Blackberry Bold - a very popular model
People have been Blackberry picking. In this, the age of the iPhone, everyone wants to get their hands on their very own cleverphone. Sorry, I mean smartphone. But why the Blackberry?
I, for one, have no idea. Yes, they are a bit different and yes, they are good in the email department. But there’s a lot more you can get from other devices without having to sacrifice any more money.
For me, the best bet has to be the wonderful HTC HD2. I have been wondering about what phone to get when my contract comes to and end, and this one is a surefire contender. This is a true smartphone.
HTC HD2 - like the iPhone, but not
I’m sure you’ll agree its a wonderful looking piece of equipment. The HD2 runs on Windows Mobile’s operating system, which is still very much up-and-coming and constantly improving. But don’t be put off, for there are new ‘apps’, or applications being developed and added every single day. Not only does it do emails (and it does them very well), but it does a heck of a lot more. It can be a sat nav, it can be a Twittering device, it can take you to any webpage on the internet, it can be used as a device to watch YouTube videos. Many see this as a big threat to the iPhone and some see it as an alternative to the iPhone. However, I think that it is a great phone in its own right and should be recognised as such. And the best thing of all is that you can even use it if you have fat fingers. (Something you can’t do with those miniscule buttons on most Blackberry phones!)
You can see a full review of this phone here on Tracy and Matt’s technology blog.
