Holding the OFF button (red phone) for several seconds switches the phone off but at the same time a message appears with something like "will switch ON again on this and this date", which really happens and drains the battery till my next use of the phone. How can I avoid this? Please, comment. Best regards, DZ

  • how to use net connection guys

  • Yes it support whatsapp

  • Whatsapp is supported

  • Yes whatsapp is supported

  • The good: Nice desing, nothing beats a physical qwerty keyboard. Nice camera. Media buttons! Mine has a broken touchescreen, so the trackpad is a life saver (100% usable even without the touchscreen). The battery can easly last 3 days. The complete 4GB as internal memory, plus SD card. No bloatware. Good grip. The bad: You need to restart it (battery pull) once a day thanks to the Blackberry OS 6 or else you don't receive Whatsapps, or IP calls, or even can't browse, it's a PITA. Calls and SMS works allways well. Performance!!! it stutters and lags on some contents (images on Whatsapp for example). If a website is too complex, the browser just closes the tab and it's almost imposible to do tabbed browsing unless all tabs are ultra-simple mobile websites. The lock button is in a bad place. Little use for the touchscreen. Bad filming resolution. VERY few apps, it's being slowly discontinuated, so it's getting useless and useless. The ugly: BIS!!! it's a (really bad) joke here in Argentina. Only a Java based Gameboy emulator (without working sound!)... Long story short, it's an awesome feature-phone with HTML5 support, also it's an aweful smartphone. It's impossible, but Android (even 2.3) on this phone would rock so bad, every iPhone and Galaxy Sx on a 1Km. radius would crack their screens. Just because of it's awesomeness.

  • Try performing a software reset, generally with any non hardware issue this will do the job. step 1. Turn of the manually if possible, if step is not possible move to step 2. step 2. remove the battery. step 3. hold the # and power button for 20 seconds. step 4. put the battery back into the phone, as well as the back door to the phone.

  • I've had this Blackberry Torch since February of 2011 and today is may 9th, 2014. I just recently dropped it in a pool but put it in rice for a couple of days and it's working again. Overall, I had a good 3 years + with this phone. The battery and talk time have decreased significantly due to usage. I surfed the web and watched youtube videos often on Data. I think i shot the battery because of the strenuous footage so now, whenever I take a picture or watch a youtube video, the battery gets shot and loses a lot of power. It's time for a new phone, but i got accustommed to the blackberry and I think i'm going to go for the Z10 now in 2014. Cheers Friends.

I would like some updates but nothing enough to make me give up my BB. I would like BB to have a better rep about staying around. Please come out with a grabbing new phone with a lot of the same good features plus updates. Grow your market share back with former & repeat customers. I would like a computer/TV/phone, bigger screen, keep keyboard within easy use of finger touch and slider design is perfect.

  • Why does my Torch 9800 say that it has a "Trackball" in the settings instead of "Trackpad" because now the Trackpad doesn't scroll at all and I can't fix it. Please can someone help me! I've tried re-installing the latest and oldest Firmware and formatting my phone but nothing works! Thank you..

  • Had same problem....suddenly i had a stronger usb charger and it works...output 2amp on 5 volts

  • Can I download and make a call for the Line, Viber or we chat apps?

  • I understand that some people have had problems with this phone, whether it be video streaming, touch screen failing or other problems, it is all to do with the batch of phones that have been released. I have one of the good batches and haven't had a single problem with this phone in the whole 3 years I have had it. I appreciate that you might have your own opinions, but this phone is a great phone and always make sure you get a decent one, and you look after them.

  • I have mixed feelings about the Torch 9800 I really like having the option of larger screen for viewing photos compared with traditional blackberry which I had previously, and love the slide out querty keyboard for serious texting. Only downside is it stopped receiving my emails 3 times in 5 months, and it is not easy to get them back!! The only way I am able to do so is by going into O2 store in nearest town and getting them to wipe the phone and start again. This would normally be easily resolved by going into set up and then clicking on email, but the email button is frozen until phone is wiped.

  • I HAVE a problem that in my bb torch 9800 i have installed bb world for downloading apps nd games.It is of latest version but the bb wrold is not running even i have data services even there is appropriate netwrok ,Why???

  • Comparing with a new incoming davis aka 9220 with os 7, this is better in performance even if i compared with bold 97 series, the secret is keep clean the memory by clean up using internal program and keep cache of the bbm group low, i hv my self 10 groups active and never experienced with slowing down, the internet are fast, and now the softawares/themes are widely avail, the one i like is weather that showing the weather at home screen just like android, two ways of keyboards clearly add the options, and seeing the back its just like z10, so iam happry using this for 2 years now

  • nice phone bt u av to understand the manual b4 u start using the fone. keep it up

  • Does this have a tv?

  • I've used this phone for a year. and yes, the battery only lasts for less than 4 hours. it freezes frequently. sad to think it was a good phone back during those years.

  • I hate it, not user frendly

  • slowest phone in the world..

  • its battery is worst but other features are good overall it is a average phone

  • The worst phone i have used poor battery poor display and keep on freezing never ever buy this crap thing

  • This one the strongest Blackberry�s I ever used. This one is my Wife�s and my daughter through it out the second story window after she grabbed it and my wife, Caroline chased after her. It still works perfect.

