If you had to choose one feature of BlackBerry 6 to be seen on OS 5, I’m pretty sure you would go for the web browser. BlackBerry users have wanted to see the web browser improve more than anything else. With the Torch 9800 and OS 6 we finally get to see WebKit rendering on our BlackBerries. As you may know from several hands-on videos, compared to the old browser it’s a huge difference.

Though the big questions is how the new BlackBerry browser does its job compared to the latest high-end devices. Kevin from Crackberry was asking himself the same question and he tried out for him self. The video is pretty interesting and a little disappointing. He matched up the BlackBerry Torch 9800 with the Apple iPhone 4 and the new Android-based Samsung Captivate. No matter what, the winner is clearly not the Torch 9800. The good news though: It did a really good job compared to what we’ve seen so far on other BlackBerries. If you come from OS 5 you’ll notice a massive improvement.

Check out the source link to view Kevin’s full results. Don’t forget to share your thoughts with us, we would really like to know what you think about the new BlackBerry browser.
