Excellent Business Phone

19 Nov 2007 by Dee

8 out of 10

Excellent all-around messaging and phone device. The camera and media player features are just so-so, but I use it primarily for business--calling, email and texting. User controls are intuitive and easy to access (everything is only one or two clicks away) and battery life is good. Telenav is a decent GPS service, but I still prefer the flexibilty and feature set of a stand alone GPS device. Only uses EDGE, but the browser is reasonably fast so you don't notice the lack of 3G too much. Another plus the common mini-usb charger plug and standard headset plug.

Before this phone I had the Blackjack (Samsung I-607). Windows Mobile 5was s-l-o-w and took way too many steps to access the functions I wanted. POP mail was buggy on this device, too. The curve beats the pants off my old blackjack in my view.

The Curve is #1!!

25 Jun 2007 by phonegod

8.8 out of 10

My first opinion about the blackberry curve was that why would i need a phone with all that email but i was proved wrong when i got the phone. It worked very well, but when you first get it you have to go through this long process of setting it up and you have to go through this long setup wizard, but other than that the phone was great! I found out that the media player was kind of mediocre and it does not play videos. The 3.5mm headphone jack was very convinent, and after i got this phone for about a week i was obsessed about all the email capabilities it has!!
