coverage already on the site of the new bold for some of the other carriers we'll get this one out of the box you've got blackberry 7 new BlackBerry operating system capacitive touchscreen 2.8 inch with your full keyboard and trackpad down there get this thing fired up is there battery life is there better relief Oh sadness falls across the land it's better I just I didn't know let's find out also in the box maybe the batteries just not installed you get yes indeed the batteries on the stalls fantastic all that'll teach me also in the Box you get a whole bunch of stuff or no it's not that wasn't the battery that was the cleaning cloth man get me excited and unexcited and everything else in the box all your manuals yep but Snapdragon processor 1.2 gigahertz Snapdragon all your manuals your your case what would a blackberry be without a holster case really the explain micro USB charger I only know that's what's called because it's sticking together and it is your micro USB charger there's your blackberry polishing cloth which I mistakenly thought was the battery for a second there three-and-a-half millimeter stereo headset and your USB two micro USB connector now the phone itself it's been a while since I've used a blackberry and this thing's pretty thin I can understand on first glance why everybody so many people are so excited about it although I can also understand why there's some people who aren't that makes a lot of sense right anyway so batteries inside I guess there's no juice in it I'll have to get that I charged up and fired up so we can do a little hands-on with the phone but on the device itself obviously a full QWERTY keyboard on the front capacitive touch screen like we said 2.8 inch you got your buttons down there and your optical thumb pad you've also got 5 megapixel camera on the back with LED flash and 720p HD video recording alright so I've got a plugged in now I've got some power happening on so you can get this blew it up or the battery might just be so dead we're gonna have to wait a little while in the meantime you've got on the left spine your micro USB port and your 300 millimeter headphone jack on the right spot and you've got four buttons three of them arranged in a rocker switch select configuration and then your shortcut key full QWERTY keyboard optical thumb pad your for BlackBerry menu buttons and then a capacitive touchscreen again 2.8 inch phone also has a 12 1230 milliamp hour hour battery Wi-Fi 802 F and BGN t-mobile 4G what they call 4G HSPA+ data speeds eight gigs of internal storage the display by the way 480 by 640 forgot to mention that quad-band GSM what else stereo Bluetooth GPS all that stuff kind of used to full HTML browser Instant Message pre-loaded instant messaging supports bbm of course but also AOL I am Google Talk Windows Live and Yahoo Messenger and you know the phone feels nice in the hand it's it's felt it's pretty thin especially for a blackberry nice styling and of course the keyboard I was recently using the the Sprint X the motorola expert kind of the the Android alternative for BlackBerry users one of them if you will a similar styled phone and it was very narrow and the keyboard was just it's just been too narrow for me to comfortably type on so I'll be psyched to check this one out we'll have to come back soon with a full look at this because I you know it's an unboxing gotta unbox usually there's enough juice in the battery you at least turn the phone on but not right now but that's right cuz you've seen it already blackberry 7 on John's
