A dream come true!!

Pros: SO MANY DIFFERENT FEATURES!! STYLISH!!

Cons: The battery life isn't so long. HARDEST phone to learn to learn to use!!

Summary: This is my first smartphone and I find it very good for a first time smartphone buyer. I was recently (regretfully) using the Sanyo S1. I learned to use this phone all beacause of the exsistence of youtube! This phone is amazing though! I have the Everything Data 1500 min. plan with Sprint. Which makes a phone VERY useful!! Anyway, this is a great smartphone and I totally recommend it!!

Best Phone I've ever had

Pros: QWERTY keyboard that's accurate,Fast Texting,Clear Camera,Long Battery Life.

Cons: It takes a while to charge from a dead battery but I can't really complain.

Summary: I've had Motorolas,LG's,Nokias,Palms,and this phone kills them all.I have put this Curve through the paces and it handled everything I threw at it.I have not had any of the Lag problems the other reviewer wrote about on here.I get all my texts,pics and video with instant speed.I can only guess he's at the borders of his service provider.I have Sprint and it rocks with all of the Sprint Mobile features.GPS is dead on and the lady who could not adjust her ring volume just needs to go to the Profiles Icon (Little speaker) and select from there.It's easy.I suggest getting the Body Glove hard rubber protective case for this phone.You'll love it.

Wasn't completely happy

Overall Rating:

3.2 out of 5

Experience: 8 Months

Pros: Messaging is fast, web browsing and email are great! Having everything at your fingertips at all times and pretty much anything you can do on a PC you can do on this made it wonderful. There are tons of applications out there that will fit everyones needs.

Cons: System freezes/locks to where you have to reset the phone. Any problems you have with the phone isn't usually dealt with in the store which means they have to send you a replacement or talk with you over the phone which means more down time with a problem phone. Updates for these phones are done at home on a PC and can be very time consuming

Summary: Although there were a lot of great features, I stopped using mine because of dependability. The system froze a lot and I'd have to take out the battery and "reboot" it. Once or twice is ok, 5-10 times a day was not. I ended up going through 3 phones and many reprograming and after 8 months of dealing with this, I went back to a normal phone.

Amazing BB

Overall Rating:

4.5 out of 5

By: Matt L on Tuesday, March 17, 2009
From: Denver, CO (United States)
Experience: 1 Months

Pros: Compact size, yet still comfortable qwerty keyboard. Breathtaking display- better than all previous models. Excellent battery life (3-4 days). All the options and reliability expected with the BB name. The push email is flawless, and the 3.2 mp camera takes excellent photos!

Cons: No touch screen (but this could also be a plus). Slightly loose build quality. No 3G (but battery life is more important)

Summary: I switched to the t-Mobile branded Curve 8900 after going through 2 t-Mobile G1's in 3 months. The BlackBerry has been reliable and feature rich compared to the G1. The G1 lacked support for Video recording, stereo bluetooth, system theming, and hardware limitations include: a lack of 3.5mm headphone jack, terrible battery life, quiet and weak ringer and vibraion setting, and overall chunkiness and poor build quality.

The BlackBerry provides everything the G1 lacks and more. Built in 3.5mm headphone jack, excellent battery life and power management features (auto on/off), loud ringers and stronger vibration, free theme building software, Holster profiles (ringer and standby settings), and better, much more elegant hardware.

This phone is perfect for the business professional, and discerning consumer who wants rich features and rock solid reliability.
