BlackBerry Bold 9700
Official word of the next generation BlackBerry Bold is finally here. Below you can find the full specs and features list for the new BlackBerry Bold 9700 Smartphone. And be sure to check out our pre-release BlackBerry Bold 9700 Review which goes hands-on with some of the enhancements made to this smaller, yet more powerful, BlackBerry Bold.
BlackBerry Onyx (Bold 9700) Overview
With so many existing and upcoming BlackBerry device models that look similar (yet different), it's becoming a bit confusing to differentiate at a glance between models. We have an upcoming article with our theory behind RIM's multiple device strategy, but in the meantime the big thing to note about Onyx is that's unassuming and slick form factor packs a ton of punch:
- 3G device - GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS (Bands: 850, 900, 1800, 1900)
- 480 by 360 display, beveled edges
- 256 megabytes of internal memory (same as Curve 8900, 8520)
- 1550mAh M-S1 battery (same as Bold)
- 3.2 megapixel camera, with flash and auto focus
- Processor: Not 100% sure actually, but am hearing its a Tavor processor that may be running even a bit quicker than the Bold's 624MHz processor (definitely seems snappy)
- GPS, WiFi (UMA capable but we'll see what happens there), and all the normal stuff you'd expect on a BlackBerry smartphone
