This phone can be purchased for as little as $70 on e-bay. It is not a fancy android or I-phone, however, you can access the internet through Wi-Fi or a data plan. It can be used to access emails either through your work server or through a web based email like Gmail, yahoo, etc. by using Wi-Fi. The phone has many helpful features like a calenar and reminders, voice dial, media, etc. One can also download various apps, however, I am having some trouble doing this myself for some reason. The phone can also sync up with your desk top/lap top. This is a somewhat no-frills phone. You won't be the envy of the techy world. But I am very pleased with it.
Excellent item, very versatile, easy to use, with wi-fi, very easy to customize, great phone. Very useful, I organized a little better life, calendar, messages, contacts, allows video, music etc, is quite a pda. In my opinion an excellent pda. It is a shame that no camera.
Product works well! If I did not have Verizon in the states I would use the phone all the time. However, I bought the phone for international travel. For those interested in buying, be careful to check that your network allows Blackberry functions. Mine did not and I unfortunately had to return the phone (Orange Pre-paid SIM). Also, I found out that the wi-fi only works with a data plan, so if you do not have one, you will only be able to use the basic phone functions. Do not trust You-tube videos and forums that say you can hack it. You cannot.
I love the Blackberry phone, this was my 1st Blackberry, but i dont like that all the apps you can have take up all the memory... It wont let me use my memory card for the apps either. If there is no memory it just automatically deletes text messages sent and recieved and i didnt like that so i deleted the apps, i get on the internet i guess i really dont need them. i wish there was more memory on the actual phone itself. But i love the screen and the keyboard is much easier to use than other smartphones i have used!!
I sold mine and my wife's iPhone 4 because we were just tired of it and weren't using it enough to justify having such a phone. I still wanted a smartphone and new Blackberry's were good since I've owned one before. It is a great phone for the price and it gets the job done. Blackberry's are known for the great keyboard and email handling abilities. If I was to be really picky I would say Blackberry OS could handle text messages a little bit different. But it isn't too bad. It just feels primitive. The real bad thing about this phone is battery life. If you don't use it, it lasts. However, even a handful of quick phone calls will drain the battery dramatically. I think the Blackberry is a great alternative to iPhone and Android. For someone on a budget this is the right phone. However as stated before Blackberry needs a redesign on the text message area and improved battery life. I know the newer Blackberry's have a nice improved browser and it is very good but don't expect a smartphone web browsing experience.Read full review
