Blackberry 9220

This device is for you if your lifeline depends on email, social apps and chats. But not good for browsing and gaming. The BB Apps world offers limited choices (which is understandable considering its not APPLE or GOOGLE PLAY STORE) and based on my usage, it is very difficult to download APPS considering I am using a postpaid data plan with BB service. On the good side, if you're into FB and Twitter, this device offer a heavy integration on its OS and the UI is kinda running smoothly though at times I encounter lags due to its network connectivity - GSM, GPRS and EDGE only. Overall, its a good device for first time smartphone users.
