Blackberry Curve 8300 Smartphone Review

In steps the BlackBerry Curve to bridge the gap between the "corporate" 8800 series and the "consumer" 8100. The "Curve" is smaller than the 8800, yet wider than the Pearl. It seems to take the best of both worlds, however - the big screen and great resolution of the 8800 and pocketable size and thinness of the Pearl. Add in rich media features and 2.0 megapixel camera and it looks like RIM has a huge hit on its hands.

The BlackBerry Curve improves upon many of the features found in both the BlackBerry Pearl and the 8800 series. It is very solid to hold, has a full QWERTY keyboard, a big screen, multi-media features and famous BlackBerry email capabilities. The Curve adds some new features into BlackBerry’s arsenal like Push to talk, a 2.0 mega pixel camera and A2DP - Bluetooth Stereo Streaming capabilities.

..I love my Pearl. That being said, I think this is BlackBerry’s best device to date. Powerful enough for the business user and die-hard BlackBerry user and fun for those looking to also use this as an MP3 device, Video viewer and Camera. Bluetooth Stereo is a great addition and AT&T give you lots of options for spending money on extra software, music and games.
