The blackberry curve 8310 is a little difficult to learn how to use at first but the book covers almost areas of operations of the phone. The body of the blackberry curve is great for a man as it is larger than a flip phone. It is not so great for a woman who wears "boyfriend style" jeans as the pockets of the jeans are not very deep and the blackberry easily falls out of the top of the front pockets. A plus is that if you lay down the phone anywhere, as large as it is, the phone is easier to find than a flip phone. The blackberry curve 8310 has a nice large screen which is perfect for reading emails on the internet. There are quite a few features on the blackberry that you cannot use unless you purchase the multimedia plan through your carrier. Through AT&T the Blackberry plan cost $10 a month more than the cost of the plan for my Pantech Breeze flip phone. I ended up giving the Blackberry Curve 8310 to my husband to use with the internet. I opted for my simple Pantech Breeze which is a fantastic phone with large numbers that are easier for me to see than the numbers on the Blackberry Curve 8310. Would I buy it again for myself to use, "No" but I would buy my husband another one due to the size of the phone which is perfect for men's big hands and the fact that the screen is wider to read emails.Read full review
Bottom line: The Good: The Blackberry Curve 8310 has a scratch-resistant finish, doubled up with a great bright screen, makes this phone just as attractive to a 12 year old as to a 80 year old, and everywhere in between. The phone features a great camera, video recorder, and makes a great note taker. The Bad: This Curve model currently doesn't support WiFi, which is pretty strange, since most phones do. The battery life isn't too great if you text most of the day through, or listen to music. Most of the features that are more popular can't be accessed without a media card, especially the video recorder. -- When I got this phone, I loved it. It was very addicting, actually-- I bought everything I needed for it within the first week and a half.. The essentials, like a media card and a silicone case.. I didn't buy a screen protector, as the phone screen is mostly prone to staying strong through wear and tear. The screen does get dust under the screen, but its very minimal, and unless you work somewhere where your phone is under constant attacks, this phone is great-- for anything.. Call quality is great, interface is good.Read full review
Love the keypad on the 8310, has a great tactile feel when using it. The roller ball on the 8310 is smooth and precise making navigating the phone's menus and web browser a breeze. The camera takes decent photos which you can quickly send via MMS, email, or facebook (if you have the app installed). The phone also has the ability to capture video (after OS update) but it requires a memory storage card to be installed to save recordings. I use the 8310 mostly to check multiple email accounts while on the go as well as SMS texting. The Blackberry Messenger is a great feature built into all BB phones which allows you to message other BB users without using up your texting allotment. Since my wife has a BB I prefer using BB messenger so I don't waste text messages (that's her job ;) )
The good: The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8310 adds GPS capabilities to the already impressive and sleek messaging smartphone. You also get a 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and good call quality. The bad: The Curve 8310 doesn't offer Wi-Fi or 3G support. The Web browser isn't the sleekest, and the camera lacks video-recording capabilities. Also, unlike the T-Mobile version, you get only the proprietary BlackBerry Messenger IM client. The bottom line: Still offering an attractive design and excellent messaging capabilities, the addition of GPS makes the RIM BlackBerry Curve 8310 an even more attractive choice for road warriors.
Featuring a metallic finish, clean lines and soft edges, the BlackBerry Curve 8310 smartphone is the smallest and lightest BlackBerry smartphone ever to come with a full QWERTY keyboard.It's packed with incredible features, including a camera, a multi-media player, built-in GPS, expandable memory, Voice Dialing, BlackBerry Maps and trackball navigation. Plus, you get all the core functionality you've come to expect in a BlackBerry smartphone - email and text messaging, instant messaging, web browser and advanced phone functionality.The BlackBerry Curve - it's your connection to everything that matters.
