BlackBerry 9700 Review and Specifications

RIM announced Blackberry 9700 I don’t have a sexy codename for this BlackBerry to attach to the model number, our very same ninja is back again with a list of specifications for this unseen and unnamed device that will launch as the BlackBerry 9700. I am presenting you some specs of Blackberry 9700:

• Quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE
• UMTS/HSDPA
• 480×360 resolution display
• Wi-Fi a,b,g
• OS 5.0
• QWERTY keyboard
• 3.2 megapixel AF camera
• Bluetooth

Boy Genius Report said that "We know, we know, specs on paper are one thing — we’re working on getting more information, don’t worry."

Some blogs loke blackberrycool.com also put up a story saying the BlackBerry 9700 is the BlackBerry Onyx. but actually the specs for the Onyx, known as the 9020.

BlackBerry Cool is guessing that CrackBerry is using an outdated device number and the 9700 is just the BlackBerry Onyx, formerly known as the 9020. Here are our arguments:

• RIM has a history of changing device numbers before release. This is nothing new.
• The specs of the 9700 are the same as the “9020″
• Also, we’ve been getting a lot of emails from tipsters saying so. Here is a quote from one source: “I have seen, touched, and used the Onyx and in the About screen it says 9700. It looks like the 9020 screenshots that are going around and it has a Bold-like back.”
  

Let’s wait for the release and see if BlackBerry Cool is right. It’s possible that the 9700 could be a device with the same specs as the 9020 with a slider or a touchscreen, but the truth is always much simpler.
