Advances in technology make using a smartphone a requisite for any real estate agent worth her/his weight. Many options are available, but two phones have risen to the top of the smartphone food-chain.
Is the Blackberry Bold or iPhone better for business?
How the heck can I answer that without subjecting myself to hostility? I can tell you this though - the Blackberry Bold is the best Blackberry ever created. The Bold was designed for business use and boasts features the iPhone does not have including: ability to edit documents & video recording. The Blackberry Bold’s security also makes a compelling argument. The Blackberry is a preferred phone for Supra eKEY (GE Security); BlackBerry users can now join the thousands of real estate professionals already enjoying the timesaving benefits of eKEY service on their Palm and Windows smartphones.
Before you go buying a Blackberry Bold let’s talk about the iPhone. Apple’s iPhone is the 2nd sexiest thing I have ever held (1st is you honey). The UI is beautiful, the web browser blows Blackberry out of the water, and did I mention it was sexy? Apple’s App store for the iPhone holds many great real estate related applications, with new ones churned out all the time.
Let’s remember the iPhone is designed for the consumer; you can hail cabs, order groceries, make fart sounds all from your iPhone. The developer community supporting iPhone applications is large and active. If you fall in love with an application, or two, the iPhone may prove to be the best phone for your needs.
Hi Jordan. I have neither. I love the latest technology but I have been dragging my feet getting a smart phone. I'm already joined at the hip to my computer. I'd hate to be as attached to my phone! I'm sure I'll give in at some point. Thanks for the comparison.
I am always checking out the new smart phones and I am always asking friends but none of them use it in the same capacity that we do so I was glad to see you post this from a RE stand point.
As a user of both devices I can tell you that I personally prefer the Blackberry ONLY because the iPhone drops calls more often than Paris Hilton drops crappy products upon the unsuspecting consumers.
That being said, the gadget freak in me loves many things about the iPhone...but clients get annoyed with dropping their calls...
Oh, and the keyboard on the BB far exceeds the speed and accuracy of the touch screen version on iPhone
I am thrilled my Palm Treo is on its last legs, so that I can upgrade to either the Blackberry Bold, BB Curve or Iphone. Anyone think the BB Bold screen is too small to look at mlx data or other documents? Anyone have an easy way to learn how to type on the Iphone with fingernails? Looking forward to more posts to help me make a decision. Is G3 really worth the hype or just go back to a Blackberry Curve. Thanks all.
