  • I have a box of these that were unlocked by Verizon, you just have to call them and tell them you plan to travel and they will help you unlock the phone if I remember correctly.

  • Trying to find out if this type of phone can be unlocked and then used with a PrePaid card in Mexico...say a TelCel ? It's my old phone and not in use anymore, but tracking ball and stuff still works. It was originally activated with TELUS.. It is showing as a 3G (CDMA)...can only GSM phones be unlocked?

  • Is it possible to have the carrier UNLOCK this kind of phone? I have an old one, and would be happy to use it as a second PREPAY type phone in Mexico with, say a Telcel sim card.

  • I've had my 9630 for 3 months and I have endless hours of enjoyment using it, however it needs some definite improvements to say the least. The browsing experience is quite awful, it loads web pages horribly slow, thankfully the Opera MinI browser is available for download. My worst complaint is this annoying spinning clock, it seems to interrupt my daily use of the tour on a constant basic, freezing all functioning for minutes at a time. Please let RIM invent an OS that will address these issues real soon.

  • the real miss here is wifi other than that, cool phone

  • Honestly, I've had this phone for a year and a half already and I think it sucks. Not trying to be mean but i could rate this phone 2/5. If your like me; heavy texter, checks email a lot, calls once in a while or go on apps, your battery dies super quickly. One day without charging and you won't be able to use it the next day. Also, what I have noticed is that it reboots itself several times a week without me telling it to reboot or touching it which is really annoying at times. My phone freezes a lot even if I do delete the junk on my phone. I would not suggest this phone to anyone.

  • My BlackBerry tour 9630 comes up at will whenever it wishes to. Even if the battery is fully charged. What do I do?

  • i can't checjk my account balance and load card on my blackberry tour what should i do

  • Its a great phone with all features. the only thing it does not have the WI-FI connectivity........... Which is stopping me to buy this.

  • i like that phone tooo much..Really cool it ius.

  • my phone dont receive or send out calls and text what do i do i really like this phone

  • If you go to the icon that looks like an antennae and click on that, make sure that your service is checkmarked and that you have your actual service on. Blackberry made it so that you can turn your service on and off on your own without turning your phone off. If your phone recently died and you just charded it that would make your service not come on automatically. If this doesnt work, try just pulling the battery while the phone is still on. Wait about 10 seconds then put the battery back in. When it reboots, follow the directions above and turn the service back on. I hope this helped!!!

  • I cannot save new contact and the battery life is bad

  • I have the same phone with me & you need to replace the battery as it seems faulty,as mine was giving 3 days battery backup..

  • I think the battery powers off fast once you are connected, that is you have the full Blackberry service working on your phone and you are the type like me that is always pinging or chatting or browsing....or maybe the phone is just a dead phone....cos I tried swapping batteries with someone using a 9500, and after fully charging both batteries I noticed that the result was the same, the 9630 powers off quicker.

  • best phone ever

  • how about 3 ? it has the cheapest plan. also, why other service provider sucks ?

  • internet seting

  • Tour 9630 has had the best creation from BB on the CDMA based so far.But U can also use it under the GSM with 3G/HSDPA network coverage. I've been using it since the first launched on august 2009 and I love it (no complain at all). Try to get a SMART as your local CDMA provider in Indonesia. And choose some good provider such as Telkomsel or Indosat for GSM provider on BB. The rest providers are sucks! *honestly* Regards

  • No, no wifi for this model.

  • No wifi?

  • no wifi?

  • I have used unlocked 9630 for sell of $250 US DOLLAR. If you are interested, please email me at [email protected] for more info and pictures.

  • Which cellular store or retail store in Durban, South Africa do i purchase the Blackberry Tour 9630 from?

  • if you are experiencing problems in regards wit the settings on the internet just contact your network provider..

  • please stop all the crying and whinning about the wi-fi. Firstly, you can't do anything with blackberry just with wi-fi,

  • I have bis/bes but it still gives that prompt message but I try this out.

  • To use yahoo/any messenger you would need BIS/BES service from operator. there are also GPRS messengers like Nimbuzz. try using those.

  • very nice

  • I have the tour which is a very classy phone however I am unable to connect to my yahoo messenger,the prompt says 'this service is disabled on this handheld'. I have deleted and re-installed the yahoo messenger but says the samething,can anybody help me out? Thx

  • Major weakness of this Tour 9630 is lacks of WiFi. Looking for WiFi? Just look at it's younger brother of almost the same design but under the Bold family 9650...

  • no blackberry head set is fitting y is that arent they supposed to be one standard size phone coming from sprint

  • Long press ur ? sign on d fon 2 seee ur browser bt it won't conet if U????? ve not subscribed 4 ur BIS

  • Ok guys, please stop all the crying and whinning about the wi-fi. Firstly, you can't do anything with blackberry just with wi-fi, you need a data plan to access Yahoo Messenger, Blackberry Messenger, Email, Facebook, etc... The only thing you can do on wi-fi itself is browse the net, however browsing the net on 3G is faster than wi-fi, so why do you cry on wi-fi? My wife is using the Bold 2 and she never used the wi-fi feature, so it's not that bad. I've been using this BB Tour for like half a year and I'm happy about it, Blackberrys are the most elegant phone out there now together with apple's iphones. I've read so much nonsense opinions in here like comparing this phone to a nokia? OMG, Nokia phones are just too many and they are all cheap in many ways that's why their prices are like 30-50% down when a new phone is out, and that is a total rip off. To those who love Blackberry, this phone is not a bad taste. The only downfall i could see is the battery life.

  • switch to MTN, works well for me on my tour, jus put ur number onto their network

  • Hi am on mtn and even though my internet worked fine I couldn't make any out going calls. I spend hours on the phone with mtn and went to numerous shops. Eventually I got to a shop where someone sorted it out for me. I can use my girlfriends vodacom sim and it works fine. Don't let them bullshit you. It most probably is just a setting. Just go to a couple of shops and I'm sure you'll find someone that can sort it out for you!

  • Subscribe to Blackberry Internet Service BIS with your carrier and all the internet related functions will come out including the browser. You don't need the cdma funtion to access internet. If your carrier doesn't offer cdma, no problem.

  • I'm in South Africa and Our Service provider, Vodacom, says they dont offer CDMA, now i cant use this phone for Internet here....

  • Hi folks. Am not clear on the issue of this phone having a document editor. Mine has document viewer for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint only. The editor is a premium package which can be downloaded and comes with pdf but is a trial version for only one month after which you have to buy. is this same experience with everyone or just my BB 9630

  • He ment FM radio... Not That RADIO icon which connects to gsm network

To change the general ringtone of an sms, you can edit the current sound profile: Edit Profile>Normal>Messages>SMS Text>Ring tone: (& choose from the list) or to change the sms ringtone from a certain contact: choose a contact>edit>(Under Custom Ring Tones/Alerts) Messages>Ring tone: (choose from the list)

  • i have this phone and it rocks the wifi and bb services are great on this phone this phone works great all the way around

  • id this phone of dual sim?

  • nice phone...incase u cant check ur balance on mtn just go to option...mobile network and click on diagonize and run then check it work fine

  • For those who cant check balance or do any specific gsm command such as (*556#), simply turn off the CDMA network (switch 2 3G or 2G) then dial. It works. But then u have to switch it back to Global(Dual Mode)..

