Comparison: Blackberry Bold 9700 Onyx vs Nokia E72 vs Nokia N97
Our team mate at gadgetwidgets.com have made an interesting comparison between our beloved Blackberry Bold 9700 Onyx against Nokia’s popular E72 and N97. They made the comparison based on the design, look, feel, specs, and features of the three phones. Even though our lads there didn’t conclude clearly which one is the winner, but in my personal opinion I think that the Blackberry Bold 9700 wins in this Bold 9700 vs Nokia E72 vs Nokia N97 comparison.
Anyway, in this post I will reveal and shorten the comparison. Let’s just start it, shall we?
Bold 9700 Onyx vs Nokia E72 vs N97 Design, Look, Feel Comparison
Blackberry Bold 9700 looks like the Curve 8900 or the Tour 9630, but in a smaller, neater and sexier design.This Blackberry is a compact smartphone that should fulfill RIM’s hope of attracting both men and women, and consumers and professionals. Meanwhile, Nokia N97 has a slider-phone design but lacks the WOW effect, and even though the Nokia E72 is pretty solid and slick like the Nokia E71, E72 has matte plastics instead of glossy one. It’s kinda reducing the classy feel.
Bold 9700 Onyx vs Nokia E72 vs N97 Display Comparison
Blackberry Bold 9700 Onyx wins here again. The Bold 9700 has a 2.44-inch display (480×360 pixel). The phone’s display has 245 pixels per inch, making things clear and sharp… Text was easy to read, and images looked crisp with vibrant colors. The Nokia E72 has a pretty nice display, but our lads at gadgetwidgets think that the Bold 9700’s display is better. The Nokia N97 does have many features installed in its display, but the touchscreen’s responsiveness is not as satisfactory as they hope.
Bold 9700 Onyx vs Nokia E72 vs N97 Navigation and QWERTY Keyboard Comparison
They all have QWERTY keyboard. The E72 and Bold 9700 has a great QWERTY keyboard. It is very easy to use. Meanwhile the N97 has an awkward placement of space bar and shift key, making it, umm… awkward. But beside it the N97’s QWERTY works great. It’s a tie, I guess.
Regarding the navigation tool, both Nokia E72, N97 and Bold 9700 use optical trackpad. But the one that surprisingly good is the Bold 9700’s optical trackpad. It is very responsive and you can also adjust its sensitivity to your liking through the Options menu. Now again, the winner is Bold 9700.

All three have A-GPS, OS (E72= Symbian S60v3 | N97 = Symbian S60v5 | Bold 9700 = Blackberry OS 5.0), Wi-Fi, and 3.5mm audio jack.
Conclusion
The overall winner between the comparison between the three is decided by their potential buyer. One thing for sure, if you are looking for a business phone, you should choose either the Nokia E72 or the Blackberry Bold 9700. But if you tend to search for a multimedia phone, the Nokia N97 should do the trick.
But if you ask me which one to choose between Blackberry Bold 9700 Onyx vs Nokia E72 vs Nokia N97; I will definitely choose the Bold 9700 Onyx.
