Blackberry Torch 9800 Paving the Way for Future Success!

The Blackberry Torch 9800 is a smartphone device that is designed to compete on equal terms with the currnet favourite of the market place – the umpteen Android-based smartphones. rnIt has to be recognized here with RIM (Research in Motion) has though it fit to take in the combined might of the various highly successful Android run smartphones from rivals like HTC and Samsung in particular and others like Sony Ericsson, Motorola and LG, etc. It has adopted this approach probably with the view that tackling head on the immense might of the Apple iPhones will be very tall order for it and the sensitble thing would be to deal with the competition in small but concrete and meaningful steps. When looked at from this perspective it does make sense to bring out more and more Blackberry smartphone handsets that have the right mix of software and hardware features that, in turn can stand up to the stature and functionality levels of the various Android smartphones. We are talking here about, more particularly, smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S2, HTC Desire HD, and the HTC Incredible S, etc. The Blackberry Torch 9800 indeed is a smartphone that does carry some Android like attibutes in it.

To begin with, RIM has given the Blackberry Torch 9800 both a full QWERTY physical key board along with the optical track pad (this is as we know a conventional strength with all Blackberry smartphones) and also a fine highly functional and attractive touch sensitive screen. This is the first time the Canada-based mobile phone company has done this and to its credit has done a fantastic job of its too.! The Torch 9800 is also available in the White version and this does make for an attractive alternative option to the staid black editions.

You do have the best of web browsing, E-mailing as well as multi-tasking features. The Blackberry Operating System Version 6.0 runs the smartphone handset even as the combined might of the Marvell PXA940 running at 624 MHz and Image System Processor ST Microelectronics STV0987 takes care of the power requirements.
