can you keep the music on and text or email someone on this phone while music is playing in background? also can you type in all caps in a message email or text? thank you
Wow.... completely forgot I made this video! I've actually gone through two Blackberries since this one. I upgraded after two years with the Curve 8330 to the new(er) Curve, pure junk. On new years it literally overheated and killed itself. Got a replacement phone from a friend of mine, the BB Tour, lost it/it was stolen after a week of having it. Went back to the old Curve (the one in this video) and after a few months, I spilled soda on the keyboard and it's now a paperweight. iPhone 5 time!
@DanceForeverr1 it should be a theme option in your phones settings. Some of the new BB's don't come with this setting I don't think - honestly, I'm tired of Blackberry. When I did this review the phone was new and solid, now their phones are garbage. I'm going for the new iPhone when it comes out, that should be fun.
Haha thanks! I actually just gave up the blackberry curve, l had the same phone for 2 years and although it was great, I decided to get something else. I bought the HTC Eris because I was tired of waiting for the Nexus One, so I bought this and its wonderful.
@WeekendWarrior1210 hey man, i have a question... like the guy posted below, do u really have to pay a monthly fee if u have a blackberry rather than anyother phone? if so... how much do u have to pay?
im getting mine this monday odddddd hapyy i cant wait i want it so bad i will never give it to no 1 and great review mann....and this is the best phone !!
Hey everyone! I STILL haven't finished part 2 - :(
BUT - I believe there is a Curve 2 coming out for Verizon relatively soon and it has a trackPAD not a trackBALL. Look it up - I am sure there are other improvements!
you have o pay the monthly fee for the blackberry curve? what about the tour? do you have to pay the monthly fee for the blackberry tour too? and if yes, how much do you think one monthly phone fee would cost for the tour phone ?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
You are 15 and you don't know how to spell. It's so sad what is happening to children these days. I don't know who is to blame; the children themselves, the parents or the teachers. It's just embarrassing. Anyways, I digress, this is a great PHONE and you did a great and educational review.
ummm 1st of all i know how to spell i was in a hurry and meant to spell it that way asshole so before you start actin like your shit dont stink and think your better than everyone. check yourself cause u aint the shit.
awesome phone i bought it for my wife its more of a female phone im gonna wait 2 weeks and get me a verizon tour . this is by far the most advanced and sleek blackberry made it also is constructed better than other carries from what i noticed at cell phones stores . i still use my blackberry 7520 as a alarm clock with snooze. coming from a blackberry 8100 these new blackberry will overtake apple i phone in no time i wanna see a review for the tour from verizon someone plz post...btw lame review
i love my blackberry curve i have verizon and mine is pink. did you know that if your in your inbox and if you hit b you will go to the bottom of the inbox if you hit t it goes to the top :)
It is cool, and when you begin to stumble upon/install new applications and settings, you begin to love it even more. This reinforces that special you get when you first get the phone, the same feeling that seems to ware off with almost everything else.
So about ringtones- I have made all of mine online and then have just sent the ringtone to my phone through my e-mail address. Will this work with the Blackberry? Also, can you set different types of alerts for different people when they text you?
Fear, it should work, yes. Its funny you mention that, I had sent my phone via e-mail a bunch of songs but the messaged was "truncated" due to size, so I couldnt download anything. As for different types of alerts for different people, yes I am pretty sure you can. I don't have my phone right now, I left it in my truck which is in the shop!!!!
Yes you have to pay for internet and e-mail. This phone (the verizon version) does not have WiFi, but in some ways WiFi is somewhat useless because you are paying for the internet already and reception is pretty good.
ok thank you so much. to get the internet do u have to have a plan where u can get it for free and is it called web browsing. how much would u have to pay if u didnt have it in ur plan
my dad is currently with t mobile and our 2 yr contract ends in december. i really want a blackberry from verizon but he said i have to wait till the plan is up and i cant wait that long. Should i really wait until the plan is over then switch to verizon.
Hello. I was wondering if this phone VZN BB Curve 8330 can be unlocked. I am going to France next month and need to know if I will be able to use it there. Thx!
I really liked your video and your channel. If you need any help getting this video or channel exposed I use a site called tubeviews.(net) It has really helped like 20 of my main videos get to the top in position. Its nice.
THIS WORKS! Its amazing.. THANK YOU SO MUCH DUDE!!!!!!
you can have real ones, but theyre not free. u have to bluetooth them from some one elses phone, or buy them. then you can set it as your ringtone/text alert.
I've been lookin at the Curve for awhile, and i think i will be gettin it soon... Just had a few questions for u.. Can u set ringtones for txt messages? And if i have the Unlimited IN txt and 1500 out of network all i have to do is keep that and get the $30 Blackberry service? thanks
i have the voyager now and i have the premium plan so i already have internet and email included do i still have to pay the 25$? and i really want to get this phone it lookd awesome
Yes you will-but if you pay for email and internet for the voyager then they will not make you pay for that on TOP of the BlackBerry service. The phone is awesome!
BEST VIDEO YET!!! Really great job on the video considering you used your mac. By the way, i have an iphone, and i liked it at first, but im getting bored of it. It has terrible texting, and i text a lot. I noticed you talk about the monthly bill. You said $30 a month!! My bill is at least $70 a month and i dont have unlimited or free texting!! (JEALOUS)
