The backup from BB10 to my Mac (Lion) has taken some time - about 45 minutes. I dare not touch the phone or its cable for fear of interrupting the process.
After the backup, the update to the OS has taken approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes. The phone still works as a phone during the installation process - at least it does for inbound calls.
The phone is now rebooting. My fingers are very much crossed.
My hopes and aspirations are along these lines:
- Battery: It will being a modest improvement to battery life
- Display: It will fix a bug that makes the display distort by stretching it about 100% horizontally, but keeping the vertical intact (bizarre)
- Network: The firmware that runs the mobile part will improve the phone's ability to hold on to the data network and step up to 3G/HSPA when it's available and data's being used (I often have to hard-switch to 3G in Network Settings, then revert it to 2G/3G; same as on my BB Bold)
- Run away process: There is a random issue that leads to the phone feeling very hot to the touch. Sometimes on the battery side, sometimes the other; I hope the root-cause is addressed
It's just completed its reboot now. I'm in.
I'll give it a few weeks and then post my verdict.
