10 Reasons To Purchase A Blackberry Rather Than An Iphone

Smart phones have taken over the mobile market in recent years and none more so than the iphone and Blackberry. The debate about which is better continues to rage with the iphone more popular with youngsters and the Blackberry more popular with business users. This article why the Blackberry is the best choice for almost everyone.

1. The Blackberry as a 3.2 megapixel camera which is capable of taking images that are off the same standard as a standalone camera. It's far superior to any other smartphone.

2. The Blackberry has a removable battery so it is possible to take fully charged spares with you on long trips. This isn't possible with the iphone.

3. The standard headphones are good quality but if you do wish to replace them you can do so through a standard a 3.5mm Stereo input which means you have the choice of a huge range of headphones.

4. The screen of the Blackberry is far superior to that of the iphone. It is estimated to have 12.5 percent more picture element that the iphone and also has a more traditional screen ratio of 4:3

5. It's possible to use a Blackbbery as a USB dongle and receive a internet connection through it. The Apple iphone doesn't allow this feature at the moment but I believe it's looking into it.

6. The Blackberry's are built on the Microsoft Windows platform so are much more compatible with the files found on most people's computers. The iphone is built on the Mac operating system so are not as secure as the Blackberry.

7. Although the iphone comes with a bigger memory as standard, it's possible to insert a 16GB microSD card to bring the Blackberry in line with it's competitors.

8. The Blackberry is far better with dealing with emails. It automatically connects with the internet servers whilst the iphone has to wait for emails to be 'pushed' to it.

9. The iphone doesn't allow users to send picture messages via SMS. It is of course possible on the Blackberry!

10. The QWERTY keyboard that comes with all Blackberry's make it very easy for new users to pick up the skills required to type quickly. The touchscreen pad on the iphone is quite difficult, particularly for older users to understand.
