The BlackBerry Z10 has been available in the United States for just over a week now, and we kicked off the U.S. availability with a bang in New York City. Melanie and I travelled there for a special launch event called the BlackBerry Experience. While there were some amazing performances and special guests, the true star of the show was the new BlackBerry Z10. Don’t take my word for it, watch the video below to see what fans were saying about the new BlackBerry smartphone features we showed off in NYC.

The performances by Janelle Monae, Young the Giant and DJ Z-Trip with friends Questlove & Ludacris were amazing. And as you can see people were blown away by Time Shift Camera, BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) with BBM Video Chat, and of course the gorgeous hardware design. Does this video have your mouth watering for some hands-on time of your own? You can pick up the new BlackBerry Z10 from one of these fine carriers below.

During the BlackBerry 10 launch event, some of our biggest fans were given the opportunity to experience the BlackBerry Z10 in a real-world demonstration through the streets of New York City. The group visited a series of landmarks where they completed various tasks on their BlackBerry 10 smartphones focusing on the new features.

Some of the challenges included capturing a mid-air jump with BlackBerry Time Shift, creating a work of art with the sleek new BlackBerry Picture Editor, and capturing the memories of the day using the incredible BlackBerry Story Maker app.

In true Team BlackBerry form, everyone successfully completed the challenge, and had a blast doing so! But don’t take our word for it – check out a recap of the day:

We took the challenge one step further with the BlackBerry Story Maker films and offered a prize for the best video. We took a long hard look at all the groups’ BlackBerry Story Maker videos from the day, and while it wasn’t an easy decision, check out the winning video and get a glimpse of what’s possible with BlackBerry Story Maker:
