iPhone users are jealous of my BlackBerry Z10

As a BlackBerry user, these are exciting times. A new platform, two new devices so far with more on the way and things are looking pretty solid for BlackBerry. Because of that, there is a lot of excitement in the CrackBerry forums. Finally, after months of waiting BlackBerry users have some new hardware to show off and they're doing so proudly and the best part about it all is that others are...

How to take a screenshot on the BlackBerry Q10

How to take a screenshot on the BlackBerry Q10

One of the lesser know features of the BlackBerry Q10 is the built-in ability to take a screenshot. Unlike BlackBerry phones of years past, you no longer need an external application (or any application at all) to take a screenshot on your BlackBerry Q10. You may want to take a screenshot for any number of reasons. To capture your icon arrangement, document something on your device or for...

Will Q10 demand drive a huge turnaround in BlackBerry’s financial results?

Will Q10 demand drive a huge turnaround in BlackBerry’s financial results?

Last quarter, with only one month worth of Z10 shipments, BlackBerry shipped one million devices running the new BlackBerry 10 platform and posted better than expected results - particularly gross margin.  Now that the Q10 has hit a few markets, could things get even better? Could BlackBerry return to a level of profitability worth of Wall Street respect in the next couple of quarters? I suspect...

Avoid additional carrier bills with DataCheck Pro for BlackBerry 10

Posted by James Richardson on 6 May 2013 3:41 am

DataCheck Pro is probably one of the most simple apps available for BlackBerry 10 - yet possibly one of the most useful. Around the world the amount of data that BlackBerry users get with their carriers varies a lot. Here in the UK it is quite common for networks to offer 750mb per month, which for me certainly wouldn't be enough. That's where DataCheck Pro comes in handy. The application...

Vining for attention

I confess. I like Vine. I used it yesterday for the first time and have been having some fun the past 24 hours making my own Vine creations (yes, I've been walking around the past 24 hours with 3 phones in my pocket... Z10 / Q10 / iPhone 5). You can check out my first Vine attempts below. The roof top one is pretty epic. *Note - It appears embedded Vines don't seem to play too nice on the CB10...

Get your cowboy boots and hats ready for the gunslinging RPG Six Guns

Posted by DJ Reyes on 5 May 2013 2:11 pm

We recently saw the popular western RPG, Six Guns land on BlackBerry 10 and it wouldn't be CrackBerry if we didn't bring you a video demo of the game play. I don't often play RPG games but the free game from Gameloft was too awesome to pass up. There are many missions to keep you busy, ranging in difficulty and occasionally encounter some supernatural enemies. You collect coins and stars...

They're certainly not on the same level as the BlackBerry Q10 or the BlackBerry Z10 but that's been pretty much known for a while now...