I had mine for about 3 months and the other day my dog got ahold of it and chewed it all up and i'm getting my new one tomorrow. Only thing i don't like about this phone is i have to clean the screen ever so often.
Good for teens? I doubt it. This is a serious phone, it's not to be taken lightly, especially when you are paying more ON TOP of your bill each month. Good luck
hey do u have a shirt that sayz weekend warrior and it's like a football style shirt. in black with rainbow riting?!?!? cus like i have that shirt...!
I'm due for an upgrade for christmas, and im actually leaning towards this against the storm. The storm really disappointed me with its text input, is it is VERY poor...and that's really all I do. There is also a great storm theme out for the curve, and it looks quite impressive.
Absolutely, the storm (although I havent tried it) probably has a shitty text input because of the touch screen, there is just no getting around it. As for the curve, it provides the perfect balance of form and function.
The aim program is pretty cool, although I've had problems with it because it is third party software. I am sure their are better ones out there though.
The volume rocker I found is only useful when listening to music (3.5mm jack!) and when on a call, you can adjust the volume. You have to go into the phone to adjust the vibrate/settings and stuff, although you could probably set a shortcut key if it bothers you.
hey WeekendWarrior, i see that u posted this video over the summer, so how is the phone holding up? Do you still like it as much as when u first got it? Oh...and can u download AIM?
The phones is AWESOME so far. I like it more and more everyday, it never gets boring or old. It is just the best phone ever, I love it. I've named it and everything. You can download AIM programs, but not the AOL version, or so I think. What I mean is there are programs out there that you can use to log into your AIM account, but the programs arent directly form AOL. Good luck.
can you use windows media player music like wma format? because i have the enV and i can use wma format music which i find amazing, and can you use pictures from your micro sd too set as your wallpaper? please reply im debating on getting this phone
can you set it up so you can use your own email that you already have or do you have to get a whole new one for the phone?
also would it be worth it to get this over the storm or the dare? im not to sure a touch screen would be easy enough to text and email, even when you get used to it. but they are the new phones and curve has been around and yeah thats the only thing stopping me.
Of course you can use your old emails. You can use any email you want. I currently have 5 new and old emails connected to it. I've never used the dare (heard it sucks) and the touch BB would piss me off, I hate touch screens. Forget whats new, buy whats better.
i was going to get curve but they said i had to pay 30 bucks for internet so i couldnt get it and im bummed. =( and now if i wanna buy it its gonna be 600 dollars
Well the Pink one is really really girly. Silver is perfect for both men and women, I think. So then forget the Pink one, get Silver. Pink to me just means ultra daddies girl.
The browser actually is not that bad. You can use it for a while, and still have battery for the rest of the day. I usually charge the phone every other night, and thats after steady use throughout the day.
Nope, the Verizon BB Curve doesn't have WiFi, but you do not need it. E-Mail is sent over Verizons Wireless Network, so bluetooth and wifi have nothing to do with it. Let me know if you need more help on this.
dude i love you..your funny lol it sounds like you really love this phone im on the fence between a blackberry curve 8330 and a htc touch pro what would you suggest???
Well the HTC has the touch screen (obviously) if that seems like something you like or can live without compared to the monthly fee of the BlackBerry then I would go with the HTC. But I don't like how Verizon basically branded the Touch with their name, and not HTC. I find that annoying, but then again I am really picky.
Great Video. quick question, how would i get wallpapers on the curve? can i get wallpapers via options on phone, such as camera or can i get them on my phone? and will i be able to see such wallpaper if i just turn on my phone like any other phone?
You can get wallpapers on your phone a bunch of ways. The coolest way is to send them to your phone via BlueTooth, if you have it on a computer. You can also connect to other phones with bluetooth (at least blackberries you can) and transfer lots o' crap.
So, here are your choices.
1 - BlueTooth (the coolest way)
2 - E-Mail
3 - Text Messages
4 - I am sure there are other ways I just can't think of them.
Well you can try ordering the phone off of eBay or something like that, and then try to activate it with Verizon, but do not mention that it is a BlackBerry, and see what happens.
My last BlackBerry that same thing happened, I activated the phone without the internet service, but that was a while ago and Verizon is a bunch of greedy jew bags so they are going to do everything they can to get you to pay that monthly fee.
Pretty cool I like it here. It's a good place if you want, or enjoy city life. Although next year I will be going to Marist college because they offer more of what I want and its a beautiful school.
maybe because she wants to text? its also a good texting phone, just because you dont want internet on it doesnt mean that she cant get it. i mean when i get it im not only gonna have facebook and windows live for the internet. im basicly just gonna use it to text.
Right, but from what I was told that can't be done. You can't get a blackberry from Verizon without internet. Want's to text? Theres plent of phones out there with qwerty keyboards, not just the curve.
sorry. I made a mistake in the previous comment. Sprint does charge you for the email service. Like unlmimted is 39.99 a month. So I am looking at around 100$ a month including the basic plan. Do you think it will be a waste of money to just use blackberry as a phone since it costs about the same money as other phones?
thanks for the post. I am thinking about getting a curve 8330. But when I looked at both the sprint and verizon, sprint seemed much cheaper.. cause they don'

