I love that phone. I had one in red- very sexy. It served me very well. I loved blackberries but the new era came. It also gave up on me, but served a long time and very well! I liked the looks and how easy blackberry was and the most i think I liked their keyboard- could type with my eyes closed!

great phone , have mine a few years before up grade....only problem keys for texting very small other then that has great reception

Have mine now for two years. I don't know what i'll do if I had to use touch screen.

I love this phone! It is incredibly durable, easy to use and has a decent camera.

I love my Blackberry Curve, it is my first phone on a contract and I didn't have to pay anything for it. It is easy to navigate through, although I wish the main screen was permanently set to frequent rather than all apps. I use mine to access facebook, read texts, and make phonecalls. The battery life is usually pretty good, it will last almost all day if i use it non stop. My curve hasn't frozen up on me too often in the 8 months I have had it, probably once or twice. I have no case for it and have a tendancy to drop my phones. this one has fallen about 30 times and only has a couple minor scratches, it is very durable. I would highly reccomend it!

This review is on the BB Curve 3G - 9800.

The keyboard on this baby is beautiful just like on all curves. Spaced perfectly, it's very comfortable to hold and use. It has all the high end 3G / blutooth / wifi qualities of its bigger Bold brother, but comes in a durable, smaller, more comfortable unit. The camera on it is average, but then again a BB is a tool, not a toy, so I don't technically expect the camera to be *that* good. I've used it for 2years now without a problem. It is very reliable, easy to troubleshoot and very durable.

Of all the curves so far this is by far the best. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a BB Curve.

at first i hated the fact that i had a blackberry
i didnt like the function nor did i understand it
i gave it time and now i cant live with out my curve! its addicting and effective
i can message everyone and anyone

Well, I felt like doing this review because I'd heard a lot of mixed reviews on this product. I got it a year ago because I was sick of using my generic brick-phone (similar to one of those Nokia bricks, but not).

Even now, a year and a bit later, I've been hearing about how quickly Blackberries break. I don't think this is true if you're properly taking care of it. My internet is a little slow, but once I visit a few pages it gets faster and I have no issues with it. My email works great on the phone; it's very convenient for me! I put reminders on my phone if I need to do something or if I have an appointment; there's a task list and a memo pad as well. Each of these are useful for me!

A year ago when I bought this phone, everyone had one; everyone wanted one. Now, not so much though there are still many people with a Blackberry. I think it'll stay; they'll come out with newer models and possibly rewire what's available in terms of apps and such, but the idea of a smartphone will not disappear. They're so convenient, I can't even imagine my life without one!

I cannot remember the price when I bought it, but I do remember that it was quite expensive. I bought a plan, so it wasn't anywhere near what buying the phone without a plan would be (between 4-500 bucks!), which is still good on its own.

Overall, I'd recommend this to anyone who's looking for an easy way to keep track of their schedule and an easy way to access email and contact people.

The Blackbery Curve is an amazing phone. It is the perfect medium between the all fun touch blackbery and the all work blackberry bold. It is a mix between the more traditional style and the up and coming style and it's great! I just got a hand me down one, but it's on it's way out but only because I am getting the Blackberry Storm as a gift. Otherwise, I would definatley keep it! It is a tad expensive, but hey it is a Blackberry! I love the scroll ball and it navigates very effectively! I also love the media capabilities, you can still view pictures and take great pictures ( I love the fact that it has flash for the camera) but it is still a work class phone. Weather it is sending emails or texting friends, taking pictures or sending info, the blackberry has it all at the touch of a button. I will be getting the Storm only because I am a gadget nerd and love to play with things, but still love the organization of Blackberry, I Phone move out the way!
