 My Tour Review!! Read!
Hello Crackberry Nation,
Im KTaNnEr6, I am new here, in fact this is my first post, but I have been browsing crackberry for about 6 months or so. I joined now because I just got my first Blackberry, the TOUR! This is going to my official introduce/review.
Ok, so my first thoughts on Tour;
First thing I notice is how quality the build feels. Very Sturdy. The weight is great compared to other phones I've had. Screen Resolution is amazing but the actual screen size is a little smaller than what I expected, but I dont really know what I expected. Keyboard is good. Taking some time to get used to since I have some big fingers. Honestly though I think the beveled corners on the keys actually slow me down. Just the way I feel. Have very very little movement in my battery cover. Never noticed it til I read a post about it. No screen ripple either. Overall the phone looks GREAT. Very Sleek. Love the black trackball and black chrome.
Getting into the phone the OS is very quick. I love the blackberry experience, definently addicted. Havent had any issues at all with it. I did adjust the horizontal trackball sensitvity to 90 which help with the slow reaction on that. It hasnt lagged at all yet, also havent had to do a battery pull. I enjoy having the ability to download apps. Still trying to learn everything about the blackberry, but from what I have seen its awesome. Also still trying to learn the tips and tricks but have found a few, kind of. When I downloaded the facebook app (which isnt that great but does the job) all my friends birthdays were automatically upload to the calender on my Berry. I thought that was cool. I also have found out that when using the stock case, when you put it in the magnet puts the phone in stand by to save battery life. Speaking of that, the battery life is GREAT, no issues at all, but I am NOT a heavy heavy user, I do use it alot but not constant. Also I also found that if you get a message, or notification, or whatever on your phone while its in the stock holster when you pull it out of the holster it automaticaly shows you that message, or notification, or whatever, which I think is AMAZING and saves alot of time.
Overall I LOVE the phone. It is the best phone on market for Verizon. I STILL would like to have the Iphone but I would never leave verizon for a phone unless it folded my clothes for me. As far as having no WIFI, it is not a problem for me BUT, still would be nice since I am not always in 3G coverage. Still trying to Learn so if anyone can help me with any more tips and tricks I would love to hear them. You can message me on BBM, since I have never used it! lol so do it! Pin is 30B3525B. Also does anyone know how to "sync" excel on my berry and pc? Where if one is updated the other updates when plugged in?
Anyways, thanks for reading, I am looking forward to being an active member for the Crakcberry Community.
