Research in Motion has been trying to regain its momentum by releasing new devices which makes use of its new operating system. So comes the BlackBerry 7OS and then the Bold 9900 series with ists cousin the 9930 series which both received quite an attention from consumers. These smartphones though are just not cool and flashy enough for executives who want to use it while on the golf course. Enter to the picture Porsche Design and the BlackBerry P’9981 for around $2,300.

The P’9981 has rolled out in the United Kingdom and the Middle East and is expected to be launched in the United States this Spring.

Hardware

The collaboration between RIM and Porsch Design resulted to the production of the BlackBerry P’9881. This targets competitions like the Motorola Aura, Vertu phones, or Nokia Oro which are also over the two grand mark. And with Porsche Design we know that only the finest materials were used.

The cost does not cover much on the function aspects but more on the eye candy aspect. The P’9881 was excellently crafted. The body of the phone is forged from stainless steel except for the plastic used on its bottom to avoid interference on its antenna. The cover of the battery is wrapped in leather while the keyboard is fashioned from metal plus glass for the navigation buttons. But when you look at it, there is a big resemblance to the 9900.

The brain of the Posrche Design phone is a 1.2GHz MSM8655 Qualcomm CPU with a RAM of 768 MB. The touch screen is good enough at 2.8 inches with a 286 ppi pixel density. It has a 5 megapixel camera that is capable of capturing HD video and works well with its LED flash. The keyboard though is the best feature of this phone.

Software

No doubt that the new BlackBerry 7.0 OS gives the flashy hardware a good tandem. One thing to point our spotlight to is the custom theme for the BlackBerry P’9981. The new theme is said to be exclusive for the high end phone.

Conclusion

The Posrche Design BlackBerry P’9981 will not change how we live but it is a good smartphone for someone who can afford it and is looking for a flashy BlackBerry. For normal beings, we see this phone as a Bold 9900 wearing a fancy costume.

The Nokia 700 also comes with a 5 megapixel camera with face detection, geo tagging, and LED flash; 2gig of inbuilt storage which you can expand with a microSD; FM radio; Bluetooth and WiFi functions; proximity sensor; and accelerometer.

Design

The Nokia 700 will be a supermini if it is car at 110×50.7×9.7 mm in dimension and weighing only 96 grams. According to the phonemaker, this is among their greenest phone so far. The internals are crafted from recycled materials and they used bio-based paint to give the Nokia 700 its nice finish. \

The body of this mobile phone is a good blend of plastic and metal components. It is pretty small but it does not feel too delicate or too plasticky. You might want a bigger screen to come with it though but somehow the ClearBlack technology of Nokia makes looking at the small screen hassle free even outdoors. The keys below the screen do not protrude as much as you expect too but they can still be pressed easily. The same is true for the rest of the buttons like the volume rocker and the lock key.

User Interface

The Symbian Belle is perfect for the functionality the Nokia 700 wants to have. The Belle got a makeover and we can say the polished features like its native apps, menu, and homescreen serve it well. It ticks good, very fluid, and efficient.

Here’s a nice video to give you a peek:

Conclusion

The Nokia 700 is a good phone rolling off the production line of Nokia. It is a good alternative if you do not have the budget for an Android phone. It can be at par in beauty and will not lag much in terms of function.
