Hello, i'm still on BB bold4 as i'm not really cyked on phones like dat anymore.

But i can't help but ask,. for a novice like me in the phone worlds of the 'android, windows, not 4getin the ios',. wat is the distinctive Feature(s) n attraction from this seperate running systems against my BB's os6?.


i'm not much of a gamer, not into e-books that much, infact as it is my BB does essentially wat i need frm my lil gadget. Tinz like heavy browsin - for news, info, movies, fb, twitter, music, bbm(light user), notepads, stores my documents, edits photos n dats basically it. Plus: with a monthly BIS i use i.e etisalat 3gig monthly plan, i get more affordable access to the net in comparism to other phones. *but i heard mtn co-month is now unlimitedgrin, is this true*


Basically, if someone can open my eyes to all the rave abt androids, windows being the 'in-thing' now, i'ld be happy to learn smiley



​ so​, wat am i missing? Or wat is the main attraction to them? Thanks smiley

What you have been missing is d freedom to personalize your phone the way you want it, you have also been limited to just few apps on your bb, when their are tons of apps on android Os that can spice up your instant messaging life.

So you see my friend blackberry is just about being restricted. But in tuface words, if u want to be free like a bird then android is for you.

Apps?

Well, if datz the main excitement, then, as i'm not really into game playing on phones n all, i prefer my ps2 & 3 grin for that.

For now, the BB Serves my Intense browsing schedule n wt d BIS i'm more versatile n accomodates my Heavy downloads.

The bis working on android will soon get sanctioned (​ so​ i heard) as airtel is really clamping down on tweaks n such.


i remain wt my trusted Bold4 b4 somtin new comes out that really wows me.

#anyway tnx n enjoy. Cheers
