REVIEW: BlackBerry Torch 9800 smartphone
When I read that the AT&T version of the BlackBerry Torch 9800 was getting less than favorable reviews, I wasn't all that surprised. RIM has come up short in several areas, but it manages to survive because of its increased security and close corporate contacts.

Presenting a review of the BlackBerry Torch 9800 for AT&T When you think of BlackBerry the first thought that comes to your mind is either email or full qwerty keyboard. The last thing that users think about is touch screen and user interface.

Torch will keep BlackBerry fans happy and satisfied despite a few flaws. When Research In Motion (RIM) launched its first touchscreen phone, Storm, it was not appreciated much by BlackBerry fans. Storm didn't feel like a BlackBerry phone due to its touchscreen.
Pros:

- Capacitive touch screen
- Voice clarity
- Excellent battery life
- Comfortable QWERTY keypad
Cons:
- Ageing processor
- 4GB on board memory

BlackBerry Torch 9800 Review
When the arrival of the BlackBerry Torch 9800 came knocking, I was pretty much psyched to see if this snazzy new BlackBerry with its Palm Pre form factor ...
Pros:
- Solid construction
- Staple Blackberry features like keyboard, email, call quality, and battery life are still intact
- Found the option of having a tangible keyboard and onscreen one extremely useful as well as sanity pleasing.
Cons:
- Poor camera and video quality
- Display (sigh) is old school
- Device tends to lag at times when processing websites or switching in between tasks
