Product ReviewsBlackBerry Curve 8520 - Black (Tesco) Smartphone

Good value and a good introduction to the world of Blackberry smartphones

This is a good little phone and I bought it for my teenage Son who has always wanted a decent smart phone. It's build quality is not as good as the more professional models like the Bold 9000 series because it's mostly made of plastic; but underneath it's still a blackberry and has most of it's bigger Sisters features. The rest of my family use Nokia's like the N5 and E70 series and to be honest the Nokia's offer better features, applications, it's easier to use/understand and the build quality is better. Putting that aside, if you want a Blackberry but can't or don't want to pay £200 - £300 (especially if it's for a teenager)then this is definitely the phone to buy; but do buy a gel case for it as it's not likely to survive being dropped on the floor.Read full review...
