  • The RIM BlackBerry Curve 8310 adds GPS capabilities to the already impressive and sleek messaging smartphone. You also get a 2-megapixel camera, Bluetooth, and good call quality.
  • The Curve 8310 doesnt offer Wi-Fi or 3G support. The Web browser isnt the sleekest, and the camera lacks video-recording capabilities. Also, unlike the T-Mobile version, you get only the proprietary BlackBerry Messenger IM client.
  • Still offering an attractive design and excellent messaging capabilities, the addition of GPS makes the RIM BlackBerry Curve 8310 an even more attractive choice for road warriors.

  • Built-in GPS; slim; good features
  • No 3G or Wifi; sat nav has limited functionality
  • The sat nav can be useful, but it’s no substitute for a dedicated device

  • great QWERTY keyboard, lightweight, spell check, push e-mail
  • EDGE network, disappointing camera, no Wi-Fi
  • The RIM BlackBerry Curve is yet another offering from the leader in messaging devices. And, as with all BlackBerry offerings, it is the incomparable quality of the messaging features that will maintain devout loyalty. Exceptional detail is paid to the...

  • Inbuilt GPS, Full QWERTY formfactor, Large and bright screen
  • No WiFi or 3G, Short battery life, Sluggish processor
  • With the addition of GPS the BlackBerry Curve 8310 is an incremental upgrade, although were still waiting for 3G connectivity.

  • Style and design, trackball and keyboard, ease of use, built-in GPS, Vodafone Compass software
  • No 3G, no Wi-Fi, GPS data sometimes sluggish over GSM network The Final Word The BlackBerry Curve 8310 adds GPS to an already enticing unit. Its only real drawbacks are the lack of Wi-Fi and 3G connectivity.

  • RIM adds extra radios in the form of either GPS or Wi-Fi (but not both) to the businesslike Curve and manages to make them more useful without losing the trademark excellent battery life. Without UMA arrangements from the mobile operators though, Wi-Fi...

  • Excellent keyboard and trackball; good screen; built-in sat-nav
  • No Wi-Fi or 3G support; basic navigation
  • Its a shame that the RIM BlackBerry 8310 lacks Wi-Fi and 3G support, but with its slick design, full Qwerty keyboard and excellent messaging software, the handset is still an impressive mobile for emailing. And while the GPS functionality might be ra...
