BlackBerry Curve 8900 Review
Welcome back to Tech18.com, today i am gonna discuss about BlackBerry Curve 8900 which is RIM’s first ever smartphone to come equipped with Wi-Fi, GPS and a 3.2-megapixel autofocus camera.
Specification:
- The Curve 8900 is equipped with a smaller display (2.4-inches) as compared to the Bold’s 2.6-inch TFT LCD
- The Black Trackball or ‘Black Pearl’, as it were, looks better with this handset and we still believe this is the best form of mobile UI navigation, bar none.
- Its full QWERTY keypad is well laid out and with segregated keys like this, typing is also a whole lot easier in comparison to the Bold.
- On one side of the handset is a singular key for voice activating features and on the other side is the micro USB connectivity port, Camera key, volume/zoom keys and a 3.5mm handsfree cum earphone socket.
- The handset is lightweight and that makes it easy to carry.
- The camera with its LED flash is located at the rear, and though the handset doesn’t have a hot swap slot for the microSD card, you won’t need to remove the battery to get to it.
Features and Performance
Interface and OS Performance
- The interface is unchanged. It’s no different from the Bold’s UI so rest assured it’s fast and fluid.
- There are no lag or jerky motions while navigating.
- The icons are large and clearly depictive of what their features activate.
Review:
Good 🙂
Well designed handset
Keypad is spaced out well
Camera quality is good
Audio and video players are great
All other BlackBerry features work perfectly
Bad 🙁
Bit of an issue with BIS and EDGE speed (possible issue with test handset)
Thanks: Shayne Rana & Angelo Mathews 🙂
