    Default Battery life vs 9700

    I have been using a Bold 9700 for the last couple of years - which is now coming to the end of its life. I was wondering what the battery life was like compared to the Bold 9700. One of the main attractions of the Bold is it's battery life so I was wondering whether the battery life of the 9360 is.comparable?

    I came from a Bold 9700 and I can say no the 9360's battery life is not comparable. I have to charge every day, approx every 6-8 hours. Still, I like my Curve. OS 7.1 is faster, and offers better integrated/native apps than OS5. Browser is mighty improved and boot times are a third of 9700. Also the 9360 is lighter than 9700 and is more comfortable to carry in shirt/pants pocket.

    Agree, I had a 9700 too. The battery life is not comparable. Since the battery is much smaller. But i still like the Curve for the reasons mentioned above by wolfdale. The 9360 is very pocketable, i can barely feel it in my pocket. If battery life is a concern but you still want to get a OS 7 device, you can go for the 9320. It has a 1450mah battery. Though the camera is only 3.2 mp non-autofocus, the resolution of the screen is lower, there's no NFC. Its up to your wants and needs.

    9700 hands down.
    BlackBerry is my phone of choice. No other phone gives me the same experience that BlackBerry does .
