“Blackberry curve 9800”

★★★★★

written by Smith123456 on 28/07/2011

I received my delivery a day before the actual date so I was very happy with the shipping and when it arrived I was very happy with the packaging and the item itself because it was in a very good condition. Also I would recommend this seller to anyone who is not sure about buying things online :)

“A Blackberry is everything it says it is on the...”

★★★★★

written by katemate on 10/10/2010

A Blackberry is everything it says it is on the packet. It is basically a computer in a mobile phone, and I find I hardly ever use my laptop anymore.
I have had minimal problems with my phone, and I have had it 7 months now, the only problem I get is that photo's sometimes don't delete until you restart the phone, which takes a very very long time.
Also, you can't save text messages, and texts are shown as instant message type conversations, but that's not really a problem. The camera is OK quality, but I wouldn't get the phone if you're looking for a good camera.
Blackeberry Messenger is a great application, it allows Blackberry users to message each other instantly, showing when the message has been delivered and read, and it's usually free with the package.
I do pay £35 a month for my phone, but it's well worth the money, and I would recommend them to anyone!

★★★★★

written by chernij on 24/04/2010

This phone has the qualities of a top-of-the-range smartphone, with one lacking feature: 3G. The keyboard is excellent, and so is the trackball. A decent camera with flash, too. There is a big collection of apps to download, and with WiFi, this phone certainly is handy. However, the lack of 3G is highly dissappointing in a phone of this quality.

This phone is sleek and sophisticated. It has a decent 3.2mp camera with flash; the e-mail service on it is second-to-none and overall it is a great quality phone with many great features.

“So, picture the scene. You are late for work, you...”

★★★★★

written by amazz10 on 15/12/2009

So, picture the scene. You are late for work, you have forgotten to book tickets for the big match, you promised a client that you would e-mail their figures first thing, you forgot to go over the dictation notes from the previous days' big meeting and you left your Satellite Navigation system at your mums at the weekend. How are you going to do all this and still get to head office for a training course?
With the Blackberry Curve 8900 Smartphone of course!
Yes, you can do all this and more at the push of a button with the latest handset from RIM (Research In Motion).
Aside from the teenage girls who want Blackberry devices simply because Paris Hilton has one, the most common Blackberry users have been those in business. However, times are changing and with the latest device coming equipped with a 3.2mp camera (with flash), full internet access (with WI-FI) and a user friendly media feature (with album art), a whole new market has been gained.
In the past, ask any phone junkie which model they have and more often than not they would reply with Nokia, Sony-Ericsson or Samsung. Ask them why and they would list a vast array of preferences from the quality of the camera to the in-depth features of the MP3 player. Blackberry have acted on this and beefed up the 'street cred' of their new Smartphone.
To most people, a Blackberry device is an email device, which is true. You can link up to ten emails accounts to your handset and manage all your emails on the move. You can delete them from not only your phone but also your main computer too, all from your handheld. Composing emails is ridiculously easy and very, very handy at times.
Aside from its beautiful design, the first thing that strikes you about this handset is the perfectly sized QWERTY keypad. Even for those of us with chubby fingers (Me included), the keypad is big enough to type quickly on, without adding unwanted letters in the process. This is great for texting and composing e-mails on.
The familiar track ball is in attendance, allowing users to scroll quickly and smoothly through menus and web pages with ease.
The second redeeming feature of the design is the sharp, crystal clear, high resolution, 2.4inch LCD screen. The size is relative to the keypad and it allows for exactly the right amount of information to be viewable at any one time. It is also a joy to view your pictures on, which brings us to the camera.
At 3.2mp, the untrained consumer may well think that they would be better off going for one of the many 8mp camera phones out there at the minute. However, think about this. Unless you are printing your snaps onto A3 size or more, then you will be no worse off with a Curve, than you would be with a Sony Ericsson W995. It really does have a great camera and with the option of sending your shots straight to email or even straight to facebook via your phone, it really does have to be seen to be believed.
The Internet browser is a joy to use and despite the fact that it is not HSDPA, is it still pretty quick. Great news for all you facebook addicts out there is the 'facebook for Blackberry' application which you can download for free in minutes. This allows you to stay on top of every status comment as they come in as the handset notifies you of each and every new notification, literally, within seconds of their arrival. Booking tickets is a piece of cake with the large screen ideal for all your favourite websites and as I said earlier, confirmation e-mails can be sent straight to your handheld.
One of the greatest things about owning a Blackberry is the PIN service. This allows any Blackberry user in the world, to contact another via live text chat, similar to MSN, completely FREE. The only thing that you have to make sure is that your calling plan has a data bundle attached and that your Blackberry service is active.
As I stated earlier in this review, the device can come to your rescue should you ever misplace your Sat Nav, as it has a Maps feature. All phones come with a 30 day trial free in the box. Other features include a voice recorder, which comes in handy in meetings or lectures, video recorder and much more.
All in all, the Blackberry Curve 8900 Smartphone is a fantastic piece of kit, useful for all walks of life.

“I've had the Blackberry Curve 8900 for about a month...”

★★★★★

written by Taylott on 07/07/2009

I've had the Blackberry Curve 8900 for about a month now, and i can honestly say it's the best phone i've ever had. Previously i've always stuck to Nokia's, and was never interested in "Smartphones", but i decided to give the Curve a try!

It really is quite an amazing phone. The size is perfect, and fits into your pocket perfectly, not as big as the Bold. The functions are really easy to use, and navigation around the phone is seamless.

I find very useful the email functionality (take the time to set it up properly) and the calendar settings, not to mention the camera with auto focus! The battery life is good which i was quite suprised about.

If you're new to smartphones and considering getting a Blackberry, then i certainly recommend getting the Curve 8900.
