RIM BlackBerry Bold 9780 smartphone

If you've seen one BlackBerry, you've sort of seen them all: the latest models nearly all talk the same design language of smallish screen and biggish keyboard, the unchanging row of buttons and, generally a chrome frame.

BlackBerry Bold 9780

The Bold 9780 maintains BlackBerry's excellent reputation as a brand that delivers solid smartphones with excellent personal communication. But is this enough with the competition so hot on the heels of the mighty BlackBerry?
Pros:
  • Excellent battery life
  • Offers the best unified messaging experience
  • Old design still feels solid
Cons:
  • Handset design more a refresh than a revolution
  • No wireless N support
  • Slow web browsing
  • especially over BIS

BlackBerry Bold 9780

Tweet Research In Motion (RIM) hasn't taken a step in a Bold (excuse the pun) new direction with the new 9780. Instead the Canadian smartphone manufacturer has enhanced what was good with the old Bold 9700 and addressed its issues.
Pros:
  • New OS is a lot better to use than the one on the previous Bold
  • better performance and camera
Cons:
  • Not many changes in terms of hardware and virtually identical styling to the old model
  • no FM radio
  • no touch-screen

Blackberry 9780

The key question here is it worth moving from BB 9700 to BB 9780? My personal answer will be a resounding "yes". I like an improved camera and the black body. Despite certain reservations I became a fan of the new OS.

The latest good looking and the fastest BlackBerry available today for the modern businessman. The best thing about BlackBerry devices is that they are like a pair of Russian Matryoshka dolls, where the bigger toy houses a smaller one inside.
Pros:
  • Performance
  • 624 Mhz processor
Cons:
  • No front facing camera
  • Apps don't work without BlackBerry data plans
