About:

This BlackBerry Smartphone comes with a compact & stylish touch screen form casing which is only 1.12cm in depth, therefore easy to carry in your pocket. It has a fashionable design & comes in a sleek black coloured casing. It has a beautifully clear display which not only provides a viewing display but a responsive touch screen too. This screen measures 3.2 inches in diameter & has a high colour display. You can also use the trackball navigation control to glide though menus & select options if you prefer.

This Smartphone offers flexible usability & comes with many features to assist you with mobile communication & entertainment. It supports the BlackBerry® operating system version 7.0 plus useful technologies including 3G, Wi-Fi® & near field communication. Along with the built in memory you can extend your memory further by inserting a compatible memory card.

Main disadvantages:

• BlackBerry Internet Service account is a must to enjoy all the phone features
• No physical QWERTY keyboard (a potential deal breaker for a BlackBerry)
• No videocalling and no front facing camera either
• No Flash support for the web browser
• No FM radio
• Screen has no haptic feedback
• Poor audio quality and loudspeaker performance

Conclusion:
It's like we already met with the Curve 9380. Since it’s a completely different approach to the Curve lineup there is just no basis for parallels with older Curves. But remembering the previous BlackBerry OS 7-based smartphones we had, the Torch 9860 will surely ring a bell.


Enjoy...
