Quintessential smartphone

by thegsrguy , Sep 29 '07
Pros: Small and light, good battery life, great interface, decent camera, stylish
Cons: Pricey, RF performance could be better, period key
Yes, BlackBerry devices have a negative connotation. If you own a BB, you more than likely are obsessed with it and are just perpetually e-mailing and surfing the Internet. It's associated with "middle management" and those annoying people in suits who ...

Blackberry Curve (8300) best smart phone I’ve owned yet!

by hightesthome , Jul 26 '07
Pros: So many features, it’s amazing!
Cons: MicroSD slot behind battery.
Over the last several years, I’ve owned a Samsung i300, Palm Treo 650 and Treo 680 smart phones. I’ve also tried a couple Windows Mobile based phones, the last being the T-Mobile Dash. Unfortunately all of the previously mentioned phones never seemed ...

A great alternative to the i Phone for business people

by kldesq , Jan 13 '08
Pros: If you use email buy the Curve and forget the i Phone.
Cons: Battery life could be a little longer.
I've had five Black Berry devices over the past four plus years and the BB Curve 8310 is by far the best one. It is really a great alternative to the i Phone in that it boasts many of the features of the i Phone but KILLS it doing email. My wife has an i ...

CURVE vs. PEARL

by tapc1 , Sep 06 '07
Pros: Thinner than traditional blackberrys; sleek design, quility voice and sound. Trackball is awesome
Cons: bigger than the pearl, Cannot record VIDEO, though it plays video files
I finally got this phone after I had the Pearl for about 6 months..... The pearl was excellent as a phone, but was lacking as an email portal..... It all depends on what you think you want. originally I wanted a quality phone, with the ability to do ...

One of the best out there

by diver165 , Apr 28 '08
Pros: Great email functions. Battery life rocks, compatibility with Outlook is seamless.
Cons: File transfers only allowed with USB cable. No 3G version yet.
I love this phone. I used to have a Palm 750 and hated the battery life. A friend of mine got the new Blackberry 8300 and told me he could get 4 days w/o a charge. I traded immediately. The phone is nice and compact. Its about 1/2 inch thick and ...

I look at it with lust

by elmodorph , Oct 04 '07
Pros: Best Blackberry in History.
Cons: slow web page scrolling from top to bottom.
FIRST IMPRESSION: Wow this is a perfect phone, the buttons are easy to push and the menus are easy to navigate through. Personalization is pristine. If you want to change an operation of a button you can. If you want to sort something differently ...

Very good functionality with all the right options

by erinbarriere , Dec 29 '07
Pros: light weight, many applications to use, compact design
Cons: no touch screen option for navigation
I just switched over from the Sprint Treo to this phone and after 2 weeks have finally gotten the knack for it. I use this for phone, email, calendar, texting, and internet browser on a very regular basis and have it tie back to both my work email ...

Never thought I would own a blackberry, but now I can imagine not having one

by camanche20850 , Dec 14 '07
Pros: light weight, easy to use, full keyboard, configuration, camera
Cons: SIM card hard to get to, not many themes, backgrounds, and games, documentation
I never thought I would like the ball on the keyboard, but I have quickly changed my mind. Its a lot easier to manipulate through the various options with just hand and not having to manipulate the wheel on the side makes the 8300 a choice everyone ...

The Curve is Sexy
by leetoowey ,Jul 28 '07
Pros: The curves trackball is one of the most compelling features of this phone.
Cons: $19.99 / month charge to add on the email package.
Price is nice, light weight, fits well in pocket. The trackball makes navigation easy. Great for gmail users because there is an application that makes email free and only takes a single click. Today, the iPhone gets all of the hype. This phone will do everything an iPhone will - mp3 player, phone, video, camera, internet brower,etc.
Granted, it is not as cool as an iPhone nor is browsing as easy as the iPhone, but I only paid $149 for the phone after rebate. One downside is the $19.99 additional charge for the email package. The workaround is download the gmail application and utilize free email.

It's perfect!
by meuba ,Jan 27 '08
Pros: Easy navigation, small size, keyboard
Cons: Volume control on ringer
I absolutely love this phone--extremely easy set up, effortless navigation, good finger feel when dialing and texting and a smaller size make for the most fantastic phone I have ever owned.
I own an Imac and it synched right up with my address book with the application of Pocketmac.com
There are a number of available options for this phone as far as games, themes and applications are concerned.
