Blackberry Curve By Reneecancun02 By reneecancun02 on May 15, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I recently was able to upgrade on my cell phone plan with AT and T. I had been wanting something with some extra features (calendar for appointments, email, etc.) so I thought I would try the BlackBerry Curve. With my upgrade option, I was able to get it a refurbished one for free. When it came in the package, it looks exactly like a new phone.

It is a PDA so it has many options on it. I don't use everything. I use the email option, the texting, and the appointment calendar (which is a godsend!).

I've had it about a month now and I absolutely love it. I chose the Crimson color. It's a very sleek looking design. It is a little wider than a flip phone but I don't mind that. It has the QWERTY keyboard which is awesome for texting. I have 2 teenage children that love texting me. With my old phone it took me forever to text (after I figured out how to do it!) and with this one it's much easier.

The display screen on the Curve is a very nice size (about 2"x2"). When you take pictures with the phone, you can actually see the picture better. The camera on it is actually pretty good for a cell phone.

The only problem that I have had with this phone is the Bluetooth. And it's not really a problem but more like a letdown I guess. The Razr phones can't support the Curve so I can't get any music sent to me from anyone with a razr. So I'm currently trying to find someone that has a phone that can support linking with a Blackberry Curve.

This phone also has GPS and mapping software. I haven't figured this out yet but am working on it.

This phone is sleekly designed and looks professional. I think it is a great little smartphone!
