Any BlackBerry is a Canadian device.  So, remember, you do not have the "zee-30."  You have the "zed-30."

Given the instability with BlackBerry, grab one while you can. It's unfortunate, but I think BB10 is an example of a good product moving to the market too late. I think BlackBerry can do better as an enterprise focused company like IBM.

Here are some Specs from Negri Electronics which will be selling the unlocked version, they are in Las Vegas, NV.

You notice what the 4G LTE frequencies say?

 

1800 = band 2, 2600 = band 7 FDD-LTE.

I'm just saying that Sprint's version maybe not so far off. The frequencies they can get, and that BlackBerry did sign a license deal for LTE-Advance on there phones for which the Z30 would be the 1st from them to use it.

No, LTE 1900 is band 2.  LTE 1800 is band 3.

The BlackBerry Z30 passed through the FCC OET today.  It is multi band LTE.  But for Sprint, only band 25 LTE 1900 is relevant.

the only fly in this ointment for me is can i integrate the phone into my google apps..if it works as well as my frankenphone it's a keeper if not i'll have to find another android device.. :(

Do you mean Google apps for Business? Because they still use EAS unlike regular gmail.

I have included some ERP/EIRP figures in the comments following the Z30 article.  Power output does not look as solid as in previous, more traditional BlackBerry handsets.

    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
