Canadian manufacturer RIM has a lot of faith in the new BlackBerry Torch 9800 and there is a lot of reasons why this is obvious. This is the first smartphone to be armed with both touchscreen capabilities as well as the standard QWERTY keyboard.
The Torch is also the first BlackBerry handset to come with App World as well as the BlackBerry 6 OS. The Canadian manufacturer can now cultivate a new image for the BlackBerry 6 as not just a secured operating system but a sleek one as well.
The Torch was released on the American market in August but British consumers can now have access to the smartphone on both Vodafone and Orange. Vodafone consumers can get access to the Torch at absolutely no cost if they sign up for a £35-a-month business plan. British consumers didn’t get quick access to the smartphone due to a couple of problems with the device’s camera autofocus. With the issues solved, the Torch is now available as one of the best BlackBerry devices ever.
The Torch weighs at 161 g which means it’s quite heavy when compared with some late versions of the Bold. It’s however quite light compared with the first Bold version that was released on the market. It also has the same high quality keyboard with a back light just like the Bold 9700. It’s also easy to type messages on the Torch due to the slide out keypad which means your fingers won’t interfere with the touchscreen. The keypad balance also means that you can use one hand to type on the keypad effectively.
The ability of the keypad to slide from bottom means that you can effectively type messages without having to change the resolution unlike most Android and Windows Mobile devices on the market currently.
The Torch is the best BlackBerry device on the market at the moment in terms of camera quality at 5MPS. The GPS also gives you the ability to categorize images according to the city you took them. The camera is also easy to use due to the simple interface.
The phone also gives you the ability to capture videos at 24fps which gives very quality videos. Other features include a 624 MHZ just like the Bold 9700, 3.2 inch screen with a resolution of 360x 480 pixels, etc.
