BlackBerry Curve 3G Review by Taylor
The Curve 3G is definitely the best of RIM's Curve line. However, they failed to improve greatly with it. Jumping from device model 8500 to 9300, you would expect a great deal of changes, but the only real change was internal with the capability to upgrade to BlackBerry 6 and a color change.
Pros:
- Cheap price tag ($79.99 with a two-year contract) makes the entry-level smartphone more affordable
- two nice color choices
- little to no lag
- media buttons on top provide for a good MP3 solution
- easily pocketable
Cons:
- All plastic casing
- Running BlackBerry OS 5.0
- the keyboard is a little wobbly
- 2.0 MP camera leaves room for improvement

BlackBerry Curve 3G 9300 Review
The BlackBerry Curve 9300 is definitely a lesser BlackBerry, but the price reflects that. The camera leaves much to be desired, the keyboard isn't the most comfortable thing in the world, and web surfing can be an exercise in frustration.

Blackberry OS 6 on the 9300 Curve 3G
When BlackBerry OS6 was announced, RIM let us know that only three v5 devices would be upgradable to v6, namely: Pearl 3G, 9650, and 9700. However, the then upcoming 9300 Curve 3G was specified as OS6-ready.

BlackBerry Curve 3G 9300
Using a BlackBerry Curve 3G 9300 is like "visiting an old friend," InfoSyncWorld.com's Mike Perlman says. Other experts agree, noting that it's almost identical to its predecessor, the Curve 8530, save for some feature upgrades.
Pros:
- Small and slim
- Wi-Fi calling capability
- Long battery life
Cons:
- Identical to older model
- Poor image quality
- Small selection of third-party apps
- Slow browser

Be wary of newegg and this product
Be wary of buying from this 3rd party supplier, unlike other online stores which gives proper support, Newegg doesn't care much about customer support.
Pros:
- Came in a sealed box - too bad not all parts are there
- see cons
Cons:
- USB cable that came with it was as USB -> Mini and not USB -> micro
- Can't charge the phone as well the hands-free 3.5mm stereo headset is missing
- Been given the run around by Newegg support and by Pdagiant.com.

Not worth it for internet uses
i am using this phone last 10 months. as i experienced is that Most of the Social network like Facebook is not working in this phone expect you buy the Blackberry service, which is expensive than local internet plan. you can not access App world without BB service.

For those who are familiar with Blackberry
I got it as a gift from my friend, as he upgraded to latest i-phone. He gave me after he used it thoroughly for some time. Phone still looked like out of the box. Camera takes decent pictures.

BlackBerry Curve 3G 9300 review Review
The BlackBerry Curve 3G 9300 is an uninspiring, but perfectly adequate, update to the Curve smart-phone range. Its 3G connectivity is a welcome addition, but a disappointingly unresponsive trackpad is a real letdown.
Pros:
- Great connectivity
- Dedicated music keys
- Will get updated to BlackBerry 6 OS
- Excellent email support
- Long battery life
Cons:
- Unresponsive optical trackpad
- Pretty boring overall
- Requires a BlackBerry contract
- Apps tend to be fewer and pricier than those of competing platforms
