Bold 9700 White Review

If you want the best of what BlackBerry has to offer you will want to take a closer look at the BlackBerry Bold 9700 White. This smartphone has the best of the mobile technology that is currently available with RIM mobile devices. The 9700 Bold White is small, but still comes packed with great features including WiFi, 3G, and GPS.

One of the main problems with the BlackBerry White 9700 is the web browser, but this is something that has been a problem for all of the BlackBerry mobiles. Aside from this problem, you will get an all around great smartphone with the Bold 9700 White; it offers some great messaging features, and much more.

Most people think of BlackBerry devices as a bulky and wide eyesore, but with the BlackBerry Bold 9700 White you get a compact and sleek mobile that is attractive enough to catch the eye of even the most fashion conscious individuals. The 9700 Bold White measures 4.29 x 2.36 x 0.56 inches and weighs 4.3 ounces, which is a little heavy, but still not as bulky as most BlackBerry devices.

Of course when a mobile phone is smaller, often the screen is reduced in size as well; with the BlackBerry Bold 9700 White the display is only 2.44-inches, which is slightly smaller than what you get with other BlackBerry models. Although smaller, the screen provides a bright and colorful display; the only time you will notice the lack of size is when viewing video or web pages.

For sending text messages and email the BlackBerry White 9700 features a full QWERTY keyboard. Due to the large keys that come with this keyboard it is easy to enter text for messages and email.

Some additional features that you get with the Bold 9700 include voice-activated dialing, a speakerphone, conference calling, visual voice mail, as well as text and multimedia messaging. For crisp and clear audio, this smartphone features background noise suppression technology, which makes the call quality much better. You will also get Bluetooth, as well as GPS.

Some of the business tools the BlackBerry Bold 9700 White comes with are email support, as well as an attachment viewer. For keeping in touch you also get support for several Instant Messaging clients, including ICQ, Yahoo, and Windows Live, plus several others.

Another nice business tool that comes with the 9700 Bold White is DataViz Documents To Go Standard Edition; with this you can edit Word documents, as well as Excel and PowerPoint.

For multimedia features there is a media player that supports a wide range of both video and audio files, plus you get a built in 3.2-megapixel camera that offers flash and auto focus, as well as video recording capabilities.

The BlackBerry is an all around great smartphone and perfect for someone that wants a mobile to use for home, as well as business.
