ok before i wanted the 9900 but i also thought it was too big, then i wanted the 9360 cuz it had a curve, but it didnt have the awesome key bored. and then i found this one its just perfect!! its curved, touch screen, AND also has the nice key bored!!! omg i want this one now!!
To all who are getting confused on the BB line up I can understand where you are coming from and it is true that RIM is competing against itself in a way. The other side of the coin is the fact that RIM must cater to every audience they can right now just to stay in the game. Due to them being the leaders for so long they relaxed on innovation and now they are paying the price. I like the idea of the 9790 as a lot of people do like the smaller form factor, I have large hands and therefore can't
I like this new more compact, more cost effective 9790 Bold. It's great for people who prefer to have a new os7 Bold with touch-screen. I prefer to keep my 9900 though. I like the larger touch-screen, etc. I'm not liking the new separated keys along the middle. Dunno what that change is all about. Also, I understand RIM is introducing a lot of new phones all at once, but don't really get what all the confusion is about.
@appleloveTK im a fan of bb..but i have to agree w you. They make a new device and take out some features from the older then they come out w another new device n put the feature back on. Then the batteries keep getting worse then better etc etc. Despite this new device their flagship is still the 9900 yet this one has autofocus n possibly a better battery? now they need one of these w/o touch. the 9700/9780 had one of the best batteries out there, why use smaller batteries now?
what is happening?!? now the curve turns full touch screen?! the bold 9900 has just been released then there's 9790? for what is the 9790? i hope the 9900 is still the most high end smarphone of blackberry??what's up with that???I'm buying the bold 9900 in a week so what's up with the new bold???
Why is everyone having a cow? The reason they made this apart from the 9900 is because it is cost effective, it has all the same perks and it's smaller (something that girls like, because the 9900 is way too big for my hands). I love how they released this, it's giving a lot to choose from. AND it has BB os7. I'ma get mine =)
@RomanXqs I think it came out today coz i went to o2 to get the 9780 and they told me bout this, but they told me their shop was gettin them in nxt week -__-
@xMikey21 bbx is the new operating system look up the new blackberry ones they been all touch screen like the iphone and no more keybored from what i seen and it will be not os7 but bbx like the operating system they use on the blackberry play book
@CalgEerie Bold Touch for the 9000 fans, Bold Touch for the 9700 fans, Torch with a slid-out keyboard, Torch without a keyboard, Traditional Curve and Full Touch Curve for the lower market. How's that hard to remember? The others are last gen phones, only thing "new" is they brought back the 9000 style (fans choice) and put out a cheaper full touch curve. Get over it! Go look at HTC, Samsung and Moto and it's the the same thing if not more.
@cooldudesanatjha but, considering the other aspects like the design, battery life, etc. i prefer 9790 over 9900, 9900 just too big for me and the battery drains so quickly o.0
والله بصراحه موبايل ممتاز و مطور محسن تم صنعه بطريقه سريعه نظرا الى غلطتهم الكبيره بالنسبه الى البولد ال2 9900 و 9930 نسخه محسنه و مطوره رائع .... لكن ما راح اقدر استغني عن التورج مالي 9810 هههه حبيبي والله مهما يشفر احبه
@appleloveTK im by no means tech savvy so i dont know.. maybe the batteries arent worse but the battery life for these new devices def dont have the juice they used to. But their line up is def starting to get confusing. Their own phones r competing w each other! keep it simple! touch, non-touch, and then both. Keep the torch, n bold no touch, n then a bold w touch! There!
Right so... SIM Free... SE Xperia Pro - £300, 8mp cam, front cam, 720p, slidey keyboard, android, 3.7in screen. Samsung Galaxy M Pro - £320, 5mp cam, front cam, trackpad, 2.66in screen, android, portrait keyboard. BB Bold 9790... £350, 2.4in screen, 5mp cam, no front cam, bbos (ugh), though perhaps the best keyboard even though no direct access to puncuation makes me wonder why everyone says it is... best deal? defo not the BB... get real.
@123reset123 blackberry? what about HTC, does any blackberry have a dual core processor? does any blackberry have decent apps? does a blackberry have shit apps?yes does a blackberry keep freezing? yes is a blackberry a rip of? yes does the blackberry have the worst browser? yes. is the screen on most blackberrys way too small yes? does a blackberry have a nice homescreen with shortcuts and weather? no. whats so good about opening pdf documents and web browsing when the screen size is tiny! haha
they should do just like apple! ONE PHONE PER YEAR!!! THEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TYPE OF PHONE BUY BECAUSE this has best camera this one has more resolution blah blah -_-
the new bold look really nice, it looks like a mix between a bold and a curve

I have the 9790 and its a great phone the speakers on it sound great I have no complaints about this phone
Thumbs up for BB users who think BB always has creatively new design with new functions! :-)
He said that RIM are working on battery life in the newer os upgrades which is great news
I have a feeling that the 9790 will be the LAST best-selling smartphone that RIM has ever made.
I love blackberry, especially the Bold series. But the 9900 and the 9790, aren't they redundant? :|
How is the battery life of the 9790? My 9700 can go three days on one charge. I hope the 9790 lasts longer than the 9900.
guys i swear to god i just bought the 9790 and its the Best phone out there !!!

When's it coming to the US? And on what carriers?
Is the action of the keys as great as the 9900?
bbx? i thought QNX was the new operating system that was to come out after blackberry 7. Is there a difference ?
the battery life can go 2 days on a good amount of use with WiFi on also
@SamsTheatre BBX is the combination of QNX with BBOS, so its RIM's new operative system for the cell phones or how its gonna b called superphone
Which one is better? This or the bb 9900 or the torch? answer plzz
when is this phone coming to the US ?
This or the HTC Sensation? PLEASE REPLY!!
I want a hybrid touch/real qwerty phone. But i never had a BB before. And what would be the best service to you BB? Verizon is killing the pockets...

Will there be a CDMA version on Verizon?
Can I get this phone and use it with T-mobile network? Will it be fully compatible???

How do you like it?
any idea for BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9981
I have some money and don't know Wether to get this or a new laptop???? Plz help!!!
@MrFercky how much did u by it for ?
SINCE THE BOLD 9790 HAS A LESS PROCESSOR THAN THE 9900, DOES THAT MEAN YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO UPDATE MUCH OF THE OS UNLESS YOU BUY THE 9900???
why did you remove the video? P9981
@PaperChasah yeahh I bought it online..with my wireless carrier
i got this blackberry its amazing!!
@Thodoros21 hey, in the UAE its 1850 DH
@RomanXqs I think it came out today coz i went to o2 to get the 9780 and they told me bout this, but they told me their shop was gettin them in nxt week -__-
what's the point of making a smaller blackberry bold when the 9900 was the best bold out there, now RIM is down sizing
@thetreverpitts bbx?
new into is nice :)
@peachpit212 go for the 9900 it's got a bigger display
This, or LG Optimus 2x?
Blackberry needs an 8 mega pixel and a front facing camera!!!
@imnchstruntd Bold 9790 is supposed to be a more economical bold compared to 9900.
its like a curve and bold together
@xMikey21 bbx is the new operating system look up the new blackberry ones they been all touch screen like the iphone and no more keybored from what i seen and it will be not os7 but bbx like the operating system they use on the blackberry play book