  • its aweaome I enjoy it plus its good for reseach and work it also have apps dat u have to download I enjoy it

  • I was downloading an application that conflicted with the OS. I had to format it and downloaded another OS but I could see my office application again. How can I get the Microsoft office application back? I wanted to buy but was told I cannot buy for my phone because it comes with it. What should I do? How can I do it by myself?

  • It's good one since have a lot of things in general

  • loved the phone when i first bought it. loved the qwerty keypad. its a good fone even though i had so many problems with the blackberry app world. was the best fone at the time but i wouldnt ever go back to blackberyy again even though i used to love bbm. the battery life is very poor too,. a good 100 percent charge wouldnt even last me half a day even though i haredly used my fone most day.

  • I had this phone for almost a year now. Its a 2010 model, and works well. Negatives about this phone are you can charge it until its 100% full, within 20 minutes battery will drain, and shut off. The torch shuts on and off when ever it desires, answers calls whenever. You may need to take out the battery and restart it a couple times if this occurs. Over all its an alright phone for now

  • i rally like ...............

  • Ishu......I wanna buy!

  • is quietly good to be call touch but upgrade the OS be more compactly work like android and iphone appications run.

  • Am lvng thc fon.user friendly plus a very powerful camera.oohh yea ts worth to b called a TORCH

  • sir I have this phone. I want to sale my Bb 9800. I want to change my phone.

  • WORST PHONE EVER MADE! Ive had the blackberry torch for over 16 months and i must say this cant get any worse. If you forget the fact the battery is awful and wont last over 6 hours, you then have to take into account the fact it cuts out calls, deletes your information, turns itself off when it fancies! Do i even need to mention the poor quality and the fact it sends electric shocks from the mic when you put it on charge. The only good thing about this phone it that it is nearly indestructible! ive dropped it many times and its even vibrated itself into the bath, it still lives on....... (ish)

  • love this phone problem,its nowhere to be found please help...

  • Best mobile ever.

  • Jus perfect for my business.....love what blackberry is doing...kudos

Please be aware from BLACKBERRY.

  • 2 years ago I got my first smart phone. It was a black berry curve and I loved the phone mainly because I could type so much faster with a button keyboard. I just bought a used bb torch because I thught it would be the best of both worlds with a descent sized touch screen and keeping the keyboard. I gave up an att fusion and I am really miising the fusions fm radio, the talk to type features and all the other cool apps. The torch was the phone I thought I had to have but now that it is two years old I guess its an out dated dinosaur. it will fetch 38 big ones on gazelle after I paid 100 for it about 6 weeks ago. its a nice phone if you can pay out for a good plan. but if you want to try to do a pre pay plan it will act like a 20 year optionless phone

  • Use 9800 & 9780 since november 2011. Like both, but torch has got a shity battery. I had already changed 3 of them. Now I gonna try Q10 & Z10.

  • Lets face it. Blackberrys are the last choice in smart phones. Too expensive, not user friendly, behind the market by a long way. I have a new Blackberry Q10 (a work phone) it is a lot better than previous models. It is still behind the market though, can't see it in sunlight, the screen is way too small but it is getting to where smart phones were 2-3 years ago and that about says why the blackberry is failing in the market place.

  • although it a nyc fone but it do hang nd does nt load afta rebooting.... I dnt knw d reason....

  • Sexy cell in the world i love it ummmmah:-*

  • Maybe you have some app that consumes battery. try pressing for a sec the BB button and it shows all the apps that are opened. then you can close with the 'return' key the one that's more consuming. Normally there are 5 opened: home, phone, bbm, browser and messages. If this does not help, try removing the battery for 30 secs.

  • good features manages rough conditions but very poor otherwise.

  • This is the worst phone I've ever used and a complete waste of money for such an expensive gadget. The phone is slow, lags often, freezes, turns itself off, loses signal frequently, horrible battery life-cant even go for a day with normal usage, mediocre camera, bad video recording, coating around the screen starting coming off after a year of usage-the phone looks so ugly now. The only positive aspect is, phone is very sturdy and resistant to drops but this doesnt make it worth that much money.

  • I agree. This is the worst phone I've ever used and a complete waste of money. Slow, lags often, freezes, turns itself off, loses signal frequently, horrible battery life-cant even go for a day with normal usage, mediocre camera, bad video recording, coating around the screen starting coming off after a year of usage-the phone looks so ugly now.

  • which is better blackberry torch 9800 or bold 9700 ?

  • Hey Pavi, No cause for alarm on this, just ensure that you hand it over to a very careful and reputable phone engineer who knows what he is doing and not just any roadside quack who may misplace or excuse away negligence, the pro may charge more but it's worth it. good luck.

  • Sam, first, it is possible to use the 9800 for a whole year or two without experiencing any slide ribbon problem, it's called maintenance culture. however, since any mechanism that slides or gears consistently over a certain period will definitely wear, it is only advisable that you so slide less and it will last longer. i have one myself and it is in top notch.

