BlackBerry Bold 9790 review: Bold and the budget - read the full textOh, look - it's another BlackBerry Bold! But what's the catch? And where is the difference really? Sure it looks a bit smaller than the 9900 but it's the same QWERTY / touchscreen combo. So far, so good. Now, let's play spot the difference...

Keep away from it, average camera, touch screen can be annoying with accidental touch dials, screen is not a huge improvement, my bb crashed and reset itself every second day, mostly battery life is horrible, heavy users will last until 3pm same day without recharge!

It DOES have radio ! And if you buy good headset, audio output is incredibly good (better than s2, wave2)

I wonder why blackberry can not come up with a good design that has the same features as the 9900 with durable qualities unlike poor battery of d 9900 n hanging we do xpirience in d fon couple wif d muting that will disable ur mouth piece n ear piece at d same time.
