Comments on: Bolt Browser For BlackBerry Comes Out Of Beta http://www.rimarkable.com/bolt-browser-for-blackberry-comes-out-of-beta The Unofficial BlackBerry Weblog Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:11:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Enough http://www.rimarkable.com/bolt-browser-for-blackberry-comes-out-of-beta/comment-page-1#comment-141663 Enough Sat, 19 Nov 2011 16:30:00 +0000 http://www.rimarkable.com/?p=6599#comment-141663 All 3 browsers are horrible: Bolt, Opera Mini AND of course BB's sh!tcan browser. Bolt's browser is just freakin' weird-looking to me. Idk, it's just weird. When you want to type something in it takes you to a blank page so you can type something in. Weird. And after I installed Opera mini, the 1st thing I typed up couldn't come up! The very first thing! I'm tired of fighting BB's monsterous browser. It's getting to the point where the browser won't even pick up images/pictures when I pull up sites (50-60% of the time). Support is expensive, apps are expensive, the phone is expensive when it should cost $79 tops with it's short-comings. Idk. I'm just going to get myself an Android and never look back at this <i>brand</i> again. All 3 browsers are horrible: Bolt, Opera Mini AND of course BB’s sh!tcan browser.

But if you tried the leaked BlackBerry 5.0 firmware you wouldn't go to another browser. I installed 5.0 OS on my BlackBerry Bold and I noticed the browser's performance has been dramatically increased. I don't quite care for flash support unless you want to slow down your BlackBerry to a halt. It displays and navigates websites 50 times better than before. In general, 5.0 OS is a massive performance upgrade. I know how you feel. But if you tried the leaked BlackBerry 5.0 firmware you wouldn’t go to another browser.

It actually adds a open in opera mini option when you click on links. It is a pretty cool feature. Try Opera Mini 5 Beta… It actually adds a open in opera mini option when you click on links.

Frankly, most of the web access I do comes from another app, so I don't want to copy an address, open the Bolt browser, and paste it in. Until the OS allows us to change default Browsers, the Blackberry will maintain it's sub-par (too generous a term) browsing experience.
