BerrySpeedy – Test The Speed Of Your BlackBerrys Internet Connection Free! Let Us Know Your Speed

by Ronen Halevy on Nov 11th, 2008 at 2:02 pm EST

BerrySpeedy is a free app that acts as a speed test for your BlackBerrys internet connection. I can’t vouch for the validity of the speed test but the reported speeds on my AT&T Bold on 3G in New York City were just pitiful, all below the 15KB/second range. That’s as slow or slower than a dial up connection!

You can pick up the application OTA free at ota.deltatech.com.mx (Thanks Alex @ DeltaTech for sending this one in!)

Report back in the comments with your speeds, transports, carrier, Device, and location!

My speeds are below:

The icon statement was regarding how the Icon appears on the home screen. Most icons will highlight or change somehow when you select them. it helps you know which Icon you are choosing. The Icon for this app never changes. Mind you, it’s a very minor thing but I thought I would mention in case there’s an easy fix.

I see what you’re trying to explain.. its just a cosmetic enhancement.. but I’ll write them on the todo list for this app ….

So far I’ve recorded around 300 speed tests with version 1.3, which would give more information regaring speed by providers/countries/technologies… Please for the ppl that downloaded 1.0, redownload 1.3 and run the speedtest again, that will help get more data on the db and the reports will be a bit more representative of what ppl are getting out there..