  • i got blackberry torch and it's incredible woow what a phone y

  • Hi, I gave been using heavily this phone since nov 2010. It has suffered a lot (really heavy use) and also have fallen more than once to hit the floor. It may not be or have ever been for that matter, the most up to date phone (maybe far from this in this respect) but it is SOLID and a SOLDIER. No problem with the slider or ribbons or anything AT ALL. Keeps running and going through hell and always comes out a winner. I have not regretted getting this phone, not one second. That said, it is a barebones specs wise especially nowadays but it is a really sturdy phone.

  • I just got this phone. I saw it had just released in the phone shop today and wow! What a phone! I think this is by far the best, smartest, fastest and most state-of-the-art phone I have ever used. It's running the soon to be release BB11 OS platform. Anybody who has the now defunct BBZ10 running the out-of-date BB10 OS will love this when they can get their hands on it! Regards, A. Liar

  • well why not i think that its an amazing thing to have

  • I have one myself. It is a decent phone, however! If you are looking to download the same apps as your friends with iPhones and Androids, then this isn't the phone for you. Blackberry's market share is rapidly decreasing, therefore app developers prioritize developing apps for the bigger markets, if that makes sense. If that is not what you are looking for, then this is a fine phone. Has the basic smartphone features as listed above, and this is one of the few smartphones today that has actual buttons =O So your call.

  • 1. My Blackberry Torch 9800, bearing IMEI 355466044665424, recently developed a snag - I stopped getting ringtone. I took the phone to its authorised and only service centre at Bhopal ---- M/s Sampark System on 15 November 2011. It was examined by a front office personnel, whose mobile number is 9039094999. He told me that the ringer of the instrument needed to be replaced. I asked him to replace the ringer and enquired about the expected cost. His reply was shocking. The person told me that it will cost me Rs 2,200 if I "do not want a receipt." I insisted that I wanted a receipt for the payment. He told me that in that case the instrument had to be sent to Bangalore for repairs and it would cost me around Rs 7,800. eyes. 2. Apparently, the Blackberry authorised service centre at Bhopal is committing a felony by not issuing receipt for services rendered, thereby cheating the public exchequer. It is probably cheating RIM too because if it does not issue a receipt for services rendered, he does not intend to keep the company in the loop. As Sampark System is its only authorised representative at Bhopal, is not Blackberry is directly responsible for encouraging this kind of malpractice? 3. With this kind of lousy after-sales service, no wonder Blackberry is going downhill and other mobile companies are prospering at its cost.

These things are heavy, that means they are made for real life not cartoon ones, but if you like cheap lightweight plasticky things then enjoy your galaxy, a young guy at work bought an s3 5 weeks ago, already needs t0 put a pen under the charger connector to get it to work, be interesting to see how his $1000nz phone is performing (or not) in another 5weeks, blackberries are tough phones...

  • i juz bought torch 9800 ... at first , i so worried about the performance .... but guys , just believe me ,,, its fucking awesome smartphones if u know how tu use well .... i just made a right choices .... say yeahh for TORCH 9800 !!!

  • First, run the BB desktop manager. Then connect the device with data cable and wait until it appears "connected/Sync all" (see lower right of the window). Finally, click the mobile internet (lower left side)

  • HEY bb geek I'm about to buy a BB Totch 9800, I really like the features it, as a 1st time BB buyer, do you think it will be a good buy?

  • The Torch 9800 has the worst battery quality, it can't handle basic internet usage. I pay $76 with Bell and it can't handle internet usage. Such a ripoff.

  • thumbs up for rim and blackberry!!! i have had 8520,9700,9650,9380 blackberry's 9800 is one of the best berry. touch and type, push email,social apps camera , if you are a blogger txter,messenger savvy then use bb!!! so what if few apps from bb do u need thousand apps on your phone LOL blackberry is a messaging social tool!! battery depends on how u used the phone... and this is not a toy!! ios and android they are known for games apps... but you need a smartphone not a gaming console..... dont tell that ios or android are good.... no best smartphones , it is how u used it and the depends on the features of the phone... its a phone/tool not a TOY!!!!!!

  • D problem is everywhere.. U jst av 2 get a beta line coz d prob is always 4rm d line.

  • there are pros and cons in this 9800/9810 smartphones pros: for those who appreciate a larger screen without compromising it while texting torch is one of the best because it has dedicated qwerty keyboard. it has lot of shortcut keys and has basic buttons for music, which is more convenient. resolution, fairly good, pictures of 5mp not that stunning but still a good one. handy. battery life, it goes for a day depends upon how you use it, data associated programs consume most of your battery, its normal for all smartphones. dont worry about the slide thing, it is well built. cons: if you are fascinated by tons of applications and games, BB has limited offer, (they should really work on it), its not the best in it but competent. no secondary camera which also suggests video calling is not supported, likewise skype. however you can still use the chat, which 3rd party apps offer. apps always need to be upgraded, a hassle one. still... it is a recommended smartphone, and if it fits your lifestyle you will find it one of the best. 9800 vs 9810? Go for 9810 it is the upgraded version of 9800

  • how can i install it to my laptop so that i can use it as a modem?

  • have it both. you could not find all the applications you want in appworld, BB should work on it very hard, seriously. torch is good, no problem with slide.

