BlackBerry Bold 9700

June 20th, 2010

bold-9700-review-5BlackBerry Bold 9700 and one of BlackBerry’s most petite handsets, the Curve 8900, look and feel practically as if they were stamped from the same die. Both measure exactly 4.29 inches tall and 2.36 inches wide, with the Bold packing just a smidge of extra flab on the belly for a thickness of 0.56 inches and weight of 4.3 ounces with battery. Make no mistake: the extra decimals can’t do much to diminish the superbly pocketable size and weight of the new Bold, which sidles up right next to the very similar Curve 8900 as one of the most portable smartphones we’ve ever tested.Like almost all BlackBerrys, the Bold 9700 places the screen and QWERTY keyboard front and center, with a strip of the most commonly used controls (talk, end call, back, etc.) dividing the two, easily accessible with a thumb. On the right-hand side, a bubbled-out volume rocker and camera shutter button make it easy to access those dedicated functions.

Toshiba launches world’s fastest mobile phone

May 16th, 2010

tg01-540x334The device is available on a 24-month, £39.15 per month plan from Orange as of today.
Unfortunately the phone is let down by its OS – Windows 6.1. The INQ had a fumble with the handset at the launch event last night, but even the Tosh and Orange demonstrators found it a tad cumbersome to navigate at times.

Samsung S3650 Corby

April 21st, 2010

Samsung-Corby-925590535sSamsung S3650 Corby is a very fresh looking handset too – distinct shape and bold paintjobs. It won’t really make much sense in adult hands but the Fashion Jackets – bright-colored interchangeable rear covers – are perhaps as strong a selling point as the capacitive touchscreen. There’re two extra Jackets in the retail box to make the time spent with the S3650 Corby even more personal experience.
