profile, Alicia Keys is prone to comment from her iPhone; What's more, it is common on the Instagram network, a service that is only available for Android mobiles and for the Apple terminal. What's more, a curious message was also discovered on Google+, the Mountain View social network. In it, the singer "" and composer "" launched a message of love and addiction on her iPhone. Of course, a few hours after the presentation "" and perhaps, after the wake-up call "" the first messages sent from his new BlackBerry were launched on the Internet.
