Does BlackBerry’s latest torch the competition?

August, 19th - 4:17 pm ET | posted by Wirefly in Cell Phone Models

The all-new BlackBerry Torch 9800 touts a sliding form factor, four-line QWERTY keyboard, a 3.2-inch 480×360 pixel touchscreen, 5-megapixel autofocus camera with flash, 802.11n support, 4GB of on-board storage space along with an included 4G microSD card, and 512MB of RAM. The Torch will be powered by RIM’s all-new BlackBerry OS 6 complete with an updated user interface and highly anticipated WebKit-based browser.

With such an impressive spec sheet, the Torch arguably outshines all BlackBerrys that have come before it. But how does RIM’s new style of BlackBerry fare against the competition? We’ve developed a few side-by-side comparisons, pitting the Torch against popular smartphone picks on the AT&T network. Read on and decide whether you think BlackBerry’s latest can torch the competition.

Get HTC Evo Now or Wait for Samsung Epic?

July, 22nd - 6:02 pm ET | posted by Jeff in Carrier News

Here’s a quick summary of our comparison if you’re deciding whether to jump at getting the HTC Evo now or wit for the Epic 4G, Samsung’s Galaxy S phone for Sprint:

As the first and second (respectively) 4G-capable devices to land on a U.S. carrier, the introduction of the HTC EVO 4G and Samsung Epic 4G mark the beginning of a new generation of wireless devices. Both of these high-end devices are powered by Google’s Android operating system, and are capable of peak download speeds of up to 10 Mbps over Sprint’s next-generation 4G network.

By and large, these devices are highly comparable, although a few key differences do differentiate each device from the other. Which device will you pick, and why? Sound off in the comments.
