I loved this phone so much in 2010. I cracked mine in the car door, and I bought another. Then I sold it in Bolivia for $300 after I used it for 2 years.
@coldshot12 ... it should work ... most chargers can be plugged from a 100 to a 240 v outlet .... you may need an adapter couse the holes on the outlets might be different..
@avaldex321 Because not much compares to it... How many companies can say they have a phone out on the market that still offers full support 3 years later?
@vishumzn of course he has to return them, they're only meant for reviewing, when John's done with a phone, it gets sent back and another reviewer gets his hands on it
I hope you compare this to the iphone 4 side by side. Not sure which one to get. Orange UK will be getting the Torch mid September so I have a while to decide yet.
It was a nice looking phone for RIM.. but compared to the other smart phones out there they were lacking in some areas.. Not all.. but some key areas..
RIM have really impressed me with this phone ! Os 6 runs pretty good, the led light and constant email, Facebook etc newsfeed just make it a win . Only down fall is the browser and app store , I give it a 7 out of 10!
@ashwinshankar The pouch doesn't come with the phone, unlike with previous Blackberry devices, but it's available for purchase. You can search amazon and ebay for "blackberry torch leather pocket." There are also invisible full body sheilds that are supposed to protect the entire body from scratches. :-)
i dont know if it counts as a compliment, but you are the most fun to listen to! i usually almost fall asleep when i watch videos about phones, and this was quite fun :) oh, can someone help me? i dont know which to buy, bb torch or htc desire!! anyone?
hey john can you please answer this question ??? would you recommend a sony xperia x10 or an blackberry torch or a windows phone 7 for a 14 year old who is a frequent gamer , but constantly busy and always listens to music .Thanks a bunch man because i need help deciding if i want android 2.1 for the xperia update , also if a blackberry would work because i like to text alot or windows phone 7 since im getting a xbox 360 with live for the holidays . i really hope you answer my question :)
@syyun0406 =[ i knoww. i've actually been thinking about itt. it was a birthday presentt, i couldn't say anything. but i just found out i still have time to return it, but i like it already? i'm still debating over whether i should get the 9810 or not since it's actually the same phone, just a little bit different ?
i wanted to ask question , where is charger i didnt see it ,and other thing am gonna buy it form USA and use it in egypt ,does it have charger that work with 220 volt or what?
Hi am getting this phone i was wondering does it have a cord to inport music & videos & pictures into your computer i am not sure if it is this phone but do all blackberries come with the cord? and does it need a memory card to do the videos & the pictures cause my dad had an iphone which is a 2 sim and it need a memory card to do the music & videos :D
I have had a chance to setup a few at work and I have to say I'm an iPhone user but I really really like this phone.. The best BB they have put out in a long time. I wouldn't give up my iPhone but if I had to I would look at this for sure
I have been waiting for Jon's review I want to see this.
Great job at geting back in business jon and good luck on your new life.
I've been waiting on this one John!
I had this phone for quite sometime and it was a great phone for what it was back in it’s time..
John, what percentage of items that you review do you get to keep? Also, are these paid out of your own pocket?
I loved this phone so much in 2010. I cracked mine in the car door, and I bought another. Then I sold it in Bolivia for $300 after I used it for 2 years.
Would you recommend getting this over the Bold 9700? I'm mainly worried about the torch breaking easier than the bold.
Do you get to keep the things companies send you for unboxing, or do you have to send them right back?
@coldshot12 ... it should work ... most chargers can be plugged from a 100 to a 240 v outlet .... you may need an adapter couse the holes on the outlets might be different..
Another well done Jon!
@avaldex321 Because not much compares to it... How many companies can say they have a phone out on the market that still offers full support 3 years later?
glad to have u back!!!
Haha i love your unboxings, Jon!
Thanks Jon your the absolute best i ordered my torch. Im looking forward to your upcoming videos
Welcome back, Jone! And that big knife

