BBM coming to Android and iOS

May 20, 2013 8:43 pm | Leave a Comment - Posted by

BlackBerry Messenger is known for its security and exclusivity. However, BlackBerry has finally decided to launch it on other smartphone OS – do you think that’s good or bad?

Personally, I think it’s awesome! Then again, had I known I would not buy a BlackBerry. I own a BlackBerry but the only reason I actually like it is because of the image quality, the led light and BBM (and I don’t really like using BBM as I used to only use it for contacting my boyfriend)

It’s a good news for others who haven’t experienced BBM though, and I’m looking forward what else BlackBerry will offer!

WeChat, you chat!

Sorry for the lame title. Anyway, most of you guys have probably signed up for this other message/chat service called WeChat. Before I only saw this as ad on most of the applications I have on my Android phone, to the point that I found it already annoying – but lately, it’s become the “trend” as they released a commercial locally here in Philippines.

Like Viber, Kakaotalk, Kik, Skype, Yahoo messenger, BBM and many more - WeChat is an application that helps you communicate with your friends and family through your wifi or mobile internet as if you were just sending SMS to each other. There are also some perks, voice talk, stickers and the likes.

You can also get it for free and it’s available at Playstore – most of all it’s cross platform! Blackberry, iOS and Windows can also run this application. And that’s why WeChat is awesome.

However, if you’re into cutesy things and KPOP I still prefer Kakaotalk.

Microsoft Surface Tablet

June 20, 2012 7:10 pm | Leave a Comment - Posted by

Just yesterday,  Microsoft unveiled their first ever tablet which they call the Microsoft Surface Tablet. According to tech pros, it looks really sleek and something that can be compared to iPad however, it was also said that it will be on wifi only at the moment. Nevertheless, here are the specs. It comes in two versions.

Windows RT, light weight but with kick-ass specs.

  • 676g
  • 9.33 mm thick
  • 10.6″ ClearType HD DIsplay
  • 31.5 Wh battery
  • microSD, USB 2.0, Micro HD Video
  • Office Home & Student 2013 RT, Touch Cover, Type Cover
  • 32 GB, 64 GB

 

 

Windows 8 Pro, almost same specs with Windows RT but a bit more “pro feel”

  • 903 g
  • 13.5 mm thick
  • 10.6″ ClearType Full HD Display
  • 42 Wh battery
  • microSDXC, USB 3.0, Mini DisplayPort Video,
  • Touch Cover, Type Cover, Pen with Palm Block
  • 64 GB, 128 GB

 

Maybe after all, Windows/Microsoft stand a change against Android, Blackberry and Apple. My only theory is, they won’t succeed that quick as developers of apps and games are still glued to the said other two competitors.

Viber for Blackberry, finally!

May 10, 2012 5:13 pm | 1 Comment - Posted by

To tell you the truth, I don’t use this application much on my Android and iOS devices. But then again I know many use it for its features that one will probably make use of in many ways especially to save – free calls and sms. In short, it’s Kik Messenger and Skype combined!

Viber for Blackberry

Viber lets you send text and photo messages, anywhere in the world (Free calls coming soon as well). All you need is a 3G or WiFi connection, and friends who get Viber too.

I know it has been being worked on as I’ve read on Crackberry Forums but was pretty surprised it was released promptly after I read it. LOL. Anyway, it was apparently out yesterday.

At the moment, it’s perfect for those who are somewhere with wifi all the time because to be able to use it for local network internet, I think you’ll need the most expensive plan – the thing is, the other plans are either limited for social networking, emails or IM only so it’s not pretty much of use. Not many are yet “astonished” and finds its useful since most Blackberry users already have BBM – they did say in their Appworld Download Page that “free calls are coming soon“. Hopefully, it’s not a recorded voice message like the others.

Grab Viber for Blackberry here!

Mini Banner Live Theme for Blackberry 9790 soon?

May 7, 2012 4:49 pm | Leave a Comment - Posted by

A few days ago, I followed Lucky45 in twitter and was surprised the following day because he followed me back! But anyway, with our small talk he said a version for Blackberry 9790 of the Mini Banner Live is in the making. I’m excited!

If you try to recall, I blogged of the 3 best and working themes for Blackberry 9790 and remember my description for Seven Point 5:

2. Seven Point Five – It’s really simple but the folders are fab! Also, I had it as my first favorite theme because back then all themes had huge top portions (the one with signal and wifi symbol). Earlier, I have also downloaded a similar version called “Luck” which I just stumbled to after hours of searching for a Blackberry 9790 theme.

Apparently, it’s Lucky45′s theme. His theme was actually my first ever theme for Blackberry 9790 that I found in Crackberry Forums (and the reason why I signed up there too)

There are many themes coming out right now, but what I’m hoping for is that the Theme Studio 7 will be out anytime soon since Blackberry 10 is already out – don’t you think so?
