The Bold is my first smart phone, having used mobile phones for over 10 years. Rather than list what is already in the specs I will share what I like most and use most on this phone. Mobile Internet: This is a great feature on any smart phone. The screen size and brightness and the easy scroll wheel make navigating sites easy. Also the qwerty keyboard makes it possible to actually type into boxes or searches so as to make the internet accessible.
It's a bit on the heavy side. IF you are coming from an older BB Curve, then you will notice the gain in weight of the Bold. It's not iPhone and it's not trying to be. It is really suited for the "business" type. Push email is awesome and same with the BBM (Black berry messenger) Of course a Data plan is needed to use those features and that is carrier dependent. Things to look out for this phone is the track-ball that dies prematurely (but is an easy fix) and poor battery life (turn of Wifi when not in use to conserve battery life) All in all I give this a 9 out 10 for a Smart Phone.
The RIM BlackBerry Bold boasts one of the sharpest displays we've seen on a smartphone and offers great multimedia performance. The smartphone also brings HSDPA support, more productivity tools, and an updated OS. Other goodies include Wi-Fi; GPS; Bluetooth; and strong e-mail support with full QWERTY keyboard. It is one of the top smart phones to have from Blackberry and it is very nice to use for personal use. A MUST BUY FOR FIRST TIME BLACKBERRY OWNERS
I gave up my iPhone for a Blackberry Bold, and have not one single regret. I'm glad I used an iPhone for a while because I would have wondered if I'd made the right choice w/the BB. But I'm not a touch-screen, iPhone kinda gal. The Blackberry has more of a learning curve, and I've needed to work with my carrier to get some features tweaked (but that's with any smartphone really). It's been worth it. The BB has all the email, messaging, calendar and other apps (along with sync-age of course) that I needed and in particular the document production features are delightfully accessible and easy to use. Contrary to selling agent's promises, iPhone does NOT have the same accessibility and ease of use compared to iPhone. The BB keyboard though small is surprisingly easy to use, much easier than the touch screen. My accuracy has increased and I can use full sentences again! (I have to say I missed the tactile feeling of manipulating the phone; I felt like I was groping in the dark sometimes with iPhone.) Gorgeous screen, better call quality than the iPhone. I haven't set up the music feature yet, but there is an app that will allow me to access my iTunes library. The Home menu was better on the iPhone but you take the not-so-great with the great when great far outweighs not-so. The iPhone still is for surfers, gamers, and media/music buffs, not business. All in all this was an excellent and happy choice for me.Read full review
I like most everthing about this phone. Too bad AT&T doesn't support it well. Wanted to get a new one when I killed my old one but could not so bought a used one privately. Apps are easily available and music radio can be accessed in about any genre you could want. Again AT&T has some pretty poor coverage in most of my area & that is the only limitation. Usually, internet works fine, screen is bright & pictures/videos easy to take. Have taken this phone to Japan and it worked GREAT! I have relatively short fingers & I can use it with one hand pretty easily. If there is a limitation it might be the trackball. An optical scroller might be better but after a year or so don't know. I would not trade my 9000 for the TORCH, Pearl or i-phone. RIM has a winner here even though is't getting a little "long in the tooth" these days. For those of us that like (need) the tactile feel this is a great phone, Androids not withstanding.Read full review
