One of the best phones I've ever had.

rassouli5 has owned it for more than one year before publishing this review

I've never seen a camera on a phone as good as this one, despite it's 2MP, but the quality is astonishing. The build quality is very good but the material of the front door of the phone will get damaged in time.

Love it but...

pravinthaa has owned it for more than one year before publishing this review

love this phone and i would reccomend it to anyone who texts/emails a lot because the keyboard is amazing!! It does lag but not to the point that it becomes a huge nuisance and also you have to be careful with the battery, if you have a lot of apps running the battery will drain insanely fast!! overall, it is a great phone :)

Battery 8/10 you have to really manage your applications, make sure your exit things you are not using ,because the device is good at multi-tasking so you may not realize it but you may have ten or more applications running and obviously this will drain your battery, so you have to be careful or you will have a dead phone.

Pros

• amazing keyboard
• emails are effortless
• durable phone
• excellent call quality
• always have reception
• excellent video quality
• great UI
• good for multi-tasking

Cons

• no front facing camera
• no auto-focus on camera
• image quality is not very good
• can lag
• battery can drain quickly if not careful
• not a lot of selection in app world

dissapointed

jalobac has owned it for less than year before publishing this review

Unfortunatelly, this is the worst BB I ever had. First of all they did not have enought technology and skills to create a good battery. Created for business? NO WAY ! If reely I use it, at 15.00 I have 0% battery left.

It is scrooling the text and image, without touching it.

It is turning off just touching the middle key (under the display).


Conclusion, worst expensive gadget that I ever had!

Love my Bold 9900!

t2859 has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

I had been waiting for a while for RIM to launch an updated version of the 0ld 9900, which I really liked, so I was very happy with the announcement.

I really like the new bold. The Keyboard is great, it feels really good to type. Also love the touch screen, it's so responsive, pinch to zoom works great and the size is so good for viewing email and watching videos.

The resolution is really good, detailed and clear.

The speakers are loud and it has a lot of memory for storing songs and videos.

Even though the Camera is also 5 mp the pictures don't turn out as well, so there's a downgrade on that department.

Overall this is a great phone. I recommend it.

BOLD 9900

I really like the keyboard and the improved browser along with the bigger screen to read email attachments. Really nice upgrade from my 9700
I would recommend to the business user. I practically live on my phone so it is very important to have a good, reliable phone that will last

On first glance ... it feels fantastic

geotr has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

This device feels fantastic in the hand, it is a bit large but the large keys of the keyboard make it a cinch to type. Feels great and very fast. Impressive and my next phone. I am an android person but this phone just blew me away with the keyboard and feel.