Would like to see the review of the phone to see what's new on it.
the blackberry tour was the best phone that i ever had
do u no if ur on wifi it can still use up data??
I'm surprised you didn't mention the At&t It Can Wait slogan like you usually do.
@97Smosh you should get the torch 9810 instead of the 9800.
@vishumzn of course he has to return them, they're only meant for reviewing, when John's done with a phone, it gets sent back and another reviewer gets his hands on it
@02kyla They have a version of the 9800 in black and it is a very great model. I would highly recommend the Torch 9800.
Love how it was already opened, when he opened it.
Nice video but whats better the iPhone 4 or the Blackberry torch?
Blackberry Torch or Blackberry Bold 9780? I think I should be getting one today but have no idea which to choose!
Jon what camera did you use? The quality seems to be much worse than normal ;(
I hope you compare this to the iphone 4 side by side. Not sure which one to get. Orange UK will be getting the Torch mid September so I have a while to decide yet.
@nasshit it works same as a regular size disc,just put it correctly
It was a nice looking phone for RIM.. but compared to the other smart phones out there they were lacking in some areas.. Not all.. but some key areas..
so you get to keep the review phones or you have to return 'em?
@iNytrix I live in Canada too but I can get the Blackberry torch for $0. How are you paying $120? What carrier are you with?
when u show something to the camera keep it there for a few seconds for the camera to focus other wise it all blur
you dont have see it urlyer but the blackberry box is already open ?
@gamecentre07 no it isn't like the iPhone 4.. The blackberry torch only has a 5 MP camera at the back
RIM have really impressed me with this phone ! Os 6 runs pretty good, the led light and constant email, Facebook etc newsfeed just make it a win . Only down fall is the browser and app store , I give it a 7 out of 10!
Deciding between this and a bold 9700. Thoughts?
HP Veer or BlackBerry Torch? $99 or $0.01? The Torch seems more sexier.
@ashwinshankar The pouch doesn't come with the phone, unlike with previous Blackberry devices, but it's available for purchase. You can search amazon and ebay for "blackberry torch leather pocket." There are also invisible full body sheilds that are supposed to protect the entire body from scratches. :-)
"The new blackberry os 6" when times were simple

Hey Jon, I was wondering should I get the samsung captivate or the blackberry torch?

i dont know if it counts as a compliment, but you are the most fun to listen to! i usually almost fall asleep when i watch videos about phones, and this was quite fun :)
oh, can someone help me? i dont know which to buy, bb torch or htc desire!! anyone?
whats the difference between the 9800 n the 9810 ? is there a big difference?
You did not remove the plastic @ 4:27
(just saying)
Do you pay for all these phones? Or do the companies give you them for free?
"TXTING & DRIVING... IT CAN WAIT" the driving or the texting?
hey john can you please answer this question ??? would you recommend a sony xperia x10 or an blackberry torch or a windows phone 7 for a 14 year old who is a frequent gamer , but constantly busy and always listens to music .Thanks a bunch man because i need help deciding if i want android 2.1 for the xperia update , also if a blackberry would work because i like to text alot or windows phone 7 since im getting a xbox 360 with live for the holidays . i really hope you answer my question :)
Do you have to have the camera zoomed in so much? It's not like we're blind..
Nice video Jon! Its an interesting design, hopefully Verizon will get one soon.

If I unlock the blackberry torch, do I still require to pay for the data plan every month??? please help thank you
Do you get to keep everything you review?

I have the 9810 which I personally think is a slight upgrade from the 9800, but better than 9860 because of its physical keyboard. Awesome video :D
@monique2thck sure is!
I live over seas... is this phone unlocked? Also how much is it with out a plan?
this reason i like the blackberry torch compared to the bold is that the screen is bigger for web browsing and stuff :)
is it in the uk yet?

Jon is back!
Big old knife is back!
So my Samsung Captivate speaker stopped working today, And i think i may get this phone if I can't get my Samsung fixed :(
What's the difference betweend Blackberry, Android en iPhones (other than the OS)?
i'm trying to get new housing for the torch 9300 if i order 9800 will it fit?
But will it blend?
Blackberry Torch or wait for the iphone 5?
hey if the phone comes with a mini disc in the box how do u use it or where do u put it is there any mini disc rom or something ???
@charmeurify it may be ur carrrier, or sometimes just you downloaded too many things or are running way to many apps at once.
@monique2thck yes. yes it is :D
@lolmoper Blackberries are phones mainly for emails and texting and such.
@xFifaClips Thanks man, Whats the name of the app?
I have had a chance to setup a few at work and I have to say I'm an iPhone user but I really really like this phone.. The best BB they have put out in a long time. I wouldn't give up my iPhone but if I had to I would look at this for sure
