BlackBerry Bold Touch 9330 Gets A Quick Hands On Action

Previously known as Dakota or Montana, the BlackBerry Bold Touch 9330 is just one of RIM's new lineup of phones scheduled to be released this year and now the touch bar gets some hands-on love and the initial impressions are not what you would call negative.

The folks over at Boy Genius Report have got their lucky hands on the Bold Touch 9330 and according to them the phone looks much better in person, than on the product renders, that leaked a while ago. Along with the good looks; the Bond Touch 9300 is reported to be very well-built, too.
Here are some photos of the early production unti. Notice the carbon back battery cover, which seems more and more likely to replace the faux leather one RIM has been using so far.



The 2.8-inch touchscreen is responsive and reportedly compliments nicely the well-proven BlackBerry keyboard. Unfortunately, there is no word on what performance the 1.2GHz Qualcomm CPU pumps out on the new BlackBerry OS 6.1, but we are ready to bet it's not a turtle.
The BlackBerry Bold Touch is headed for a June-July release, with prices and availability likely to be announced at the BlackBerry World event on 1 May 2011.
