BlackBerry Bold 9930 Review Part 2

[aarondevante895]

I think this phone is better than android and I currently have an android phone. Windows Phone and Blackberry stepping it up

[kee93iLy]

this phone is perfect for me, i don't really care for apps to much anyway. I think im getting it !

[AwwC00L]

i want to get this phone it looks awsome but im scared to switch from android

[Armandos82]

I still don't get, on a device that's 10.5mm thick, they couldn't put auto-focus.

[bubbasofunny]

Make it thicker *

[bubbasofunny]

Ok, they say that adding auto focus will make it thinner , but the iphone is thinner than that and still has the auto focus included

[maxamador10]

fuck, i really want this phoneee :(

[billybjohnston570]

i am going to be getting this phone not sure if i am going to like it..... i wish verizon had a blackberry torch like atnt has....

[wtfallnamestaken]

@billybjohnston570 torch is bad. The Bold is sooo much better than the torch.

[greennick98]

get it for a penny on amazon mobile!

[doglover549]

my blackberry 9650 sucked so bad it was way to glitchy

[TheUday99]

i sometimes get random boners in class

[mpd1015]

what's the difference between 9900 and 9930??

[RAMeReviews]

@mpd1015 9930 is verizon, 9900 is tmobile 4g

[luggage12345]

Did Verizon or RIm smoked crack when they priced this thing?

[heyho007]

You want to know why the Blackberry bold 9930 is so worth the money ?... It is not made in China or taiwan like the IPhone. They are all either made in Canada, Mexico or Hungary. They used to even be made in Germany. I am not surprised I had a blackberry for a very long period without any issues. I had my IPhone 4s broken in 3 months, i slightly dropped it in the bus.

[kobe4rings]

@heyho007 yeah right considering the iphone4s is less than a month old. you broke it in 3 months.. bullshit

[heyho007]

@heyho007 Thanks for finding that mistake. It was my bad, it was not a 4s, it was an IPhone 4, which I purchased February of this year. It was my mistake there, since I got to caught up hearing about the 4s, which is a recent way to call the new iphone now. But I don't think the IPhone 4s is better quality wise. Android and Blackberry win the IPhone when it comes to that category (quality). On the other hand, IPhone is a clear winner for media (apps). But I want a phone that will last long.

[DjEyezLow]

I fucked Hillary Duff in my dreams.

[sasage84]

where in the world is Noah Aaron?

[lazycollosion]

@sasage84 America

[speedinquest]

@sasage84 he works for TechnoBuffalo now.

[hbk1012]

hey aaron you look great. keep up the great reviews.

[YourGameMyGame]

Dear Santa...

[LoganLaromarr]

I take a lot of pictures, probably not that close up but is the auto-focus worth getting the 9810 over this? I think I'd rather have the 9900 form factor but I can probably deal :P What's better spec wise, or is it basically only a choice of which form factor you like?

[jos14906]

sprint sells this phone for $200 online

[Amel22]

@jos14906 yea and the phone as no camera for whatever idiotic reason

[SuperDeluxe80]

i rather have this then my nexus s 4g if it has a sim card like the verizon models

[chadk0523]

bbm on bb has had issues in the past where it will not b able to send the message, i sthat issue still there or was that fixed

[rebsnus8385]

Funny my tmobile bold is 4g step it up

[tv321123]

@rebsnus8385 its not real 4g, 4g technology is wimax and lte. tmobile has none of those they just have slightly faster 3g technology and they lie to the public that it is 4g.

[buckbeak72]

update your app world Aaron. The new app world is awsomely better, and includes more apps than before. Nice review!

[sudhar1998]

the review starts at 1:21 minutes

[ItsCeeTv]

Question: Do you have the option to deactivate the touchscreen? So that its just the keyboard and trackpad?

[Sassyman627]

@ItsCeeTv Whats the point of buying the phone retard

[LPMC723]

@ItsCeeTv

Yeah, just dont push/touch the screen. It is that simple.

[MrGameguy290]

I will pass this phone, I'm gonna wait for the blackberry 10000

[moddkilla]

i got mine for 200 from bestbuy.

[thugajay8]

Sometimes when I'm lonely I day dream that I'm sonic the hedgehog

[MrSikhGaming]

its not even $200 i checked on BestBuy's website not to mention I live in Canada but for one of our phone carriers like rogers it has a 3 year plan of only $100

[brownsugarbabe0823]

if this came with a front facing camera then MAYBE i could say its worthy of a 250 price tag but still, the iphone already has that and is priced 200...why RIM why?? i dont get it. i want to understand lol

[paniko145]

BB is the best

[sudhar1998]

@paniko145 I agree as it earns you the respect of a big business man

[TheSmartdude11]

blue led O_O

[DJARDI100]

WHICH HANDY IS BETTER HELP 9900bold or the 9930 bold???

[tm5315wv]

TIP: if u hold ' # ' for 2 seconds ... the profile changes to vibrate only... :)

[georgethewondermutt]

Love the detailed review. I have a Droid with lots of issues (older model) and need to upgrade for work and personal email, good browser and speed, and of course I need camera and video so I can upload the interesting things in life. I'm now seriously considering this BB vs new Droid or even an iPhone. What are your thoughts on this over Droid? Also, I work in Charlotte and crazy with the earthquake today!

