I bought this phone, in March 2012. I was using Nokia E6 and was a satisfied user of the same, however the need for BB messenger, email interface and office work, i needed to buy a BB. Since then began my search for a BB. This is one decision that i donot regret.
Pros -
1)OK battery life (especially when compared to any Windows phone or any Android device)-easily lasts through a day with medium-heavy usage (approx 3 hours on calls, 2 hours 3g internet usage, whatsapp-24x7, continuous emails from 2 accounts, etc)
2)Superb touch screen with qwerty keypad. Very responsive screen, great resolution, bright.
3)One of the brightest screens - easy legibility even in sunlight
4)High Resolution Screen - 640 x 480 pixel resolution (high pixel density-makes great text legibility)
5)EMail- By far the best client, nothing manages to come clos to BB's ability to deliver emails
6) Ability to set up upto 10 email accounts - unmatched
7)Great build quality
8)Decent 5 MP Camera which can record HD (720p) videos @ 30fps
9)OS update to 7.1: Performance increases several notches, much more fluid
10)Video recording is good and is very smooth but at 720p
Cons -
1)Apps: Not many apps for 9900 so customization is limited
2)Games: Very few games available so - not much entertainment value
3)Camera: Camera for still photos could have been better
4)No FM
5)No TV Out
6)Expensive
Go for this phone if you are a heavy texter/office-email receiver-sender/social network updater.Typical hierarchy BB 9900>Nokia E6>BB 9790>BB curve series
I dont knonw if we will see more physical QWERTY phones. They do seem like a dying proposition. I swear by a physical QWERTY and nothing can replace that.
