BlackBerry 9360 review
Display
The new BlackBerry 9360 features a 2.44-inch display with a resolution of 480 x 360 pixels. The small screen does well – vivid, bright and crisp. BlackBerry smartphones are the best with the font size management; it won’t be an issue for you. As a result, you may be able to use it comfortably. Nonetheless, while it’s fine to indulge in occasional media use on its 2.44-inch screen, watching videos on it may not appeal. Overall, the display does what is expected out of it – giving you a bright and crisp screen to carry on with your basic mobile functions with ease.
Looks and feel
The BlackBerry 9360 features an extremely slim design to make it look like a cool smartphone. The phone is also almost weightless as it weighs just 99 grams. Overall, an average user is bound to be impressed by the looks of this new phone from BlackBerry. The phone offers a premium feel to it, something missing from most Curve range of smartphones. It is where the BlackBerry 9360 scores huge!
Camera specs
The best BlackBerry 9360 specification in the curve range of the BlackBerry smartphones is the 5MP camera. The images that you can click with the BlackBerry 9360 are not noisy, have depth and crisp and clear. Your photos will appear brighter and appealing as long as the lighting is good in the background. The phone may not click good pictures in low-light conditions.
Battery specs
The BlackBerry 9360 specifications as long as the battery is concerned are not that great. The 1000mAh battery a letdown as it can give you power just for 8-10 hours. You can compare it with the BlackBerry Bold 9780 battery at 1500mAh lasting for at least 2 days, and find that the BlackBerry 9360 battery specs are average.
Performance
The BlackBerry 9360 features the 512MB RAM, which is powered by the 800MHz Qualcomm processor. As you can see, there is a boost in the processor power that you get in the BlackBerry 9360 smartphone. The BlackBerry Operating System 7 also compliments the processor to run it averagely. However, if you compare the OS7 with OS6 of the Bold 9780, it is not yet faster. However, it does not mean that the new BlackBerry 9360 smartphone is a bad performer. Nonetheless, the phone that was costing similar to Bold 9780 was expected to perform better.
Our take
The BlackBerry 9360 features a sleek design, a crisp display, nice camera specs, a bit slugging processor and OS7 and bad battery life. However, we may still recommend the BlackBerry 9360 smartphone to a user for its classy looks.
