For Blackberry users, the Bold 9900 is amazing and represents a great deal of engineering and research by RIM to produce a phone that is functional, stylish and a joy to use. For users of iPhone and Android however, RIM has yet to make a phone which is as comprehensive or as forward thinking as iOS and Android are. RIM has a ready made consumer pool for its phones; we all love Blackberrys and I personally wouldn't move to another manufacturer. However, RIM fails to develop phones that will make users want to switch from Android or iOS and that's where the money is. It is my feeling that although the Bold 9900 is a huge step forward, anyone switching from iOS or Android will most likely miss some of the features they've come to know and love in their previous platform.
I highly recommend this phone to anyone with an older Blackberry - get it and you won't look back. For iOS and Android users I'd recommend borrowing a friend's phone to test drive it first because you'll either love Blackberry or think it's antiquated and a touch passé.
Received delivery on the 24th of April. The Blackberry box had been put in a large plastic Royal Mail unpadded envelope. I’ve had items worth twenty pounds packaged a lot better than this – if I spend a few hundred pounds I expect a bit more care.
The Royal Mail envelope showed that the item had been sent “guaranteed next day delivery” and the postmark was dated 23rd of April – not the dispatch date of 18th of April as I had been advised. If they had sent it a day earlier my teenage daughter would have had her birthday present on her birthday!
The Blackberry box is scuffed and damaged on one corner - not in pristine condition - and I don’t know if this is due to rough handling by Royal Mail or if it is a returned item. The adhesive tape on the box is not up to the standard you normally find with Blackberry products and the compartments inside the box look as though they have been opened previously.
Would I buy from this supplier again or recommend them to friends? Not a chance.
When asked to rate the supplier I gave an abridged version of the above and received a number of e-mails from A2Zshop asking me to remove my negative comments. They are my comments based on my perception of the service I got so there is no way that I would change them.
By the way, my Daughter thinks the phone is great and recommends it very highly. She feels that the mix of touchscreen and Qwerty keyboard can't be bettered.

初めてのBlackBerry端末となりますが、デザインや大きさ共に大満足です。
格安SIMは試してませんが、今のところ大きな不満はないです。
iPhoneやAndroidなどが多い中においてはBlackBerry存在は希少で、使用しているだけで話題になり注目されます。
ケースが付属されていましたが、デザインを損なうので裸で使用するのが一番だと思います。
大変良い買い物をしました。
