BlackBerry Bold 9700 Review

Quite a lot of recent RIM’s BlackBerry phones looked quite alike (Bold and the Curve) and it could mean one of two things — either RIM doesn’t have any more design ideas left or it has almost perfected the form factor that many people loved about the qwerty smartphone that it doesn’t want to veer away from it. That is the case of the BlackBerry Bold 9700.

Samsung Z560 Reviewed

I posted my final review of the Samsung Z560 demo phone loaned to me by Globe. You can read my full review over at PinoyTechBlog.

It was the first time I have extensively used a 3G/HSDPA phone. Since it was primarily aimed for mobile connectivity, I didn’t do much calling and texting. Most of the test involved downloading live streaming TV shows, listening to Internet radios, video-calling and internet browsing.

After testing that phone, I actually got more interested in buying a new one for myself. And yes, I think I’m gonna go for the N73.
