They are also the thinnest BlackBerry smartphones yet, at only 10.5mm.
"The new BlackBerry Bold smartphones and BlackBerry 7 OS are inspired by millions of customers around the world who want the ultimate combination of performance, functionality and style," said Mike Lazaridis, President and Co-CEO, Research In Motion. "These fully-loaded and beautifully crafted smartphones offer a highly refined user experience with blazingly fast performance, a brilliant touch screen and an outstanding typing experience."
These BlackBerry Bold smartphones are built on a new platform featuring a 1.2 GHz processor, Liquid Graphics touch screen, and support for HSPA+ networks.
The BlackBerry Bold 9900 and 9930 smartphones include built-in support for NFC (Near Field Communications) and a built-in compass (magnetometer) to support location-based services and augmented reality.. The new smartphones will also include Wikitude, which overlays contextual information on what the user sees through the smartphone's camera viewfinder.
BlackBerry 7
The BlackBerry Browser has been significantly enhanced in BlackBerry 7. In addition to the general performance gains of Liquid Graphics, which helps deliver faster rendering and seamless panning and zooming, the BlackBerry 7 browser includes a new JIT (just in time) JavaScript compiler to improve the load time speed of web pages. The new browser also includes support for additional HTML5 elements, such as HTML5 Video.
Building upon the Universal Search feature introduced in BlackBerry 6, BlackBerry 7 expands the capability to include voice-activated search.
BlackBerry 7 also integrates BlackBerry Balance, which separates personal content from corporate content on the smartphone.
Availability
The new BlackBerry Bold 9900 and 9930 smartphones are expected to be available from carriers around the world beginning this summer.
