BlackBerry Curve 8900 Review
(8900) Score: 39.3 / 100BlackBerry Curve 8900 is a low level BlackBerry cellphone, including a fast CPU running at 512 megahertz, a 2.4" screen and a 3.2 megapixels back camera. But it's time to get into much more details.
This phone is a little thick for current standards, with its 0.53 inches thickness. The BlackBerry Curve 8900 is 4.29" long, but it's only able to hold a way smaller 2.4" screen. Apparently Blackberry forgot about optimizing the weight in this 3.87 ounces cellphone.
Blackberry equipped this device with a good level 2.4 inches screen, and a 360 x 480 resolution, providing this cellphone with a very good graphic quality.
This device is equipped with a quite powerful 512 MHz processor.
This phone is only equipped with a 3.2 mega-pixels back camera. To complete the camera, it also counts with a couple of nice characteristics: auto-focus, flash and digital image stabilization.
This device provides wi-fi connection (but it can't provide it to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot) and 3G internet connection, supported by EDGE technologies. The BlackBerry Curve 8900 uses a SIM card to connect to GSM networks.
The BlackBerry Curve 8900 packs a 1400 mAh mid capacity Li-Ion battery providing this device with a quite short battery duration. This cellphone has an estimated talk time of 5.5 hs and a stand by time of 356 hs.
This phone is not a good choice considering it is sold for $ 269, while other similar cellphones can be found for much less money.
