which is better AND why ?

one is apple and the other is orange. You cannot compare apples to oranges.
Haha.
Eventually Burhan will explain why both of them are good at what they were designed for.

Go for HTC
Windows

the way i look at it...

blackberry ; if your social
iphone ; if your boring

honestly both phones capabilities are crap to me i personally prefer nokia's

the only nice thing about iphone is the screen
and with the blackberry is the bbm and the keyboard

i have a very strange feeling that i have read this thread before... deja vu?

Not even close.
The blackberry is a BUSINESS phone. It was designed for push email and it continues to reign supreme in that arena. That is it's single unique selling feature.

All this BBM and other shit that people are using it for are just after thoughts by RIM to generate more sales.

iPhone is a CONSUMER phone. That means if you love to listen to music, watch video clips, make phone calls, and play some casual games, there is nothing out there that can compete with iPhone. Yes, there are phones (especially some new models) that can do most of the things that iPhone can do - but iPhone does it in a simple and elegant manner.

i agree with you on everything you just said

i know the blackberry is for business, but i barely see people using it for e-mails, i've only known one person in my life that sends e-mails through her blackberry, but anyways the bbm feature is very annoying and very nice

iphone i've had it long enough to realize how boring it was, i took it from my uncle unlocked it cause it was from the us and kept it with me for a week, and it was a nice phone dont get me wrong, the only problem is that its kinda boring

p.s: all phones can make phone calls,sms and play music so whats the use!!
and one more thing to krank both of the cameras on blackberrys and iphones are unbelievably HORRIBLE

Yeah, back in May we had the same thread. I'll just quote my reply from there:

I have Both ..

Blackberry 8900 curve (Zain)

The bad: Worst Browser ,, Worst Facebook ,, Worst Email

The Good: Blackberry messenger which lost everything and its kinda laggy and slow with the new version .. if you are guessing why not get back to the old. I'll tell you why cause most people have the new one and they will hate you

Iphone 3G (Wataniya)

The bad: None

The Good: its Everything ,, Mini computer ,, ipod ,, best real browser ,, email ,, game device ,, i simply love it .. and if you are so into the BBM thingy Iphone haves the WhatsApp program for 99/cents which is exactly like BBM but for iphone

Take a Advice from a User not a talker ..

Good luck

Pleeeeeeease Don't go There ... i had Nokia's for almost my whole life and i always Loved when they say we have the Carl Ziess lenses in our cameras and they have the worst cameras Ever they suck at every thing

Nokia is simply Call SMS thats it Boring Old Man's phone the best thing is there elite collection

Unless you can prove that you are also a business user with serious requirements for push email and you still find iPhone better, your opinion is one-sided.

People are called crackberries for a reason.

that's because phones are supposed to make and receive calls, and not take pictures

The role of phones is changing rapidly.
I can send text messages with my phone!!!

I had both iphone 3G and blackberry bold. I am a business user. I need my phone to make and receive calls, sms, and emails. I don't need it to play games or listen to music. I sold the iphone 3g because:

1. It sucks at email/SMS/text
2. Whatever gaming or Internet browsing I want to do on it, I can do on my ipod touch which is a lot cheaper.
3. As a phone -- a nokia 2600 has better call quality than the iphone. At the same location where my old E66 has perfect call reception, calls to my iphone return with "the mobile phone is switched off or out of the coverage area..."
4. Crippled for no reason - has bluetooth, but can't transfer files; can't even tether using bluetooth.

A lot of Apple fans will jump in now and say "if you jailbreak it you can do _______ ". I don't have to do anything on any of my other phones to get functionality that comes in the device; so how is this something in iphone's favor?

My ipod touch does all the "wow" things that the iphone does, for cheap. if I need to browse on it on the go, I have joikuspot installed on my E66 (which turns it into a wifi hotspot).

The blackberry:

1. Works as a phone.
2. Brilliant at email and SMS text
3. Has a proper, grown up keyboard
4. Is not crippled (as stated above)

Right now, I have a Blackberry Curve (sold the Bold because I didn't need the GPS, and got the Curve for better battery life) and a Nokia E66.

My friend just got a Gemini. It looks kinda' cute. I'm thinking of getting it. So far I'm the only one out of all my friends who hasn't gotten a Blackberry. I don't mind really but I am intrigued by the applications. Are there any girly girl applications? 'Cuz for me, that's what it comes down to. The applications for Gemini or Iphone will help me decide which one to get.

If you are looking for apps, girly or not - Blackberry is not for you.

i've used the n95, n95 8gb, n93, n93i, n80, 5580, n96...etc i can make a very big list and all of the phones i posted above do much better at taking photos than the BB\iphone, except the n80 its not the best but still better!!!


very true

Umm Yea i guess anyways why am i talking in here

Don't join the dark side >.>

Never! I promise! Your death shall not be in vain!
