Blackberry 10 SDK Beta 3 - Blackberry 10. One operating system is derived from the QNX operating system in 2010 and then acquired by Blackberry. After a long wait, a few days ago, RIM Blackberry Jam held America, where RIM introduce Blackberry User Interface 10. Interesting? Of course!
Unfortunately, we did not get used on the Blackberry handset Blackberry Jam America. However, we get a sample from one of our sources. The operating system used is a Blackberry 10 last SDK Beta 3 released by RIM. Then how to "feel" it?
Testing: Not Runs Perfectly!
First, as with any general smartphone, Blackberry comes up with its lock screen. We also try to feature Blackberry Flow, where the opening of the lock does not fixated on a single line, but we can move it on each side of the screen with a different look.
We must admit that the first time you try it, not all the features work well. Several times, the gesture that we do not walk properly. However, when all goes well, each shear and pressure on the Blackberry screen is very smooth. One more that we regret, Blackberry Hub still can not run. Blackberry Hub combines all the messages into a single container to facilitate its users to read messages from different applications on the Blackberry.
One thing that we can not see are the hallmarks of Blackberry Peek. When we shift the screen from the bottom edge to the middle, we did not find the icon of the Blackberry Peek. Peek Blackberry itself is a collection of icons that will come out on the left side of the screen, showing which applications are getting the message, whether its Facebook, BBM, and others.
We also tried to open some existing applications natively on the device, one browser. Browser available in the new OS is very different from the existing browser on BB devices currently available. When you open the browser, you will see several boxes containing a screenshot of the website you have visited before. Its address bar was also moved from the top to the bottom.
After opening the browser, you do not need to close it. Just slide the screen from the outside bottom of the screen to the middle. It will make you minimize the browser window. At that time, you will see what applications are running. Collection boxes are called Active Frames. Yup, before the user presses the symbol "X", the application will continue to run in the background this smartphone.
And what about the Blackberry App World of his own? Blackberrys online store itself has changed. Not only the applications and games that will be on display there. BB App World this time will also display song and video commercial that can be directly purchased by its users. According to the newspaper, the number of applications on BB App World itself has reached about 100,000 applications.
Lastly, we tried the UI settings and drop down menu that introduced since OS 6. Grouping is more detailed settings for this BB10. Pretty well indeed compared with the previous OS. Comfort settings on any Android we get here.
Dropdown menu in BB10 underwent a change in shape. All the icons are there precisely made to fit the thumb its users. All support the operation of the slide and press down well, as does the other smartphone operating systems.
Unfortunately indeed, when we got not too long to test BB10 smartphone with this one. We did not test how well the fuel to run, how to perform sleep mode smartphone, and so forth. However, when testing the Graphical User Interface (GUI) of this smartphone, we get a picture of the BB10. For Blackberry users that exist today, BB10 will be a new experience that is better than the previous OS.
If all goes well and a lot of developers are flocking to create applications and games on BB10 platform, of course, would be a powerful threat to the Apple iPhone, Google Android, and Microsoft on its Windows Phone 8. It is not possible if the target of the CEO, Thorsten Heins, who was third in the competition aiming Mobile OS, can be achieved.
Blackberry users are now, unfortunately, will not get an OS upgrade to BB10. This is because the specifications required by BB10 quite high. So, like it or not, you do not want your BB device only for fuel only, must purchase new devices in the next year.
