Price tag is not attractive. However, it was launched in India during Independence day festive week. So I got it at a great discount at INR27,822 ($605) after a 5% BB discount, 5% shopkeeper’s discount and INR1,500 through my credit card. I will pay it out in six EMIs with 0% interest.
Pros:
Executes commands pretty fast
Touch screen is very responsive
Widely spread keypad makes typing quite comfortable
Front side of phone gives an expensive look
Already built in applications let you use much the phone space
Thin form factor
Cons:
Back side looks really ugly with rubber and shining plastic, instead of leather finish present in Bold 3
Camera quality is not so great, lacks auto-focus and sharpness and the correct pick
Lacks a front facing camera, so no video calling this time as well
Price tag is not justified given the features and what other competitors are offering
I would not compare this blackberry to iPhone4 or a high-end Android as each of them serves different purpose. As a business user and requiring a keypad for fifty odd emails that I send on a daily basis, I still consider this phone as the best available option. However, if my texting is not that of priority and can forego my BBM chats with friends, I would rather drop this phone from my buying list.

Why have RIM put a pathetic EDoF camera on the Bold 9900 ? (there flagship phone).
BIG mistake RIM !
RIM need to pull up there socks and get there act together. Wake up ! Or you will get left behind.

it is a good phone but battery life is bad if you are on gps or 3g or surfing. 3g practically drains it out in 2 hrs. even on 2g i am sufferring with the battery life. it drains in 12 hrs

after handling the handset, i can say im very happy with the styling :) seem they took a cue from the blackberry 9000, which many agree is the best looking bb handset so far
it still cant compare to the functionality of android or the iphone, but its good for those blackberry fanatics... when there not roiting that is :P

A cheap EDoF cam in a "flagman". RIM, you killed my hope again. Will you give a mag. glass for free for all 9900 customers to let them shot a docs & biz cards as they used with 97xx?
The modern business phone is useless without an auto-focus camera.