  • hey dude!go to options,click on it.scroll to mobile network,click on it and you will see data services.click on your blackberry button and you will see diagnostic test.click on the diagnostic test.then press your blackberry button again you will see "run". click on the "run" and your diagnostic test will run.it will later write completed.then go and check your account balance.pity is you may have to do this everytime you want to check your account balance or load your phone.have fun.

  • hi, is this nice?.. is this users friendly like nokia phones?

  • it has cdma and gsm,the problem is that on the gsm network those commands are sent as network request while on cdma network they dial out the request so when you are sending out the request the cdma side of the phone takes over and dial it out which does not work for gsm.

  • i have a BB tour 9630 from sprint, but im having problem with loading of recharg card and checking my account balamce. each time i try to check account balance by typing *556#, which stands for MTN Nigerian, the phone dials as if i want to make call, and the voice prompts tells me that the number im calling is not correct, and the same issues applies on loading my credit too. secondly, where my network provide should appear at the up front of my screen it appears ACTIVATION REQUIRED. pls could someone assist me with an alternative with this mess, otherwise i might get ride of the phone. PIN ME ON 312433CB, email or chat me up at [email protected]

  • i have du connection what should i do?

  • You need the service books from whichever provider you're using it for the put it in legacy mode. I'm using sprint tour on at&t.

  • Does anyone know how to set the gprs configuration of the phone??

  • Worst phone i've ever had! had to get rid of it after couple of days. terrible.

  • This phone sucks.... though it works great on internet, but no use for common man as it has no wifi, radio..

  • Its totaly absord for this phone to be wivout radio and wi-fi, its so unacceptable, I think to cap it up, it is a very useless fone also wiv much price

  • i always find it very diffult in configuring gprs for blackberry tour. infact,all the features had been laid correctly. please i am in ghana and our 4 network providers had not been able to configured.

  • pls can u change the shape

  • Useless phone no wifi and secondary camera...........and redio also

  • please insert a wireless

  • u have to wipe out ur blackberry handset , but first make a back up copy of all ur important files like contacts.. john

  • why does all blackberry look the same i see it luks exactly lyk the 8900 i think that sucks f!!! blackberry

  • 3G should work, unless the phone has it disabled

  • no WLAN.. why..??

  • It´s a nice phone buut I have a problem with the cell, here where I live the cellphones companies offer GSM service but the BB I have looks like it doesn´t work with that system, I ask a few guys wich their business it unlock cellphones and the answer is we can not connect that device. What can I do?

  • i have a bb tour and i want to reset it because everything need time to open not like before its really slow. how can i do a master reset or something...

  • why the 3G network dosn"t work on the dominican republic

  • still having problem wit ma browsing system

  • hi blackBerry 9630 has a radio lol :) ....

  • wonderful fone

  • I like it .It's the new technology.But he doesn't have the WI-FI.that's my problem with.

  • I am a new Blackberry user and so far I am enjoying every moment of it... I recently got the Blackberry Tour 9630, eventhought it doesnt have wifi but what the heck once you subscribe to BIS service by your mobile provider you can use the service unlimited... Once you go black you'll never go back hehehe I LOVE LOVE LOVE my BLACKBERRY!!!

  • I've been using the Blackberry for a couple of months for work. As a working tool, it is great. It syncs well with my work email. The screen seems rather small to me compared to my personal smartphone (Nokia N97). However, the smaller screen on the Blackberry is actually criper and clearer than my N97. I can see more on my N97, but clearer on the BB. Still, I need to occasionally zoom in to see small text where as I almost never need to do that on my N97 because of the larger screen. Navigation on the BB is done using a track ball. The track ball in some sense makes scrolling easier some times, but more annoying other times. I find that if I want to scrol a little, the track ball is easier to use. If I want to scroll far, the track ball is annoying as it doesn't scroll that fast. To scroll far, you need to use the keyboard short cuts like to page down and - to page up. The manual does not hava listing of these short cuts so you have to look them up on the web. One other criticism of the track ball, is that you need to press it down in order to click on an item. Sometimes, you end up moving the mouse as you press the track ball, especially if your track ball setting is towards the sensitive side. I personally find the keyboard to be rather difficult to type on. The keys are very close together and I have a tendency to press the wrong key or accidentally press multiple keys. The device crams both the display and keyboard into a small amount of space, and I just would rather have a bigger keyboard and a bigger screen. One interesting feature about the Blackberry is that it can sense when it is holstered. This feature works with holsters that have some magnettic device to keep the unit secured. When it is holstered, it conveniently turns off the screen and conserves power. Since it is my work phone, my ability and permission to customise it is rather limited. For my work requirements, it functions quite adequately.

  • pls anybody help me, how about its ram,rom,procesor pls help me :(

  • BlackBerry make the best phones - better than Sony, Nokia, Apple, HTC, LG, Samsung, but if you want Wi-Fi get the BlackBerry Curve 8900, its identical to the tour

  • I actually have been using the tour for 2 months now and i simply love it..It does everything any other smartphone can do...Is loaded to the gills(by BB standards) and looks like a million bucks.. It has CDMA/GSM both capabilities which is great and the screen is gorgeous. The Cam is great too and takes honest pics. i have my outlook configured on it and it works seamless and so do all the apps. Go for it if you want to...u wont regret it.. the only thing i can think of is the high price but i got a great discount and its a fair price.

  • one of my customer buy bb tour from verizon brand..but he cannot go for browsing and there is no wifi..why it does happen? and how he can get that browsing?

  • i got this phone weeks ago the feature is ok. i dont have any problem with it except for it doesnt have a WLAN. i need to change the phone to HTC touch pro 2 and now i am happy. battery life is very good. so happy!

  • Thank you very much Dev! I think it's a great speed, like Storm 2.

  • 7.2 mbps

  • Please, someone know what is the 3G/HSDPA speed in Mbps??? I can't find this information anywhere.

  • i just got the phone n avnt bin able to transfer through bluetooth from my previous fone sony ericson P1i to my blackberry. pls wat is d prob.?

  • Just got the Tour 9630 a couple of days back and i love it !! amazing screen and UI. The battery is slightly weak but i can live with that. Need your suggestion on free themes/wallpapers/ringtone downloads. Would be doing it from the Phone itself, so please suggest.

  • well it depends; the smartphone works with both networks (you just have to unlock it, for about 20 USD) the thing is that it can't work with the two of them at the same time.

  • gsm and cdma can work together... or single..?

  • I heard that tour 2 9650 will come in may But I heard that rim will change the codename become bold 9650 Because bold code name is more popular than bold n the tour owner will be dejected of so fast rim launch new tour That's so weird Well let's wait n see the truth..

  • The activation required code is not working for my tour. Is there a different code.

  • luv the phone..used t 4 ova a month and fink its a lot better than 90% nokia fones...if my tour gets lost il buy another1 or a bold2. ts true dah the fone hangs...in "milliseconds"..buh no fone is perfect.... nice 1 BB crew

  • really good one....could works well as modem in EVDO CDMA, love it....

  • This isnt rated as high as some other ones because of the WLAN (ie wifi) which pretty much should be standard... but evidently isnt with this phone?

  • Why is this not that popular and lower rated then 9000 and 9700. I really like the look and size of this phone. Should I buy or should I be concerned about something?

  • tour is good.... maybe your burns is the trash!!!

  • hello! for the users who dont know how to remove the message "activation required" from a verizon blackberry, if you dont usea verizon sim card ...just press ##000000 and send button ! will appeara secret menu and just tape the number at your sim card you use with device! phone will restart and after restart will appear the logo of the network you use ! also i think this phone is better than bb 8900 because it have a better qwerty keyboard ! but im sure the next device from RIM for my next birthday will be bb9700! cheers!

