BlackBerry Bold Review
It's large, but it still manages to maintain a great look and feel. The half VGA screen simply sparkles on board the matt black body with chrome bumpers and leatherette upholstery.
RIM has improved the user interface by having bolder menu icons, and the manufacturer has maintained the excellent BlackBerry trackball.
The Bold is the first BlackBerry device to feature HSDPA internet speeds, and also boasts A-GPS, Wi-Fi and a full QWERTY keyboard.
Surfing the net on either HSDPA or Wi-Fi proves to be a nippy experience, and RIM has upheld its tradition of producing excellent messaging devices. The two-megapixel camera is disappointing, although all your navigating needs are met with the on-board A-GPS.
An average talktime of 300 minutes and 310 hours' standby.
Pros: The BlackBerry Bold boasts a fabulous feature set, including HSDPA and A-GPS.
Cons: It’s not exactly pocket friendly.

Verdict: It’s big but it’s also extremely clever.
