Just when you think RIM has gone quiet over the buzz of touchscreen phones and its multiple nemesis’ takeover of the smartphone segment’s market share, they bounce back with the Blackberry unit everyone has been waiting for!
The slated in-store availability is on the 15th of September but the rumours are confirmed here. The new BlackBerry® Bold™ 9900 has finally reached our shores. Said to be the thinnest BlackBerry® smartphone yet (at only 10.5mm), the BlackBerry® Bold™ 9900 will run on a new technology that will enable exciting capabilities.
It will be the first of the Bold™ range to offer both a high performance keyboard and touch display integrated within its iconic design, which will sit in a brushed, stainless steel frame. It boasts a lustrous exterior and a high-gloss, glass-weave backplate (where its 5MP camera with 720p HD recording is located!). The keyboard, we know we already love, for its amazing effectiveness, look, and feel. But the brilliant touch display, we think, is going to impress the socks off your feet!
Also, the smartphones will run on the much anticipated Blackberry® 7 operating system, which includes a next generation Blackberry® browser with a significantly faster, more fluid web browsing experience. The BlackBerry® Bold™ 9900 promises to deliver better browsing results that are up to 40% faster than any of its Blackberry® 6 based smartphones, and a whopping 100% faster than the BlackBerry® 5 based smartphones. And yes, it has prettier icons too!
Watch:
Inspired by millions of customers around the world who want a combination of performance, functionality and style, the exceptional smartphone is designed to deliver the ultimate in communication, multimedia, and productivity for Blackberry lovers around the world. The experience? It all begins with a touch.
