So as you can see from the comparison table above, the Blackberry Pearl 3G shares a lot of similarities with the Blackberry Curve 3G. Some of the key differences between the Pearl 3G vs Curve 4G are the design, camera, and the QWERTY keyboard.

The Samsung Galaxy S resembles many similarities with the iPhone 4, in terms of design. As I told you before, different people is likely to have different taste regarding a phone design. So I’m not going to boast about which one has the better design, is it the Blackberry Torch 9800 or the Samsung Galaxy S.

You already know the Blackberry Torch 9800 specs and features. You also know our Blackberry Torch review and its Torch pros and cons. I am also sure that you’ve read the Blackberry Torch vs iPhone 4 comparison. But what you may have missed is this: the Blackberry Torch vs iPhone 4 Picture Comparison.

In order to complete our Torch vs iPhone 4 comparison; we will now present you with the side-by-side Picture comparison of both phones.

Anyway, what you see below is two beautiful smartphones picture. I think that it is not wise to compare the iPhone 4 vs BB Torch design, since I believe that everyone has their own taste of style.

Some people prefer the iPhone 4 “trademark” style: candybar with huge screen, glass front and back and other stuffs. On the other side, people also find the Blackberry Torch 9800 design is great. It has large screen, the first slider QWERTY, surprisingly well balanced feel, etc. So which one will you choose between the Blackberry Torch vs iPhone 4 design?

The Blackberry Torch 9800 is undoubtedly the best Blackberry device to date, and it also the very first slider Blackberry from RIM. We have given you the specs comparison between the Blackberry Torch vs Bold 9700, but we haven’t actually given you the side-by-side Blackberry Torch vs Bold 9700 picture comparison.

Below are some comparison pictures of Torch vs Bold 9700, courtesy of your good friends at crackberry.com. Right click on the Torch vs Bold 9700 Comparison Picture and choose “view image” to see the large one.

The Blackberry Torch 9800 specs and features includes the Blackberry 6 OS, 624 MHz processor, WebKit browser, etc. Check the link provided to see the full specs.

I think the most interesting part of the Blackberry 6 OS for most people is the introduction of the new Blackberry WebKit browser. What we have here is a browser comparison between the Blackberry WebKit vs iPhone Safari vs Android browser. RIM claimed that the Blackberry WebKit browser gets almost a perfect scores in the top browser test, but how about comparing it with other smartphone browser?

I think we all know that the previous native Blackberry browser is way behind other smartphone’s manufacturer native browser such as the Android Browser and iPhone safari. However, the announcement of the Blackberry 6 OS and its WebKit browser have raised the expectation of the new browser.

Remember that the phone specs can also affect the Browser performance. Enjoy the video:


Now according to that Webkit vs Safari vs Android browser comparison, the WebKit is still behind the Safari and Android browser, in terms of speed. However, like I said before the specs can affect the browser performance too. Compared to iPhone 4 and Samsung Galaxy S captivate processor (1 GHz), the Torch has a slower processor (624 MHz). I am wondering will the result be different if the Blackberry Torch 9800 has 1 GHz processor? What do you think?
