i have the Bold, and its fucking shit.

when i 1st got it i thought it was top.

but it seems to be extremely unreliable. (Strangely they are Canadian, which is as good as french so no surprise about questionable reliability)

i have made so many vids of shit you are never seeing again, and when i have gone to play it says

"Video was recorded in an unsupported format and therefore cannot be played"

YOU FUCKING RECORDED IT YOU CANADIAN DICK!

Thats not it either, it turns off regularly and i miss important calls and emails, pus it seems to be less and less battery efficient every day... a full charge now last just under 4 hours, so i have had to purchase an in car charger


Theres more, but i just cant think right now

the reason i posted this was coz i walked into my gaming room and found my kitten USING my PC... now tell me where you have ever seen a cat using a pc on its own? i sneakily recorded a vid of it aswel, but when i tried to replay the vid i got the dreaded error message.

EDIT: Just about to use the phone after i posted and it must know i am slagging it off, it has corrupted my memory card and i have now lost every pic and vid i have ever made... great


THANKS A BUNCH CANADA!

The cat was on Saxp aswel! lol

must of been the last tab i had open, it was kncking the mouse and watching it move on screen. clever as fuck, but funny as fuck. and also quite scary!

explains why i keep getting catnip turning up from ebay! lol

Yer it will do with the curve... not the best model they made... but then again, they marketed the bold as the best they have ever created! and its garbage!

Thats only on the old range tbh....the latest handsets have the touchpad.

To be fair though the trackball is awesome as long as you know how to clean it properly.

Yer, the track ball is pretty good, but the touch pad is pretty good. but its annoying as its just a light sensor. so you dont actually need to touch it to move the cursor... which can get annoying.

Maybe its a Manchester thing then!

i have the bold and its fucking up more and more every day...

2 of my mates have them curves and there fucked, one of them has been back to Blackberry for repairs 4 times!

and my missus has a curve and hers freezes constantly.

If you havent got one, and thinking about it, DONT BOTHER!

get any Android phone!!!!!!

ANY

4 times it had to be sent of for replacement, it's rediculous!

Blackberry are a waste of space.

I hated mine about a month after I got it.

Thought it was average before that.

Not good phones IMO.

I've just upgraded from my Curve to an iPhone 4. Sooo much fucking better.
Me and the girlfriend both had a Curve and the Bold and both were shit! Cheap and nasty as well, Blackberry's are overrated.

Is it just me that thinks the iphone is shit??? I got an upgrade a few weeks back and tried the iphone to see if i liked it and its just retarded........

Imo people buy an iphone because its a fashion accessory.

Only reason i got blackberry instead of iPhone was every tom dick and harry has an iPhone. But now i've got blackberry and it keeps messing up, had it replaced once already, its doing my head in. Starting to wish i got iPhone just because my mates had one and he hasn't had any problems with it.

That statement depends on your age, the blackberry is definitely more trendy for teenagers/young adults at the moment! Does my head in all these people posting their BB pins on facebook.

only because they can't afford / parents won't pay for iPhone.

iPhone has more functionality and had loads of apps the others only have a fraction of the number of apps.

iphones are gash.. i had one... now i got a blackberry and that is gash!

great

i think its time to try another Android as the last one i had was SWEET, but i swapped it for an iphone...bad mistake!

my mate has the iphone 3GS, and loves it...

Got offered a straight swap for one the other day on gumtree, maybe i will try it out again, but i really want an android...

love my iphone.

Before I had it I never used to take my phone anywhere. Much preferred being uncontactable. But my iphone comes everywhere. I can't remember how I coped without the apps.

I can't work blackberrys though, I think they look nice though. I'd say they were more of a fashion accessory.

Fair enough. I can understand people not liking them because of typing etc.
