If you're not - it's a waste of money. Any other phone in this price class has a glass screen (plastic? really RIM?); a front facing camera no BB has this; at least 8 gigs of application storage (256 megs after OS load is a joke; WIFI hot spot.... In fact there are so many devices in this price range that have dual core CPU's and 4G that one wonders how much the profit margin is on this phone. Compare this to the 9900 - a really nice glass screen (though tiny) aluminum band around the midlle. The raised plastic buttons make this thing as ugly as sin.As for software. It's blackberry 5.0 + 2. Nothing really new or creative here. The web browsing is better and almost on par with the other platforms. But there will be NO THEMES for OS7, the new hardware broke the theme studio and it can not be fixed. There will be no upgrade to BBX -which will be out in less than a year, and as such...

Fast renponsive, slim and light, ful capacitive for apps and files, pics, music, and others. Yes, plastic screen but that makes him lighter and equaly sensitive. It pair with 3G and wifi rapidly and efficently, fast browser with several tabs, video looks great and records in HD, best pictures ever taken with a phone and fast shot as well. If you're used to BB it's a must have, just get used to the full touch keyboard and that's it.  Great phone but they lied about the battery, By The laughing fox (London) - See all my reviews This review is from: BlackBerry Torch 9860 RDQ71UW Unlocked Smartphone with 3G, BlackBerry OS 7, 5 MP Camera, and 4 GB Internal Memory--No Warranty (Grey) (Wireless Phone Accessory) One star for a great phone? Harsh, but I think it is a disgrace that Blackberry can lie so blatantly on their published phone specifications about their battery life. .....They quote 15 days standby time: it's about 15 HOURS .....They quote 6.5hrs talktime: you might get an hour. .....Normal use, with screen permanently dimmed, wifi and blutooth switched off, GPS switched off, all apps closed, 50 min talk time, is half a day (longer if you don't actually use it). Others who are familiar with smartphones probably won't be surprised. I haven't had a smartphone before, I trusted the specifications. I was conned. How can they get away with lying on their spec sheets? What do we believe if we can't believe the spec sheets? One star is punishment for lying. Other than that it's a great phone. Probably 4 stars. I wouldn't have been so angry if they'd said up front that's what the battery life was. Why don't they instigate something like the standard... Read more |
