Ini Bedanya BlackBerry 9220 Dibanding Gemini 8520

Research In Motion (RIM) telah meluncurkan BlackBerry Curve 9220 di Indonesia pada Selasa (24/4/2012).

Menurut Product Manager RIM Indonesia, Ardo Fadhola, yang ditemui saat peluncurannya hari ini di Jakarta, BlackBerry 9220 merupakan penerus BlackBerry Curve 8520 (Gemini) yang juga hanya mendukung 2G.

Sebagai penerus dari BlackBerry Gemini, Curve 9220 memiliki beberapa kelebihan dari pendahulunya tersebut, antara lain:
1. Harga awal lebih terjangkau
RIM mematok harga relatif terjangkau untuk Davis, yakni Rp 1.999.000. Menurut Product Manager RIM Indonesia Ardo Fardhola, ini adalah harga awal termurah untuk perangkat BlackBerry.

Soal harga dirasa efektif untuk membujuk masyarakat yang sebelumnya menggunakan feature phone agar beralih ke smartphone.

2. Adanya tombol BlackBerry Messenger khusus
Terdapat BBM key di sisi kiri Curve 9220 yang langsung membawa pengguna ke layanan BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) dengan sekali pencet.

3. Terdapat fitur Radio FM
"BBM key dan radio FM merupakan fitur yang baru digunakan RIM, dan pertama kali ada di BlackBerry Curve 9220," jelas Ardo.

4. BlackBerry OS 7.1
BlackBerry Davis menggunakan sistem operasi terkini BlackBerry OS 7,1. Jika smartphone BlackBerry lain ingin menggunakan sistem operasi tersebut, maka harus melakukan upgrade.

5. Kapasitas baterai yang lebih besar
Davis memiliki daya tahan baterai paling tinggi dibandingkan keluarga Curve yang lain. Kapasitasnya 1.450 mAh, sedangkan Curve sebelumnya 1.150 mAh.

Pihak RIM mengklaim, baterai Davis bisa bertahan hingga 28 jam untuk memutar musik dan 7 jam untuk bicara.

6. Memori
Memori internal yang lebih besar sebesar 512 MB, di Gemini hanya 128 MB.

Meski hanya mengusung teknologi 2G, RIM tetap percaya diri menjual BlackBerry Davis.

Sebab, menurut penelitian yang dilakukan di beberapa kota di Indonesia, ponsel ini sudah cukup mengakomodasi kebutuhan anak muda Indonesia yang lebih banyak mengakses jejaring sosial dan BBM.

Curve 9220 yang mempunyai sebutan BlackBery Davis ini akan tersedia di pasaran Indonesia mulai Rabu (25/4/2012) dan dibanderol seharga Rp 1.999.000.

BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 is here

I’m excited to announce that the BlackBerry® PlayBook™ OS 2.0 software update officially launched worldwide today. In October, I spoke to you about some of the key features you could expect with the release of BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0. Today, I’m proud to tell you – we’ve delivered them.


As you will see, we’ve made updates and enhancements to some of the things you’ve told us you like the most. We’ve also brought you some new, highly anticipated features that you’ll find only on BlackBerry PlayBook tablet. Let me tell you about my favorite BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 features:

All-New Built-In Functionality

I have to say, the features I’m most excited about with this launch are built-in email, calendar and contacts. Unique to BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0, you can now quickly manage all of your email accounts with a unified inbox, manage your schedule with new features like a People View of your day (which lets you quickly see everyone who is on your agenda for that day), and view your contacts as a social hub that contains information from popular social networks including Facebook®, Twitter®, and LinkedIn®.

Social Integration in Calendar

The built in calendar is designed to pull in the information that matters to you from your social networks and make it available where and when you need it. Contact cards are dynamically populated with the latest real-time information from your Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn accounts to create a consolidated view of your contacts most recent updates.

BlackBerry Bridge

Another feature I’m excited for you to try is the new BlackBerry Bridge functionality that allows you to use your BlackBerry smartphone as a remote control for your PlayBook. I’ve used this feature both for presentations in the office, and at home with my PlayBook tablet connected to my television.

Open On

Although it’s hard to choose only four, I will say that Open On definitely makes my list of favorite BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 features. This convenient functionality allows you to open your documents, photos and links from your BlackBerry smartphone onto your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet with one click. I often use Open On to review documents (PowerPoint, Word, and PDF) that people send me on my BlackBerry smartphone. It’s a great way to combine the convenience of my BlackBerry® Bold™ 9900 and the big screen on my PlayBook tablet.
These are just a few of the reasons I’m excited about today’s launch, and they’re just some of the great features that PlayBook OS 2.0 has to offer. Following the 2012 Consumer Electronics show, we heard a lot of great feedback on PlayBook OS 2.0 with reviews from Team BlackBerry. I’d love to hear what you think now that the software update has officially launched.
This post on the BlackBerry Help blog will provide more information about how to get started with your new PlayBook OS 2.0 update.
