Also, addresses that are included in messages are automatically detected and can be displayed on the map at the expense of a few clicks.
The map data has also been updated, including more cities than ever. We can still think of at least several apps with more detailed maps but let's not rain on their parade. When we reviewed the BlackBerry Bold we said it had everything a BlackBerry fan could want, except for maybe the more compact body of the Curve.
And it's pretty obvious that someone over at RIM has been paying attention. They've done exactly that. And no, we're not taking credit, just giving it. It's been more than a year between the official launch of the two devices and the Bold understandably faces much tougher competition. Yet the more compact and more powerful handset seems fit and ready to take on its rivals just as successfully. The tight connection between handset and service is a double-edged sword however. You either have to take the whole package or nothing at all.
A Bold without a Blackberry service plan is about as good as a buck LG GW so it's barely worth spending so much on it. Now, regarding price we have to point out that a BlackBerry Bold is about dollars more expensive than a Nokia E72 unlocked so some users might find themselves priced out of alternatives.
Plus the Nokia ships with a lifetime Nokia Messaging plan - so push email is something you don't need to spend a dime on once you get the handset itself. That same Nokia E72 is the new Bold's main market rival. A much better camera and overall multimedia experience come in a pretty sleek steel body. So unless you need the level of security of the BlackBerry Servers, we have to admit the E72 does look like the clear winner here.
Nokia E One can also take a look at the Nokia E71 and its E71x American counterpart. It now sells much cheaper than the BlackBerry Bold at about US dollars and offers a similar camera and connectivity options. E71 is one of the most successful smartphones ever produced by the Finnish manufacturer and has a tad worse performance due to its slower CPU, but even the outdated Symbian S60 UI is more user-friendly than the BlackBerry OS be it v5. Windows Mobile also has a few alternatives to the BlackBerry Bold to offer.
Yet all those are mere alternatives and cannot fully replace the Bold This is not about the phone, it's all about the service you get WITH the phone. If you are not, it would be good to know that the Bold without BlackBerry service ranks kinda low in terms of pure bang-for-your-buck. GSMArena team , 8 December
