Blackberry Torch

Now...here it goes again! 


"how you have the best of both worlds with the full 3.2 inch touch screen and BlackBerry keyboard"


To start off, have you guys noticed that more and more phones are equipped with a touchscreen feature? Of course, this applies to the mid range or we called it lower-end phones. Unless you could grab a touchscreen phone at RM300.


So, what so good about a 3.2 inch touchscreen phone? 


In my own opinion, a 3.2 inch touchscreen phone is more than what is enough for users to experience the pros and cons of a touchscreen. Well of course, some said a bigger screen means more enjoyment but somehow I disagrees with it. Look at the picture below.

We all know that iPhone 4 has a 3.5 inch touchscreen with Retina Display featured. But, do you think the big few tiny inch help a lot? Not really. The phone as you see in the photo is quite huge to be put into your ordinary pocket. Imagine slipping one of these device could cost you a fortune! Let's see another example of over-sized phone.

The HTC HD2

The Desire HD

If you noticed, both of them have a touchscreen of 4.3 INCH! Imagine that on your pocket, how odd will it look when there's a big square thingy that is visible on your tight jeans. 

Surely, the Blackberry Torch offers 3.2 inch touchscreen which users find it not too troublesome when put into pocket. Not too small such that it will make it seem like a cheap China phone!

Most reviews on the internet finds that typing on a touchscreen seems harder than it looks. You will need some adaptations first before you could stop sending wrong content of sms to the wrong person. Then how? Genie is here to grant you your wish! 

Now with the Blackberry keyboard, you won't have to keep tapping on your touchscreen phone to type. It comes with a QWERTY keyboard which makes emailing and messaging easy. 

A glimpse on the Blackberry keyboard

If you put this in comparison with the BlackBerry Bold 9700, you can see that the BlackBerry Bold 9700 itself cannot be slided unlike the BlackBerry Torch 9800. This is definitely the best slide-touchscreen phone I have even dreamed of! And of course, the buttons of the keyboards are same, nonetheless. 



Does the phone already make you start drooling all over your keyboard? Don't worry! Celcom is giving away selling the phone from as low as RM8 when you sign up for their Celcom Exec or Celcom Biz plans!! But take note that the prize will increase if you're not the first 10.

The first 10 shall get RM8, the next 100 will get it at RM488 and the following one will get it for RM888!
So many "8"s, Celcom this time sure "fat" kao kao!!

At the same time, Celcom is giving away free Limited Edition BlackBerry Torch Door Cover, free BlackBerry Torch hard casing and free Call Me Tones for 1 month worth of RM5, games, apps for BlackBerry!! Just dial *118# and select the stuffs for BlackBerry!! Now, save your lunch money and get yourself to the venue here!

Still waiting for what?! Let's GO!!
