Display
Both the BlackBerry Torch 9800 and the BlackBerry Bold 9780 have 480 x 360 pixel resolution screens. Though both come with the same screen resolutions, the Torch has the extra screen size with a full 3.2 inch capacitive touchscreen. Here we must understand that the same pixel density on a bigger screen simply means that the Torch may suffer from graininess. Which means we could see rough edges on typefaces in emails. For a phone who's main selling point is the emails, it is not a great news.