  • ok so, having been an avid NokIA fan, i thought id jump ship ship and give BlaclBerry a try, I like the phone, its simplicity because other phones for example have Flashy outlays on the menu's for instance which after a while mean nothing hence a plus for the straightforward menu layout on the BB and on the sub menu"s too. the camera is excellent during the day but could do with more zoom power and better performance at night despite the presence of flash. the size and overall feel i think is good for a smartphone however the QWERTY keyboard is a bit too squashed but i guess thats the norm with any smartphone. the downside though for me are that the ohone sometimes freezes for brief periods/miniseconds as if the phone is having hiccups. the network reception is good but the battery runs down quite quik when u run several apps which other phones can handle better. i dont mond not having wireless as i use 3G which performs well. i bought the phone in America and use it in South Africa (got it unblocked there) and it seems to perform equaly well. However some apps from the blackberry app world dont work so well in South Africa but i guess its coz they were not designed to work in certain regions.I also dont like the way apps that u delete from the bb appworld remain lingering in ur downloaded folder despite u having deleted them even though theryre highlighted as being archived upon deletion, its too much clutter lying around. finally, i do not understand why the bluetooth wont work for file transfers even from another BB. overall, im gennerally satisfied with the phone, the looks and performance and the bb internet service too. had i paid more than the bargain price at which i got the phone for, i may not have such dear words for the phone but overall im satisfied by it.

  • You guys must be crazy...the tour is an excellent phone...perfect size, beautiful screen res and its super fast ( at least here in VA on sprint) almost as fast as wifi) the 8900 keyboard was too small and the bold was like walking around with a mini flat screen (too big) and the storm...."FAIL"

  • Gemini is cheap dude, try Javelin...That's an amazing phone, except for the 3g thoug, but I dont need 3d since i have internet 24/7 and I don't download too many things. Javelin is the best, price quality design I love it!

  • becoz bold,storm n curve are too cool for this one dude!

  • Why isn't this phone that popular? Not many votes...no review by GSMArena either...

  • ya dude..im totally agreed..who want to use wifi if u can get the connection 24/7??cut the crap man..with BIS(although u need to pay more for the service)u r 24/7 covered with the connection..although im not using tour coz im using curve gemini,but the performance is so damn superb..even if i use any fone other than bb b4 that covered with 3g still cant challenge my beloved gemini although its running only on 2.5g(edge)...to other folks go n get the bb dude..n u know y pple like us is so obsess with it..once blackberrian always a blackberrian..hahaha..bb rules!!!

  • You know why here in our country this unit has an wifi capability and I already have one. I'm enjoying surfing the net using this phone and it's really fast and cool.

  • Okay...I've been going through some of the past post and I can't believe at some of the comments...most people complain about the lack of wifi...are serious??? I live in virginia and have this phone for sprint. With the 3g coverage this phone needs no wifi. Plus wifi just burns you battery down. This my 3rd blackberry (I've had the 8800, and the 8310) and this by far the best one I have ever held in my hands. The keyboard is phenomal. The screen work perfectly inside or outside and the camera is great. Youtube works good and I can go @ least 2 days without charging with medium to heavy use.my suggestion to those who say blackberry wasted their time are just clueless. Great job blackberry. If you want wifi or just want to play on a phone. Go to nokia or samsung. This phone is for grown ups who don't get paid by the hour. Go get a suit and tie and find a job with benefits. or just keep playing games and warching youtube while your on break. And make sure my fries are hot when I order them

  • ram?-cpu?

  • no. does yours come with tv?

  • does it have a tv

  • this is wonderfull model gsm+cdma. and for cdma international rooming free.ummmmmmaaa

  • Sorry, got my wires crossed there.

  • The Blackberry Storm runs on a 528MHz Qualcomm processor. I personally have had it only for one week and I enjoy it. Very good phone to have and very usefull.

  • Whaty is the processor speed of the tour?

  • I got this unlocked, its a great phone but my data is not working well with GSM.. i wonder is there any way my edge will stay up because this unit is useless without data. Help anyone?

  • why does sprint and verizon gets the worst phones out there! they are like the garbage pale for phone manufacturers. the absolutelly worsed designed, worsed functional, lacking functions, lacking appeal, battery life. i like cdma, good service but Comon! can we get a normal phone! once? maybe a better phone than att or tmo? its mind boggling, billion dollar copmanies, who chatge an arma nd a leg for monthly service, cant get normal phones like bold, bold 2, 8900, nokia's, samsungs, lg's. notn! nada! what we get? some trash called 9630 who nobody wants or cares about, taht has a crappy scrolling ball. amazing!

  • i got my blackberry tour from gsmallover.com. it was really nice cuz the phones come fully unlocked n you don't have to sign up for a new plan to get it...and it was much cheaper than the full price at the store. it came really fast and the shipping was free. the phone is really nice. i just use it for basic calls and texts, but it performs really nicely. great service and great phone.

  • Even you have wi-fi if you don't subscribe to BIS plan, it still won't work. Well, only for surfing and that's basically it (no e-mail, no YM, etc.) So there's no point in having wi-fi really. In the end, you'd still resort to BIS plan if you want to get and enjoy its full service.

  • Given the specs, I suppose except for the appearance make over, this isn't any better than the Curve 8900.. A phone like this without a wifi is gonna be very expensive to use specially when one is deep into mobile internet. This phone is indeed for people who can afford to pay pricey data plans.

  • Smart indonesia will launch tour "officially" on jan 10th n first in asia..

  • wtf dude?r u kidding me..this device has been in m'sia for awhile..do u go n check it or just made up the comment..shoot u man!! Ps : my name is also izwan n i came frm m'sia also..y ur name same as mine!!

  • my best verizon phone ever..

  • I think this is by far the best BlackBerry I have used. I have used a Storm 1 (that's a crap phone and everyone agrees), a Bold, Javelin and some of the older 8707s. Nothing beats this phone. Yet to use the 9700, but I think I am pretty happy with the Tour. With OS 5.0 on it, it just rocks! And the best part is it comes in a non-camera version! Hooray to workplaces that disallow camera phones!

  • this phone is not officially launch in my country which is malaysia.So the service provider here have no setting for this device.Arghhh!!!

  • i dont feel the lack of a wifi on this baby because i get 1XEVDO on this which is as fast as any wifi. I know because i was using Javelin 8900 before with wifi.

  • notice this baby got no wi-fi, will stick to my Bold

  • I've had a lot of phones of the years and by far this the best phone I've had its easy to used and its goes perfect with my lfe style

  • from solomondrin.net blackberry essex will have same design like tour but with trackpad n smaller dimension..i thought it same like javeline n onyx..the camera resolution still the same i.e. 3.2 mp..the processor still the same i.e. 528 mhz..the flash memory still the same i.e. 256 mb..the internal memory will be 2 gb..i hope all the specification is true especially the internal memory..i was so dissapointed with the review of onyx..first it said it had 1 gb internal memory but the true is only 256 mb..

