BlackBerry 8300 Curve User Reviews

A fantastic looking and practical phone, ideal for people on the move who want to know whats going on. Check your e-mails, messages or even update your Facebook page its so easy to do. Great battery life even when used on a regular basis, simple but very effective functions. A must have.

I previously had an iphone and I thought it was good and in a way this seems to be better at some things and worse at others. The screen is beautiful and clear and I seem to be able to read it more easily, than the iphone. My fingers just seem to be too big for the buttons and I find that I can easily type the wrong thing in because of overlap, this means I have to keep checking what Im typing. Battery life is good and good apps avaialble.

A good phone with good functions which have proved invaluable for work and a million times better than the SPV I had before. Ease of sending photos by mail / SMS a big bonus as are the other multimedia options. Have found reception slightly disappointing but this may be my service provider.

The phone works best as a portable email facility. Unless you're going to be using this on a regular basis it makes sense to shop elsewhere. There is no radio, for example, and the camera and facilities within the media manager are not the best.

However for me it is indispensable as it allows me to respond to emails quickly (using push, not pull technology)

Good device and easy to use. The handset is quite attractive and easily fits in the palm of your hand. Different colour choices other than grey could make it more appealing. Only problem would be the rollerball, it may be a fault but alot of them seem to break or get stuck and you can only roll one way or not at all.
