Everything is simple with Blackberry!!!
Blackberry phones are smartphones that provide a range of features such as internet access, email access, navigation using maps, organizer, multimedia applications, games and mp3 player.
Blackberry Curve 8300 is a great phone for people who travel frequently and need to stay in touch with others anywhere and anytime. It is an ideal device for businessmen to keep track of or to manage their businesses while on the move.
Design: The lightweight, sleek and curvy design makes the 8300 attractive and fun to use. The QWERTY keyboard is ideal for typing in the emails and messages( Sms) quickly and efficiently. The spacing between the keys is sufficient and comfortable for every user irrespective of their finger width. The trackball on top of the keyboard is soft and convenient to use. It is mainly used like a joystick to navigate across the menus.
Display: Blackberry curve 8300 has a large 320 by 240 display. The good thing about the display screen is that the brightness adjusts itself according to the environment.
Features: Blackberry curve 8300 comes with bluetooth connectivity, multimedia player that supports various media files, spell check feature (I personally like this one), 2 megapixel camera that produces quality photos, USB connectivity (phone can be charged with USB too!!) and a lot more applications softwares that are pre-installed. Blackberry curve 8300 has an excellent battery backup which goes up to around 10 hrs (talktime).
The sound quality of Blackberry 8300 is excellent even on loud speakers. There is a memory card slot with can support cards with up to 4 GB memory space.
Now let me start with the cons in Blackberry curve 8300:
The price is too high. There are many phones by nokia, Sony Ericsson, Moto etc. that offer more features in this price range.
Unfortunately, Blackberry 8300 curve does not support video recording which other phones in this price range do.
Blackberry 8300 does not support wifi. Without wifi support internet speed is compromised. I guess the next model of blackberry does support wifi.
Even though Blackberry 8300 has several cons, I believe the pros outnumber the cons. Overall it is a great phone with all the necessary feature.
Summary: I thinks its a great phone but the price tag is an eyesore. Consumers can buy phones with better feature in the price range. But the standards that Blackberry sets is uncomparable. It is a complete business phone and I recommend it to people who travel a lot and need to stay connected. Go for a Blackberry 8300, you wont regret it !!

1.BB phones emit more radiations than NOKIA phones.
- No separate list for missed calls, received calls and dialed calls. Searching for a particular call in the common call list is cumbersome.