  • completely agree, not interested in 9650 tho (not a trackpad fan) however i have os 5.0 & its the greatest thing, i'll be buying tours for awhile (i even had the same bbs u had too, lol)

  • its the right blend of everything. I love it

  • Okay...I think I have found a phone that will last me for awhile...this year I have gone through about four cellphones and up until I got my tour I haven't be satified...I have had the G1(good phone but horrible battery)n a bb 8800( good phone, great battery but no 3g or camera) a curve 8310 (again good phone but froze up way too much and cameras sucked) but with my tour I have a great camera, good call quality, better web browsing, great organizational apps, and a damn fine media player...the phone is stylish, sleek, and very high class)though I'm a little disappointed they already have a new tour 9650 made with a trackpad...I am very well pleased with how the trackball works on this phone( as with my curve I always was buying new ones every other week) good job RIM...I'm a customer for life

  • Just got this phone.....really nice!!! yet to really lay hold on it!!!

  • plus it will be replacing trackball with trackpad like onyx n gemini..

  • GOOD NEWS ALL!!!i heard that tour 2 9650 codename essex will be released on dec 20th-jan 10th..the feature will be wifi,3.2 mp,gsm/cdma n bb os 5 version..this will be great..please hurry release it rim..

  • ditto!!!!

  • no good phone

  • what provider did u get urs from and what software did u put on it? plzzz

  • they look slightly different and i think it was the sprint tours that were originally defective....

  • so what is the difference between sprint n verizon??they both support gsm card slot, don't they??in indonesia the retailer only sell verizon tour..

  • Juz get this phone n its so cul. Evrything is working well, n I really luv d keypad. I thnk this is d best blackberry everr. Bt no WIFI make people thnk tht this blackberry sux. Bt the global roaming is really amazin. Luv this phone.

  • jus ignore it, its cuz the cdma # wasnt activated, u'd have to reprogram the cdma side with the msl code (like a storm)

  • yea u do, hush and charged regular data rate

  • jus place the gsm sim in & change network to gsm & it picks up automatic - i have 2 from sprint & verizon....they look slightly diff but love dem none the less, the camera quality is absolutely amazing

  • i think is a standard 1gb, but i got 2gb. It depends on the seller i guess

  • will i have to activate blackberry data plan if i use it as modem??thanx for the answer..

  • If you're in the desert, you are even least likely to get wifi...

  • quite impressed with the specification but the thing is there is no WI-FI but thats ok i like the unit.

  • Come on rim release tour 9600 (that i hope wifi enable) n essex (gsm n cdma network with wifi enable)..

  • Yesterday I noticed on the Blackberry India home page in the whats new section they have added blackberry app world. However when i try to download the application i get the message saying "system requirement not met". I have upgraded the firmware on the phone through the Desktop Manager. Please help I use an unlocked BB Tour (Sprint) on the Vodafone India network.

  • Is it true that you can only save the applications to the phone memory alone? i'd REALLY like to know because i'm debating between this phone and the 8900 and i'm REALLY stuck!! HELP! And how's the battery life anyway?

  • There are many places where there is a wifi connection but no data services. Certain buildings are like this.

  • Yes there is a 9700 coming out in Novemebr, for you to be working for Rim thats not good that you were not informed. 1st Blackberry from T-mobile that has 3G i would know i work for T-Mobile

  • does it has a world clock

  • I tried both ##000000 and ##111111 to get rid of the activation required but both times it says invalid password. Please Help. Also where do i download applications from? The Blackberry site only has paid applications

  • if in remote areas does it get connected.

  • how do u get rid of Activation Required?

  • Tour 9630,can it be used with CDMA 1x? Does it have a noise reduction system?

  • BlackBerry Tour 9630 videoreview

  • Can anyone know what is the megapixel of tour camera?

  • Tour 9630,can it be used with CDMA 1x? Does it have a noise reduction system?

  • I wanted to see wifi on Tour 2 I will buy it surely

  • cost is more it should be below 20000 inr

  • why bother "wifi" if u use bb internet service.u can ol where ever u are..

  • I'm not sure what is the big deal is with wifi doesn't that Just enAblE you To get on the Enternet. If so thEn isn't that what the wEb browser does. What is the difference?

  • If your in the middle of the desert your not going to get a signal no towers.

  • Really sucks that doesnt have wifi..

  • the price is too high for 'no wifi' phone .

  • The idea there is no wifi, see by the name Tour which mean you can go online where ever when ever you want without relaying on the hot spot which you should find if you in the middle of dessert. That what I think, my be you have an idea. why they don't put wifi like the bold. Btw I own one and love it.

  • Wifi on Blackberries is not indeed necessary, with wifi you will only have web browser navigation and that's all, you cannot email, chat or sync without a data plan. you can still use third party app for these tasks, but it will make your blackberry slower and will take space on memory for something that is included with the OS. The future is fast broadband connection with cell phone, not with wifi.

  • no wifi??... this must be joking... no wifi= no fun no wifi= no business I'm kinda confuse why they decided to launch this phone...

  • I absolutely agree with you...I think this blackberry is not better than bold. wifi take the important role for the common use of this kind of phone. maybe blackberry must think it twice before they decided not to put wifi ability on this phone.

  • Im excited to have mine this month!!!

  • There many Models Coming which not mention in here. New Bold 2 9700 come around begining of November, New Storm 2 9550 come sometimes end of this month and finally Storm 3 with slide key board by end of this year.

  • I still dont understand why Blackberry, world leader in advanced technology for phones, still makes them without wifi... what could possibly be the motivations for that.... thats a mayor turnoff...

  • well i was even in Belguim and they did not have it yet. But you could always order it from Canada,we are faster on technology.

  • well according to mobile magazine and several other ones there is a new one coming out called the9700

  • does any1 know when is the tour coming out in the UK?

  • hey the 9700 is that the onyx? any chance of posting a picture

  • It's amazing to see that people actually forget who in the world reads comments on GSM Arena. There is no such thing as a Blackberry 9700, I would know, I work for RIM.

  • hii the 9630 is not the top i have the blackberry 9700 from dgtal house london is the besat bb ever

  • The phone seems ok but why doesn't it have wifi? That like -1 point.

  • does the blackberry tour have youtube or it can simply be downloaded via the phone cos i'm about to purchase this phone and i want to find out this information about it thanks

  • What would you know?

  • Having Problems with trying to get off the "Activation Required" thingy on my 9630. I have tried the ##000000 thing but it just says after I press the SEND button it says "Invalid Password" Then i try the number I see in a grey border which stated My Number I type those in after the ##000000 and this comes up "MSL Passowrd must contain 6 digits" HELLLLP. I bought this phone unlocked..

  • I have currently own this phone unlocked, and live in London. Carried it to T-Mobile and got a SIM only plan with BB service and it works great..

  • hi,can anyone help. is tour coming to singapore. heard that singapore i snot carrying tour due CDMA.what is CDMA?

  • nahhh

  • THEY lied to you lol

  • will the blackberry tour work in the uk on vodafone

  • I think that you should have to enter area code. Let try it and see what's happen next. Good luck

  • If I enter my number without the area code ( after doing ##000000) will that affect my ability to make or receive calls? If yes, how do I undo it?? Help. Been having intermittent service since I did this. I mean maybe it's coincidence it's just my mobile provider, but I'd like to be sure.

  • Hmmm, pity there isn't any Infrared or WLAN support on this phone. Hmm... which BB has infrared?

  • I find that Blackberrys are quite reliable. The audio (ringtone) may not be loud as other phones. The Apps and support are very good.

  • It could have been a great BB, it could have defeated the great Javelin (8900), but then they removed the wifi features. what a shame... this model could have been great.

