Accessories for the Blackberry Torch
The new BlackBerry Torch has a lot of improvements when compared to the previous BlackBerry models. The 3.2″ HVGA touch screen has a resolution of 480×360, more than enough for most any item to be displayed. Because we are talking about a touch screen, a screen protector is a very useful purchase, not only for safeguarding the display area against dirt and greasy fingerprints, but also for providing a shield against bright light to make the display more readable when outdoors. The lithium-ion battery is both removable and rechargeable, and has an excellent standby life of about two weeks, and an active/talk life of just less than six hours, a reasonable period before you have to recharge the phone.
If you’re not used to using a touch screen, you can always just slide out the QWERTY keyboard, which is comfortable to use. Messaging and texting, the primary function of all Blackberry phones, is just so much easier with a full-fledged keyboard. A sturdy mechanism holds the keyboard tightly in its storage position when not in use. The chrome exterior is both gorgeous and elegant, especially when juxtaposed against the dark display screen — but, be sure to get a case to protect the chrome finish.
The operating system, upgraded to version 6.0, adds a lot to a BlackBerry that were not possible before. One feature, activated with the swipe of a finger, is the capability to host multiple screens on the system’s Home Page. You can assign each screen a different application. “Social Feeds” is one of those applications, one that makes you wonder why no one thought of this idea before — the information from each and every one of a Torch owner’s social networks can be displayed in one interface. The operating system allows more document type to be viewable on screen, the OS supports more email providers than before.
The Blackberry Torch connects via both 3G and Wi-Fi, depending on which is the more powerful connection. If 3G is strong, and Wi-Fi is weak, then 3G is used for a stronger, more persistent, connection. When the connection is via Wi-Fi, faster connection speeds are enabled. This allows the Torch to display complete version of web pages, and it also lets you bookmark your favorite pages online. Besides faster loading of web pages, the also has Bluetooth capability, and supports several types of flash media.
The BlackBerry Torch has a 5-megapixel camera, with 2-times digital zoom, flash exposure, auto-focus, and image stabilization — it’s almost like you get a mini-digital-camera with your phone. Editing tools for the photos you take are built into the OS; you can also record and playback video with the camera. Users can listen to all of their favorite tracks by plugging in a pair of headphones. All those features require memory, and you can install 32 GB worth into the Blackberry Torch. Other features that are also interesting and deserve mention are the FM radio and the amazing Blackberry GPS system.
