This nifty little BlackBerry picks up where the popular Bold 9780 left off, combining reliability and robustness in a slimline chassis. It will make the perfect mobile for work or play.

Top on the list of fantastic Bold features is its effortless handling of all things messaging. The BlackBerry operating system aggregates all your messages and notifications in one easy-to-read inbox. You can manage multiple email accounts all from the Bold 9790, completely hassle-free. You can also keep track of your correspondence over BBM, or BlackBerry Messenger. This fantastic service allows you to contact colleagues or friends with a BlackBerry instantly.

In addition to its great quality keyboard, the Bold 9790 also sports a touchscreen! Perfect for navigating around the attractive BlackBerry 7 interface, and great for browsing the web whilst on the move. Why compromise? You can enjoy both fantastic emailing and a great web experience with the combination touchscreen and hardware keyboard.

The fantastic Orange BlackBerry Bold 9790 is the perfect smartphone for those who want email, but would like the flexibility and freedom of a touchscreen.

This is my first BB, very good indeed, had it for 18mths now. love the qwerty key board, although keys are small but great if, like me, you have long nails! Screen a bit small but takes good photos and easy to use but it seems primitive next to an iphone/Galaxy phone so will be upgrading to a Galaxy but BB is still a very good phone :0)