  • Hey, Im thinking about buying this phone. I live in England. It's my birthday coming up soon and i'd really like this phone.... HOWEVER... I do not know...... Will the blackberry tour work in england with an english sim E.g Tmobile if bought in America and shipped over to england?

  • u just need to update ur mac software and uninstall ur old desk top maneger and than install back the blackberry desktop manager V 5.0 than it sync properly

  • very slim and sexy device and this blackberry tour actually much better than a other device (9500/9000) try it be4 give any opinion

  • this phone is really pissing me off right now because I can't sync it with my mac at all. My old 8900 used to sync perfectly. What the hell Blackberry!

  • hi,can anyone help i heard that bb tour is not coming to singapore as sg cant support the 3g network..is it real???

  • When you are press ##000000 and hit send key, you will see Mobile Directory Number on the first row, you should type in your phone number, then press Menu (BlackBerry Symbol) and chose Save, then your BlackBerry will automatically restart and you wont see Activation Require again. I am already done mine. Good luck.

  • I am not sure about the Tour 9630. But i have been very disappointed with the Storm. I have used it for 6 months now and the screen has stopped working twice completely. Within the first 2 months the screen gave way. I got it repaired and again after two months the screen has stopped functioning. I have again sent it for repairs but i seriously feel that the Storm's RIM technology is defective. i am now forced to consider purchasing the Tour. This is really a shame for BB because as long as the Storm functioned, it was brilliant. Regrettably BB has missed out on this one big time...

  • which is the best 1? Black Berry Tour or Black Berry Storm?! reply asap

  • i wanna ask, did blackberry tour can dual mode on? GSM & CDMA switch on together?& how about the sim card slot, it's just one or two (for GSM & CDMA)? Thanks Guys!

  • They are better than they say they are

  • I just bought a BB Tour 9630, everything is good except SMS alert, when i receive SMS, the phone sound only 1 time, and also i cannot dial from my contact list, i mean when i chose a number from my contact list, then i hit send key, but the phone will never dial, are someone know how to solve this. Thanks

  • Blackberry is not as good as they say they are.

  • i want this phone like now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • it's little bit bigger than the GREAT BB (curve 8900 aka Javelin). ...still javelin is the greatest phone ever.... awesome phone, nice shape, good price.

  • The main difference 8900 has Wi-Fi and 9630 no have. 8900 has no 3G and 9630 does have 3G. The 8900 is much lighter than 9630. Just the look of 9630 is better. They both good phone as all Blackberry are.

  • May I just ask what is the main difference of tour 9630 unit and curve 8900? Thank you.

  • how do I remove ACTIVATION REQUIRED, I've tried ##000000 and ##111111 but it's doesn't work

  • Just bought one last night. Like it so far. Just wish that the camera is much better and has Xenon flash.... I'm a corporate user but like to have all-in-one gadget with me....

  • Why gsmarena so late in introducing and talking about new blackberry. New T-mobile 9700 new generation of Bold. you ca nread about it on CrackBerry.

  • wifi is good but 3g is awesome im not in wifi areas all the time and edge sucks and you can get this phone with a camera its just a business option to get it without

  • when you have the blackberry service who needs WiFi

  • this phone is awesome! I wish that RIM will release its cameraless version with wifi on it.

  • Cool! Just wondering why people die for Wifi & camera in BlackBerry..Why can't they just get a nokia or something..

  • Does anybody have any news on Blackberry Tour release in UK???

  • Cool! Just wondering why people die for Wifi & camera in BlackBerry..Why can't they just get a nokia or something..

  • I think the lack of Wi-Fi is shocking in this day and age

  • anyone know if or when AT&T will sell this phone??

  • i have bold.bold is best phone.

  • Does anybody know if and when the 9630 Tour will be available in the UK? Thanks

  • Alex here, how should i remove the ACTIVATION REQUIRED as still indicator in the phone eventhough i can make out call send and receive sms.

  • Hi Guys, Which is the best phone between the 9630 and Bold, I am planning to buy blackberry but not sure which one to get between the two, yes the 9630 seem to have a faster speed than bold... Please give me advice on both phones...

  • How does having 3G on this phone make up for lack of wi-fi?

  • Why after using other call or browsing until 15-20 minutes, the keypad will be hot? And during charging, the keypad is geeting hot. Please advice?

  • This phone isn't equipped with Wi-Fi, because this is equipped with 3G. In the states this is a Verizon exclusive, and their network is simply amazing. This phone over a 3G network is nearly as fast as my Curve 8900 over a wi-fi connection. This phone is really only as good as the provider. Yeah its got the same crappy 3.2 that the 8900 has, but remember these are business focused devices that are able to do multimedia. So a high grade camera isn't a must have thing, and considering the provider who carries this phone neither is Wi-fi.

  • in Indonesia we can use smart telecom for blackberry 9630, so don't worry you can't use blackberry tour in indonesia :)

  • what is the processor for BB Tour 9630? i think bold is better than tour.

  • can sms on this tour 9630 like nokia it means multi sms facility available ths mobile like nokia

  • What IS the processor speed of the Tour 9630,Is it faster the the Bold 9000.?

  • Here in south africa you can get an unlimited email and on-device internet plan for R60 per month which is about us$7.50. Once you have this why do you need wifi???? Surely you can get similar plans elsewhere ?

  • use less ? model 1-no wifi what this now days customer recquire the main thing is wifi 2- camera 3.2mp its comman customer need more mega pixel.

  • all u need to do ref removing activation required is to dial ##000000. afterwards u shd look for where to put ur mobile no on d page that wud open up den save. ur bb wud restart and activation required wud not b there again. u can holla me on [email protected]. i used d bb tour too

  • This phone is awesome!! I have it with Sprint. I love the fact that you can go from CDMA to GSM so quickly!!! It comes unlocked for USA GSM, right out the box. I have a T-Mobile Sim, so I can talk to my friends unlimited on T-Mobile. The camera takes great pictures, and I love the fact that there is no Sprint Picture Mail on this device. It have true MMS. I think the battery life is pretty darn good. I love the emailing and text features. This phone is just all around great!! I just wish it came with more built-in themes.

  • i have bought the 9630 from verizon wireless and i have brought the fone to india, the first thing on the screen is activation requires(what is this and how to go about it?), i am not able to answer any kind of call waiting, if i answer a call waiting on my fone the running call gets disconnetcted, i am not able to make conference calls. i dont have call forwarding in this fone!!! strange do any of you have experienced this

  • really ivan? how much did you buy it? Is this a dual card phone? or you have to choose CDMA or GSM? If it's dual? is it both on at the same time or do i need to do a reset to change in between cards? (which means I can only receive call from 1 card that is set to on)

  • wifi is needed when you are roaming :) but if you always stay in your country then no need of wifi

  • Dont worry elina, Telkomsel had announced about BB Tour today after imported license released by indonesian government

  • good point soros. all blackberry users has data plan. whats the point of wifi

  • 1 more thing...and to all that anyone argues about wifi...you want wifi? buy nokia! BlackBerry user hardly even use the wifi...nobody bought BlackBerry that doesnt have data plan...it's a business phone not just some gimmick cool looking phone

  • I'm Indonesian and I already own 1...it's a world phone...it support both cdma and gsm in 1 slot...

  • bad news for indonesian..big possibility tour is never be released in indonesia because of its cdma network..

  • CDMA..? really..?

  • no wifi...useless

  • Is it me or is this just another bold/curve :S ye your right it is just for money making!

