HELP - BB Model Numbers & Difference Between Bold 6 And Bold 5 by LTaiye(m): 11:44pm On Jul 02, 2012
Could anyone please help me:

Every Blackberry has a model number as you all know even though most people refer to them in terms of their nicknames. Could anyone kindly match the Model numbers to their nicknames for me. Of particularly interest are the numbers for Bold 5 & Bold 6.

I am about to bring a number of phones to Naija, but there is just too much confusion with the model numbers even with some of my more informed friends. Please only reply if you're sure so as not to add more confusion. Are the numbers below rightly matched to their NNs, and what are the missing ones? Thanks you very much in advance. God bless you all.

Bold 1 - ?

Bold 2 - 9700

Bold 3 - 9780

Bold 4 - 9900

Bold 5 - 9930

Bold 6 - 9790


Curve 1 - ?

Curve 2 - 8520

Curve 3 - 9300

Curve 3G - 9330

Curve 4 - 9360

Many thanks for your contributions and advise. Really appreciated.

**PLEASE CLARIFY TOUCH 3(Two conflicting answers):


- Is Touch 3 9830 or 9860?

If it is 9830, then what is 9860?


Also could anyone please tell me if the ones below have been labelled correctly

Storm 9500 Storm 1

Storm 9520 Storm 2


At the moment I have a number of a couple of Storm 9500 (nearly new and unlocked) How much are these going for.

Once more, thank you very much for your contributions.

I have been selling high-tech phones for three years on NL and I must tell you that the secret of a successful sales is knowing what your propective buyers want (models in demand), with that done your experience will be a roller coaster.

From your post above you already have few pieces of 9500,my advice is sell them off in the US and replace them with 8520 or 9300 as the demand for storms is very poor.
Below are list of phones in demand:
Curve2 -8520
Bold2 - 9700
Bold3. - 9300
Bold4 - 9780
Bold5. - 9900
Bold6. - 9860
Torch1 - 9800
Torch2 - 9810
Curve4 - 9360
Curve5 - 9380

If your prices for the above is good then you have a big chance.
