[d12981]

Theyre* the*

[d12981]

Get the motorola photon definately. Blackberrys are cool but heyrr definately behind on some stuff in the smartphone world. Plus tje photon is android and has way more apps.

[d12981]

Palm centro? Thats the worst phone to ever exist (in my opinion).

[fashioncutie44]

Wtf this phone is ugly azz hell

[rebelhunter98]

Should I get this or the motorale photon

[maxzegarowski23]

palm centro is wayyy better than all of these phones

[rebelhunter98]

Should I get this or the nexus s 4g???

[rsalem14]

i want to know more about the gsm because i travel alot from america to europe, i have a sim card for europe and i want service in america, somebody help!?

[megaflex48]

my wife has this phone i have the evo 4g the b/b is just as fast as my evo, and she can use her phone in canada. should have stuck with the b/b my battery life sucks.

[endwye]

tourin' the tour, which is no more

[fayskelley]

I was very tempted to get this BB, but am going to wait for a few months during 2011 to see what else Sprint comes out with ~

[oSOULSTEALERo]

@fayskelley I just got it the other day and love it! I actually upgraded from Samsung Rant which I didn't mind to much but once I got the hang of the Blackberry I loved it. You could also run over to Sprint and ask what new phones they are coming out with.

[longhorncowboy1]

So the bold 9650 has wifi and te tour 9650 does not?

[oJiiGxSaWo]

@longhorncowboy1 there is no tour no more its only the bold

[LuisRamirez666]

What is the difference between the 9700 and this 9650? Thanks

[1TuBeR09]

@LuisRamirez666 the 9650 has double the ram 512mb as opposed to 256mb on the 9700.

[LuisRamirez666]

@1TuBeR09 besides that... i think the 9650 its CDMA only, thanks for your answer

[erikisthebest1]

Does anyone know if Sprint will be selling the Blackberry 9700??

[DURTYSOUTH92]

@erikisthebest1 Yes they do and been have since it came out go check the site and they have a $69.99 deal going on for individual lines and if you do your plan and phone order online you get free activation and shipping. :) Does that help ?

[waelib1]

@DURTYSOUTH92 true

[J03KAH]

can someone please tell me when it is coming to the uk?, thanks in advanced

[yehyehsoilwell]

Good, I was replacing my curve 8330 for an iPhone 4(AT&T) But now im going to upgrade to this

[snowboard20356]

this is a badass phone

[Remzi101]

wi fi???

[NASNIPmangco0l]

@Remzi101 Yes, it has WiFi. A HUGE upgrade from the old Tour.

[Diannalovesyou]

booo. I don't like the track pad.

[Speakup84]

That strip club cracks me up!

[TornadoFlash]

which is btr?

Bold 9650 or Bold9700?

[pimpddady]

this is the most amazing phone in the world!

[wildfan12001]

Blackberry should use the android market but keep its phones the way they are that would be sick...maybe make the screens on phones like the bold and curve touch but keep the same size but maybe a tad bigger...i dont like the look of the 9800

[najeebu1]

@Chrisychris2 you should get the htc evo

[najeebu1]

Should I get this phone or the samsung instinct HD?

I need help quickly

[hahaurcool7]

@najeebu1 this phone for sure

[imgettinmoney02]

@najeebu1 Instinct fucking sucks dude real tlk

[COD5Sniip3R]

can the blackberry bold 9650 send pictures and videos?

[najeebu1]

@Pandalolzz this phone has the highest ratings in sprint but the hero is a really good phone . The battery life on the sucks tho. The htc evo is amazing tho and much better than all the phones on sprint

[PandaLoLzZ]

should i get this or the hero????

[AnuKidd]

where can i purchase this device.....the unlock version???

[DjCharm1411]

yea they shoyld have stuck with calling it the tour 2 because the only difference is there is no more track ball, so its not worthy of being a bold, it is the exact same as a tour nothing different at all... COME ON BLACKBERRY STEP IT UP WE WANT A FULL TOUCH SCREEN FULL KEYBOARD BLACKBERRY WITH BETTER APPS!!!!!

[efroggys]

@DjCharm1411 you're literally mentally challenged. Thats what YOU want, that's not what WE want. The current blackberry look is sexy and iconic, I don't want it changed. You can get that kind of phone from a shitty android phone. My suggestion, switch to that if you're unsatisfied with BB. The new Bold 9650 has a trackpad, way more memory AND wi-fi, which are all HUGE improvements. Its not meant to be a completely different phone, but IMPROVED. Look it up.

[0legacyking0]

so whats the difference between sprint 9650 and tmobile 9700 ?

[7ustice]

@0legacyking0 basically, the usb slot on the 9650 is in the old spot n it's a lil bigger, thats really it

[ipokeherfacee]

is it coming out for at&t? please answer

[0legacyking0]

@ipokeherfacee no , its only for sprint.

[WiZe1972]

Technically, the 9650 is better; 512mb flash memory, support for openGL, OS6 capable....

[musicalFREAK87]

I love my 9700 and it looks better!

[efroggys]

@musicalFREAK87 you're just mad because you can't get the new Bold. Go home.

[musicalFREAK87]

@efroggys um maybe you need to go home! You don't even know me so you might want to keep your stupid comments to yourself before you speak again, because maybe you are mad because you can't afford a Blackberry!

[efroggys]

@musicalFREAK87 you're retarded, get a hobby, hun.

[DjCharm1411]

@efroggys UR ONE STUPID FUCK UP< KEEP YOUR COMMENTS TO YOURSELF

[DjCharm1411]

@efroggys Im Mental because BB spends Countless months just to make a tour without a trackball? if you havent realized the world dones not revolve around... "BASIC" phones anymore, The Blackberries are no longer a lead runner because they are falling behind in what attracts people more, just like the iphone, Android is hitting so hard because it is giving everyone what they want, Blackberry is going to have to step it up if they want to even keep a steady customer rating going, DUMBASS

[efroggys]

@DjCharm1411 I'm just sayin, you're wrong.

[DjCharm1411]

@efroggys well i guess we will see what bb does next, then we will determine who is wrong... they are about to hit the 10k series so expect something big

[Terinigan]

@efroggys No no no, you've got it all wrong, that's what YOU want. What most people want nowadays is a touchscreen with a simple, beautiful and elegant looking interface and a sh*tload of features, apps and possibilities. As @DjCharm1411 said BB is falling behind, and while their current phones may look sexy to some (you), it's faaaaar far from what the rest of the world currently wants.

[weezy0237]

@Terinigan pssshhh...not everyone wants a touch screen... and beautiful and elegant...what dont you have a partner or admire men/women? hahaha..cmon neow! I kno what your sayin...there is a vass diff. in what different ppl want!

[Terinigan]

@weezy0237 And in that different there is a majority who just happen to like touchscreens more than a full qwerty keyboard on the front.

[gulfmen86]

shits ugly... the 9700 shits on this

[soulchild2008]

That background music is giving me a headache.

[YinCutillo]

is the keyboard bigger than the keyboard in the bold 9700???

[TubeUsername11111111]

the 9700 is better than this

[0legacyking0]

@TubeUsername11111111 and exactly how is the 9700 better ?

[rezy123]

the 9700 is better

[kangalex]

will this be Blackberry OS 6 ready or will it come with the 6?

[Dodgesrtx]

This looks like it might be my next Blackberry. Can't wait to get one!

[JasnoGT]

@Dodgesrtx Me too! Im with Sprint and have the 8530 and thought about going with the HTC hero...but its laggy. My 8530 is so fast and this would be even better!

(better bling styling,world phone,better screen resoluion, better camera, memory...etc...*drools*)