  • worstphone no skype, no viber, samsunggalaxy y is better than this phone the feature said no secondary cam, so expect no skype. hello. and you even compare it with the cheap Y (no secondary cam) so lame comparison. it is far more better than what you are claiming better? galaxy y. FYI they already released viber in appworld

  • as far as i know, all applications like FB,twitter etc that you can find in the APPworld needs the BIS and it is activated by local network provider, or you would subscribed otherwise the use of wifi can only be use through browsing. try to log FB in your browser and i assure you 100% you can open the account. further, without the BIS,applications you download or preinstalled are useless.

  • purchase the pdf viewer on APP world the sad thing this phone wasnt really made for gamers, and i agree no skype, (they should really put some effort here) but theres a viber but they need to update. actually you can use skype through other 3rd party apps like IM+ etc

  • hmmm... i can say that the Torch is the same with other smartphones, comparing with battery life, it would just lasts for a day or lucky for 2 days, it depends how you would use the phone, dont browse, dont use 3G, dont do social network or any related data, and i assure you it would lasts longer. any data related programs will surely consume much of your battery.

  • do you read specs? perhaps you dont understand technical details its like saying iP4 is same as iP4s

  • Please tell me what the problem is when i load a picture on fb that is a problem always say NO CAPTION why?that is 3 weeks now and frustrated

  • Which one is better, Nokia E7 or Blackberry torch 9810? Please reply as I won't to exchange my Nokia E7 with Blackberry 9810

  • In order to make Video calls, You can attach a Web cam onto the Mobile.

  • my phone say supplemenary servive error help idont know what to do coz i cant call or recieve calls

  • can u play hd video 1280x720 or 1920x1080 on torch 9800?

  • since it has no secondary camera is there a way to take and receive video calls?if there's no front camera how can the caller see me?any idea to overcome this problem?

  • Already covered this before, by myself and others here, but needs repeating. To everyone here thinking of getting this phone or the 9810. If priced about the same, get the 9810. I own a 9810 and have owned a 9800 and I can tell you from personal experience that the 9810 is better performance wise. It has a better screen resolution and double the processing power.The 9810 is the evolution of the 9800.

  • Not Only Differance in Processor, But Better Resolution Screen, More Memory 256MB more, More Storage 4GB more,Newer Operating System now Version & 7.0 & now Video Records in HD, So 9810 is Much Much Better Than the 9800.

  • Do t listern to anyone , i would rate the 9800 and 9810 at the same as they are really no different with just different processor

  • Do t listern to anyone , i would rate the 9800 and 9810 at the same as they are really no different with just different processor

  • no bro u cannot as torch 9800 has a 624mhz processor and for os7 we need a 1.2 ghz processor !

  • In a word, nope.

  • To everyone here thinking of getting this phone or the 9810. If priced about the same, get the 9810. I own a 9810 and have owned a 9800 and I can tell you from personal experience that the 9810 is better performance wise. It has a better screen resolution and double the processing power.The 9810 is the evolution of the 9800.

  • I had the 9800 and liked it a lot, but I have the 9810 and it is sooooooo much better! Specs wise it is what the 9800 should have been. Compare and see!

  • I get all my blackberry's free so price and purchasing is not an issue for me. That being said I do love my torch 9800, I love the size of the screen, the color and screen clarity is great. I have I4 and I prefer my torch over the I4 because as much as I would love to get used to touch screen only I cannot! I am a texter so having key board option on my phone is the best feature for me. This phone is fast, it responds well, the touch screen is also very responsive and in my opinion has a better response via touch than the I4. Over all I love blackberry's and this one is no exception I enjoy the phone and have had no problems out of it!....I do not work for Blackberry and I have been a Blackberry owner for over 10 yrs I have had several models because my dad works in IT and his company orders the newest ones when they come out for the employees and he always orders me one too.

  • i really thinking of gettin this phone but after reading all this comments, i'm scared..i really dont want tot do what i'll regret.

  • i love that phone

  • The Torch is a wonder but Sadly Blackberry should do something about countries that don't Support RIM to get a chance to download applications.

  • i hv this one but i think the battery is so bad and i wanna know why bb doesnt show us while someone is waiting it causes many problems with me

  • I m using this phone about 7 months ..but every time I got problem while using internet ...no good games.no viber .no skype ....it makes Me dissapointed .. Can anyone answer me how to use pdf file/read books?

  • hello...please help me...I got 9800 torch an ond the back of the phone btw the camera and flash light it is written 5mpx...but I saw on others 9800 that is written Torch... can anyone explain? tnx

  • i use my facebook application in my blackberry torch. but i'm not a plan user..but i have a wifi but icant connect to the facebook application?

  • guys, obviously the feature says 9800 has no secondary video means no skype or video calls or whatsoever.try asking bb company why?so why would you buy it in the first place if you want to have skype in your phone duh!

  • if you want to buy blackberry choose something else than 9800. i bought one a week ago and soon after i hate it. too slow, small CPU, plenty problems.