[TheAndroGeek]

Looks like a very nice phone, VERY responsive ! But the price ...

[theune5784]

does anyone know if this will be coming to us cellular too or maybe on of the new curves coming to us cellular

[aloXXXD123]

so the 9900 is better it has autofocus and 4g right? but the new curves might be way better

[EKFiPod]

Does anyone know if there will be a White Bold 9930 ?

[tofudogg]

Seems like a nice phone but it should have been released 2-3 years ago. A punch of morons run the company.

[rocklover3300]

3 of my friends has a BB Torch and let me tell you that the touchpad totally kills the point on having a touchscreen, Absolutely none of them ever uses the screen. They do everything from the buttons

[MrEddyflame]

lol bbm :P

[Whiterin]

It seems like a nice phone... but not at that price.

[lazycollosion]

@Whiterin the unlocked price is the same as the Galaxy S 2?

[SkullsNCrossbones23]

@Whiterin It's like 199 on Sprint now. :)

[SkullsNCrossbones23]

Everytime I show my friend what phone I'm getting to see if she likes it, all she has to say is "Does it have Internet?" which I always say "Yes." too. She follows with the point that she is going to watch "So much porn (Family Guy Refernce[Stewie])" -___-

[ccrevecoeur]

not worth 300.00 with 2 yrs contract

[premmark1]

@ccrevecoeur ikr i rather get the new iphone 4444

[JZwerlZ43]

nice looking phone thought about it for a few days...but decided against it. droid x still as strong and reliable as ever gona wait till the boinic or htc vigor

[romick431]

With my 1 year upgrade for sprint this phone will cost me $425 and there is no way I would shell out that amount of cash for something that hasn't really been upgraded since the last bold revision. I'll wait for something better, any suggestions as to what the best phones are for sprint currently?, I am currently using a blackberry bold 9650 and it is showing its age.

[Oneill240Si]

Does anyone know how much it will be for tmobile? I thought he said $350?! Im hope not because that would definitely stop me from buying it!

[ElTamboru4u]

This device needs to be cheaper, needs a better battery and auto focus. Good device but damn, how does RIM expect to compete with other mobile devices with these three flaws

[iJ0SiAh]

i love my bold for sprint

[minotaur235]

Dog fight between the new blackberries please!



[Martinezj90]

Dog fight bettween that one facebook phone and this one?

[5amClosingTime]

I love when people post when the actual review starts! :)

Don't like this so it won't replace the very useful info.

[david6pac]

and in the next generation of the bold touch... zero checkerboard web browsing and auto focus!

[amirdickey1]

No front facing camers

[mjlava12]

Is it better than a droid?

[Nejitheultimate]

@mjlava12 hell to the no. At least I don't think so.

[jordandroidx]

@mjlava12 never

[Eballs84]

@mjlava12 yes, just about anything is better than that laggy garbage known as droid

[TheSharkzz]

@mjlava12 What the heck?? NO

[meandreww]

It's all the same as the 9780 (ui) snooze.

[cdothedamnthing]

@meandreww lol and iPhone 4 has the same UI as the first iPhone.

But now with background pictures!!

[TheTony2313]

It's only $200 on sprint

[giovannicarrillo]

Dog fight samsung indulge vs motorola triumph

[farmingpower1066]

blackberry back in the game?

[XxZdarkyZxX]

Hey guys!. There's something like BBM on Android and iphone app world

Called LiveProfile!.

Download now! For people who wanted a Free BBm messenger

[ledzepandhabs]

@XxZdarkyZxX

Live profile is nothing like BBM at all. BBM is one of a kind that no other phone OS offers. Apple and Android use SMS (text messaging), BBM is internet data, allowing you to transfer files, video, music voice all kinds of things for free, cause it's data. And unlike Android or IOS versions, BBM is pushed to your phone and damn near instantaneous. Always. BBM is head and shoulders above all competitors models.

[XxZdarkyZxX]

Auto-focus wasn't added because they wanted to make it thin.

Awkward..

[jga1196]

I had a curve 8530 that I had to get replaced three times so they gave a curve 3G in may. Because that was considered a replacement my contract is still up. Should I get this or wait for the new iPhone or any other new phone coming out?

[Awayze]

Rather have an iPhone

[gurjeet3]

If your on the internet at say.....starbucks, and you ahve free wifi, does browsing use up data?? or is data only used when you dont have wifi?

[AyeeJustinn]

@gurjeet3 no it docent use data when ur on wifi, all devices wifi works on wifi and when its turned off and your signal shows u have data, and u start to load a browser then your using data

[gurjeet3]

@AyeeJustinn

Is this on all devices? like the sony arc? and Thanks, im a cell phone nooob

[AyeeJustinn]

@gurjeet3 well most smartphones yes, and yes the sony ericson androids like ur mentioning have wifi and its ok lol :D

[brian1rr]

That thing sucks. The screen is 2 small and in 2 years blackberry will be dead

[Sdalston]

Does this Blackberry play flash video & if it does, does it play it good?

