BlackBerry Tour 9630


$200.00 Released July, 2009

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Standard (solid) BlackBerry build quality. Full QWERTY keyboard. Standardized battery - same that can be found on the Storm or Curve 8900.

The Cons:No WiFi. Annoying black border around the display. Poor web browser - not up to other smartphone standards (iPhone, Pre, Android).

The BlackBerry Tour 9630 is a high-end smartphone launching in July 2009 on Verizon and Sprint cellular networks in the US. Unlike its major competitors, the touch-screen Palm Pre and iPhone 3GS, the 9630 features a full physical keyboard below a 480 x 360 pixel display.
