The Q10 sticks to BlackBerry's signature formula: a physical QWERTY keyboard paired with a compact 3.1-inch square Super AMOLED screen running at 720 x 720 pixels. That's dense enough at 328 ppi to keep text sharp, which matters on a device built around typing and messaging rather than media consumption. Under the hood you get a dual-core processor (Snapdragon S4 on the LTE model, TI OMAP on the non-LTE version), 2GB RAM and 16GB storage, with a microSD slot that takes you up to 64GB extra.

BlackBerry Q10 price in Malaysia starts from RM668, putting it firmly in budget territory by today's standards. The 8MP rear camera handles 1080p video and includes autofocus and LED flash, useful for quick shots rather than serious photography. A 2100mAh battery backs the compact 139g body, and it still runs BlackBerry 10 OS, upgradable to v10.1, with NFC on board for tap-based tasks.

It's a niche pick now, mostly relevant to buyers who specifically want a keyboard-first device or need it for legacy enterprise use rather than as a modern all-rounder.
