They couldnt do anything with the phone because it was set up to only get texting and calls.

It rocks!
By Kaushik Lodh on November 6, 2011

Hello,
I am surprised to read the other reviews of this great product.

Firstly, let me attest, this is a new Blackberry curve 8330 in mint working condition.

Yes, when it came it did not have a lot of features etc on it, like apps, ability to set up multiple emails, etc. I had to just call Verizon to set it up, and they made me update the software on it, and everything was all set in seconds. It had ability to set up several emails, had a browser, camera, video recorder, media player, voice memo recorder, some basic games, blackberry messenger, memo pad, alarm clock, ability to set my own ring tone (which I cant do on my iPhone), etc.

1) Myths from reviews:

- Yes it is a CDMA phone, not a GSM phone. So to the spanish writer's comments, if you cant read english, then thats not the product's or the seller's problem. It clearly states in the description "Verizon Smart phone" and Verizon is CDMA>

- It doesnt have a browser! LOL. yes it does have a browser! It's browser is Blackberry browser for smart phones, nothing like what you can expect in a Motorola Droid or an Apple iPhone, but it does have a working browser. I checked it, went to google, amazon and a host of other sites.

2) What it doesnt have:

- Facebook app
-Youtube app
-Fancy schmancy apps.
-SD card slot
-GSM card slot

3) Who is it for:

-For a person who wants a functional smart phone with robust email capabilities, good quality voice quality on phone calls.

4) My personal take:

For $35 you are getting one hell of a deal here. It is a Verizon Blackberry Curve 8330. If you want to see real reviews, look up the grey colored 8330 curve which has 4.5 stars in 50 reviews.Read more ›

This can be a good phone if ordered from the right people.
By Raina on February 10, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
I've read over a lot of reviews, and spent about three days trying to decide if I wanted to purchase this phone or not. Eventually, I did, and it's a pretty good little phone. I've noticed a lot of negative reviews are from those that ordered this that live outside of the country (CDMA doesn't work there), those that don't understand that this phone doesn't come with a slot for an SD card, or don't understand that this is a VERIZON phone and that the company doesn't use a "sim" card.

Also, anytime you purchase anything from a seller on Amazon, you really need to check out the reviews for that business. My rule of thumb for electronics is that I rarely, if ever, buy anything used, and the seller that I choose has to have a 97%-100% positive rating. 95/96% is pushing it, but sometimes if there are no other options, such as with this item, I'll select one with these ratings. Also, never ever EVER buy a cell phone or other electronic device refurbished or used from these business on amazon; it's too much of a risk.

I ordered this phone "new" from a company that had a 96% rating, with over 17,000 reviews. It sounds like some people have either bought used or refurbished phones, phones that aren't from a company with a 95-100 satisfaction rating, or a combination of both.

I've had this phone for about a month now with no issues. I had a Droid Incredible that was knocked out of my hand, cracking the screen and causing it to "act up" some. Not wanting to risk being phoneless, I ordered this one to hold me off until my contract is up next year. So far, it's a good phone. Takes a little getting used to, but it's good.

1- it DOES have internet; once you activate it, it should update itself within an hour or two.Read more ›

Awesome phone for the price!!!
By Irish_19 on November 16, 2011

I have never owned a BlackBerry and I am extremely impressed with this phone. This phone is great! I just got it delivered today and I am in love with it. I love that it tells you when you have a text message by the flashing red light. The camera on this phone is amazing and it has zoom too! The pictures look like they are professional!

Love my BBerry Curve & its Qwerty keyboard!
By EBeth on April 1, 2013
I have had 2 Blackberry Curves & 1 Blackberry Bold. I LOVE THE QWERTY KEYBOARD! The BBerry Bold I gave away because it was longer & thinner and, with a hand deformity, I could not really use it as well as the 8330. And, the 8300 fits so well in your pocket- unlike the larger smart phones which are so prevalent now.
I do not understand why the 8330 series was replaced & is so hard to find. They are small enough, chunky enough, for me to hold & type, take pictures, text, etc. with one hand while walking my dog. The Touch Screen keyboards are absolutely awful and every blog I have looked at has people wishing they still had their Qwerty keyboard. Why is it that a bunch of techno geeks, using multi-media, are able to influence the entire smart phone industry?
Not everyone wants multiple apps, not everyone wants a cell phone that is large enough to be a netbook, not everyone wants a smartphone that takes 2 hands to use.
The majority of people want a smartphone that they can use to talk, text, & receive eMails as well as take pictures. Since I love to take pics on my hikes and nature walks, I purchased a 32 Gig micro disk which I haven't begun to fill up.
The move toward larger, slimmer, touch phones is OK for those people, particularly young people, who have nothing better to do than stay on the phone, on Facebook, texting, trying out the lastest apps, etc. For real people, aka adults, the practicality of the 8330 is unbeatable! And- contrary to some of the reviews- it most definitely does video!