  • worstphone no skype, no viber, samsunggalaxy y is better than this phone

  • Just had my blackberry 9800 torch two months ago. I was so excited and now i wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone. it keeps freezing and has this stupid little black timer that keeps running and i cant use the phone.The battery last for three hours only. worst phone i have ever purchased.

  • Nope no skype for this blackberry gadget, try something that's start with an i and ends with Phone, just make sure you check the skype website for supported models. I think the change will save you some cash if you have a lot of friends on skype :-)

  • Stay away from blackberry. You'll regret it after buying it. Don't be fooled by the revies its been getting. The blackberry phone is not worth the money you gonna be spending. I got one no so long ago, and to my dismay was and still am dissapointed. If u don't believe me borrow one & try useful gadgets lyk video call/skype/tango besides the seemingly useleS bbm. U gonna thank me after this.

  • Simple just change phones and stay away from blackberry. It is just not worth the trouble. U can take it back to the store & tell them it's annoying and doesn't have what you are looking for. Then get a samsung its much better tha bb. U should be able to do a video call with a samsung.

  • I guess blackberry sucks hey. We must have been fooled by all these adverts we see. U must try an iPhone that has skype.

  • hey guys can i upgrade my BB Torch from BlackBerry OS 6.0 to BlackBerry OS 7.0? Anyone? Thanks in advance c",)

  • Anyone deciding to upgrade from this to the 9810, I wouldn't do it, I had a problem with this phone where it kept scrolling up, I got my money back and bought a 9810, big no no! It's battery was awful and with everything you did,the little black clock came up constantly, everyone's experience of the phone is different, but this was mine. I'd keep this one!

  • at&t tells me the 9800 is not compatable with global navigator, anyone know this to be true?

  • Does it say Device not for sale at the bottom of the phone?

  • is it upgradable to OS7? Thanks

  • that's not a motherboard, it's all about software... try to re-install your os dude... works for all types

  • I have this blackberry model, thing is my service provider cannot detect my device, so I cannot use Blackberry Messenger, anyone else who has the same scenario?? What did you do??

  • go for 9810 i personally have 9800 but the display clarity of 9810 is much better.

  • This is one of the worst phones ever. Hardly any apps on my phone but it is terribly slow and freezes often for nothing. The phone always unlocks itself in my pocket and does crazy things like calling people, taking pics, etc. Not to mention that my touchpad doesnt work :(

  • I had a Torch 9800 n now it isn't coming on or working the red light just keeps coming on n turning back off, carried it to fix n they told me it can't fix n dat i needed a new motherboard. Is there any hope in this phone again could someone help me plzz.

Same problem that some defective electonic part pushed the lower part of the slider out.Service centre demanded Rs.7250/- to replace slider even though it was within warranty period.Poor or no response to my mail from Blackberry people.How can I pay if it is not my fault?

  • Buy blackberry 9380 its more faster n it have OS7

  • It is very nice to watch porn using the torch especially iyot tube.thanks blackberry!!!!!

  • I think that you should decide between a 9810 and the 9380. The 9800 has an older operating system and a slower processor but it has a keyboard. I currently use a 9800 and it could be faster and more responsive but I like the big screen and keyboard. If you don't care about a keyboard then definitely get the 9380 because the resolution is the same as the 9800 but the operating system is better and the processor is faster. The camera is better on the 9800 but that might not matter to u. So basically- don't care about a keyboard then 9380, if u do then 9800

  • which is better? Blackbery 9780 or this?

  • I upgraded from 9700 to 9800. 9800 has good camera with a big screen but unresponsive touchscreen, and like all slider phones, it eventually has screen wobbling problem. So you end up having to qwerty on a blank screen and pray that there is no typo.

  • bb tourch 9800 is the best cell phone....

  • are you trying to say that an upgrade to 9810 is worth it? I was thinking of an upgrade but I am now starting considering an iPhone as my personal experience with 9800 is not that good (to be honest). It is running very slow, keeps freezing at least once a day and the battery life is way too short.

  • well if you don't like touchscreen, better to go for Bold 9900. I got BB 9800 and it sucks! To be fair, I really like the "sliding" concept, it is beautiful, but seriously its performance is way too slow and the battery life is too short (very common in BB phones btw). Please consider 9810 for double speed processor and longer battery life, or 9900 for non-touchscreen category. I hope this helps. :)

  • i also buy BB 9800 but while i watch u tube it take few seconds for buffering actual it is a 3G fone but not work properly some time

  • how much? is this original ? and if i order which country are u?

  • As an owner of both the 9800 and 9810 I just wanted to give some helpful info. If you have a choice between the two, get the 9810. It has a much better screen resolution and the processor is twice as big. Battery life is about the same with the 9800 maybe slightly better. Videos play so much better on the 9810. Anyway, I can usually be found in the 9810 forum. Just trying to help.

  • Download Player For YouTube from BB App World. The low resolution display and low CPU won't allow regular YouTube viewing on 9800 without it.

