Would it be fair to say that if the Blackberry Bold 9000 Phone really works, you will be excited about them.
Well, here's what one of the 48 reviews at Amazon has to say about Blackberry Bold 9000 Phone:
7 of 8 people found the following review helpful:
Needs a 4.5 star option., As far as the phone goes, calls have all been clear, on UMA (this rocks btw), on edge, on bluetooth, and on speaker phone, works great as a phone! clear on both ends.
I text alot, comming from a non qwerty phone, this one was easy to adapt too, I have normal hands I guess, if you bite your nails you may have issues. Ive tried the G1 and while the keys are more spread out, I felt this phone was more comfortable to type with.
Emails are awesome, I set up my work OWA, hotmail, gmail, yahoo, and they all work like a champ and notify me when I have new emails. Pretty easy set up as well. on BIS
Cam is awesome 3.2meg, descent colors for a camera, and a flash. Also has a video cam... not so great resolution, but just ok for MMS, or you tube quality. I have only used mine as a flashlight with the one touch button on the left side and that is super nice to hit that button and the bright LED comes on to light up whatever you need.
as a pda with the contacts and dates and calanders, all work very well and reminders all work well.
Contact list has tons of space to put in everything about the contacts
It also has a normal size headphone jack, and not the tiny one.
I would have loved to have the normal USB jack and I see alot of people are complaining about that... for me if I needed too, I could google 'micro usb to mini usb adaptor' And see that for a few bucks I can get some adaptors and not have a problem with that.
And of course e bay has tons of chargers, car/desk/usb and screen protectors and cases... all for pretty cheap.
And onto browsing... not something I like to do on any phone, because the screen is to small, I looked at the iphone, and g1, and storm, and none of them I could see myself browsing the internet with, its just not easy to read. However apps that have BB adjusted web pages are nice to scroll around, facebook, and myspace, and youtube, viigio, crackberry of course, are easy to navigate.
The Apps store is a nice place to get alot of free apps, weather included. I use weathereye and it pushes data to the phone and is free, there are lots of them... Since I am coming from Verizon, all this free apps is totally foreign to me hehe.
For themes I found plenty(free) after googleing for under 5 min, and I could also make my own with a free bb theme creator.
GPS, and maps. work well and update fast. This is the only time I noticed 3G being an issue, is that the maps did not update as fast as I was driveing.
I have had no issues with the track ball, and Ive played alot of brick breaker.
I hear alot about battery pulls with BB's I have yet to do this. and I have upgraded my OS last night to v 4.6.1.231 and that was fun, everything seems a little bit snappier.
something else I dont like is the memory card slot. With finger nails and all It was a pain to get the worthless 256m card out, Luckily its not something you need to swap since with the usb cable you can plug it into the PC and see the drive.
Battery life I dont have a problem with, it seems to have no problems holding a charge with a full days use.
Overall I think this phone is a keeper, Ive had no problems with T-mob even after I returned the G1 after a day. I have not had a dropped call, or been out of a service area yet
