Blackberry Torch 9800 Paving the Way for Future Success!

All Blackberry smartphones have to deal with plenty of competition. This comes in the form of the Apple iPhones and the increasing number of smartphones that run on Android from Samsung, HTC, and to a lesser extent from Sony Ericsson, Motorola and LG. Probably RIM (Research in Motion) has thought it fit to take on the might of the Android smartphones first and thereby bring itself to the level of the iPhones and then see what happens. Whatever reason for this approach, the Blackberry Torch 9800 indeed is a major improvement on most of the aspects that one normally associates with the Android phones and generally absent in Blackberry smartphones. The Blackberry Torch 9800 is the first ever Blackberry Smartphone to sport a touch sensitive screen. Not only this, the Torch 9800 also has the conventional QWERTY physical key board to boot. It was indeed a bold and ambitious move on the part of the Canada-based mobile phone company to opt to deliver big time on both the aspects – touchscreen as well as the full QWERTY key board along with the optical key pad. The outcome is superb. As you are availing the effects that a touch sensitive screen brings along with the traditional facility of the ability to key in data using a key board. By Blackberry standards, it has been generous in giving a 3.2 inches wide touchscreen that is capable of displaying images, video clips, etc with the impressive resolution of 480 x 360 pixels resolution. Not only this, the Blackberry Torch 9800 also shows enhancements in a few other key areas as well. You have the latest in the Blackberry Operating System Version 6.0 of the operating platform as well as  the 1 Ghz processor that are put together good enough to carry out the various functions including ensuring 3G network browsing speeds and E-mailing. Working on multiple E-mail accounts is very much a possibility. The access given to the various Blackberry Applications World is also a big, big plus And apart from the touchscreen, it is the number of third party applications that sets the Android smartphones and the Apple iPhones apart. Bloomberg, Web Video Search, Slacker Radio Plus, CNN and the Weather Channel are a few of the pre-loaded channels found in this Blackberry device. The five mega pixel camera also works fine. O2, Orange, and T-Mobile are a few of the network service providers who have introduced a number of cheap Blackberry Torch 9800 deals. The smartphone handset is available for free under several contract deals that expect you to pay only below £ 20 per month for a 24 month plan.
