My first Blackberry device is
Blackberry Bold 9780 (called as Bold 3), a white color device was purchased
last two (2) years. It only take three (3) months using the Bold 9780, when I was
decided to change it to a new Blackberry Bold 9900 (called as Bold 4).
During my time in using Bold 9900;
Battery life
It was an issue when I first got
it. I get maxed out within 6 hours with my heavy usage of twitter and email. An
OS7 upgrade (OS 7.0.0.439) fixed that problem and I can get through the day on a
single charge. Searching for the answers on forums are indeed helpful, if you
have the patience.
Music Playback
What do I do when I am not
tweeting or replying to emails, I listen to music. I am on the go all the time,
and I need my music. And the experience is fair. The easy to control playback
controls on the BlackBerry Bold 9900 makes pausing tracks simple when I need
to.
Browsing
I will not hesitate to say that
the browsing experience on the BlackBerry Bold 9900 is better than I expected
for such a small device such as Blackberry Bold 9780. This is probably the only
time that I used the touch screen on the device. Pinch zooming and double tap
zoom are great assists. Pages load very fast. With support for multiple tabs, I
never realized that I have opened 9 tabs and still have the browser maintain
its shape.
There will be more apps on BlackBerry AppWorld. Thankfully, I still belong to a generation who uses a device for its main
purpose, in this case communications. Be it messaging, email or tweeting, the
apps I used are conventionally limited, yet the benefit that it gave toward my
life professionally and personally are immense. It is no longer a matter of
potential to realize how one can benefit from Blackberry usage, but a matter of
when, one wants to gain.
