Is BlackBerry 9900 Bold Touch a replica of iPhone 4?

Many people have been quite impressed by smartphones especially due to their ability to multitask. As much as there are numerous models of smartphones in the market, Apple and Research In Motion are some of the most popular. It is often a Herculean task to tell the difference between Apple’s smartphones and some models of the BlackBerry. Take for example the late entrant BlackBerry 9900 Touch and the iPhone 4. Definitely, there are differences between the two.

One of the significant improvements in the Bold 9900 pertains to the internal specifications which have a bearing on the overall performance of the phones. Given the mounting competition between smartphones, it would only be imperative that the phones incorporate high-end specifications. To begin with, you would appreciate the fast processor incorporated in the Bold 9900. It comes with a single-core 1.2 GHz processor that provides sufficient power for running several intensive applications. This is also complemented by the 768 MB RAM that provides a lot of memory for toggling between functions. Apple’s iPhone 4 however is a bit different from the Bold 9900. It actually comes with a slightly lower power processor at 1 GHz. This would definitely not be much of a disappointment for many people. However, the device comes with a RAM memory of 512 MB. This is the one area where many people find iPhone quite disappointing despite its impressive performance in other aspects.

Another improvement in the BlackBerry 9900 specs is the camera. The smartphone comes with a 5-mega pixels camera that allows for capture of high quality images. To complement the camera’s ability to capture quality images, the device incorporates a wide range of essential tools including LED Flash, autofocus and geo tagging. In addition, it comes with face detection in which case it would focus on the people’s images and detect the faces in this frame. The iPhone 4 falls a bit lower on this particular aspect. Apart from the camera features, you will appreciate the ability of the Bold 9900 camera to capture high definition video images at 720p resolution. In addition to the high picture quality, the phone has touch points in which case you may touch the image where you would like the focus of the camera to be.
