9 hours at Magic Kingdom and I saw 2 BlackBerry devices. Both OS6 devices.

Everyone else seemed to have iPhones.

My cousins had: One Thunderbolt and one iP4. The Bolt was dead after 6 hours. The iP4 lasted the entire time. My BlackBerry OS6 lasted all day with 60% left.

I can't believe how many people were staring at their phones! Yeah, my BlackBerry didn't have the Disney app. But I used the paper map and I had a better time NOT staring at my phone.

That's why I'm liking my BlackBerry again. I don't want to be all involved in my phone anymore.

The Android device was checking into Foursquare all day, til it died. Seemed neat but I really don t care what random people are doing.

So, that's my Magic Kingdom story.

Oh and the Bolt screen was useless in the sun. My BlackBerry was clear and I was happy I had a keyboard when I did did use it.



Merry Christmas from Magic Kingdom!

Hope the 9790 performs the same as 9780 in terms of battery life.

[Chrisy]

I hope BlackBerry continues to make battery life a priority. It didn't concern me before but it does now.

I don't want to have to hunt for a place to charge.


I didn't even bring my charger with me to my relatives house. It lasted a day and a half!

The brightness problem with the screen is something that i have noticed with all 3 android phones. I havent had a chance to get a new 9850 in sunlight to compare but generally my storm 1/2 were OK. I guess its the price you pay for new screen tech lol

[Chrisy]

I think the screen brightness is only an issue with the Thunderbolt. That's what I've heard.

I loved my Bolt, but for spending a few days away and traveling and doing things, I love my BlackBerry. I didn't have to stress about it dying.

Also, the iPhone didn't seem to have any good audible turn by turn? Are there any?

We used BlackBerry Traffic and VZ Nav!

[llllBULLSEYE]

Yeah people are too into their phones not enjoying the actual scenery.
Jealous man that seems like a perfect place to be at for Christmas.

Yes, there is. Navigon.
It works superbly and I rely on it when I drive into unknown towns and places.
