BlackBerry Bold vs iPhone 3GS Review

Gadget Review: BlackBerry Bold vs. iPhone 3GS. BlackBerry or iPhone? That is the question I hear every day from a person who received one of the cool gadgets. Well, my friends, this review will surely draw light on both phones, and hopefully you will be able to draw some conclusions at the end.

As you know from my previous post: Gadget Review: iPhone 3GS, I am quite happy iPhone owners. I do not own a BlackBerry Bold, but manymy friends are in possession of the competitiveness of Research In Motion (RIM) gadget. I played with him for several times, and I think I've established a pretty good "relationship" with the BlackBerry.

The BlackBerry Bold has a very sleek design, unlike its predecessors. I thought the look of this gadget very much. The QWERTY keyboard was always easy to use because the buttons are well designed for data input on this nice little gadget. Now, one of the major features on the BlackBerry Bold isthe screen. The gadget has a half VGA resolution 480 x 320 pixel color display. The quality of the picture is very crisp, and I would be very pleased to see the latest episode of Two and a Half Men. The e-mail on the Bold is excellent. I do not think that there is no real competition for this particular aspect of the BlackBerry, as it is the most important feature that RIM tried to improve on with each release of the new gadget. And of course there's the BlackBerry Messenger. Loved by many and the desiredby others. The BlackBerry service is free, and it has all the BlackBerry published. This cool digital gadgets reduces your bill heavily on text messaging. Now of course this is only for BlackBerry devices, so it makes it a unique feature of the RIM device.

Now for the review of the disadvantages .... Yes, there are always disadvantages! The BlackBerry Bold is quite large in size. The bulky size is not possible for seamless blending into your pocket. If RIM managed to reduce the sizeBlackBerry Bold to the effect that the Pearl sports, I think the customer base for the gadget would increase significantly. The BlackBerry Bold browser, while improving, are still possibilities, from a user-friendly interface. The navigation is with trackball that is in the middle of the gadget's done, the constant scrolling and navigating through the pages can be quite annoying and tiring. I hope that thinking about something for the future of RIM BlackBerry devices. The screen, while crisp is only a half the size. But that trade with most non-touch screen gadget is. Finally, the camera can be a desirable improvement. BlackBerry Bold in fact come with a flash and the camera is a 3.2-megapixel camera, but the Sony Ericsson Cyber-dwarfs the BlackBerry gadget in comparison, but we'll leave the Sony Ericsson gadget for further review.

The comparison of the BlackBerry Bold to the iPhone 3GS is a rather difficult task (as opposed to my previous comparison of the> IPhone and the Nokia N-95), because I think for both devices are intended for different markets and are designed for somewhat different purposes. But let us try and compare the two devices.

The screen comparison is relatively simple: you get a larger screen with the iPhone, but the quality is better on the BlackBerry Bold. Now, note that the screen on the iPhone is the glue that holds everything together. While it is, it is almost as largeYou could suffer crack all your eggs in one basket - so the screen to power the gadget. This is the double-edged sword type of touch screen phones!

If you are for real and tangible keys for data entry, rather like on the BlackBerry Bold, as contrary to digitized keyboards on the iPhone, the choice is pretty obvious it's really up to user settings. Personally, I happen to love the iPhone keyboard, but I have no problem with the BlackBerryeither, it's just that I prefer a larger screen and keyboard, the iPhone is a very efficient gadget.

The camera. To be honest, this comparison of the two devices on the picture taking aspect as "Special Olympics" are described race. Now I have nothing against the disabled population of our world, and an apology if you found it offensive, but simply to put it, are the two cameras, the iPhone and the BlackBerry Bold just not on par with what is outthere. IPhone trumps BlackBerry from 1.2 megapixels and a flash, but it's not really something that I would be proud to show to all my friends. Moving on.

E-mail. Absolutely no competition. BlackBerry devices have been developed for e-mails. IPhone is a decent and simple e-mail client, but have not even come close to the RIM gadget.

BlackBerry Messenger is something that I would have liked on my iPhone. I am a great admirer of the iPhoneText-messaging system, but if I can also send, free texts, well let's just say that even Gollum from Lord of the Rings would overlook his precious for a feature like that!

Browser. Once again, do not serve a competition, but this goes to the iPhone. Easy-to-large screen, fast Safari browser. Once you use the iPhone browser, I would venture to a gadget that Apple will find mobile aces. BlackBerry Bold is blown out the water, land, planet and solar system in thisDepartment.

Finally, the size of the two devices is very similar. Personally, I'm the slim form factor of the iPhone will find it extremely convenient, but it makes it brittle. Do not forget that in the back pocket, or you will end up with a beautiful spider web design on the screen of your precious gadget. The BlackBerry Bold, as mentioned above is quite bulky, but it makes it much more stable than the iPhone. I give them to the iPhone, but as with mostabove comparisons, this is again user settings.

The verdict .... and there is simply no winner in this fight. Many of the comparison of the two devices were ultimately based on user preferences. One must ask themselves: what should I use on my phone? If it's e-mail and organizational reasons, I recommend the Blackberry Bold. If it for fun and surfing, I recommend the iPhone. The choice is yours. Both devices are very suitable for implementationeach task, but their design and concept for these tasks is significantly different, and you're the one, to make the call - BlackBerry Bold or the iPhone.

I hope you find this useful gadget, and I welcome comments and discussions on the BlackBerry Bold or the iPhone. Both devices are amazing pieces of technology, but as this review outlines, the ultimate target audience is different.
