BlackBerry Bold 9700 – the most powerful smartphone from Blackberry
December 28, 2009 by: Dennis Hager
The RIM BlackBerry Bold 9700 features a sleeker design than its predecessor and adds a 3.5mm headphone jack, a responsive optical trackpad, and an extra-sharp display. The smartphone is fast and offers the full range of wireless options and robust messaging capabilities.
Though Web browsing is not its forte, the RIM BlackBerry Bold 9700 is one of the most powerful and best messaging smartphones in AT&T’s lineup.
Anyone coming from the original BlackBerry Bold will immediately notice the design changes on the RIM BlackBerry Bold 9700. Sleeker and sexier, RIM did a really nice job of making the smartphone smaller without sacrificing too much in usability. Plus, you get the new optical trackpad, some minor user interface enhancements, and an extra-sharp, 480×360-pixel resolution display.
