BlackBerry Bold 9900 review: Business reimagined

 

A brand new OS, more speed, a facelift and a high-res touchscreen, the latest of the Bold messengers is listening for the roar of the crowd. There's no going back to the old rational and composed self - give it danger, thrills and excitement. The...

Enhanced email and data security ; 2.8" 16M-color TFT touchscreen of VGA resolution (640 x 480 pixels) ; QWERTY keyboard ; Quad-band GSM support and quad-band 3G with HSDPA ; Dual-band Wi-Fi b/g/n connectivity ; NFC capabilities ; GPS receiver and...

BlackBerry Internet Service account is a must to enjoy all phone features ; Fixed focus camera of outdated and unintuitive interface ; No video-call camera ; No Flash support ; Non-hot-swappable memory card ; No FM radio ; No haptic feedback

More screen resolution and power than BlackBerry owners know what to do with? Certainly not. It’s more than they’re used to though and that makes the Bold Touch 9900 a very attractive upgrade option.

RIM BlackBerry Bold 9900 (T-Mobile)

 

T-Mobile bills the BlackBerry Bold 9900 as a 4G phone, but it isn?t quite, and it?s still not good enough to sway current Android or iPhone owners either.

Thin, sleek design. Excellent QWERTY keyboard. Sharp screen.

Very expensive. No Wi-Fi calling. Poor-quality apps compared with Android and iOS.

Multimedia, Camera, and Conclusions The buried microSD card slot is a pain, but BlackBerry Desktop Software makes it easy to sync songs, playlists, and videos with a PC or Mac. Music tracks sounded clear through Samsung Modus HM6450 Bluetooth...

BlackBerry Bold 9930 review

 

The BlackBerry Bold 9930. You've got to hand it to RIM — the company may be spinning its wheels, but it's certainly not sitting still. While we've been hearing rumors and seeing leaked photos for...

Gorgeous industrial design ; Best-in-class physical keyboard ; Speed and graphics performance greatly improved

BlackBerry OS is dated and clunky ; Software selection is abysmal ; Cramped display can be troublesome

This is a die-hards-only phone, one of the last of its breed

RIM BlackBerry Bold 9900 Review

 

It's time to take a look at T-Mobile's new BlackBerry smartphone – the Bold 9900. Obviously, it's the GSM cousin to the CDMA flavored Bold 9930 , but what separates it is the hefty $299.99 on-contract it's flaunting and the support for T-Mobile's HSPA+...

The Blackberry Bold 9900 is the newest touchscreen Blackberry and the thinnest model yet. The phone is constructed out of metal, making for a rugged and solid device ready for whatever might come its way. The 2.8 inch screen is larger than the previous...

BlackBerry Bold 9900 : Bold Statement !

 

There was a time when BlackBerry used to enjoy an enviable position among the corporate set. Its secure push email was so popular that RIM could afford to omit even basics like a camera. But the evolution of the smartphone market forced RIM to come up...

BlackBerry Bold Touch 9900 Review

 

Sporting a price tag of Rs. 32,490, the Bold 4 does look like it has come nicely dressed in a suit with a crisply pressed shirt. However, beyond the looks, there is a bit of familiarity to the entire package. OS7 looks a lot like the OS6, and the...

Brilliant bright and vivid display, Touchscreen capability is a value add, QWERTY keypad is the best we have seen so far, Elegant looks and sleek form factor

Still not enough apps, Battery life isn't as good as the Bold 3, Pricey

BlackBerry Bold 9900 review

 

While the battle for dominance in the smartphone market rages on, RIM is getting battered and bruised. Lagging behind the competition has left RIM with no choice but to expedite the development of their much awaited next generation, the QNX mobile...

Good screen, text is clear and very readable ; Blazingly fast and lag free performance results in a very enjoyable user experience ; Good battery life, full charge lasted me a whole day

A few months back, my fellow Technoodling editor Vic and I sold our BlackBerrys and switched to Android. However, after this review, I’m 100% ready to switch back to BlackBerry. The improvements that come with BlackBerry 7 and the better hardware has...
