RIM Blackberry Z10 press images leak out, looks like the real thing

RIM is about to launch its BlackBerry 10 mobile operating system in just about a couple of days at a huge event and next month the first actual BlackBerries running on the new platform should arrive.

The BlackBerry Z10, the very first one, has already leaked out countless times in images and video, but this time it seems we have something special as @evleaks has gotten hold of what it claims is the official press image. And judging by all we’ve seen so far we have no reason to doubt its veracity.

The BlackBerry Z10, an all-touch device with no physical QWERTY keyboard, looks slightly conservatively designed, nothing outworldly, it’s a bit plain, but that simplicity and lack of radical decisions might actually help it get the sympathy of a wide range of people.

We ourselves are not enamored by the design, but what seems more important is what materials would RIM pick for the final device and what would be the feel because nothing feels worse than cheap plastic. With so many month in development, though, we have no reason to doubt RIM would at least pull the BlackBerry Z10 from a design perspective. Take a look at the leaked images right below.
