BlackBerry Bold 9900 coming to T-Mobile later this year!

By Bla1ze on 2 May 2011 11:03 am

With the announcement of the BlackBerry Bold 9900 comes confirmation from T-Mobile that they will indeed be making the device available to their customers. Sadly, no official date has been set as of yet or pricing terms but for some folks, just knowing T-Mobile is adding it to their line-up will be enough to hold them over. Of course, we expect other carriers to make their announcements as well so, stay tuned! Did we mention it was HSPA+ enabled? It is.

You mad brah?!?

SharpieFiend May 2, 2011 at 12:48 pm

I guess everyone is at BlackBerry World and not moderating the comments?

I wish there was a "report post" button...

feldmen01 May 2, 2011 at 1:44 pm

I have been making that argument for ages. That and email notification for replies.

Trem44 May 2, 2011 at 2:40 pm

Yeah I wish I had a "BAN" button too.

SharpieFiend May 2, 2011 at 11:18 am

How quickly we forget...

Wish this was coming out before my trip overseas in early June.

vjuanx May 2, 2011 at 11:20 am

Will this device be on at&t also? :(
I don't wanna go through the unlocking and running it on edge -___- what if they use a micro sim?
KILL ME!

ealvnv May 2, 2011 at 12:52 pm

yes it will, lock at the units being reviewed :)

feldmen01 May 2, 2011 at 11:24 am

this needs to be released YESTERDAY! I love my Storm 2 but I am dying for an upgrade...

It's like I've been trapped in the desert for months with no water to drink, only those damn mirages.

santi29402 May 2, 2011 at 11:24 am

This is great news, can't wait!!

Guatiao May 2, 2011 at 11:34 am

The Bold Touch is my plan B Berry, bring on the Monza/ Monaco TMoB!!!

c4rt00nb0y May 2, 2011 at 11:35 am

TMOBILE!.... EFFIN DEAD. This sucks ass. Is the 9930 going to be for Verizon?! GRRR... blood is boiling. AT&T customer here... gonna punch a bich right now.

WillHeSurvive May 2, 2011 at 12:49 pm

CX tweeted yesterday that the Bold Touch was in testing for AT&T.

richv77 May 2, 2011 at 11:36 am

Where's the Love for AT&T?

PLTM May 2, 2011 at 11:42 am

With the Torch.

Tmo baby, this phone is mine on day one. Lovin it....

captainbdsc May 2, 2011 at 6:33 pm

I am sure AT&T will get the same phone. It is just super nice that it isn't another AT&T exclusive.

Mvor7 May 2, 2011 at 11:40 am

SA-WEEEEEEEEEEEEEET :))))

shupor May 2, 2011 at 11:42 am

Yessss!!!!! Now i can keep exchanging the 9780 with the crappy keypad and hopefully frustrate Tmobile into upgrading me to the 9900 for free.

MsBrittz1016 May 2, 2011 at 11:47 am

hahaha that is my plan too!!!!!

MsBrittz1016 May 2, 2011 at 11:48 am

considering AT&T customers got screwed with no 9780 - i would hope they get this phone

PLTM May 2, 2011 at 1:24 pm

Considering all other carriers customers got screwed with no Torch - i would hope AT&T dont get this phone.

phoneking13 May 2, 2011 at 11:50 am

Anyone with camping gear? I'm so going to get this on opening day! :D

grreyes24 May 2, 2011 at 12:08 pm

Yes! That's what I wanted to hear. I love T-Mobile and will be there on launch day to pick this up. Hopefully the AT&T purchase doesn't get approaved. This phone with HSPA+ paired to my PlayBook will be perfect.

breakmedown May 2, 2011 at 12:09 pm

I'm waiting for the AT&T announcement. If it doesn't go to AT&T hopefully they will have the 3G AT&T bands on board.

aa25007 May 2, 2011 at 12:31 pm

I'll sell my old Bold about ten days before it comes out and I'll be the first one in line at my local t-mobile store to get this phone and put it on my plan... Yes, I can't wait anymore now please T-mobile come out with the Playbook with 4G to replace my Galaxy Tablet.

hoonaynay#cb May 2, 2011 at 12:35 pm

I'm just a tad confused. The phone is HSPA+ enabled but not LTE compatible? I know they're two entirely-different technologies,, but that may turn off some CDMA users. Personally, I don't need "4G" but it strikes me as odd. Anyone else?

mpatchez May 2, 2011 at 12:50 pm

Yeah thats what I've been thinking too. Ide like to see an LTE BB now! lol

Lets see what the CDMA models surprise us with....

mkye86 May 2, 2011 at 12:46 pm

All the 3G fuss I made for nothing. This is amazing news!

1. Osama Killed - √
2. TMo Getting a 4G BB - √

I dont know what to do with myself!!! This is even better than Osama Dying! I love this new BOLD. I can't wait!!

Kiddo2050 May 2, 2011 at 1:20 pm

With the Bridge debacle at AT&T this might just be the reason to say good bye!!

DatBoyHam May 2, 2011 at 1:22 pm

Now that 4G was BB best kept secret.....I"M LOVING IT let's go T-MO gone and push this device on out i can get rid of the unlocked Torch

echo8787 May 2, 2011 at 2:14 pm

Anyone know when this will be released? Do you think they will release it before the Monza?!? I sure hope so.

wg1181 May 2, 2011 at 2:29 pm

I want this machine for yesterday can't wait any longer

Daviddlt126 May 2, 2011 at 2:40 pm

Screw the torch 2, I had 2 defective torch 1's and vowed never to purchase it again. Still can't buy the 9780, want my 9900!!

srodriguez13 May 2, 2011 at 3:04 pm

If the 9900 is 4g then so will the Bberry Touch I cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!! Although Im weary because it will be my first keyboard-less phone ever!

carios23 May 2, 2011 at 3:15 pm

I want this ASAP!

jginel May 2, 2011 at 3:23 pm

Holy Cow! Will it also be UMA capable? Need that UMA but I think if AT&T takes over, they're going to kill it. Dang, I hope that merger doesn't go through.

Stixy May 29, 2011 at 11:25 am

I agree. UMA Rocks!!! While I'm personally not fond of T-Mo, (Tech support sucks & they haven't stood behind my last 2 buggy phones), I believe the AT&T takeover, will only make things worse! Looking foward to possibly buying this phone.... the deal breaker would be no UMA!

jcv822 May 2, 2011 at 3:39 pm

att takeover is just bad for business whatever spin they put in it. i'm enjoying my playbook and 9700 on tmo...imagine the 9900...

mellos10 May 2, 2011 at 3:58 pm

So the GSM version will be 4g? What about the Sprint version?

datta72 May 2, 2011 at 4:16 pm

I'd like to Thank the Gods above and the kind people over at RIm for making this phone a reality. Thank You, Thank You and Thank You

House_Ape May 2, 2011 at 4:20 pm

IF Sprint gets it :(

xbigreemo#cb May 2, 2011 at 4:35 pm

YESSS!!!! I will be there on release date, I'm due an upgrade probably right around the time it is released!

zoso28 May 2, 2011 at 4:37 pm

THANK GOD they announced a 4G BB.. That's about the only thing that will revive them< and boy will it!! I can't wait to get this phone & bridge my playbook with it!! Whatever company it goes to will be my new best buddy.
