A Blackberry Virgin's Bold First Impressions
Bought my bold today on orange from oxford street. Phones4U only had one delivered today (I had my name on it from yesterday) and I felt like a minor celeb leaving the store!
Now I've come from a HTC TyTNII and wasn't sure what all the blackberry fuss was all about b
ut I was owed a work phone...
...It's awesome.
Screen - like looking at a mini compiter screen. Incredibly bright and hardly any glare in sunlight (all half an hour of it there was today)
Ease of setting up email, wifi etc. - couldn't be simpler. A pleasure to set up.
Camera - Wasn,t expecting much but it's great! Got some really clear inside, action pub shots tonight
Internet - not mind-blowingly quick but quick enough. Wi fi speeds it up.
Rollerball - WOW! Perfect (veterans please excuse my excitement over this). One of the things that must make these devices so addictive. So quick to get around screens/menus
Keyboard - you can feel every key and typing feels as natural as on a keyboard. I don't like touchscreens personally so this is perfect.
Well, I'm convinced after only 6 hours with it. Compared with the Kaiser, it's slicker It feels less like I have a computer in my pocket, it feels better than that. It's visually stunning and even feels great on the ear! So my advice to any other BB noobs out there is that you won't be disappointed
One question - will apps for other blackberry models work on the bold? Or do I have to wait for specific apps for the phone to appear in time?.
