Just came across your blog and your Blackberry 10 posts in particular. I cannot afford to buy both the Z10 and Q10 and whilst I understand that the Q10 'sacrifices' screen real estate, I can live with that... IFF, Youtube videos play 'properly'. It concerns that having a smaller screen and then viewing videos in a 'letterbox' will be even smaller.
I don't consume much media but if I'd like to watch a video from Youtube, it would be nice to use all of the 3.1" screen of the Q10.
Hi there, unfortunately the video will indeed display the video in letterbox mode because of the Q's 1:1 ratio. I posted an example of this up on CB a few days back. The link can be found at the bottom of my recent 'one week later' blog.
Hope this helps you make your decision a little easier.
Hi Michael, can you let me know if you are happy for the Met Office to use a 10-15 second clip of your Thames Barrier video on one of its Learn About Weather animations? We are happy to add any copyright captions alongside. regards. Mark
