today on d3 live we're going to be talking about the two brand new leaked blackberries the blackberry bold touch in the blackberry torch to now both of these devices are going to be a pretty incremental upgrade from the previous generation blackberries is they both sport touchscreen displays of course there's nothing new for the torch that was going to be the big next new blackberry I didn't really quite turn out too well however both of these devices have pretty big upgrades so I'm go ahead and talk a little bit about what we know about them so far so the first one is going to be the bold touch which in my opinion is probably going to be the flagship of the blackberry line so of course everyone knows and loves blackberry bold probably you know just just got a great keyboard pretty much great across the board however as the name implies the new bold is going to have a touchscreen display I now don't figure it still going to have the same well it might be a little bit tweaked but it's going to have still a very very good this school keyboard but in addition it's going to have a 2.8 inch multi-touch display now while 2.8 inches is definitely on the smaller side generally touchscreen displays need to be a little bit bigger for you no room to do all your multi-touch gestures and all that kind of good stuff the blackberry is it's going to be pretty good I think overall now the screen like I said it's going to be 2.8 inches so we have a resolution is 640 by 480 very high resolution for like I said a pretty small display but where the real things are really going to start happening it's going to have a 1.2 gigahertz Snapdragon processor in 768 megabytes of RAM so this means is that Oh at blackberry OS six point one is going to absolutely scream on this as well as on the torch so of course you know blackberry obviously blackberry tends to be a little bit of a lightweight operating system you know not really needing them the dual core tegra processors not that kind of stuff so I think well 1.2 kicker process will be more than not to make this thing absolutely fly so the ball touch that looks really quite good and also let's go ahead and talk loaded about the torch to so just like the bold it's going to be a fairly similar small upgrade it's not going to be anything major and we'll have a 3.7 inch display with a resolution of 480 x 800 which is a nice upgrade but where the most of the big things that happen with the torch is that's what these specs I'm a lot of people kind of complained about the blackberry torch the original one was because it just didn't have a whole lot of powers you know I had a pretty weak process or matinee however they definitely did remedy this with the the torch to with a the same one point two gigahertz Snapdragon processor instead hundred 16 megabytes of RAM so overall I'm really looking forward to these two I mean I still think the library really needs the brand new Q Nick's operating system which of course they're working on with the playbook I'll Vinci to come to the phones but think they definitely really do need to get that sooner or later however this you know this update with The much faster processor speeds and all that kinda stuff she definitely do a really good job of keeping everyone who's fan of blackberries happy ok so if with the second segment of d3 live I'm going to be taking live questions from everyone in the chat as always every episode d3 live is filmed in front of a live audience but quite a few people in here right now and my dog so for there so we're gonna take a couple of questions and I just got answered a few things on how much is a blackberry bold touch going to be well the thing is with that is that this is a late rumor um I would assume two hundred dollars on contract saying is you know nine option of all major new phones but we'll have to wait and see probably next month or so when they officially now exactly what the price will be on the blackberry bold touch do I think it is a little too late that is a perfect question uh-huh if you guys have watched my videos before you know that I'm not a huge fan of blackberry in general I think that it's I think basically iOS I know android all the cut so I think all these operating systems are really just just just just hurting blackberry a lot so I think library I think these these phones are going to be nice they're going to help but I really think that blackberry is not going to really take back off and really try to to make any positive head ground headroom whatever the phrase is but I don't think library is really going to start growing Deanna and people are really going to start coming back to library until they get the nuke UNIX operating system which of course is what they're putting on the playbook once they get that all worked out hopefully fairly soon i would price expect maybe next year so that they can get that worked out anyway guys that's it for this
