#1 Post at 27-11-2010 12:13  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Is anyone using the Blackberry Torch? Has anyone upgraded to the Blackberry Torch 9800 and any opinions? Is it worth upgrading from Blackberry 9700. I have an older model and the "pearl" trackball collects dust and gives problems every few months.

#4 Post at 27-11-2010 20:20  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #1 southstar's post Just bought the Torch 9800 and using it for about 5 days. There is a defect in the design. The lock key on the upper left hand corner is very sensitive and comes unlocked once it gets into your pocket. Other than that, I like the new OS 6 and the enlarged screen but still prefer the Bold 9700. FYI, the new Bold would be coming out in the first quarter of next year, also with OS6. One question, I seem to miss overnight emails on my Torch when I put it on silent mode at night? Anybody had a similar experience? This has happened two nights now but I've only be using the new Torch for 4 days. I do get the missed emails on my server and also my iPhone 4 though. This is a curious situation as I always thought that Blackberry is the most reliable when it comes to receiving and sending out email.

I was concerned though reading that the web browser is slow. Your thoughts? How do you rate the web surfing and browsing experience. My primary need is for email which is why I stick to Blackberry more so than an iPhone, however I would like a better web experience if it's possible with the Torch?

#7 Post at 28-11-2010 19:49  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L Reply #5 TonyToro's post I actually find the browser in the Torch a big improvement over the Bold 9700 but think the iPhone 4.0 is far superior when it comes to browsing speed. Another gripe I have is the battery life is greatly reduced when compared to the Bold 9700 and I can barely get through a day without charging it twice.

#8 Post at 29-11-2010 23:31  Profile P.M.  Font size: S M L I did the 9700 to torch switch, biggest mistake was using some older apps on it that were not compatable. Just make sure you are on OS 246, it is very solid for me. 141 was not so good that shipped with earlier devices. I am enjoying the Torch a lot. Let us know how you progress.
