The reviews for the Tablet PC Playbook have been disappointing - with new smart phones and new operating system will make the Canadian Blackberry manufacturer better. But perfectly happy Blackberry fans will not. Hamburg - That sounds pretty good at first: the new Blackberry Bold 9900 and 9930 models are the thinnest Blackberry yet, there is.
Only 10.5 millimeters thick are they. By comparison, the previous model Bold 9700 is just four millimeters thick, Apple's iPhone 4 an inch thinner. In addition, the new Blackberry faster than their predecessors, have a 1.2-GHz Prozesor, high-speed network technologies such as HSPA + and also eight gigabytes of memory on board.
A touch screen, in addition to the keyboard, it is to make it look more modern than previously. In addition, BlackBerry maker Research in Motion (RIM) has fixed some flaws and techniques built that demonstrate a competitive equipment long ago. One of these is the new camera, which can now video in HD 720p resolution record.
In order to provide location-based service providers a platform that also the augmented reality software is preinstalled Wikitude. In conjunction with the GPS receiver and a compass chip can thus be real-time information about the area show the camera image. These may, for example, special offers in the restaurant across the street.
Also, a NFC chip (Near Field Communications) has found the new device space. Such chips for the NFC short-range radio technology can be found, for example, Samsung's Nexus already in S and all new Nokia smartphones coming this year on the market. In future, mobile phones can be used to pay so.
So it all works, get the new Blackberry and a new operating system, the Blackberry OS 7. This should serve a little bit easier and a little faster than its predecessor, will also be upgraded with a few new features. The main one is Black Berry Balance and will be used to separate personal and business data on the device from one another.
One could say that it will happen to it easier to use the company phone for private as Twitter, Facebook and e-mails without losing data are mixed up. Also that the Blackberry browser is improved and can also search on BlackBerrys by voice using key words, are the other improvements. Where is the new OS? But that's it then good, unfortunately, even with the news.
The bad news number one: the new Blackberry OS 7 will remain for now the two new devices reserved. An upgrade for older models there was no question, said the Canadian group. This message will undoubtedly annoy some BlackBerry users, but should not be overstated: The bottom line is when the new software more like version 6.1, which is somewhat pompously called to version 7.
That is what is probably the worst news for many BlackBerry users who also had hoped for something really new. Namely, long has viewed the RIM group itself, which has its smartphone system has its best days behind and should be replaced with something fresher. This is precisely what RIM had acquired in 2009 the software company QNX.
Potters whose technology is already in Blackberry playbook, the first tablet of the company, and shows there, like a Blackberry OS might look like after a modernization. Such an update had observers now expected for the smartphone - and were disappointed. Even the battery has been slimmed down so it would take some time before RIM separate himself from his old charges and will leave for pastures new.
Whether the new BlackBerry Bold models will hold as long as, at least far away from power outlets questionable. Even the battery has been slimmed down with them, has a capacity of 1230 mAh. The BlackBerry Bold 9700 is however still room for a power storage with 1500 mAh been. To what extent this difference is reflected in the term, we will probably find only in the summer when the Blackberry Bold 9900 and 9930 come to market.
So far at least, the manufacturer makes any information on endurance of the two newcomers.
