The BlackBerry curve: organising your life one bit at a time!
Review with images

User recommends the product

Advantages Brilliant features, great look, popular, great for socialising, a good organisational tool
Disadvantages Fiddly controls, battery life

After having an imitiation BlackBerry for some time (see my other reviews), I decided it was time for a step up, and invested in a BlackBerry Curve 9360. What appealed to me about it was the look, and quite frankly, the fact that the handset was so popular; but I found it it was far more than just a pretty phone. Firstly, the basics. The model comes in a variety of colours but I chose black for a timeless feel. The handset is light and so very very slim, the display is very attractive and easy to navigate and you can tell it is pretty good quality. Some people may have a problem with the ... more

He Says He Loves My Curves 29/12/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages Slim sexy design, lots of great features, good for organising, great way of staying connected
Disadvantages Battery life, can freeze if you have too many apps

Hello! So I got this BlackBerry as an upgrade on my contract about a couple of months ago and I've never had a BlackBerry before so I was feeling really excited First Impressions Amazing! It is slim, sleek and extremely light and compared with my friend's BlackBerrys, I have to say this one is by far the most attractive. Compared to other Curve models, this is slim and robust - the buttons on other Curves tend to become loose whereas on this model the buttons have remained firm and in place. The only downside is the back of the phone. It does feel kind of cheap compared to Bold models which ... more

Blackberry Curve 9360 29/01/2012

User recommends the product

Advantages Fantastic new technology, simple menu navigation, beautifully designed.
Disadvantages I will never know how it stands up to an iPhone as I havn't used one!

Having owned a Blackberry 8520 for almost two years I decided to renew my contract and chose a Blackberry Curve 9360 as an upgrade (October 2011). Retailing at around the £250 mark for a Sim-free Blackberry 9360 I got my Smartphone for free as I am on contract with Orange. In comparison to the 8520 the only aesthetic differences are that the 9360 is slimmer and it has a dark grey band of colour around the top edge to contrast well with the entirely black body. The image shows the white version - this model is available in black and also white. Some of the main selling points for me are the 5 ... more

Blackberry Curve 9360 - Cheap and worthwhile
Review with images
10/03/2013

User recommends the product

Advantages High quality Camera; Attractive design; Many features included and downloadable; Useful on the go
Disadvantages May be difficult to use for inexperienced people; Applications can cause it to slow

I received this phone for free on an £11 a month contact from 02, which includes 100 minutes, 500 texts, and 1 Mb of data. As of yet, I have not went over this limit. Therefore I feel it is good value for money. The phone is available in several colours, of which I chose a purple design. I liked that this was feminine and stood out more than black or white designs. The phone is also thin and light, which makes it easy to handle. There are many features included with the Blackberry 9360. These include things such as a: * 5 mp Camera with flash; * Video camera; * Mp3 Player; *Internet capability ... more

the Blackberry - an average smartphone that could be a lot better 28/10/2012

User recommends the product

Advantages great reception, great communication device, wonderful battery
Disadvantages not exactly a smart phone, not exactly a basic phone.

The Look and Feel This phone is quite good looking for a blackberry - basically it's black, slightly curved and sort of nearly glossy. which is great if you like that kind of thing. But the problem is, even if you do like it, it's not going to stay like that for long. It's prone to scratches on the backplate, and the metallic strip running round it's edge. The screen is approximately 40% of the phone's size, and again is quite nice to start with, but prone to scratching very easily. As far as feel goes, it actually feels quite comfortable in your hand. a bit smaller than the average smartphone ... more

WHY BLACKBERRY WHY!!!! 28/06/2012

User doesn't recommend the product

Advantages GOOD LOOKING PHONE AND THIN AND COMPACT
Disadvantages SLOW, UNRESPONSIVE AND RUBBISH BATTERY LIFE

On my 18th birthday I was really excited to be getting my first contract phone. Went into the o2 shop and purchased a Blackberry curve 9360 in black and at first I was really excited to get going and use it. Its 3g (at times) but this was rare as it mostly said GPRS which usually made my internet either be really slow or didn't work at all. There is no extra features on this model apart from it being thin which IS NOT a good thing at all, the battery over heats it's self all the time which means the battery life lasts about 3-4 hours before it needs re-charging this wasn't good for me as I was ... more

The Blackberry Curve 9360 - A Good Phone, Not A Great One 07/09/2012

Advantages Attractive design, fast text and email services, good camera and social networking abilities.
Disadvantages Battery life, freezes frequently, lack of apps.

As the first Smartphone I have owned, I was not sure what to expect from the Curve 9360. I decided to fork out more for the 9360 than the 9300, or the now ancient 8520, as the 9360 is supposed to be faster, lighter, and easier to use. I have to be honest, this is a phone with many good points, overshadowed at times by a few (yet very obvious) bad points. Firstly, with regards to the design - it is far sleeker and easier on the eye than previous variants of the curve. The exterior shell does scratch easily, so I would advise the purchase of a cheap case, but these can come in aesthetically ... more

Blackberry Curve 9360: Introduction: Blackberry is a specific brand of various mobile phones that are often know for their 'QWERTY' keyboards and their sleek designs. Throughout the past few years Blackberry have been upgrading their software and have been developing new designs for future opportunities. Blackberrys were not really a source of popularity when they first started however after the 'Blackberry Curve 8520' prices and stocks piled up. This then encouraged Blackberry to introduce much more similar phones but with various changes to them. Features and Facts: One of the most recent ... more

I love my Blackberry Curve 9360 - Great choice! 02/12/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages slimline, good looking smartphone
Disadvantages Battery life

I decided to upgrade my Blackberry to this version the BlackBerry Curve 9360 and am very glad I did! I had a Blackberry Curve before, an older version. In my opinion the BlackBerry Curve 9360 is alot quicker to use, especially using apps such as Facebook and Ebay. The phone itself is very slim and light, camera is great and also has a flash (my last phone didnt). Picture quality is high. I did purchase a silicone type case for this phone, as it is so slimline it does seem more breakable than my last handset. This makes it easier to grip. Also you have to be careful when choosing a case for ... more

BlackBerry Curve Swerve 26/10/2011

User recommends the product

Advantages *Looks good *Downloadable apps *Reliable name
Disadvantages *Bad battery life *Small keys

Appearance The appearance of the BlackBerry Curve 9360 is very good, with a neat layout and touchpad scroller. Useability The touchpad scroller loses it's touchability after a while so that is one thing that needs to be replaced. Also the keys are quite small so it is hard to type. The screen, however, is easy to read and you can set out your own layout and formats. Battery In my opinion the battery life is the thing that lets it down most. To start with it lasts almost a week without having to be charged and now I find myself charging it every night and still find it running out during the ... more
