Blackberry Bold 9700 Smartphone

The new and Bold 9700 has come in the market with a lovely and sleek design leaving all the size flaw in its Predecessor. The Bold now matches the size as that of Javelin or 8900, but with a keyboard of better-sized keys having proper spacing and also higher resolution screen. The Bold is one of the finest models, Blackberry has ever produced. The Bold perfectly fits in your hand with smooth and solid feel. Featuring almost same as its previous version, it adds to quad band 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and a really effective 3.2 mega pixel camera. Preloaded with more memory, it gives enough room to install more and more application as per your requirement. And, behold! You can add up to 16 GB of additional memory via a Micro SD card.

Bold uses the latest version of the Blackberry operating system – OS 5 which is quite faster, more integrated and manages to keep Blackberry right up there with competitive smartphones.
Apps of Facebook and Twitter are quite good on the Bold, which let you be connected to the community websites flawlessly. There is one small limitation, the built in Internet browser. With 3G and the latest software release – currently 5.0.0.433, it is pretty fast and effective, but to a certain point.
The Bold has the complete quality of the device – including the user experience. On the Bold, the hardware, software and applications, even third party apps, such as Opera, blends seamlessly, making using the phone simple, effective and most of all fast. The build quality is very good, the battery life is good and over everything the keyboard is the best,  Blackberry has ever given. The size and weight of the Bold are also near to perfection, and the new optical touch pad is every bit as good as the older ball device, which gives far less trouble with extended use.
The bold is presently very posh, at around R9000 without a contract. Cell users may feel it not so valuable for money, but then again if one takes it for granted that real quality never comes cheap, and the Bold should be available on most bigger contract packages for free, or with a nominal contribution. The built in multimedia functions are great, but bear in mind that the Bold is primarily a business phone, and if you want to focus on multimedia, the Storm 2 is a more effective device. This could primarily be attributed to its high resolution large screen. If you want what the Blackberry services offer, or looking for a replacement of your old Curve or Bold, and don’t want to get into touch screen phones, then the new Bold is a no brainer. In my opinion there simply is no better quality smartphone currently on the market.
