BlackBerry Bold 9700 Review

The original BlackBerry Bold made its debut about a year ago. Even though the original model is still a solid device, it's now time for a flashier, faster model that will make you yearn for an upgrade. The latest RIM BlackBerry Bold 9700 is available through T-Mobile and AT&T.
Pros:
  • 3G capable
  • Wi-Fi with UMA support
  • Optical trackpad
Cons:
  • Somewhat small hardware keyboard
  • BlackBerry Browser doesn't compare to the competition

Blackberry Bold 9700 Review

Still hot on the shelves for this winter holiday's shopping, Blackberry Bold 9700 features the same elegant business aspect, but fails to impress more than its predecessors. Considered as the right disciple of the older Bold 9000 smartphone, the new 9700 presents itself with little to none...
Pros:
  • The small upgrades done are some of the best highlights of the smartphone as well: best browser integrated in a BB device
  • QWERTY keyboard
  • touch-sensitive optical trackpad
  • DivX and Xvid support
  • 3.5mm port jack
  • great multimedia features (sound and video)
  • Wi-Fi
  • GPS and HSDPA connectivity.
Cons:
  • One thing I was disappointed with was the mediocre camera, even though I had expected that
  • Also, the addition of an FM radio feature would have been great
  • A larger screen and built-in compass would have been welcomed as well.

RIM BlackBerry Bold 9700

Tweet Holding the Bold 9700 in the palm of your hand, you know that BlackBerry has created a quality device. It looks classy and ready for business, with the chrome edges adding an elegant touch to the black body. As a messaging device, the Bold performs as well as you expect from a BlackBerry.
Pros:
  • All you really need from a smartphone is there- excellent messaging
  • Wi-Fi
  • HSDPA
Cons:
  • Browsing is an ugly affair
  • a boring (but effective) UI
  • smallish keys might bother some

BlackBerry® Bold 9700 Boldly steps up.

By now everyone has to know what a Big Fan I am of BlackBerry's so it's no surprise I am enjoying this BlackBerry® Bold 9700 on the T-Mobile Network (3G, EDGE, GPRS, WiFi). The Bold feels Slightly heavier than the Curve and has a nice leathery texture on the rear cover.

Aaron's BlackBerry Bold 9700 review

With any revision comes a list of improvements that make the device better than its predecessors, and the BlackBerry Bold 9700 is no exception.
