BlackBerry Curve 8520 QWERTY Keyboard mobile phone handset reviews and tariffs

+ Good all round smart phone and ideal for running small businesses from it. Will look forward to upgrading to a better model in the future as i got this as an entry level BB.

- Touch sensitive pad sometimes a bit tempramental, battery life not brilliant but only mainly when its been heavily used with wifi on etc, but the battery charges back up very fast so ....

+ THIS IS A REALLY GOOD PHONE EASY TO USE AND COMPACT

- HOWEVER SETTING UP THE EMAIL IS A NIGHTMARE

+ I like the keyboard on the phone as i find it must easier to use. The camera quality is also really good and i find that the phone also looks good.

- Not all phones can connect to it via bluetooth. The battery life is terrible as i find i use my blackberry all the time and i have to charge it at least twice a day.

+ Excellent for texting and browsing the internet

- Cannot receive anything vis Bluetooth or photos from other phones.

+ Brilliant for first time blackberry, love it !

- None

+ in general the phone is brilliant gives you exactly what it say it covers all my needs

- the battery life could be better having said that there are other phones out there with a far worse battery life

+ Overal good, never had a blackberry before so it was better than I thought it would be.

- Battery doesn't last as long as I would like, and I don't like the format of the calender. The key pad takes a bit of getting used to and it not quite as easy to use as a nokia but it is a good phone and would still buy it again.

+ easy keypad use
fast
lots of options

- camera isn't as good

+ Everything good

- Battery

+ Compact, easy to use

- keyboard slightly small

- Easy to scratch

+ the phone is perfect! i am able to use it for everything - sending group texts, calling home and emailing on the move.
and with the fantastic battery life it means i can use it all day long and not have to worry :)
i was really worried about getting a blackberry because i didnt know whether i would find it hard to work my way around it etc, admitingly the first few days were a bit tricky, but once u get the hang on it its fabbbb!
i love the music player easy to use, if u have free internet access its even better! its super easy to sync things onto your BB via your computer!
and blackberry messenger?! what a brillliant idea, i LOVE it!

- the camera :( its the only thing im upset about as it doesnt have a flash :( and only being a 2 megapixel its not even that great when its daylight.

+ the good points about this phone is that the memory for storing music is very good, also it looks very smart and the email service is brilliant and convenient for busy lifestyles.

- the bad points are my headphones broke after a week of purchase. also there is not a case to keep it clean and safe the way the 8900 has a case.

+ Good - well laid out and easy to use

- Bad - keypad buttons are quite small and its easy to press the wrong button

+ Easiest phone to use in the market in my point of view! Stylish and all the features that u would want to use!
It's so stylish too that u pray 4 people to fone/txt/e-mail u when ur out 2 show it off! Lol

- Earpiece on the handsfree kept breaking! Must have gone through about 3 pairs now! Any chance of a freebie blackberry??? ;)

- Know carryer for sale

+ The phone looks good.

- The phone is difficult to use.Its not use friendly.

+ Really easy to use, great features and range of functions is brilliant

- Camera doesn't have a flash so needs to be a light room if taking pictures

+ love it its a good looking phone and if your looking for orginsation you cant get better, if its gagests u want id recommend the iphone but the curve doesnt do to bad with app world

- it can take some time to learn now to use it and it doesnt like to hook up to other phones which can be annoying

+ It has good sound when on the phone and easy to use for most things

- I still cant work some features and wonder haw I cn sdo things without going on a website to finedut, more menu options for how lowud it wil be for all features would help

+ It's easy to use, and handy to have whilst on the go, and if you are a very busy and in demand individual then this is great because its a phone for just that. Great navigation, web browsing, emailing, and great sound quality.

- Camera is complete let down at 2 megapixels it does let the phone down for lack of quality. Also sometimes the phone does tend to freeze or load things slowly, but I tend to react to it as a computer/laptop sometimes that will happen!!

+ generally good all round phone ,e mail internet and organiser

+ looks good and easy to use.

- havent been able to connect to the interent since i got in, tech help did not help

+ everything is good about this phone

+ So very simple and easy to use straight out of the box.

- None that would put me off owning or buying another.

+ Blackberry Messenger is AMAZING !
Web Browsing is easy
Whole phone is easy to use and get around

- Considering it is a phone where the internet will be used extensively which will obviously use more battery, the battery life isn't very goood, however it still does last a while which is ok.

+ It might be a very good phone but I wouldn't know as you didn't deliver it in time and I cancelled order

- Reviewer left no comment

+ It is easy to use, very attractive, has convenient media buttons to pause/play/skip music on the top of the phone. Battery life is around 3 days which is brilliant, lasts ages even when it is used for playing music.

+ all good easy to use saves time at work when in meetings,