[dudebroman45]

@Sdalston does it play well. grammarrr

[budda17654]

Liking the new lighting setup. Makes seeing the phone screen so Mich easier

[rockkyman]

TOO EXPENSIVE...

[mariokid2115]

@rockkyman 250 is nothing when you find out 2 years of service is $2400

[mjlava12]

hey I am wondering is that phone better than the iPhone 4? I do not know to many smart phones. I am just trying to pick out a nice phone so will you please answer my question.

[Tacoz000]

@mjlava12 Well, it does have a faster processor speed than the iphone (iphone 1 GHz to blackberry 1.2 GHz) the iphone has a better camera, considering it has auto focus. personally, i dont like the iphone. I've had a blackberry and enjoyed it, but android is more suited for me. based off of specs comparison and my own personal experience with both devices, i would have to say yes. if you have had a blackberry before and enjoyed your experience with it, you might like this better than the iphone.

[solarlightning]

@Tacoz000 iphone is a 1ghz underclocked to 800 mhz android=best os for me

[Tacoz000]

@solarlightning Yeah, android really is at the top for me. Currently enjoying my HTC Sensation right now, used to have the G2x but i liked the look of HTC Sense 3.0

[solarlightning]

@Tacoz000 i know people are gonna hate me but i hate sense i just love the lockscreen

[mariokid2115]

@mjlava12 The best way is to see which one you like is to try them. Remember hardware specs DON'T MATTER on a mobile device. Its all the experience. Don't listen to the vocal loyalists who say one is best. If you are already leaning toward one just get it. Don't second guess because, they are all great phones and you wont regret it.

[tinasheroy]

Nice looking phone but I wouldn't sub my HTC phone for it

[BrandonOrozco1995]

Can you make a list of apps that are not on the app world but are still available please?

[BrandonOrozco1995]

Can you do a review of Documents to Go?

[00Yarko]

no autofocus and no MANUAL focus either... the camera is locked at one focus point

[stewartdavidw]

woefully inadequate battery and lack of auto-focus camera make for a poor choice at 249.99 for an otherwise awesome phone. Seriously disappointed over here.

[imrank]

@stewartdavidw buy it from walmart then for cheaper, people need to stop complaining about the price when it has nothkng to do with rim and everything to do with the carriers who are selling the phones.

[stewartdavidw]

@imrank Walmart is taking pre-orders for the device at $199 for new customers and $219.99 for 2-year contract renewals. I can actually get the 9930 for 119.99 through discounts via my online carrier with 2 yr contract renewal. However, I am not completely sold on the phone for the reasons I mentioned.

[SuperTX1000]

what's the difference between the blackberry bold 9900 and the 9930

[apple123express]

nice

[danibanana35]

Amazing device, but not worth the money.

[YoungSimba501]

@danibanana35 Nope. What were they thinking with that price point? They took a step forward and two back.

[crtinoco]

I bet he message his other blackberry lol

[Amine382]

can u give me a phone?!! cause u have 2 :D

[tyto22ene]

Does it support Adobe Flash Player?

[crtinoco]

Kick ass phonee

[ledzepandhabs]

I use BB Appworld 3.0 available on BB Beta World, soon to be released to the public. It is a slick and wicked interface, much better than IOS or Android. Install it and include it in your review next time. ;)

[AdamC31415]

@ledzepandhabs I doubt it's better than the iOS and Android app stores, it doesn't look as nice. (I'm on a Torch)

[mhtruth]

its the little things like sending multiple pictures that make BB terrible... its os makes every task you can do on a iphone and android easily...VERY TEDIOUS...die blackberry DIE!!!!!

[mhtruth]

@ledzepandhabs (so i throw in a few extra periods for the sake of spacing and it gibberish...yet you take the time to reply. lol.) Here let me further dumb it down for you, just so you can grab the simplistic concept. BB aka Blackberry needs to sink its flagship if this is the best they have to offer. get it? got it? good! enjoy ya day.

[gpskl4]

bb is going to die in 2012

[purefired]

@gpskl4 no they won't. they have government contracts granted BB is uses the most secure servers.

[marinator1]

@gpskl4 yo cool story bro

[gpskl4]

@marinator1 hahahah ;)

[10barcelona19]

the camera does adjust btw phonedog you have been saying it alot in vids but yea they do adjust.

[MrDonnie54]

which top comment should I believe????????mmmm.....

[Ishcoa]

Love it, but want to see some of the QNX devices.

[lbaquerizo]

what about gaming. All that porcesor and for what just to type faster? dont think so rather get the new iphone or galaxy s2

[Caspload]

@strpl2 because they aren't updated but you can download them off the Internet

[SuperGigaman]

Nice for a blackberry. Hope to see some QNX soon

[gabrielpalofficial]

Where is the NFC?

[frederico179]

@gabrielpalofficial in the battery door

[gabrielpalofficial]

@frederico179 I know that t's in the battery cover but when his showed the wireless switches there was no NFC on/off. In some other reviews there was an on/off for the NFC.

[strpl2]

hey , i just got the 9930 , love it but why do some of my apps say not available for my device ? thanks

[BrandonOrozco1995]
