Blackberry Curve 8520 Reviewed

Thanks DiGi and Nuffnang I was given a chance to review DiGi BlackBerry Unlimited Plan which comes along with a BlackBerry Curve 8520 Smartphone.

What does UNLIMITED means to you? For me it means.....[Click Here to check my previous post]

This time I am gonna share what I have discovered when using a BB. First of all is their Qwerty keypad, although it is kinda small at first use, I still can type faster and more correctly when compared to a touchscreen mobile phone.

Most symbols are already on the keypad

With the sufficient built-in flash memory [256MB], I can always watch video in smooth speed. Just like their design, smooth and curve. I like the speaker that comes along with dedicated MediaKeys which is at the top of the phone. It makes me easier to listen to my favourite music. Such as Music video above When Loes Take Over - David Guetta Ft Kelly Rowland.

BlackBerry Curve8520 is not a bad music player after all even though it is a smartphone =)

There are many new things for me to do when I start using BlackBerry. Not only I can always check updated email anytime, but also 24 hours stay connected on social media [FaceBook, Twitter +++]. Last time I can only play Facebook and Twitter at home using my PC, but now I can be anywhere to stay connected~! That's why I love DiGi BlackBerry Unlimited Plan.


Besides that, with their built-in BlackBerry Mesenger, I can "SMS" like usual to other BlackBerry friends without any charges because it was included in DiGi BlackBerry Unlimited Plan. [RM58/month] This means I can save more money with more friends using BB~!


I can even upload picture that I've snap using BlackBerry Curve and share with friends on Facebook =) Not only that, I have discovered a few apps that's fun to have!

UberTwitter - Another platform for you to stay connect with friends updates in 140 words. That's how I manage to see updates of Marion Caunter at anytime

One fun thing that I can do with BlackBerry is by using FourSquare App. I can Check-In at the place where I am currently located and unlock the city. If you are hardworking enough you can be the mayor by just check-in every time you spotted a new place~!

The other things that I have discovered is that I've tried to watch Youtube, 8TV TV Series on BlackBerry. However, due to BlackBerry Curve 8520 only support up to EDGE network, I can't get satisfied with the lagging video streaming.

Fortunately DiGi the smart guy came out with new DG Smart Plan using BlackBerry Bold 9700 which support HSDPA Connection~! It will be a lot faster compared to EDGE network =D



Tell you what? Starting from 3rd of March- 7 March 2010, you will able to get BlackBerry Bold 9700 for only RM1,299 during the BlackBerry Crazy Deals roadshow at Mid Valley Megamall. Go get one before the promotion ends~!

If you are not a heavy user, I am sure BlackBerry Curve 8520 Unlimited Plan would suits you as I am sure with this package it is not a problem to get latest update from your Email, Facebook, Twitter and much much more~! It is more than enough.

Have you made the smarter choice? You know which Telco provide the cheapest BB plan right? =)
