BlackBerry Bold 9790
BlackBerry Bold 9790 is a small device – it measures 110 x 60 x 11.4 mm and weighs just 107 grams. The phone feels definitely slimmer and lighter than its predecessors. There is a 2.45 inch screen with a resolution of 480 x 360 pixels. Below the display, we have four buttons and a touch sensitive trackpad at the center.

On the right side of the phone there is a volume rocker and a convenience key. On the left, there is only a headphone jack, while at the bottom – the power button. BlackBerry Bold 9790 has a silver line around the sides and a matter back cover. The processor inside the hood is a Marvel Tavor clocked at 1.1 GHz supported by 768 MB of RAM. The phone includes a back side camera – 5 MP with autofocus, LED flash and geo-tagging. The Bold 9790 comes with 8Gb of storage and a microSD slot.