  • This phone is due to be released around november accprding to a RIM rep

  • processor : 528 mhz

  • Its for money making purposes.Thats the reason why it doesnt have wifi. So the service provider can make money on the person having a data plan! So for all you cheapies who NEEEED WIFI. Just get a better job and get ultd data. Problem Solved!!

  • Anyone know if the Tour is gonna be released in UK. I have a 8900 but miss the 3G. Hope it does get released, never feel comfortable spending ��� for a phone on the internet.

  • new model B.Berry bt dun hv wifi...sad!ppl dun like the ph no wifi 1 loh...

  • Negative

  • Doe it have dual sim (GSM + CDMA) feature?

  • I seen the Phone. It is nice Design but missing Wi-Fi too bad. Need Wi-Fi specially for VOIP Skype type calls. I do not understand Blackberry why no put Wi-Fi?

  • it is a pretty nice phone with high resolution ... the bad thing is no wifi and 3G which doesnt matter for me ...coz i jsut bbm and msn and google map

  • i saw it.as a matter of fact i first sold it in nigeria.it a lovely piece of gadget.its a combination of bold key pad and the casing of javein.hope it ll stand the test of time.blackberry should bring out a different design

  • When will blackberry make a device that transends its own brand and not crompromise its features in every device it makes.. blackberry just seems real bland and saturated..

  • Blackberry is aruguably one of the most saturated brand currently on the market.. Designs of each device are similar to one another as well as its features..

  • i agree!!!! im waiting for the right bb to come along before i upgrade my trusty 8310

  • I am going to sell me Bold and buy the Tour but why BB don't give the wireless option on it. Anybody have a answer

  • Since BB is already very successful in the high-end consumer. Curve 8520 and Tour 9630 are probably BB's new entry level phones use to target the mid consumers.

  • Who says the bold is too big...? You guys are just little fellas I guess.

  • i have come to belive that bb has set up a pritty nice platfor for its self and the tour in just another gun in bb arsenl

  • i would stick with the e71 i also have the white e71 and i work in a phone shop and compared the 2 e71 comes out on top

  • look up phonedog on youtube for any info on this phone

  • fu**in hell!! 8310 gps but no wifi 8320 wifi but no gps 8900 wifi gps gud camera no 3g 9630 3g gps gud camera but no wifi 8520 wifi gps but no 3g 9000 wifi 3g gps but chunkyy wit sh** camera and batt life!! when are they gna make a BB thats the size of the curve 8900 and has GPS WIFI 3G and A 3.2MP CAMERA???

  • The BB phone phones are the best phones for Business and Phone use. I got the Curve 8900 and Bold 9000. Both great but Bold little too big. But I do not know Can someone tell me what Blackberry Doing? Blackberry has already the Curve 8900 and Bold why now introducing Curve 8520 and 9630? I am waiting for new Blackberry Storm 2 or new Bold called Onyx.

  • Tour is 522mHz cpu. Bold is still the fastest blackberry, if the Tour was faster BB would've made a big deal about it. It's Verizon/Sprint's version of the at&t/t-mobile's curve 8900. Only changes between the tow are physical and 3G/wifi.

  • this gagdget sucks, no wifi...better wait for Onyx/Pluto/Magnum

  • in Indonesia people like to buy expensive stuff like this just for life style, there's no BB onyx in indo, but it will enable so fast, like bb tour there's a seller sold this stuff so expensive around $770 in dollar and rp.7.700.000,- in rupiah..

  • I'm still look around whether to become BB user or stick with my E71. reviewing the spec, I cant found the processor speed for this Tour9630. Can someone tell me, is it the same with Bold i.e CPU 624 MHz or more powerfull ?

  • it is simple 3G version of 8900 javeline. I did not find any video on youtube. Is it really worth.

  • in indonesia expensive stuff is very famous. he..he.. btw in indonesia is there onyx or not yet?? i'm stiil confused to buy bold or jave...

  • 9630 has already been available inindonesia but black market condition..the price is very expensive..7100000 in idr..but if it has been released the price will be more competitive (decreasing)..

  • BolD yes OR just 8900 this one ....nop or wait for onyx the best is coming

  • it looks like Blackberry onyx, and the others, blackberry magnum, pluto, both of that are dreadfully design that I've ever seen on Blackberry type before

  • is tour = onyx??

  • True, but in that case, BB becomes a manufacturer that is only producing sets for corporate sales and not caring for individual user's requirement.

  • I am a BB user and a big fan, however, I have no clue why BB would decide not to include wifi?? Do they know that in this age, users want a complete phone? And its hard to sacrifice one feature for the sack of other?

  • All features is ok.. but the connectivity no longger with WiFi...

  • Its not about putting in WIFI or not - there are corporates - any plenty of them who provide BlackBerries to their employees and they have their security policies enforced on it when you do the enterprise activation so much so that you can not install any application at all - hence they dont want their corporate network to be bypassed by the handset to exchange any information from the handset. This is a security feature not a lacking. Secondly, there are corporates who still do not allow camera phones to be brought into their premises that's why RIM is still offering BBerries without cameras. I hope this clear everyone's doubts. Aasim from Singapore

  • BOLD babyyy...the best phone I ever had...waiting for onyx..

  • BOLD! Without a doubt..

  • - The resolution is flawless - Camera is decent for a phone, it will take decent photos to get devloped on a 4x6 - MP3 & Media manager is awesome, on the organization with playlists and what not - Upgraded software is always a plus - Faster model, less loading than last generations (curve, pearl, world) - Blackberry with all the built in apps ( that you dont have to purchase or download) is awesome - SYNCablility (if thats a word) is amazing. I use googleSYNC to do all mine OTA SYNCing - Why is everyone complaining about wifi? Get a half decent data plan, they have dropped in price by sooo much, and suck it up! really... anyways thats my two cents! more to come later. This is the amazing Matchu, signing off.

  • yup i agree put it this way RIM ppl live in different era where smartphone doesn't need wifi yes it is a very sexy cool looking phone .....heeiii.....wait a minute TOUR hmm means always on a tour owww...thats why you dont need wifi.....shame you lack of res camera...huahuahua

  • RIM is the most backward mobile company in the world instead of putting new technology into its devices it like to leave things out....? the Bold had wifi and 3g and this one is missing wifi....? why would you do that as a company your guys are stupid or something? and a 3.mp camera is so 2003 last time i check we are in 2009 LG, Sony, and Samsung has made even 5.mp obsolete. So what is RIM doing all this time the storm is a let down and the storm 2 is no difference. omg i dont know what people buy blackberry in the first place? ok ok i get that they have good services but that can only go so far for so long? in the name of all things good about this hp RIM really need remove all their top management!!!!!!

  • blackberry - wifi = major fail

  • What i dont understand is why blackberry always release a version of a phone with all features, and then release a scaled down version of that phone after. Its like they are going backward. The release of the curve 8900 and then the curve 8520 is just a perfect example.

  • buy the tour not the bold

  • its a no no phone get your 8900 now its a better blackberry device.. tour no wifi ..... is it smartphone??(compare to nokia,son er,lg,apple,samsung)smartphone...2009 smartphone but no wifi LAME......

  • it's like 9530 and 8830, the cdma comes with injected system, the card slot only works for gsm

  • great!...another blackberry!

