Blackberry Bold vs Apple iPhone: review

[editor]

Really good article comparing the pros and cons of the two 'superphones' here:

If the iPhone had a proper keyboard, it would get my vote, but if I had to buy one of them now, I'd probably go with the Bold because of the keyboard and proper email support - although there's nothing tempting enough in either to make me want to get rid of my Centro right now.

Excellent article...thanks for that. Gets into the nitty gritty of actually using the devices, rather than the usual rubbish where you wonder whether the journo has used the device for more than a day.

Well worth a read for anyone who is deciding between RIM and Apple.

Yeah, it's a refreshingly well written article.

Though Nokia have just made the choice even more complicated.....IMHO.



I like that Boy genius report site - only found it the other day and the review on there definitely influenced my Nokia purchase.

Boy Genius is excellent.

Word just in: T Mobile UK will be offering the Bold from September. No pricing yet.

Oh right...should be interesting to see how they price it. T Mobile have been doing some ok deals BB wise lately (free Curve or Pearl on a 35 a month contract)...

35 a month....not bad at all....although mine is free Also prefer Vodafone over T Mobile but either way the competition between networks and devices has to be a good thing.
