Nokia N900 vs BlackBerry Bold 9700

blackberry bold 9700 official Nokia N900 vs BlackBerry Bold 9700Here is the last comparison between Nokia N900 and a BlackBerry product which this time will be the BlackBerry Bold 9700. First I want to remember you that this is not the first time when I talk about this BlackBerry Bold 9700 on this blog so if you want a review of the phone, you can search on this blog.

Just after looking on few specifications of the phones, I can say that this is the most similar phone built by BlackBerry to Nokia N900 excluding the design. As usually, this BlackBerry Bold 9700 has a regular 2.44” 480x360 display while Nokia N900 has a 3.5” 800x480 touch screen display. Anyway, both phones are featuring full qwerty keyboard but Nokia N900 has a sliding keyboard because of the touch screen.

The similar feature that I like is the 3.5mm audio jack and I hope I will never stop saying this because there will be a phone not featuring this.

Here is a weak point of Nokia N900 namely the battery. As you should know if you read the other comparisons, Nokia N900 is featuring a 1320 mAh battery while this BlackBerry Bold 9700 is featuring a 1500 mAh battery.

Usually, here Nokia N900 was winning which features 32GB of internal memory but this time, the BlackBerry Bold 9700 is featuring a microSD slot car which supports up to 32GB external memory but still, Nokia N900 is the winner because after adding a microSD card, it will exceed the BlackBerry Bold 9700.

BlackBerry Bold 9700 has the same “power” as Nokia N900 namely a 624 Mhz processor and also 256 MB of RAM memory because as I said, these phones are very similar. Also, both phones are featuring Wi-Fi and GPS but Nokia N900 has 3.5G connection while BlackBerry Bold 9700 doesn’t get 3G connection which is a big minus.

Here may be quite a big difference but this is not the most important thing talking about phones. Anyway, I have to say that Nokia N900 has a 5 MP camera while BlackBerry Bold 9700 has a 3.2 MP camera but I don’t think that after making some photos, the difference will be so big if there will be any difference.

According to eBay, the prices for a new unlocked BlackBerry Bold 9700 are starting from $348.88 while the prices for a new unlocked Nokia N900 are starting from $468.00.

Looking at the specifications of both phones and especially at the prices of them, I think that BlackBerry Bold 9700 would be a very good replacer for Nokia N900.

    Deat Anetoiu.

    I have a blackberry. Its nice. But, Blackberry doesnt make any product that comes close to the N900. You leave out all the important parts, like screen real estate, dedicated gpu, hardware 3d, Maemo 5 (Best OS out there now).

    Seriously man. Have you even gotten a chance to handle a N900?

    Rgds,

    useless review..!
    n900 rocks..its maemo powered..!!!!!!

  3. This comparision is not having any sense, N900 is much more different phone available today where you can not compare with BB or IP…

    Sorry to say you, Before I started using N900, using N97 which is also Nokia Phone..
    But after using N900, I can not use any other phone …

    Yes, N900 battery is not much stronger but It is fantastic phone I ever seen..

    Cheers