  • If you look back Blackberry cellphones that were released since last year until now, you may be abble to find about 2-3 models that have both wifi and GPS. The rest of their cellphones only have EITHER Wifi or GPS. In addition, the camera has the maximum resolution of 3.15MP. Many average price cellphones from Samsung and LG have the minimum resolution of 3.xxMP. I am Canadian, and I feel shame for RIM, which is a Canadian company that doesn't have any improvement of their technology. What they try to do is changing the name of their cellphones from one model to the other with a very similar features and technologies.

  • Still no wifi means still no sale to me. I am forced to look elsewhere.

  • the designer must forgot the WiFi. Please add the feature before lunching it :) i am not going to buy BB without a WiFi

  • i just bought the bb tour n iphone3Gs...i prefer the bb tour. it all adds up to what u need from a phone. thats all.

  • No mention of the ram in the specs - only internal "ROM" memory at 256mb. I'm assuming the reason for omission is it is still the lowly 128mb ram that is on other models. Why can't they get the issues sorted - add wifi and put in at least 256 RAM and 512mb (ROM) internal memory. Would be excellent phones and get more customers.

  • I mean a regular or a High Capacity. lol

  • 1 card slot!! one regular and one High Capacity

  • this is the best design. but fails in yes..like every comment..the wifi..but take a good look. half bold and siz of a curve? its beauty is so slim, and sexy, its key pad unique and stlish the colour, black like pbama..wat could one ask for? or uguys sooooo cheap u need the wifi? then go for something else..dont cry about it...only rich people like me can affoed no wifi..so stop complaining..my 13 year old son uses my bold, and say its cool..but after trying the tour..he besides himself.

  • 3g??no need 3g ....use 3g and your batt will runs out very fast better buy curve 8900

  • so the gsm n cdma network run together or turnover??so dissapointing no wifi..

  • so the gsm n cdma network run together or turnover??so dissapointing no wifi..

  • Does Blackberry have a noise cancallation system? Which is better comparing to Crystal Talk of Motorola and Voice Clarity of Nokia?

  • is it 2 card slot ? or only 1 slot ? thanks

  • depends on if u use alot of wifi, or u prefer size..me personally using a bold right now,,,,got 3g and also wifi,..best blackberry in terms of size..but size go for 8900

  • GREAT PHONE its like curve with bold keyboard .. ! LOVE IT big keyboard smaller than the bold wifi ? i dont use it, it doesnt make difference with me at all !! much much better than storm that i've already used

  • They says BB has some thing like that but it never worked like Crystal talk of RAZR series.

  • Based on my experience with the Blackberry Bold 9000 it was the worst one i've ever had with this device hardware. it was badly assembled i don't know why. i love it, love the software and their service. but when it comes to the hardware i give it 4 out 10. can you imagine that the speaker sound always getting low so i just do some magic trick and it go back as is. i wonder why that is ? any way hope this will be a better bold since i like the blackberry service.

  • awesome phone..i cant wait till comes out..who need wifi..?just add the data and stop complaining

  • got this phone and the first day i open it i had a problem already. the track wheel does not want to scroll right...did not even activate it yet and already sending it in for repair smh

  • i want to buy a blackberry and i dont know i am confused between Tour and Bold can u suggest ?

  • Guess rim thought: Oh maybe we can make three phones... Hmm javelin no 3G but wifi, bold 3G and wifi, and Tour hmmm what shall we do with this one... Oh i know!!! 3G but no wifi!!! Bummer. But who cares, madly in love with my bold, en guess what i have 3G AND wifi haha!

  • I agree

  • Does Blackberry have a voice clarity or noise cancellation system? Like Crystal Talk

  • i agree!

  • better 8900 come'on or just buy bold .....still the best blackberry yet

  • With the 3G connectivity you really don't need the wifi. Believe me 3G works well in your conutry and wifi could soon become oblivious.

  • for me.. bold is still better.. n perfect if compare to tour .. tour ( bold +javelin) i dont why no wifi for tour ?? after bold.. there is no wifi.. like storm.. n the new one TOUR.. is it too expensive for wifi ?

  • A second improper phone from bb next to storm. whata phone witout wifi....

  • no cpu? no wi-fi? so this is just a curve with a bold keyboard hahaha....stinks.... BOLD is still faster and wayyyyyyy better!

  • wow, it'z cool ;-)

  • this phones has 3g

  • Ok...I had palm pre for only a month and had to replace it three times...I finally sold it and just got RIM's Tour. My experience with the WiFi using Pre - it is almost usless. When you're home, turn on you laptop and watch youtube videos on your computer in a BIG screen! 3G speeds now days are great for all of the functions in this phone. I have only used it for one day but if feels great, it looks good, and last but not least...the cell phone feature is crisp clear - something a lot of companies are forgetting about.

  • its a handsome phone for sure. nothing revolutionary just sleeker sexier and faster. just needs wifi obvously

  • I was disappointed because the features not included Video call and wifi...design almost same like blackbery Bold...

  • i think the blackberry tour is a good phone but they would of put wifi on it, bEtter the pics wasn't good and have wifi.out of all the blackberry phone i know bold is the best of all and thats the one i will buy.

  • Does it have a voice clarity or noise cancellation system?

  • no wifi? sux a lot, 9000 is better

  • seriously agreed, thought they had something going too... its a nice looking phone but now no wi-fi... what kind of smartphone is THAT in this day and age

  • The lack of 3g makes no difference at all as even the 2g models are reasonably quick on the net, well my 8900 is anyways, but you need wi-fi to run youtube. shame its missing.

  • the onyx will be the bold replacement - 3g,wiFi,optical trackpad instead of trackball - crackberry.com

  • 7.2

  • it has the top of a storm and the bottom of a bold.. what the hell is that? a mixture with the worst features?

  • most companies in the world never gives the best they can on the next step of their product.. i do not understand.. i think you should give all the best on your next product to increase your market amount then with the money you earn you can use it for the next product to improve it with the new technology..

  • no wife? what a joke..come on blackberry

  • this phone should never be launched..no wifi? what a joke

  • Can I access and play video in youtube only with BIS (3G)?? Bold's user can you (Especially @Indonesia)? (I'm Javeliner)

  • maybe an upgrade for bb 8830 the spec almost the same - camera-ram-procr

  • this is not an upgrade for bold stick to your bold

  • Its a marketing ploy - obviously over produced the 8900 and need to move stock. Losing credibility - absolute disgrace if you ask me - they desreve lashings for this rediculous model.

  • I am thinking the big issue with this and the last Blackberry is.... DON'T HAVE WiFi

  • why does rim cannot make all their phones a 3G-wifi enabled!! blackberrys are suppose to be a smartphone and they are expensive phones!! but their phones are missing 1 or 2 features every time!!! this is just a curve with a 3G network but without a wifi!!!

  • why does rim cannot make all their phones a 3G-wifi enabled!! blackberrys are suppose to be a smartphone and they are expensive phones!! but their phones are missing 1 or 2 features every time!!! this is just a curve with a 3G network!!!

  • If you are a real Blackberry user (either a Business user or a consumer looking for data/email on the move) then the lack of WiFi shouldnt be an issue. If you're in an area where you pick up decent 3G signal I find this more than satisfactory for any task I can throw at my Bold. And lets be honest, the whole point of a Blackberry is to turn your downtime into uptime and to be mobile, if you're stuck somewhere using WiFi, you've really defeated the point of this otherwise lovely device. By the way, dont work for Blackberry, just love 'em!

  • I want it. I need it. Will it comes to Indonesia? I hope it will bundle with Fren or Smart

  • Is That Good?

