Pros-

>Butterfly will also pack some new Htc widgets which enhance the experience of android users 


Cons-


>Straighaway we know that five inch phones are not good for portability and do not look good on your face while attending a call

>Also Htc has categorized Butterfly as a phone not a phablet thus you will not receive a stylus which might disappoint some customers

>The default display of the phone is quite a bit large which means that you might not see as much content in one screen as you would wish in a five inch screen

>The phone's 2020 Mah battery is sure to drain fast with its 1.5Ghz processor, Quad-core and bright display

>The phone is priced really high, as its competitors have launched better specification phones with lower price with as much difference as a mind-boggling 10k

This phone is sure to give the user a great experience with high speed, great display and ease to handle multitasking .But all this comes at a price, a very high price and also the low battery life.If you are thinking to buy this, you should think once before shelling that extra money.

Blackberry Z10


As all mobile giants are getting their new high-end smartphones in the market, the competition is sure to heat up. With Phones such as Iphone5, S4, lumia 920, Htc one etc Blackberry will have a huge fight for top. In this article we are going to see the pros and cons of this new phone its specs and finally conclude whether its a good buy or not.

Specifications-

Screen size- 4.2inches
Dimensions- 65.6x130x9mm
Operating system- Blackberry 10
Camera- 8mp(primary) & 2mp(Secondary)
Processor- 1.5Ghz Dual Core RIM Processor
Ram- 2gb

Pros-

>Firstly the new os, blackberry 10 is really interactive, smooth, easy to use and looks good

>Blackberry has given a new look to its phone which looks beautiful & sleek

>The camera quality is good with the new Time-Shift Mode, Full HD video Recording and 5x zoom

>Great Processor  and Ram will really work great with the innovative and fluid BB 10

>2 new features- Blackberry Hub & Blackberry Flow

Blackberry Hub - this is like a manager which assembles and keeps track of your messages and manages your meetings and events

Blackberry Flow - this is a new feature in blackberry 10 which helps multitasking and makes switching b/w apps easy

>The Phone supports a great display both in low & high light environments

>The phones best feature is its smart keyboard which is very efficient

Cons-

>The appstore is still the biggest worry with not as many apps as in android or iOS

>The touch quality is horrible by which I mean really bad and the notification bar on top keeps popping if you touch anything at the top edges of the phone's screen

>The battery is 1800Mah which ideally would have been enough but with a high-quality processor the battery would be drained faster 

>The processor is Dual-core which might be a problem with heavy multi-taskers, should have been Quad-core at this price

>The Phone is priced really high as per its specs and one should not forget the additional charges of BBM

Overall the phone is a powerpack performer but the cons can overtake the pros especially with the bad touch quality.
So if you are considering this phone, I would recommend you rethink.
If you are a BB user you might like the new intuitive OS but for Android and iOS users this could be an out of comfort zone experience.
