BlackBerry Q10

Andrew Cunningham reviews the new Q10, the first BlackBerry 10 device with a hardware keyboard. I don’t fault BlackBerry one bit for making this device — if anyone has a die-hard base of hardware keyboard-addicted users, it’s them. But serious question: if there remains serious demand for a phone like this, why are there no top tier Android devices in this form factor? The Android phones I see suggest that hardware keyboards are on the cusp of extinction.
