RIM BlackBerry Curve 8900 review

 

No 3G, but a beautifully compact BlackBerry

Stylish and compact ; 3.2 megapixel camera ; Wi-Fi ; 3.5mm headphone jack ; GPS

No 3G ; Keyboard feels just a little cramped

If you can live without 3G, this mini-Bold is a great little Blackberry

BlackBerry Curve 8900

 

It is difficult to go anywhere without seeing a BlackBerry Curve, especially if you have the misfortune to commute to work everyday on public transport. The last generation, the 8300 series, was a venerable workhorse, simple in design and interface,...

New friendlier OS, faster, refreshed consumer friendly design, GPS and Wi-Fi, excellent for email

Keyboard movement, no HSDPA

But the phone isn’t perfect. It isn’t a mini clone of the Bold, it’s a different device, which might irk those who want or need faster data rates. Whilst the build quality is good all over, a few things niggle: some play in the keyboard, a common...

BlackBerry Curve 8900 - black (AT&T) review

 

Editors' note: The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8900 for AT&T is similar to T-Mobile's Curve 8900 in design. For this review, we will be concentrating on the different features and performance compared with the T-Mobile version. For a full description of the...

The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8900 offers a sleeker design and a vibrant display. The smartphone features Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS, and brings new productivity tools, a full HTML Web browser, and a 3.2-megapixel camera. There's also support for the...

The BlackBerry Curve 8900 lacks 3G.

The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8900 brings a number of improvements and additions to make it a nice upgrade to the Curve 8300 series. That said, AT&T offers other QWERTY smartphones that include 3G support and for less.

RIM has given its traditional email workhorse a makeover. But is it really worth upgrading to?

A great BlackBerry for work and play, and ideal if you don't fancy the specced up Bold or the Storm
