A blackberry breakthrough

Jun 2, 2009

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Excellent interface, easy to use, bright screen, very up-to-date appeal, great features
Cons: Need to shed some weight
Opinion:
The storm is something I have long been waiting for. The conventional QWERTY keyboards found on earlier models have been putting off my purchase of a blackberry on hold for a very long time. The Suretype interface is definitely a commendable effort of the RIM team. Well again, it's a matter of personal preference. Bottom line is to go for what you like. No regrets.

The world is in your hand

May 19, 2009

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Huge screen, touch screen/surepress, excellent connectivity
Cons: no wi-fi, confusing for some people, not for people with big fingers
Opinion:
Great phone or should I say 'communicator' since I use it more on e-mails/browsing the internet. Once you are used to it, you would find things are handy with this device. You would certainly feel that you are connected wherever you are. Few things that stop me from giving 9 or even more on my rating: Menu is quite complicated, even to simply personalising the phone, you would have to go to different items on the menu. My old man would go for Nokia definitely, saying the phone is way complicated. For people whose fingers look like 'all thumbs'. Well.. big ones, I mean. Forget the qwerty keypad, it would only frustrate you..

great device but not prefect

Apr 8, 2009

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Huge screen, stable fast hardware, its a RIM BB!
Cons: OS, mobile provider BIS services have to be good
Opinion:
got mine from vodafone, and upgraded the OS with a much stable and fast version will do the trick to work like a great device. its not prefect and of course with rooms for improvement but love the BB experiences after ditching WM6.1 devices. Storm screen is sweet and its enjoyable to watch movie on a portable usage. cant blame RIM to push out state of the art technology fast without fine tuning the OS. but it same goes for all devices out in the market. and its the first time i enjoyed surfing the net on a portable device.
