BlackBerry Bold 9780: Not So Bold
You'll notice this review is shorter than our usual smartphone reviews. The reason, as I've already mentioned a couple of times in the article, is quite simple: the Bold 9780 brings absolutely nothing new to the table in terms of hardware, and even the core software is more than half a year old.

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 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

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.

RIM's latest BlackBerry Bold offers an upgrade rather than a revolution. The BlackBerry Bold 9780 looks identical to its predecessor, but features more memory and the new BlackBerry 6 OS. A refreshed home screen, various software enhancements and a better Web browser are improvements.
Pros:
- BlackBerry 6 OS
- More RAM than predecessor
- Best-in-class keyboard and e-mail
Cons:
- Browser much improved but still inferior to iPhone/Android
- BlackBerry 6 OS better suited to touchscreen navigation
- Less apps than competitors

BlackBerry Bold 9780 review
Near the end of last year, we kept our fingers crossed in the hopes of spotting the third iteration of the BlackBerry Bold series, the BlackBerry Bold 9780. Fortunately, the unit came into retail availability within December, barely making 2010.

A complete waste of money. Feel only paid for a 'name'. My little cheap phone did nearly as much, & I could send photos free, not have to pay £5 a month for the pleasure! There was no mention on the Box that this was an obligatory tariff payment! Be sure this is my last Blackberry purchase!

BlackBerry Bold 9780
BlackBerry still seems to be finding its way in this ever consumer-centric, touchscreen-dominated smartphone world, with its latest touchscreen option, the Torch , getting a mediocre response and the company recently slipping out of the top five smartphone manufacturers worldwide.
Pros:
- Great qwerty keyboard
- Sharp
- colourful screen
- Excellent call quality and battery life
- Class leading messaging interface
- Web browser much improved
Cons:
- Small screen
- Feels like it needs a touchscreen
- Keyboard still favours small fingers
- App store is limited
