Compare Bold 9000 white Deals

The Blackberry Bold 9000 in striking white is a departure from orthodox RIM Blackberry devices heading, as it does, into the world of all-singing, all-dancing superphones. For a start it connects to the internet via 3.5Gb High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) and it has Wi-fi for high-speed email and Web access almost everywhere you go - plus GPS satnav to find out where you are!

The full QWERTY keypad is there – each key is raised at one edge for eas of use - plus a wide screen – and the resolution is what led to its name: clear and bold, so idea for reading emails (or watching videos).

The music player supports the usual formats such as MP3 and the audio can be very loud – good for hands-free or conference calling. There is a 3.5 mm headphone jack, so you are not restricted to the ones in the box – although it is on the side of 9000 rather than more logically at the top. It comes with a 2 megapixel camera – not much for today’s specifications – but ok for basic snapshots.

Battery life is rated at four hours’ talk time or 10 days standby from a full charge.
