Comparisons Featuring BlackBerry 8800

Short Review

  • The BlackBerry 8800, released in 2007, features a compact design with dimensions of 114 x 66 x 14 mm and a weight of 134g, making it portable yet sturdy.
  • Its 2.5-inch display offers a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels with 65K colors, providing decent clarity for its time, although it lacks HDR support.
  • Performance is driven by a 32-bit Intel XScale PXA272 CPU running at 312 MHz, paired with 64MB of RAM, which may limit multitasking capabilities.
  • The device does not include a camera, lacking both rear and selfie options, which is a significant drawback for modern users.
  • Battery specifications are unspecified, and there is no wireless charging capability.
  • The BlackBerry OS provides a straightforward user experience, though it lacks advanced features found in contemporary operating systems.
  • Connectivity options include Bluetooth 2.0 and miniUSB, but it does not support WiFi or 5G.
  • The absence of stereo speakers and a headphone jack may limit audio experiences.
  • Overall, the BlackBerry 8800 is a basic device focused on communication rather than multimedia.
  • Its design and build quality reflect the era's emphasis on functionality over aesthetics.
