BlackBerry Bold 9900
RIM produce several superb BlackBerry mobile handsets with the Bold range of models sitting proudly at the very top. Recently we saw the new flagship Bold 9900 model introduced and this has now been joined by a slightly lower specification sibling in the shape of the Bold 9790. We take a look at these two exciting models and see how they differ from one another.
Being two of the leading models in the BlackBerry portfolio means that these models offer impressive chipsets that help them achieve very impressive performance speeds. The Bold 9900 is the most powerful device in the line up and sports a 1.2Ghz processor that is coupled with a hefty 768MB of RAM memory. This power combined with the improved power management offered by the BlackBerry 7.0 operating system makes this the speediest BlackBerry we have ever used. The new Bold 9790 uses the same RAM memory as the 9900 but comes fitted with a slightly smaller 1Ghz processor. Despite not being as fast as its big brother the 9790 still impresses with its general speed in all areas including multitasking. When it comes to browsing the internet on these models both phones offer identical connectivity options to help ensure that there is always a connection available regardless of your location. All three recognised speeds of WiFi are supported by the phones and both can connect to a 3G network if you are on the move or have no access to a WiFi network. Even in the absence of 3G the models both sport EDGE and GPRS connections which offer great data transfer speeds.

The BlackBerry Bold 9900 uses the higher quality screen of the two devices. The 640 x 480 resolution display measures 2.8 inches and is the best BlackBerry screen that we have ever encountered. Thanks to the high resolution the phone is capable of showing a pixel density of 286 per inch which puts the model in a similar category to phones like the iPhone 4S and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus in this area. The Bold 9790 makes use of a smaller 2.45 inch screen with a lower resolution of 480 x 360 pixels which enables the model to display a respectable 245 pixels per inch. Both of the two screens are capacitive displays which means that users can navigate either directly on the screen itself or by using the optical trackpad which is located just beneath. This dual functionality is superb as on screen navigation is great for some tasks such as web browsing but more precise jobs such as editing documents benefit from the inclusion of the optical trackpad.
The BlackBerry Bold 9900 and 9790 are two leading handsets in the range and it is clear to see why. The high quality screens are both impressive while both models offer powerful chipsets that make them the fastest BlackBerry devices ever released.

RIM’s past handsets such as the 9780 was a dependable handheld mobile device. However, it could never join the ranks of phones running the Apple iOS or the Android OS. Why is this? Blackberries were known for sporting their trademark QWERTY keyboards. However, they came equipped with processors clocked under 1 GHz. The phone mentioned above only comes with a 624 MHz processor. Today, RIM plans to change this. The Blackberry Bold 9900 comes with a CPU that is up to par with today’s standards.
This new RIM handset offers processing power never before seen in its past models. It comes packed with a 1.2 GHz QC 8655 single-core processor. It has bumped up its predecessor’s CPU by a hundred percent. This will allow the handset’s users to enjoy more from power and performance that they have never experienced in older models. This equates to applications more efficiently. It also means that you can multi-task seamlessly from app to app. You can now run multiple applications at simultaneously.
Aside from a more powerful workhorse, the phone also comes with a more capable camera. It does come with a camera with the same 5 megapixel count just like its predecessor. However, it will now allow you to record videos in 720p or high-definition. This was previously unavailable in past versions. (more…)

BlackBerry 8900
Smaller than the Bold, but the packaging for many features, the BlackBerry Curve 8900 is one of our favorite all-time BlackBerries. The ideal is of medium size, with a QWERTY keyboard and a bright, high resolution, it is an almost perfect device for mobile email. Other key features include a 3 megapixel camera with autofocus, video camera, a music player, GPS, a large capacity battery, Wi-Fi, and plenty of memory. The only important thing missing is 3G.
The BlackBerry 8900 is the latest BlackBerry Curve series, and is one of the best ever BlackBerries. Its name suggests that the grooves of the BlackBerry range just below the BlackBerry Bold, but despite its lack of 3G, its still a bit better than the Bold.
Like others in the series Curve, the 8900 has a full QWERTY keyboard 35-key keyboard with trackball. It looks almost identical to the Bold, except it is smaller and lighter, which on the same weight as many standard phones, and compact enough to fit easily into a jacket pocket or even in the jeans pocket . This fact alone device becomes more common for age curves or bold.
Before beginning our analysis, let’s take a moment to admire the ergonomics and the construction of 8900. Unboxing the 8900, you can not help but admire the quality of construction of the device – it just feels so solid and well built. Unlike many phones, taking the back to insert the SIM card and battery is so easy. The keys are really small, but they move crisply and anyone with fingers on the normal size range for Homo Sapiens should have no problem with them at all. You can even use it without help. The scroll wheel is the same as with previous blackberries – some love it, others are less enthusiastic. We’re not 100% in favor of the scroll wheel, but does the job. (more…)
