    Overall good experience

    The phone had quite a bit more wear and rare then I originally intended bought the product does clearly state that there was normal usage. I guess I just didn't expect that much. The batter charged quickly and came with the necessary cords and batteries as well as backs. Pleased overall

  • Older tech, priced right, and still useful in the right hands.

    At the time this review is being written, the BlackBerry 8830 "World Phone" is an older model and considered a legacy device. Development on the operating system used in the 8830 has halted and it cannot use many of the new applications written for more current model BlackBerrys. Even though the 8830 is dated technology, it is still a very useful device and performs excellently for email, texting, and as a personal information manager. The BlackBerry 8830 has perhaps the best keyboard on any BlackBerry model. Of course this is a totally subjective opinion, but the size and shape of this model is my all-time favorite. The fact that this model is slightly larger than the current models means RIM could make the keyboard that much larger. Although we're talking about a fraction of an inch, it ...

  • Like coming out of the stone age! Durable to smartphone

    I felt I needed a durable phone with my job but couldn't keep up with things technologically. I picked up a refurb bb8830 on ebay, and it does probably more than i need it to do, including play mp3, check email(fast) I could go on and on. Texting is a little of an adjustment as I have big fingers, and was used to using the T9 where it completes your words. Cannot do this on this one but I havent been able to put it down since I bought it. For a starter phone into the world of blackberry to learn on you cannot beat the price, which is why I bought it in the first place. I figured if I hated it, I was not out a ton of money, and after three days I am quite attached to it. Takes a little playing with to get used to but like I said, you cannot put it down once you get to messing with it. I ...

  • Glitches and Mannerisms of a Blackberry 8830

    I bought because it was a cheap smartphone. For the most part, it does what I ask: it goes online, it has email(somewhere), and it calls and texts. It does nto have a camera, which I don't mind. What I do mind, is the failing trackball and glitches. Sometimes my trackball doesn't like to scroll down, which wouldn't be such a nuisance if there was another way to navigate the phone, but there isn't. And sometimes the phone just likes to select random icons and ignore keyboard input. I think the problems could be fixed with cleaning or replacing the trackball and a software update, but I really only need the phone until another Palm Treo comes in the mail.

  • The RIM BlackBerry 8830 offers dual-mode functionality CLASSY!

    Like the BlackBerry 8800, the BlackBerry 8830 scores a new body that’s thin and sleek looking. The silver housing and chrome side panels look even better than the BlackBerry 8800 in dark blue. Silver can make a device look classy, and it certainly is the case with the BlackBerry 8830. The BlackBerry 8830 is the same size as the 8800 measuring in at 4.49 x 2.60 x 0.55 inches, but somehow it lost a little weight. The BlackBerry 8800 and 8830 have the BlackBerry Pearl’s stylish look, but with a wider body to accommodate the full keyboard and large landscape display. The built-in QWERTY keyboard on the BlackBerry 8830 should look familiar to BlackBerry veterans. Though the keys have more pronounced edges for a better touch-typing experience compared to last generation of BlackBerry phones, ...
