iPhone is outdated: BlackBerry CEO

Is this guy related to Jacob Zuma?
 
I am no apple fan but, Ceo DID you see your own phones? :erm:
 
Sorry to burst a few bubbles here but I agree 100% with him. I've said as much myself. Others here did as well. iOS needs a serious injection of innovation and evolution. I love my iPad Mini but when I need a tablet to do work on I have to go Android JB (Note 10.1 at present). I tried the iPad 4 but sold it as it frustrated me (one thing at a time in series, Just like Heins says). On phones it is less of an issue, but not dismissively so.

Agreed but I would prefer it coming from a successful company. Let me tell you setup Exchange emails on an iOS device vs Blackberry 10.

iOS no issues Blackberry 10 issue after frikking issue from the company that was famous for emails on their phone? What about Blackberry 10 where most of their "popular" apps are badly ported from Android

If users want what this blackberry dude says they want then why don't they buy phones with OS that multi-tasks?

Huh, none of what you've said makes sense.

The iPad Mini & 4 are functionally identical. How can increasing the form factor by 2", adding a much higher fidelity/quality screen & increasing CPU/GPU performance suddenly take it from lovely to frustrating?

And BTW real work as you say gets done in apps not the OS, which the iPad has a better selection of.
 
i am an iOS fan but i agree... IOS needs something special again. no "wow" factor anymore
 
This comment made me LOL. Sounds like sour grapes. Blackberry should just give up and die already... (spoken with hatred by someone that has had to support their painful, poorly coded, pathetic back-end infrastructure)

Its like one tortoise saying to the other: "Dude, you are slow". BB and iOS look virtually identical. Perhaps different functions, but identical look.

BlackBerry needs to take the log out of its eye out first before it starts pointing at the stick in iOS's.

I mean, peek. Thats it?

I don't need to play peekaboo with my notifications. They are always there (exactly where I put them) on my Windows Phone start screen.

He does have a point but its a little late.
Sure the Z10 is quite a leap from where they were but they allowed the company to be dragged through the mud.
They've lost a lot of credibility as a result.

Simple. My iPad Mini is an excellent recreational device (and better at it than the much heavier iPad 4), and the Note 10.1 is an excellent workhorse.

And BTW the days of stating that iOS apps are better are over. The quality of apps on Android has improved dramatically and the better apps are available on both platforms anyway BUT on Android I can multi-task AND access a common file depository which allowes me to use one of several apps to open/use/access a file ... and no need for iTunes ... just plain drag and drop from any computer or USB drive onto my tablet.
