RIM BlackBerry Bold 9900 hands-on and initial impressions
MobileBurn.com – We got some hands-on time with the just-announced BlackBerry Bold 9900 from RIM here at BlackBerry World. The Bold 9900 has the traditional BlackBerry form-factor, but with an all new touchscreen above the QWERTY keyboard. It is powered by a 1.2GHz processor and has the new BlackBerry 7 OS with Liquid Graphics engine for smooth graphics and transitions. It should be hitting shelves worldwide this summer.

hi is this bb really delayed why and what will it cost when it comes out
Finally Blackberry gets its RIGHT!
As a former BB fan (and current Droid incredible user) I am very pleased. I was awestruck when Motorola beat BB to it with the Droid Pro. I was like whaat?? Why are these Candians so slow to keep up? Mind boggling. Looks like they have finally stepped up. Send this one to Verizon please!!
I’m debating getting the new iPhone or the Bold 9900 & iPod Touch 5.
lol So business men listen to lady gaga, too? Sad.
when it will be released? exact date?
They should have done away with the trackpad row of buttons and made the screen bigger, would have been much better. Still going to be my next fone though.
IS it Being Released or At&T And Rogers Wireless Up here in Canada?
its a beautiful phone and deffinetly will be the best blackberry out there but what pisses me off is they have gone through the troubles of making it faster and upgrading the memory etc but they have left the camera at just 5mp…cant believe they couldnt just add a 8mp….the 5mp camera on the bold 9780 and the torch is poor for taking pictures and video so if its the same one as them i think thats poor from blackberry to do that…i wanna get it but the camera being just 5mp puts me off
@chancesareshewears Do your research. Rim will have two full touchscreen phones coming out this year. Plus many people DO want physical keyboards. Not everyone wants to watch tv on their phones so a big screen is NOT a must.
@accellpo I ask the same question all the time. I love blackberry, but damn are they behind.
Sweet!!
i might sound clod but what type of games could you play on the Blackberry or if any?
Awesome phone.. that chicks tattoos are really ugly though.. lol
Will the 8gb on board memory be use for apps ? thank you
—capabilities—
The rep’s favorite word.
8:40 apple is killing the blackberry OMG
Finally a very competitive blackberry! Apparently getting the software and hardware guys to work together is a winning formula
All jokes aside, it’s good to see that Blackberry is on its way up.
They should’ve released this last year! Why is RIM always behind?
is this coming to ATT and if so when?
I wonder how youtube looks on it
defeats the purpose of the mini mouse/touchpad with the touch screen
very nice phone , but didnt os6 just came out like a while ago ? but anyways this is by far the best blackberry ive ever seen
@chikmaginet95 T-Mo announced in the U.S., Virgin in Canada.
@NotAznChrisPark Yeah, I’m very pleased with the new intro. Had been wanting to do that for 2 years, just never found anybody until recently.
Just saying, the mobile burn intro was kinda awesome with subs
