Who’s It For
Business user – The Blackberry 8703e is an excellent choice for a business user looking for a no nonsense messaging and PIM device.
Budget callers – Budget callers who want a smart phone may want to consider the Blackberyy 8703e, but most budget callers will be better of with a regular phone for free or a little more.
Chatty teenager – The Blackberry 8703e is probably not a device that a chatty teenager will enjoy very much; the lack of multimedia functionality and less than appealing looks will probably send them looking for something else.
Media maven – The Blackberry 8703e is definitely not the phone for a media maven. There are plenty of media centric smart phones out there such as the Nokia N73 With the 8703e, no camera, no music and no video add up to no sale.
Conclusion
The Blackberry 8703e is a good example of RIM’s philosophy for phones. Make things simple, make things dependable. Although the 8703e is beaten out by many phones on individual features, even including things like messaging, the overall package makes for a strong business device. Our low score for the 8703e reflects the lack of multimedia features that are found on regular handsets. But, for a business oriented handset , the lack of these features could be considered a bonus. For someone looking for a solid messaging device that integrates easily with their corporate environment, few other choices can match up with the 8703e.