  • Ive got this BB9800 since April 2011 and still using to date. Thid BB helps me a lot specially while I am travelling to communicate with my family back home thru chating like YM. Surfing the net was also superb and used this in other countries I visited. It helps me also to navigate while I am driving in the Philippines using BB maps which you can choose the shortest or normal route to reach your destination. Here in Algeria, it also works excellent and using this phone for internet. The camera and vedio quality is very clear as well as the music which I am using this while I am travelling. I am very happy with my BB. You can update frequently as well via with your computer thru the net the available applications which a lot and depends on your taste. I am planning to buy same BB for a gift to my kid who is graduating this April. Kept it up BB..

  • The battery life issue seems to be a hot topic here :-) I've seen some other people complaint about the battery life of the BB-9800 but when I go through them, they are not many having this problem, so I guess it is a matter of "fine tuning" the options of the phone to get the most out of the battery. I'm getting almost 2 full days out of mine (8 months old) and I have 3 active emails, facebook, news feeds on all the time plus switching bluetooth whenever I'm driving and very little use of the maps during the day. I also check some internet pages from time to time during the day using 3G/2G as it is available, and WiFi at night when I'm back home. So I'd give the BB-9800 battery a high mark (if not full) compared to other high end models from other manufactures (namely in my case, iPhone 4S and Samsung Galaxy SII). they might have better options in other fields, but in the battery life department, the onyl device that managed to beat the BB-9800 is Nokia N8 (which is in my book the best ever made mobile phone regardless of the attack on Symbian OS, but that's not the topic here). One of the strange things that made a difference while I was searching for the best tuning for the battery was switching off the auto time update (which I don't think many people actually need it as it is handy only if you are the kind of person that usually has breakfast in a certain time zone then catch a plane for a business lunch in another time zone, and again get on the plane to catch some late night show in a third one) :-) But seriously, it made a difference and I have no explanation to it at all. The bottom line, BB-9800 has a great battery if it is tuned properly to your actual use.

  • Dear friend... 1) You actually CAN make multiple photos selection. Go the gallery that you want, choose "select" from the menu and you'll notice that each photo (or video) icon will now have a small square in the top left side, from here you can either select the ones you want by touching them or using the track pad to move to each one and pressing it. 2) For the contact save to the memory card, I would not recommend doing this even if you found a third party software that can do it. I have several devices and tried to do that (just for the purpose of checking) and it's a mixed bag result, it works some times (mostly with Nokia devices) and fails many others (Android messes the transfer and iPhone 4S doesnt read the file from the first place). I have also tried doing a bluetooth sync and had the same results (but with the iPhone, is didn't even pair with the BB as a data transfer device). Bluetooth syn also worked with my Garmin car navigator fine, but when I tried to sync with built in car phone it took only the "mobile" number field, the other numbers assigned to the contacts (like the home and office numbers) were skipped. So again, better do it through the computer sync using Outlook or windows contacts as a common ground as many different OS mobiles are communicating with these software better than directly between mobile phones.

  • I have this phone, and no you can not update it to OS7, also this guy is right. Blackberry Torch 9800 supports only 3.6 MBs HSDPA (high speed download), and it does not support HSUPA (high speed upload). Max speed is arround 300kbs. Informations stated in this review are not correct. Also on official website you can find this: Blackberry 9800 Tri-Band 3G UMTS network: 2100/1900/850/800 MHz Quad-band GSM/GPRS networks: 850/900/1800/1900 MHz 3.6 HSDPA

  • Can this phone be updated to OS7

  • Sharap. Rim says its 7.2mbps, check their website you ignoramus.

  • BTW set up the memory cleaning function under options -security - advanced setting - memory cleaning and set the parameters you prefer. I have it set to 20 minutes and idle. This will clean out your memory routinely and ensure a faster unit.

  • Hello, had this phone for almost a year and its great. Very reliable with very good battery time from the unit. My use I would say is standard (call, internet, email, messaging). I have upgraded the software to the latest 6.0.0.723. This software is very nice. In terms of performance its very solid and fairly quick at tasks. There is the occasional small hang up for a few seconds but its normal this is normal for any smart phone. Camera and video are good quality. You will need to tweak the settings from factory to optimize the battery and software performance just check Google for these tips. I would recommend this phone as a great buy.

  • Best Blackberry phone overall, look out for the BB 9810

  • Hey I have got this phone. If you do not buy the data, the internet won't work...that is the only trouble Iam facing...

  • This phone does not have HSUPA (high speed upload), only 3.6 MBs HSDPA and max upload is 384 kbs!!!

  • this phone is simply awesum... luv itttt....

  • Hi peeps, I live in an area where 2G always overide 3G. So I normnally set ma phone to use 3G only when I need to download at high speed. Does BB 9800 has this option of 3G only cos the BB 9700 has only the '2G' and '2G and 3G' option. I have this option of 3G only in BB 9360 but I'm swapping it for 9780 or 9800.

  • all blackberry phone have blackberry messenger

  • Does this phone has Blackberry Messenger? cause I heard that it does'nt

  • I'm using it as I type this and I had bold 9700 before this and I think its an even better keyboard, this ome's keys actually have a bit of aclick to them as your typing. So in short...I'd give the keyboard alone a 9 out of 10....unless you have fat fingers, then I do not reccomend .

  • Please I want to get the BB9800,but I'm more concerned about the keyboard,as I'm not really comfortable with touch screens.I am presently using BB curve 3G.is the keyboard of this phone as good as that of the BB curve 9300?