  • wifi is no longer required while having the amazing blackberry connect. being 3G enabled, cant ask for more

  • its a 8900 but worst with 9000(bold) buttons thats it. ill wait see what the storm 2 will be like in september

  • This phone was rumored to get an optical pab, to replace the trackball, I guess that didn't work out. Anyways this is kind of like a blackberry for someone who really needs just a good standard communicator with a few high end features. Personally I think the 8900 Curve is better, and its got Wi-Fi.

  • BB needs to get their act together. Look at specs of Nokia E72,beats BB in all department.The most important being the camera & battery..

  • If you're upset about Wi-Fi get the 8900 Curve (Javelin). I own one and its amazing, it may cost more but its specs and features are way better then this in every way. An it looks better I think.

  • No radio, no worries, but no wifi? c'mon, like world ruin in my head! No wifi = no youtube! OMG can't live without youtube! RIM, how dour you! I'm banning you to be a frog, giant ugly green frog!

  • It sucks how blackberry phones look so good and the apps are superb BUT WHY can't they make it wi-fi enabled??!!??? arrgghhh!!!

  • crackberry peeps go check out the Nokia e72! change is good, this time. :)

  • i didnt want to say it again but, no WLAN??! come on. we all know RIM could have done better than that. :c

  • No WiFi? Must be headed for Verizon!

  • it's not about the money as a business man i'm forced to use the bold cause it's very efficient but to big and i get no 3g in my part of the world so 95% of the time i use wifi cause it's faster when online, so i was goin to get the sleeker 9630 so ppl do have there reasons for wanting wifi buddy.

  • lol!!! thats right, bold is the best, except the camera, bold is the best. I think this BB is just a bad upgrade of curve 8900

  • This thing will blow everything - gayPhones, Samsung, LG, Moto, Nokias, etc in US. Just watch all 4 US carriers put heavy subsidies on it and 40-50$ data plans. US consumers are so dumb... My only complain with the device is the trackball. Wonder when BB will replace it with something that will not break every two month on a heavy data user like me?

  • So the upgrade is, obviously, the 3G, but now is lacking the wifi. Perhaps the next one will be complete... Or maybe is another marketing strategy...

  • No wifi??? Talk about a detour!! Lol!

  • when are blackberry going to rival the bold with a wifi and 3G handset, ?

  • I think that this phone it's very interesting becauce you can used it in any situation they offred many fonction we must buy it from [email protected]

  • Why would you skip on the WIFI. Was getting excited until I read no WIFI..

  • You all should understand, RIM products are not for all the fasion conciois Nokia fans, but is a proper business tool which is designed to do a apriculare job and RIM do it very well. Their build quality and messaging is second to none. I have both a Blackberry Bold & a Nokia N95 8G. Both have their strong points. A bit comparing a Merc E class to a Nissan Skyline. So don't bag Blackberry!

  • The one who made fun about 64k display, let's play pack man. Obvioisly you've got no Idea! Just look at a Blackberry display. The beat any other display hands down for visual clarity and sun readablity, no doubt. You can't judge the puding until you eat it. I just got a Blackberry Bold and it's display just bites!

  • No Wifi!! hahahahah, u must b kidding :D

  • i dont see any reason for this phone , why blackberry hire new designers to make new phone and to throw old desginers from they work cause they do is copy paste from old phone they just change the color

  • hspda=3.5g

  • Is this phone a upgrade verison of Bold 9000 ? A 3G verison of the Curve 8900 ? Or just generally a new design ? can someone tell me ! Much thanks x

  • Hello, Does anyone know the speed of the 3G in this phone coz it only says HSDPA:HSUPA

  • what about the speed of the cpu in this model

  • What do you need LAN feature for? This Phone must come with internet plan anyway. I have Bold 9000 with ATT and never use LAN feature

  • ha ha ha 65k display????????????? lets play pacman!!!!

  • No wlan Blackberry still doing mistakes 8900 no 3G new model with 3g but no wifi poor decision from blackberry when u will come with all in one phones

  • Come on! what do you think RIM? is there any difficulty for you to put all type of connections into single unit? why this has 3G and that has WiFi etc. make some progress.

  • Come on blackberry, all of your phones are the same, no new design, same old phone with a different shell. No Wi-Fi? Thats a dealbreaker for about half of the people considering it. Its no wonder why there is no Blackberry in other countries as people there realize they need Wi-Fi

  • Phone looks nice, but still not up to date compared to other phones out there. No WLAN what kind of phone doesn't have that now days, even a buy one get one free phone has that option. There is nothing special to all these new Blackberry they just look different but still work the same.

  • does it realy take blackberry 15 months to release this.

  • does blackberry messenger work on this phone

  • Well rim i thought this was going to be the one, perfect size and keyboard but i live in a non 3G part of the world and i use a lot of wlan as it is faster than the current service which i only use if there is no wlan all i can say is u guys pushed me to the HTC touch pro 2, guess you guys don't need my money anyways.

  • no WLAN waste ah time an money

  • I await the arrival! i cant wait! the bold and the curve combined together! i really cant wait! x

  • Very true, I also agree. I don't see any other reason as to why they didn't include Wifi other then to have you buy the Data plan from the provider.

  • What the fluffly duck is RIM doing. Rubbish camera again no WIFI for which they got hammered on the Storm, no new design, no new anything. Rubbish and rubbish voting on this site I see and with obvious reason. Sack the head of marketing at RIM.

  • When you buy a Blackberry on contract you have to buy the Blackberry service which indludes unlimited internet (really about 500MB). So why would you need WLAN?

  • you hit the nail right on the head.

  • This phone looks too much like the Curve 8900. Also I believe the reason for no WLAN is because they want you to purchase the Blackberry Data Plan from your Carrier.

  • GSMArena, this phone was release on BELL (Canada) first not sprint or Verizon.

  • why.. would one not buy 8900 ??

  • i love blackberry phones right now iam having blackberry curve 8900 its a very nice phone i got from the mobile store chennai they given good offers for that price is also very less 24990 only i think this phone comes below 20000 only

  • BlackBarry need realy to work hard on the life time of battery.

  • I agree this phone is pointless but have RIM developed a creative block or something? The curve was half old curve half storm in design and this again is half storm half bold. How about a fresh design that doesnt look like two existing handsets taped together?

  • it's a curve minus Wifi Plus 3G, Wow RIM reached the peak of their creativity with this phone

  • can some one please explain wlan to me. thanx pg

  • what is wlan? can someone please explain, im not up on phones, cheers pg

  • This device is basically an upgraded Bold 900. So what;s the point of having both on the market, when the Curve 8900 can appeal to those not needing 3g? Bold < Curve < Tour

  • Wlan no problem.now 3G is very important.

  • come on blackberry, what are u playing at, u need to sort out these new phones, the curve is the only decent phone in the last few years. catch up blackberry.

  • I love this phone. it has everything i expect on a blackberry, except for the WLAN.

  • nice phone but wtf no wlan? :s

  • I don't understand who would by this phone,phone just looks better but his specifications are wors than curve 8900.

  • A phone that is targeting Business men without a WLAN is useless!

  • hi wait for blackberry 9220 better

  • no wlan

  • awesome..n beauty

  • please shut this unit down. they are targeting the Executive class and have excluded the Wi-Fi and instead of it have put a 3MP camera. Shud we start taking pictures from Blackbery instead of getting the Connectivity?

  • Its a old school toy

  • No WiFi... Whats' the point? 9000 Bold & 8900 Curve still better than this one

  • first !
