BlackBerry Bold 9700 Unlocked GSM 3G World Phone w/ Full Keyboard - Black

This phone is great for someone like me who needs to switch sim cards while traveling. It works everywhere and I get my email wherever I am. The screen is not too big, but not too small and vibrant. At first I didn't like the new trackball, but after a week of using it, it is so much better than the old trackball that would get stuck, and not point where you wanted.The biggest drawback is setup. You have to get the blackberry service in some country first. The old blackberry's would let you just have internet and run everything from that. Now you have to get the BB internet service from a provider for the Gmail and other email accounts come up. This can be expensive, but the service is great when you have it.All in all, I would recommend this to anyone who can use a smartphone to simplify their life. It never stops and needs a restart like windows machines, and offers better security than droid.

Excellent phone. A fusion of my old 8900 and a Bold 9000!Pros:Size (Almost as small as the 8900)Fast 3G phoneVoice qualityClassy design (a beauty!)Fast and responsive OSMore internal memory for programsBattery life is WoW!!! (incredible! best in a blackberry!)Screen is awsome! (colors and res)Camera is excellent (although no improvement here from 8900, but big improvement from BOLD 9000)Cons:Keyboard take some time to get use to. But once you get use to the keyboard you'll feel right at home

What I can say about a Blackberry, it's just perfect.just opened the box, plugged the battery and the sim card and it started to work.After few wizard screens I could make some calls and browse the web.It's very easy to setup an e-mail account.This phone is unlocked, so I just inserted my sim card and worked fine.The quality of the voice are fantastic! and the keyboard is designed in a way that your fingers can hit the correct key, making your type better and faster. It's amazing the way that your thumb fits the letters.The cam can take nice pics, but it's just 3mp , if you are a maniac for pics, I would recommend another smartphone/BB model with 5mp or higher (if exists).The screen has a nice quality.I tottaly recommend this cell.

I bought the phone as a gift. The phone itself is ok. The new touch pad is nice. However, the phone I recieved had an opened box and it looked like the phone had been removed from the box previously. The quick start guide was missing. I had bought a new phone and had hoped that Amazon would send a NEW one. Shipping an open item when a new one is bought is not somthing I had expected from Amazon.

It's my first Blackberry and I was a little afraid about some bad reviews... but this BB works for me wonderfully. I love the keypad, the screen is nice and after some days getting used to the BB world, I'm totally addict. I don't use it for work, only to get in touch via BBM with my friends all over the worlds as I don't leave in my country, and it is perfect for me. The applications work fast, the battery last a good 2 days if I use the phone a lot, and 3 days if not.I don't know how I was living without it before ;-)

First off, I love BlackBerry. Wife and Kids use iPhone, not me. I need my BB. Anyway, the phone came in a BB box with a manual and a charger and looks like it was never used. Beautiful phone. Absolutely lovely. Battery was completely toast. wouldn't charge, phone wouldn't power up. After 3 days ordered a new battery. This is OK with me, the quality of the used phone more than made up for this detail, and hey, now I have a new battery! I have been using Curve models with the trackball for years. This is my first Bold. Screen is nice. bright and clear. WiFi works ok. The thing is the keyboard. The keys are all stuck together, where as in the Curve they were spaced apart. See photo. Curve is red, Bold is Black. I'll try and get used to it by with my fat fingers it is hard to type on this Bold.