  • it has 2 main bad things... 1- u can not selectively mark photos. 2 - u can not save ur phone contacts in memory card and can not copy contacts from Black berry to an other phone...

  • Black Berry is a Good Brand with Poor Battery.

  • Very good brand but as is mentioned above it has a poor battery perfomance. And i wish it could play mp4 format files.

  • This Mobile Is Just Amzaing :D Really Enjoyed I Got The Black One And The Paint Didnt Peel Off. I Guess It Only Happens To Red. I Replaced its Back Cover With BB 9810 So It Look's Like it. And Also Used OS7 Theme. But Still The Phone Doesnt Lag. THIS IS THE BEST PHONE EVER

  • black berry is a good brand with a very poor battery. please improve on that so you can be the world best providers. please and i mean please indeed

  • I find found out that d green, menu, back and off buttons on my bb torch 9800 are always ON even when the backlight is off. Pls is this applicable to all torchs'? Or is mine faulty, answers pls

  • please can a person tell me if this phone can edit documents such as Word , Excel, power point , or the phone only view these documents? thanks for all

  • I got the wine color of the phone about 6 months ago, and the color has started to peel off. Despite it was much more expensive than the black one, my friends who bought the black ones have an advantage over me now cause I have to replace because it looks very embarrasing now. My other friend has the lwhite one, and it is peeling too. I would recommend a black of this phone to anyone.

  • I have had mine for about 1 year now and it's the best phone I have ever had. Only had to do a battery pull twice in that year...no dropped calls, no camera issues, no browsing issues either......really good phone...OS 6 is great and facebook app is the best....its fast and easy to use.....only wish is was a little faster but is good for email and taking pics.....great camera...

  • Radio is the network.

  • the phone is good, i just got a small problem when i wanted to connect to my network, it was saying i have to switch on the radio, unfortunately on the speciafication there is no radio. i wonder what was this all about. any help?

  • disappointed at all gsmarena users who have given this phone a good rating. - battery life is horrible - software is laggy - calls drop constantly - paint chips off - camera button is unresponsive where else could rim go wrong? worst phone purchased and will definitely be the last

  • -ppl i just got my phone and need to be updated on it

  • its good

  • BlackBerry Torch along with all the good features has one major drawback with the handset. The polish of the handset would start ripping off just after the few days of purchase. I own a red color handset while I cross checked with others in my circle and to my surprise they are encountering the same issue irrespective of the color or metal texture. It's horrible to see the handset now just after 2-3 months of purchase and spending big bucks is just in vain.

  • i like it

  • Have same issue with a battery. Need to recharge it in the middle of the day if any phone conference happened

  • I was not able to find how to reduce the sensitivity of the screen. Could you guide me?

  • try reducing the sensitivity of the screen - which means most the touch sensitivity would be minimal and any accidental touch would not trouble you with any unwanted selection or calls.

  • A very frustrating phone if you are used to previous models. The screen is annoying with the touch-sensitivity. Typing numbers from the keyboard sometimes causes double entry numbers. The phone is heavy compared to the bold. The keyboard is awkward to use if you have big fingers, definitely for ladies.

  • how long the standby for the battery? i usually got only around 8 hours...is that normal?

  • this is one of the awsm phn i have ever used...but i have a minor problem....when i use the camera, even for jst photos it gets stuck always....is der ny solution for it..please let me know if there is any way for it.

  • I have used almost all of the blackberries and i usually end up selling them real quick. I just traded my 9360 for a 9800 about a month ago and although it was already in used condition im loving it, it does lag sometimes but, so do all the other blackberries. Battery is the best ive seen in BBs so far and the keyboard is really comfortable to type with.

  • m using this phone over a year, and it is the best i have used till nw...luv it

  • there is a problem with the trackpad as it navigates automatically, earlier it used to move downwards then i updated the software to the latest bundle (2921) by which it has started to move upwards. by this experience i get a notion that it is a software problem.

  • nope

  • can i use my blackberry Torch 9800 to skype?

  • after comparing opinions between this phone and bb curve 9380 (which is not yet launched in the philippine market) i think this phone will be worth my hard earned money.

  • Keyboard of Blackberry Bold 9000 is very beautiful, QWERTY keyboard is very sensitive, the processing speed is very well, it fits in my pocket and very easy to carry everywhere but the battery life is very short as I have to charge its battery two times every day and I have to carry the charger with me.

Then, it kept on doing this in a loop now I am unable to start my phone u will find lots of complains about rebooting on blackberry spout form. any comments u can contact me on my personal mailing add i.e. ysku99 AT hotmail DOT com

  • In my opinion, you shall totally buy Blackberry...my mum bought it for her like two weeks ago and it's amazing...i have a lot of classmates which have iPhone 4, so i am able to compare them, and i'm telling you that i like blackberry a 100 times more then iPhone...my first argument is the uniqueness, because everybody has iPhone, but,as long as I know, few people have this kind of blackberry...the second is the quality, because I think that it is faster then the iPhone and also more perceptible when you touch it...and finally, my third argument is that it has also touch screen and dial pad. I finish reminding you that this is only my opinion, and you shall buy what you think it's best for you, and also excusing me for my english, because i ain't english or american.

