Good: Well it was user friendly

Bad: Its completly broken in one year even though I looked after it

Comment: I believe the phone is made of inferior components.
Battery life has gone down from 6hours to 2hours in a year. Now if I take a video or even a picture it bombs out and turns off.

The track ball has stopped working...so I got messages on the phone that I can't read, can't make phone calls. There is no back up navigation keys so I can't do anything with it.

I thought about trying to get it fix it because I bought this phone cash thinking that If I looked after it...It would last. I paid R2400 which is about $300USD.

But I'm thinking that this phone can never be fixed...Its processors are probably aging and will draw more power and the phone will continue to bomb.
When these phones are advertised, surly we need to given better information. Like how does it perform in one year from purchase. What kind of problem will it pick up. How long does the battery last...I see it says battery life Good? 6hours is not good that's incorrect advertising.
2hour battery life is so bad I might as well be walking around with a back up battery that's the size of a brick

Good: Social Networking, Media, BBM

Bad: Everything else (Camera, Internet, SPEED, Internal memory

Comment: I've had this phone since last august. Now, before anyone wants to buy it, take this into account. This phone is uber slow. When I turn it on, it's slow, when I'm talking to my mates on BBM, it's slow, the camera is ridiculous, no flash, the internet's slow at the best of times... The memory is stupid. I have 3 apps. Facebook, Twitter and Whatsapp, because if I download anymore, it freezes and is slower than anything I've ever seen before. Even with all my media on my SD card, the phone is still really slow. And I'm a really fast person, I can't stand it. So don't get this phone, get one of the torches or bolds, just not this or the 8520 curve.

Good: music buttons,notification indicator, qwerty keyboard

Bad: trackpad, battery life, lack of apps, alarm,

Comment: bad phone. sent it off to repair 3 times in 3 months... only had the phone for technically 2weeks. the trackpad is really bad, if it gets wet, it becomes faulty, if your hands are oily, it becomes faulty, if you drop it accidently, it becomes fault.
Battery life sucks too, only lasts a day! (i use internet quite a lot and texting)
would not recommend.

Good: its an easy set up, you dont really need to use the instructions. the icons are big and its easy to use. also, blackberry messenger is good!

Bad: after a few hours it can become quite slow. you have to take the battery out and put it back in, this takes a few minutes to load. occasionally, the camera has broke(again, take the battery out!) the battery runs out very quickly! also, my phone charger has broke -_-

Comment: its a really good phone, but can sometimes be a bit slow, and takes a long time to re-load. the camera isnt very good quality but is decent enough. its easy to use, but the battery drains fast. for people who want a good, fast, quality phone, i wouldnt recommed this to them.
