Blackberry Torch Is Rim's First Proper Touchscreen Phone

The application of the touch screen technology within the mobile phones is something that is growing extensively so much so that even the business phones of today are employed in this new technology. BlackBerry is one of the well-known companies that makes high-end business phones and there also not an exception to the inclusion of the touch screen technology into their mobile phones. The BlackBerry Torch will be the first on proper touch screen phone from the BlackBerry range and it promises to be exciting as is the case with every other BlackBerry phone.

The BlackBerry Torch will be using a 3.2 inch touch screen display, which is going to display up to 16 million colours without trouble. This vast amount of colours will be displayed in a resolution of 360 x 480 pixels, which is going to be quite sufficient for handling all the variety within the colours. Even though the BlackBerry Torch will be using a touch screen, it will still not be without the legendary BlackBerry features that have made the phone extremely popular. These include the options like the optical trackpad and the full QWERTY keyboard.

The internal memory of the BlackBerry Torch is one of the strong points of the phone. It is rated at 4 GB, which is unusual for a business phone. Something that is going to be even more unusual is the presence of external memory card support. Further, there will be a complimentary memory card that is going to be coming with the phone. It is a rare phenomenon in the business phone industry, but the 4 GB memory card will be sufficient for undertaking a number of entertainment files with the phone.

The BlackBerry Torch seems to be having a decent enough camera in terms of megapixel count. However, it is only when you take photos that you will realise that this is one of the best cameras in any phone, let alone the business phone. The five megapixel camera is going to be assisted by the presence of a lot of features for this need. There is the LED flash, continuous autofocus, image stabilisation and the video recording option are present in the camera. The videos will be recorded in the QVGA resolution format at a frame rate of 24 frames per second. The BlackBerry Torch will be using a 624 MHz processor and the BlackBerry OS 6.0 is the operating system that is present in the BlackBerry Torch.

This is the operating system that will be bringing the multitasking option to the BlackBerry phones, which is something that many would have been eagerly expecting. The processor can easily handle the number of applications that are present in the phone by default and also the applications that you will be able to download from the Internet using the 3G or Wi-Fi option on the phone. The BlackBerry Torch is available in the United Kingdom for a few months now and it will retail for a price of around £ 25 per month.
