BlackBerry Z30 review
It's not the best time for BlackBerry right now. Between layoffs and quarterly loses, the company is certainly going through a rough patch.

We know what you're thinking: you want out. Luckily Google has provided such an option with the ability to opt-out. These changes are set to go live on November 11th, so head on over to that new agreement and do what you will. Head up for more.
