BlackBerry Z10 (CDMA)
Have one!
When you turn this thing on it at least teaches you a couple of basic gestures to use before you get too far with it so you aren't going WTH?
Everything feels different. The only obvious similarity between OS 10 and anything before it is when you get into the settings. A little bit of familiarity there.
Email was simple to set up. It somehow figured out that I filter company email through googles servers with just address and passwords only. Thought I was going to have fun setting that up correctly.
Lots of apps to look through. almost too many for me at the moment. Last I heard there were 100,000 plus. Maybe the app counters among us will wait u...

I have a list of things I need to look up online so I can get better at using this thing. You can't pick it up and be an expert on it within minutes like an iPhone. Its heavily gesture based.
Battery life will be put to the test today. I downloaded Angry birds star wars and my 4 year old won't let me have the phone back 🤣

Got one today. I'm finding my way around. But there are some things that have me stumped. I can't find a way to set auto on/off times. And I haven't been able to assign a picture to a contact.

To delete one email without opening it, just touch on it and hold it for more than 2 seconds. The trash icon will show up. Something they went to in OS7 when they ditched the storms.
To delete multiple emails, hold down on one email, then when the sidebar shows up press the icon with the check on it. Then highlight the rest of the emails you want to get rid of. At the bottom it tells you how many emails you have selected to delete. Final step is to press the trash can icon.
