The Blackberry Curve, is my office everywhere.

Date of Review:  Jan 5, 2009
The Bottom Line:

The Curve 8330 is a phone with a mobile office in one. Receive and send emails, get notifications of appointments and more!

Review: The Blackberry 8330 Curve is not just a cellular phone, but it is my office away from the office. I have my company email and my home email both on the curve. It also checks my calendar and lets me know when an appointment is coming up. It keeps...

The Perfect (Business) Phone

Date of Review:  Mar 20, 2009
The Bottom Line: There is a reason why Blackberries are the defacto standard in Enterprise enviroments, and why Windows Mobile is still struggling for this market.
Review: While RIM is marketing their first touchscreen Blackberry as the first Blackberry for fun as well as work, all reviews seem to point out that it's not that great for either. The touchscreen just felt tacked-on.

So what does this say about...

The BlackBerry Curve: Excellent Way to Stay Connected 24/7

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2009
The Bottom Line:

The BlackBerry Curve is an excellent phone for anyone looking for an all-in-one way to stay connected on the go.

Review: Many have heard the nickname Crackberry. I was surprised I didn t hop on this addiction train immediately. All of the risk factors were there. I have multiple email addresses that I feel the need to check compulsively. I have a daily commute that...

~~ The Blackberry Curve :: A Non-Techie Perspective ~~

Date of Review:  Jul 18, 2009
The Bottom Line: I love my Blackberry Curve 8330! It keeps me connected to my email, allows me to surf the web, and is easy to use.
Review: My husband and I both needed new phones because our aging Motorola Razrs could only handle a 2-3 minute conversation before dying. After much thought and debate, we purchased Blackberry Curves since Verizon was having their Buy One, Get One Free...

Finally a smartphone that works

Date of Review:  Apr 5, 2009
The Bottom Line: If your an Alltel customer this phone is as good as it gets for now.
Review: First off let me state that I am an Alltel customer and that this is my third smart phone. My other two smart phones were made by HTC PPC-8700 and PPC-6800 "Mogul Titan"and ran windows mobile. Compared to those phones this device is simply out of...

It's come into its own

Date of Review:  Apr 3, 2009
The Bottom Line: The Curve is the versatile and high-quality phone that I had been waiting years for.
Review: After finally getting through my two years with the KRZR (see other review), I decided that I wanted a QWERTY keyboard for messaging, and a camera with more than 2 megapixels. I prefer a flip phone, but I didn't like the ones that were available for...

So far, my favorite phone!

Date of Review:  Dec 4, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you can get it for $100 or less, you can't go wrong!
Review: Well, I have had my Blackberry Curve 8330 for approximately two weeks and, thus far, it has met or exceeded my expectations. I chose the Curve based on various reviews I have read on many sites. On most sites, it recieves at least 4 out of 5 stars...

A solid Blackberry, but room for software improvement

Date of Review:  Jan 2, 2009
The Bottom Line: The Curve is a good phone, a good business tool and a marginal audio-video tool. It should improve with new OS releases that address HTML email, audio and video shortcomings.
Review: I've used the Sprint 8330 Curve for about 6 months now, having moved from a Palm Treo which used the Palm OS. I would not have changed except that the Palm mysteriously refused to sync with my desktop one day, and after a month and 20 hours of time...

Very good (though not great)

Date of Review:  Sep 3, 2008
The Bottom Line: Blackberry remains the only game in town for solid email connectivity.
Review: This CDMA phone is relatively new to Verizon, though has been out for more than a year in GSM form, and I ve owned it since May 2008. Rather than lay out all of the features that can be found on Blackberry s website, I ll itemize the good, the bad...

Great for both business and personal use

Date of Review:  Jul 8, 2009
The Bottom Line: The BlackBerry Curve is good for on-the-road business use. Plenty of features without being overwhelming! Great for Professional needs and Stylish for Personal use!
Review: I finally gave in to the hype over owning a smartphone and I couldn't be happier with my decision. I've been hesitant over the past year or so with reading many reviews about the apparant flaws a blackberry may have, however my personal experience...
