Reasons Why Buying A Blackberry Makes More Sense Than A Iphone

By Jerry Le Bon

iPhones without a doubt get the most media coverage of all the latest generation 'smartphones' but that doesn't mean it's better than the rest. This article looks at the iphone's main competitor the Blackberry and discusses why it's a better phone.

1. Security - The Blackberry is the most secure phone on the market and the iphone cannot compete. There have been numerous successful attempts to hack into its systems and this has caused iphone users all over the world to lose numerous files and data.

The Blackberry on the other hand has never had any problems with it's security. It's also used by some leader political figures including Gordon Brown and and Nicolas Sarkozy.

2. Typing - The Blackberry benefits from a full QWERTY keyboard which makes it very easy to type at a decent rate. The iphone has a touch screen keyboard which for people with large fingers or for those who are quite clumsy makes typing very hard.

3. Number of Network Providers - The Blackberry is available on every network which has led to lower prices for every increasing call and text packages. Apple only agreed to let the iphone be sold by a couple of network operators who then have no reason to reduce their prices.

4. Picture Messages - Not a lot of people know this but iphones cannot actually send picture messages. Apple obviously deemed it unnecessary which seems like a big oversight to me. It is possible to send pictures via email but it's impossible to send to someone who doesn't have a smartphone.

5. Email - One of the greatest advancements that smartphones have made is the ability to have email sent directly to your mobile phone. Blackberry's have really mastered this as you get email sent immediately to your phone as soon as it is sent to your email accounts. Other mobile phones such as the iphone take longer to synchronise with your email account and it can be a chore to log in to see your emails.
