Oh yeah that’s right the RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 Smartphone is here as it has made its official debut. Research in Motion decided to take the wraps of this handset which has been based on the BlackBerry 9000, the difference with the Bold is that it has a new gorgeous display; the name also suggests a new direction for RIM, one that the smartphone maker feels is important for their future.
So what is so beautiful about the RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 Smartphone? Well firstly it features a half-VGA screen which has a pixel resolution of 480×320 and produces 65,000-colors, the performance of the screen will truly blow you away the colors just seem to pop of the screen as they are both crisp and sharp. With the older 9000 watching video playback was not that good as things were both blurred and pixilated, but this is now a thing of the past. Other changes with the RIM BlackBerry Bold 9000 are with the menu interface, this has had a bit of a revamp as the icons look more modern. The handset itself looks more elegant than anything Research in Motion has had to offer before, the silver trim along with the curved edges helps to complement the black casing. The rear of the phone has been finished a little different than the front, it features a leatherette texture, this adds a little luxuary to the feel of the handset.
