A step down from the curve

Having had this phone for just over a year, I can safely say that I'm counting down the days until I can end the Blackberry Torch torture and move on. Having had a blackberry curve before, which I enjoyed, found very easy to use and navigate, I chose to remain with them instead of jump ship to...

The left side of the device has the micro USB connector while the top has a lock switch which is hard enough to not accidentally unlock the device. On the right side you have a 3.5mm audio jack, volume rockers with a mute switch in the middle and a convenience key towards the bottom.

BlackBerry Torch 9860 review

It's taken a ridiculously long time to come, but this is it. This is the one. After the clickable screen of the BlackBerry Storm 2 and the touchscreen-with-slide-out-keyboard shenanigans of the original BlackBerry Torch , RIM has finally released a proper touchscreen smartphone.

BlackBerry Torch 9860 Review by 3G.co.uk

Who would have thought it – a BlackBerry device made for multimedia, and that has no QWERTY keyboard? Surely not. But wait, there's more – it also has a ‘Liquid Graphics' display. What is going on?
Cons:
  • Inaccurate onscreen keyboard
  • touch-display and keys don't work so well together
  • few entertainment apps

BlackBerry Torch 9860 in-depth review -

A BlackBerry for multimedia? No QWERTY keyboard? Something called a Liquid Graphics screen? Stop, please, you're blowing our minds. The BlackBerry Torch 9860 is one of the flagship phones for the new BlackBerry 7 OS, and RIM's third-ever full-touch handset.
Pros:
  • Incredibly quick browser
  • fast general navigation
  • powerful email and calendar features with excellent universal inbox
  • best Facebook app on any platform
Cons:
  • Responsive touch-screen let down by inaccurate keyboard
  • lack of entertainment apps would disappoint those after less business-centric phone
  • imperfect marriage of touch-screen and buttons would disappoint a business user

  • Great sound quality
  • Capable video player
Cons:
  • Expensive
  • OS needs polishing
  • Limited number of apps
  • Display prone to scratches
  • BlackBerry Internet Service required
  • Limited operator availability

BlackBerry Torch 9860 Review

BlackBerry may have had a bit of a set back lately with the whole "outage" issue but that hasn't really stopped them from pushing the sales of their new products. One of the latest devices to make it out of the Canadian manufacturer's domain is the totally-touchscreen enabled BlackBerry Torch 9860.
