BlackBerry Tour Processor Speed

The arrival of the BlackBerry Tour on the smartphone market has created quite a buzz. Consumers were anxious to know all the details about this exciting handset months even before it was released.

Well, the device certainly did not disappoint BlackBerry fans when it landed. The smartphone offered a pleasing design combined with great features. However, a lot of users were still curious to know about the BlackBerry Tour processor speed.

But why are people interested in the BlackBerry Tour processor speed? Well, I think they want to compare it with other smartphones in the market. RIM has a good line up of BlackBerry handset so knowing the processor speed on the phone would be a crucial information when making a comparison.

The BlackBerry Tour processor speed is listed at 528 MHz. Is this the highest speed among RIM's handsets? Well, No. The processor on the BlackBerry Bold is faster at 624-Mhz.

However, when one combines the Tour's 528-MHz next-generation processor with the OS v4.7 build, the result will be one of the smoothest running BlackBerrys on the block. Some experts have described the combination as speed with minimal process lag-time.

All in all, it shows that the Tour is a world class device. At $199.99 with a new, two-year Verizon/Sprint contract, this device is ready to take on any of the top phones in the market.

That's it for this post on the Tour and it's solid processor. Tune in to this blog to get the latest news and info on everything wireless.
