The Blackberry Bold 9700 is the best QWERTY keypad Blackberry there is, with its sculpted keys and compact style 3g and WI-FI it is fair to say that this smartphone has the best of all worlds if you are a Blackberry fan. It has retained all that is best about Blackberry smartphones and then gone on from there.
The Bold 9700 has overall dimensions of 60 x 109 x 14 mm and weighs in at 125gms it has an ample display screen at 37 x 55 mm and has a resolution of 360×480 pixels. It retains that comfortable feeling of solidity that make Blackberry users keep coming back, but also they have once again refined their ergonomics especially with their QWERTY keypad. Even though the keys are crammed together you can text or email at full speed due to the sculpted keys.
Emailing is as good as ever and even the fact that you must subscribe to Blackberry to use it is not too much of a turn off. With the Facebook app it is possible to see your Facebook messages as well as Gmail and company email accounts.
You can also upload your contact lists from Gmail and Facebook providing you have the apps installed.
It has a 3.2 megapixel camera and two led lights which in fairness are a lot better than all of the other blackberries that came before it, again it is little better than a snapper but really that’s what a camera phone is for.
Internet browsing is also better with the 3g and WI-FI and keeps Blackberry just about up to date with all the other models coming on the market.
Again Blackberry has produced a smartphone that is great for business and equally performs as a trendy mobile internet accessory.
The Blackberry Bold 9700 is the best that Blackberry has to offer in this format and if you are a fan then you cannot go wrong.
