BlackBerry Bold 9700 Review

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 5 Nov 2009 12:01 am
Whenever I write a review for a new BlackBerry Smartphone, it tends to turn into a 6,000+ word novel. Not this time. For one, Chris, Adam and Craig are all writing their impressions of the BlackBerry Bold 9700 too, each coming at it from a slightly different user perspective. Between us there will be no shortage of Bold 9700 coverage on the blogs. Also, I did a pretty thorough job of covering...

BlackBerry Storm 2 Review Roundup

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 17 Oct 2009 6:47 pm
When the clock struck 12:01am on Thursday, October 15th, a small herd of BlackBerry Storm2 Reviews took to the internet (well, one actually popped up a tad bit earlier). Unlike some BlackBerry device launches where you could spend the following two days reading through every word of every review and watching every second of video, the BlackBerry Storm2's official splash was a bit sparse (...

This time around we're looking at an officially-received BlackBerry Storm2. Has RIM taken the Storm to the next level with the Storm 2, or are we looking at a minor update?

BGR's BlackBerry 9700 Initial Impressions

Posted by Kevin Michaluk on 23 Sep 2009 8:12 am
Saying the BlackBerry Bold 9700 is a highly-anticipated device is a bit of an understatement. Like the Bold 9000, the 9700 represents the pinnacle of what the traditional BlackBerry experience is all about, though compared to its predecessor packs more punch into a much smaller package.We brought you our initial BlackBerry Bold 9700 Review back in May, when the pre-production "onyx" aka 9020...

BlackBerry Curve 8520 - One Week Later

Posted by Adam Zeis on 13 Aug 2009 2:27 pm
I've had a little over a week to play with my new BlackBerry Curve 8520 and I have some mixed emotions at this point. There are some great features, and I think overall it is a great "intro to BlackBerry" device. I'm not going to get into a full blown review this time around, but rather just try and cover some quick points that may help make it easier to decide if the Curve 8520 is the right...

Sprint BlackBerry Tour 9630 Review

Posted by David Boyd on 11 Aug 2009 9:54 am
The new BlackBerry Tour smartphone launched on the Sprint Network last month, and it was a highly anticipated device for many Sprint users. Up until the launch of the Tour, the only options for BlackBerry smartphones for Sprint users were the Curve 8330, 8830 World Phone, and the Pearl 8130. While these are all great devices, none of them could compare to the BlackBerry Bold that was launched...

T-Mobile BlackBerry Curve 8520 First Impressions

Posted by Adam Zeis on 4 Aug 2009 3:56 pm
I received my Curve 8520 today (which is now available on T-Mobiles site) and was extatic to get it out of the box and start playing around. Kevin has given us his pre-release review of the entry-level device, but I was happy to have one to play with for myself as well. Mind you, I'm always happy to get a new device to review, but this one will be my first GSM device so I'm in for a totally...
