Blackberry 9900 is by far a better device, if comparing with the 9320. You will surely get better user experience from the 9900.

I was told that bold 5 doesn't last and that it's not strong.

BTW: Are you using the phone?

I used to use a 9900. I used it for 2 years, no issues @ all with it. Then sold it when bbm became cross-platform.

I currently use Curve 7. Yes. It has long battery life. But it sucks bitterly with display. I use my phone to browse a lot and it's pain to endure poor quality display when surfing the Web. That's why I'm going to sell it, add money on top and buy bold 5.

@OP, I'll advice you to go for bold 5. Make sure you buy it new or at least buy new batteries for it. That's my plan, cos I heard it's not as battery friendly as curve 7. But what's the use of long life battery on a poor quality.

i use a curve 7 and i recommend it, bold 5 battery is crap, even the new one, curve 7 is OS 7.1 out of the box which is the highest for the old bb series, mark my words, the battery of the bold 5 will piss u off, except of course u want to have more than one battery,i have just one battery for my curve 7, EDGE takes me thru d day. 3G drains d battery faster so it wont last all day

Battery strength 9900 - 1230 mah
Battery strength 9320 - 1450 mah

Not a lot of difference. Use the 9900 on Edge and download application resource monitor. You will have a much better all rounded experience with the 9900.

The 9900 is easily upgradeable to OS7.1, the screen is larger and sharper on a 9900, user experience is far better on a 9900 etc etc etc
The 9320 is like a daewoo matiz and the 9900 a Mercedes c class.

That's cool. But folks are telling me that bold 5 don't last. And that I should stay away from it.
