BlackBerry Bold 9700 Hits India

RIM's has announced the launch of its latest BlackBerry, the 9700 Bold in India. Targetted at the upwardly mobile executives of today, the phone is a decent addition to the existing line up of BlackBerry devices.

The Bold 9700 features the new BlackBerry Trackball and an optical trackpad and also comes with a faster 624MHz processor that should enable zippier performance.

As for the features, here is what the latest Bold from BlackBerry has in store for you. It has a large 2.1-inch screen capable of a high 480x360 pixel resolution, at the front and 256MB of onboard memory - expandable with the addition of a microSD card. At the rear is the decent 3.2 megapixel camera that should be able to take decent images. The camera is also capable of recording videos. To help you in low light conditions, there is an LED flash too at the rear. It has a 1500 mAh battery that is rated to power the phone for 6 hours if you talk continuously.


The phone runs BlackBerry OS 5 and will set you back by a cool Rs. 31,000 if you wish to get one. We're doubtful if folks other than REAL hardcore BlackBerry fans would ever think about buying this one - especially when you have the likes of the Sony Ericsson Satio, the Droid, the Xperia X10 and the Motorola Milestone and the likes at a similar price range.
