I got this phone on monday from rogers on a 3 year contract. This phone is VERY good, it's easy to use, and the trackpad does wonders. No regrets after getting this. I also don't have the trackpad indented like he does and i've been using it for 5 days about and i use it a lot on the bus ride to school. BBM is very good and the GPS isn't bad. RECOMMEND THIS!
@BrianEJRichards dont worry. my friend has the blackberry curve with a trackpad and it works perfectly. about 6 months after having it when i used her blackberry it was perfectly good
I thought this was a great review and you showed us what a lot of us are really interested in, like surfing the web and taking pictures and texting. Good job mister.
depends on the model to be quite honest, my 8120 was made in hungary and my 8900 was made in mexico so yeah but some of the accessory that came with the phone were made in china
I like all the info you are bringing to Canadians however I wish you could be a little more critical. It feels like you like every new thing that comes out! Is this true?
GREAT, thorough review of what looks to be a very impressive phone ! I have the Iphone with AT&T here in the U.S. While I love many things about it, there ARE downsides to touch screens, and frankly it's not great as a phone (crap battery & speakerphone, plus slightly heavy in weight). This might be *the* BB to make me switch back (used BB 8320 prior to Iphone). IMO the Bold 9000 is a bit bulky, "slow", and clunky but this one is slim, SEXY & FAST ! This American thanks U ! :-)
@uaboob I agree, I dont even youse my iphone to call either, I use my BB. Iphone is fun for games and other apps but blackberry just works and makes everything go faster if you know what i mean.
I am concerned with the trackpad. One should be able to press the trackpad as hard as wanted without having it break. That bit of info, is making me look more at a 9000. I dont want a broken/warped trackpad.
@thePeat1 I'm kinda agree to what you have said above, even android phones can do more things than a bb. And, I'm actually doubt of getting one bb. Gotta think twice tough.
@singhsc430 Easy, go to eBay and enter "Blackberry 9700 bottom plate" and you can get one for under ten bucks easily. All you need is a case opener or an equivalent and you're set.
I play hockey as a young girl with only other boys so I have always heard about them wwntin to be in the NHL so when I heard that I was very much more confident
ive been looking up vids about BB's for 2 days now and all i can say is that this thing has noting on android phones and iphones. I cant name one thing that you cant do on android/iphone but you can on a BB. the other way around though, I can name a lot of things. this phone seems to ignore every other phone in the industry and just use their design and brand name to sell it. I am happy if you can tell me otherwise but I doubt it.
lol theres no such thing as an 16GB for the iPod Touch..theres only 8GB, 32GB, & 64GB. I know because i have the 32GB iPod Touch..and i recomend getting the bold 9700 because the ipod touch&iphone are the exact same just ipod touch has more space and doesn't have a camera..AND...can't make calls.
@Misc4Lyfe Hey well my plan is a bit pricey, i have 500 mb data, early evening and unlimted weekends, 500 mins, unlimited text msging including picture and video, the usual call display, 3 way call, voice mail all for about $90 i do make a couple calls to oshawa once in awhile so i get charged long distance.
omfg seriously man? you talk about the trackpad ALOT, and saying how amazing it is.. the freaking same thing as the trackball but its just a pad.. thats it

your very good at reviews man! keep it up :)
Great Review, love the ladybird test!!! Ha ha, just ordered mine here in the UK, this helped me make my mind up between this and the iphone, thanks
@thegorilla30 actually 3 is getting the iphone 4g i actually preordered it on my contract to get it for free.
I am concerned with the trackpad. One should be able to press the trackpad as hard as wanted without having it break. That bit of info, is making me look more at a 9000. I dont want a broken/warped trackpad.
your inet and wifi are really amazing. (speed-i mean)

Crooked trackpad?
The trackpad is sunken in at the top left corner.
I have a curve 8520, (with a trackpad) and it is never straight. It is a little loose. Dissapointing.
ive been looking up vids about BB's for 2 days now and all i can say is that this thing has noting on android phones and iphones. I cant name one thing that you cant do on android/iphone but you can on a BB. the other way around though, I can name a lot of things. this phone seems to ignore every other phone in the industry and just use their design and brand name to sell it.

i just got this phone 2 days ago and i love it!!

lol theres no such thing as an 16GB for the iPod Touch..theres only 8GB, 32GB, & 64GB. I know because i have the 32GB iPod Touch..and i recomend getting the bold 9700 because the ipod touch&iphone are the exact same just ipod touch has more space and doesn't have a camera..AND...can't make calls.
