RIM has taken a step forward with its new Blackberry Torch. Its screen, hardware and software offerings pale in comparison to the Apple iPhone, HTC Desire, or Samsung Galaxy S, but those who own and use a Blackberry will definitely love this new handset for its new operating system and dual input...
Pros:
- : Build
- Responsive touchscreen and slide out QWERTY
- Great new interface
- Email, social networking, and messaging capabilities
- Universal search and great customisation
- Organised menus
- Clean browser with pinch and zoom functions
- Great multimedia interface
- Wi-fi, Bluetooth and GPS onboard
- Great
Cons:
- : There were times when we didn't know whether to use the touchscreen or the physical keys
- Processor a bit slow and causes slowdowns
- Webpage rendering also a bit slow
- Screen resolution

Pretty Phone and Pretty Good Phone
This is my first blackberry after coming off the G1 from TMobile and I love it. The phone is physically prettier than either the G1 or the G2. The touchscreen is responsive, but not overly so. The touchpad is also better than the trackball on the G1.
Pros:
- Attractive Design
- Great Battery Life
- QWERTY Keypad
Cons:
- Small Buttons

RIM BlackBerry Torch 9800 review
The keyboard may be smaller than other BlackBerrys', but the Torch's great screen and updated OS make it the best BlackBerry yet.

BlackBerry Torch
I t has been some time since we have reviewed a BlackBerry smartphone, and since then a lot has changed. The enormous advance of BlackBerry on the consumer market and a few attractive new cell phones have done the brand good.

A good interactive touchscreen phone. I upgraded from the Blackberry Bold to the Torch. Love the touch screen and improved camera, but personally prefer the Bold format, and not so keen on the slide format of the Torch.

BlackBerry Torch 9800 in-depth review -
RIM has one of the most loyal fan bases of all the major manufacturers. With most BlackBerry users you'll have more chance of getting them to pull out their own teeth than swapping to something different.
Pros:
- The five-megapixel camera is the best snapper to appear on a blackberry device
- with the flash in particular impressing
Cons:
- The BlackBerry Torch is a heavy device and we weren?t enamoured with the overall design

Good Phone
Good phone. Connects good to my email accounts and syncs fine with computers. Works great with documents to go. Worked good with Treadit pedeometer apt for a while but now can't get it to register. Desk top software is incredibly slow.
Pros:
- A lot of great features including keyboard
Cons:
- Online support is bad

Very good phone for calls, email and organising
As you would expect from a Blackberry it works very well with any email accounts, all are very easy to set up and work straight away. The touch screen is capacative supporting multi touch and works well, much better than the Storm and the pull out qwerty key pad is almost as good as on the Bold.

Come On Baby, Light My Fire!
Blackberries are ubiquitous, but until recently they haven’t been nearly as web or media frien
Pros:
- Excellent form, function and quality. The touch screen experience far exceeds the old "
- trackball"
- days
Cons:
- A slow processor and lackluster screen

Its ok.
Actually, I bought this phone for my niece to use in the caribbean. She needed an upgrade and decided on the black berry torch. Its been a good but so far except for the the earphone, it doesn't work. She has tried multiple earpieces, seems there's a problem with that hole.
