Review: BlackBerry Bold 2

It is sleeker, smarter and inherits the faux leather and crome edges from its predecessor. Bold 2 or BlackBerry Bold 9700 is a great looker and packs a punch, inside.

It is a modernised version of Bold 9000. And makes for a fitting successor. The optical track pad that replaces the trackball. Track pad makes navigation much easier with better control.

Keys have become slightly smaller. Screen too is smaller, which is not a positive change when big screens are in.

Bold 2 boasts of Blackberry's new operating system 5.0 that brings many new features.

Mails on Blackberry will be a different experience. You can now flag your mails, prioritise and read mails in thread format. Same features can be applied for SMS as well.

Bold 9700 has Messenger 5.0., in which you can add your picture, Blackberry messenger will also display the song you are listening to and time zone. You can create groups and read other's blackberry codes.

Option for security wipe lets you choose between contacts, applications and media card.

Bold-2 has a 3.2 megapixel camera an improvement from bold one's 2 MP. Media user interface has some improvements. You can slide through pictures without using p and n alphabets...simply use the optical track pad. Overall performance of Bold 2 is snappier because of the operating system.

Bold 9700 is priced between Rs 33,990 to 31990 in different parts of the country.

For all Blackberry Bold users, this one will surely not be a disappointment.
