Intro

The BlackBerry Bold 9700 Onyx is a high-end mobile phone with a slew of great communication options. Plus it offers fast web access, a superb 3.2 megapixel camera and a QWERTY keyboard.

The BlackBerry Bold 9700 is a truly next generation mobile communications device. But it’s still got all the traditional strengths of email-optimised BlackBerrys that have made them such a hit with business users and consumers alike.

That means that you’ll benefit from brilliant push email functionality. This means that all your messages are sent directly to your handset, saving valuable mintues that you would otherwise spending pulling them down from a server.

Of course, there’s also a handy QWERTY keyboard, which is superb for entering large amounts of text quickly and composing long emails. And for those moments when you’ve got work while on you’re on the go, the handset is equipped with a handy document editor that enables you work on Microsoft Office packages.

Elsewhere, the BlackBerry Bold 9700 offers super-fast web browsing and downloads, and a host of other connectivity options, including Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Plus there’s a MP3 player onboard, too, to keep you entertained.

Other features of the BlackBerry Bold 9700 include an optical trackpad, a 3.5mm headphone jack, microSD card support, a 3.2 megapixel camera with image stabilization, organiser functions and a speakerphone.

This Phone is Awesome- It has to be the best phone on the market right now. The Iphone only bests this phone in 1 area and thats there are more apps for Iphone.

I am hoping blackberry will catch up as this phone is a true knock out. This phone exudes class.

It changed my life this phone - genuinely. Can finally do business on the move. I'd be lost without my Bold now.