  • blackberry torch 9800 or nokia lumia 800 plzz advice

  • Bold 9780 or Torch 9800 ????? Plz advice ....

  • pls help me how to install youtube player in blackberry torch

  • Thanks you. will try it..

  • You can't. As was said before, the 9810 is the upgrade of the 9800 to OS 7.

  • Does any one know how to upgrade the torch software to OS7? Please this is urgent

  • BB App World will always show that you had them. The only way to possibly remove the record of them on your phone is :Options-Device-Application Management. That should give you a list of applications. Find the one you are looking for, delete. Hope that works for you.

  • How to delete the " uninstalled " applications which i downloaded from the BB World ? Please someone answer me...TQ

  • if you hate it that much..why dont you send it to me instead of waiting for it to get stolen? :))

  • I hate this phone it is the worst ever, it has a mind of its own switching language, the phone function , not ringing, I can wait for someone to steal it!

  • No its not

  • is it dual sim?

  • is it dual sim?

  • Nope. The 9810 is the OS 7 version.

  • i bought it yesterday and it`s very great phone it amazing mobile thanks for that technonlogy

  • can i update with blackberry OS 7???

  • It's all a matter of what you are comparing it to. The battery life is bad compared to other BB models, but better than a lot of other smartphones. My friend with his HTC Evo would love to have the battery life I have with either the 9800 or 9810. He can't go more than about three hours of heavy use before needing to recharge. I have found the slider to be very well built compared to others (like Palm Pre models for example. Yes the 9800 does lag sometimes. It doesn't have the screen resolution or processor to compete with the iphone or high end android phones. It wasn't meant to. It's strength is that it has both a physical qwerty keypad and a touchscreen, making it a smartphone for someone that texts and emails a lot. Also, the Universal Search is great. If you are heavy into video watching, get a different phone. The 9800 wasn't made for that. That said, the 9810 overcomes a lot of the performance shortcomings the 9800 had.

  • hey y my torch is nt geting connected to the official bb site as i want to download the apps by syncing my tirch 9800

  • bad phone, easily to heat up, outdated specification for this big shape and price, much more of reboot, lagging . . better to samsung or sony ericsson for this price .

  • why BB torch more expensive?

  • Is very beautiful mobile is very perfects

  • 9800 is an elegant phone. But do not be deceived by it's beauty. This phone really sucks. Why: *SLOW PHONE *BATTERY REALLY SUCKS *SLIDE MECHANISM EASILY GETS LOOSE, IT WOBBLES *ALWAYS LAGS Be careful on buying this phone. It is not worth your money.

  • what do you guys want from a phone blood? they are there to do what they do which is texting and making phone calls.

  • this phone i love but its going slow on me now, would like to upgrade so should i still continue with blackberry or iphones?

  • I just bought the phone and I am finding it hard signing out from my email messages. Please help I want to sign out.

  • oh yeah and 9810 also comes with face detection...

  • very few differences, first off screen resolution increased slightly {from 360 x 480 pixels, 3.2 inches (~188 ppi pixel density) to 480 x 640 pixels, 3.2 inches (~250 ppi pixel density)}, secondly internal memory increased, (from 4GB to 8GB), thirdly the cpu processing speed doubled (from 624 MHz processor to 1.2 GHz processor) and finally battery life is changed slightly(standby time decreased from 432h to 308h, talk time increased from 5h 30m to 6h 30m, and music time increased from 30h to 54h). That about sums up the changes. P.S. these changes are all from the 9800 to the 9810...

  • i love everything about 9800, it is a smart fone, but one of the features they forgot is video call. i miss making calls using video call

  • I have got my blackberry torch 9800 and I think it is great phone to use on the telstra next g network I recommend it a lot great for business use Cheers Nick !!

  • Oh what a beauty & definitely a smarty too! I've never been so happy & satisfied as I am with my 9800, I say jump & it asks me HOW HIGH! I just wish there was a finger print reader for security purposes & a possible upgrade of the os6 to an os7 like the predecessor 9810, 9850 & 9860 & 9900. Any chance of an os upgrade for the 9800?

  • oh i like dis phone is very very good

  • a very good piece with desired specifications.

  • it has good sound quality but using it here in Philippines is not that good for prepaid subscribers. You cant use features like facebook twiteer and its own browser without subscribing to blackberry which is costly. Using android os phones are the best here.

  • Hey guys, just a quick message for people who are concerned about all the hating going on with this phone, I myself have also had problems, I now have a replacement torch because my first one had many issues, but when you get one that works like the one I have now it's a really great phone, there is no comparison to the curves and bold in my opinion, I am thinking about even upgrading to the new torch 9810 because I love the touchscreen/keyboard options and I'm not a fan of the bold touch after trying one out,it is a good phone trust me

  • They are of average durability, but if you know you are going to drop it then don't get a white one as I have it and it shows scratches very easily but otherwise they not bad

  • check settings. if you have wifi selected when you are not connect to a wifi network it will suck your battery down because it's seems to be searching for one.
