The BlackBerry Bold 9700 is the smartest BlackBerry to date. The BlackBerry Bold 9700 is the best RIM has to offer, with the most tech crammed into any in the BlackBerry range, a quality feel and nicely tactile QWERTY keyboard.
It’s a top-drawer messaging device. From the simple email set up to integrated multiple IM clients – Windows Live Messenger, Google Talk et al – and the single, streamlined inbox, it's an obsessive chatterer's dream come true.
The QWERTY keypad is superb, great for emailing on the hoof, while battery life is better than average, giving you about a day and a half of frequent emailing. In addition to the headline features, you get a rather average 3.2-meg camera with flash, fast HSDPA browsing – this also helps with email attachments and of course you also get A-GPS with BlackBerry Maps and Wi-Fi.
Onboard memory is only 256MB, but there's a microSD slot and the 9700 ships with a 2GB card. The 9700 runs the well-rounded BlackBerry 5.0 OS, which integrates messaging, phone and app functions so well that you won't even know you're multi-tasking.
The BlackBerry App World is under-stocked when compared to Apple's huge, ever-growing App Store, but the apps here do at least favor worth over time wasting. The Bold 9700 is not the best all-round smartphone and anyone looking for multimedia features should go elsewhere.
