Blackberry Tour 9630 First Impressions

Hey guys, here’s a quick overview and first impressions of the new Blackberry Tour 9630. Sorry about the creepy characterture in the background…didn’t realize it was there while I was filming. Also apologies for the mirrored effect, using my MBP’s iSight camera and I couldn’t figure out how to reverse it =(

Note: Youtube video credit goes to owner/uploader. Thanks!

    get the Sprint ovr verizon you will save more a month, the only thing that bothers me is the back cover it leaves a lot of finger prints!

    Yes, well at least on Verizon you have to. It’s $30 extra a month for the BIS plan and I think $44 for the BES plan.

    Yea, if you’re renewing your contract you get subsidized pricing on the phone.

    one question…when you upgrade do you get discounts on the phone you are going to buy?

    YES! I had an LG Dare and I hated it! I upgraded and I LOVE THIS PHONE!!!

    It really depends on if you like the touch screen or not…If you like the touch screen, go with the palm pre…if you don’t, go with the tour

    tour or Pre.

    pre basically wins but some people prefer blackberries for familiarity

    I had an LG Dare and I really didn’t like it at all, this phone is a huge step up in functionality from the dare.

    Blake- coming from my 8830 I would recommend it if you have an upgrade available. The keyboard is very very similar, just a bit smaller and the keys aren’t so clacky. The whole device overall is much faster and the camera is actually really nice quality.

    like my 8830 keyboard, will not be updating because of this. Digital camera would be nice, but I can buy a killer digital camera for the price of the “upgrade”. I would be interested to know if the upgrade was worth it going from the 8830 to the Tour. Nice video!

    Nah, it has nothing to do with that. I’ve had it on 1XEV since I got the phone, but Global wouldn’t limit it to 1X. Verizon is having problems with their EVDO on newly activated BB’s right now, hopefully it’s fixed soon.

  21. soco352 :

    You might be getting 1X because you’re mobile network is set up as Global…go to options>mobile network> set it to 1XEV and see if that solves your problem

    how do you like typing on the qwerty? how does compare to the enV Touch (if you were able to compare)?

    exact same thing happened to me and verizon said it was the structure of the building I was in witch means they are clueless about it

    I actually noticed the same thing today, I got mine on Sunday, and it was working great. Today however, my data signal was weak. What do you think your going to do? If it continues, is it just a matter of getting a new Tour?
