New wine, old bottle

The Bold 3 is based on the new OS6- the operating system for future Blackberry. The Webkit web browser is the most important upgrade, possibly. Not only is this browser interface snappier than the predecessor, but the page rendering speeds were also improved. Apart from the upgraded browser, OS6 also brings universal search from the home screen, an app called Social Feeds, an updated music player and multiple ‘screens’ for customizing app links. Apart from this, the navigation and options menus are a lot more streamlines. The settings menu is a lot easier to navigate than before, thanks to the clubbing together of similar options. The 9780 is identical to the Bold 9700 – same dimensions, look and feel on the outside.

The call quality is good and both the hands-free and in-ear speakers are loud and clear. The music library looks fantastic now, for a Blackberry device.

The QWERTY keypad is easy to use and the keys are big enough. The battery lasts about two days, and the 5 MP camera is quite decent – images are clear, vivid and not noisy.

There’s an app called Social Feeds, which allows you to check for all updates on Twitter, Facebook, BB Messenger, etc. – all from a single application.

While this is a new phone, the focus is largely on the software side. The Blackberry Bold 9780 carries forward the performance standard set by the Bold 9700. A better camera, better interface, better battery life, and more memory – the Bold 9780 is just about better in every way at roughly the same price. Definitely a must have for Blackberry users looking for a new handset, and anyone wanting a feature-rich QWERTY phone.