The aim program is pretty cool, although I've had problems with it because it is third party software. I am sure their are better ones out there though.

Nice review,im gettin this phone once they get some in stock (damn MTS), but is it really necessary to do what 1000's of people do....

What do you mean by "Is it really necessary to do what 1000's of people do..."?
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
allrite thanks
another question in the store on every curve the volume rocker doesnt do anything is that a setting ?
circadudexl 3 years ago
The volume rocker I found is only useful when listening to music (3.5mm jack!) and when on a call, you can adjust the volume. You have to go into the phone to adjust the vibrate/settings and stuff, although you could probably set a shortcut key if it bothers you.

hey WeekendWarrior, i see that u posted this video over the summer, so how is the phone holding up? Do you still like it as much as when u first got it? Oh...and can u download AIM?
StealthyWizard 3 years ago
The phones is AWESOME so far. I like it more and more everyday, it never gets boring or old. It is just the best phone ever, I love it. I've named it and everything. You can download AIM programs, but not the AOL version, or so I think. What I mean is there are programs out there that you can use to log into your AIM account, but the programs arent directly form AOL. Good luck.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
cool! thanks for the reply!

i got two questions..
can you use windows media player music like wma format? because i have the enV and i can use wma format music which i find amazing, and can you use pictures from your micro sd too set as your wallpaper? please reply im debating on getting this phone
kgee33 3 years ago
I believe you can, yes. Yes you can set the pics from the SD card as wallpapers.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
how do you change the icons from the bottom to the side like yours?
kkto78 3 years ago
This is just a menu option built right into the phone, I think it is the Zen theme.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
can you set it up so you can use your own email that you already have or do you have to get a whole new one for the phone?
also would it be worth it to get this over the storm or the dare? im not to sure a touch screen would be easy enough to text and email, even when you get used to it. but they are the new phones and curve has been around and yeah thats the only thing stopping me.
ZandaleeZalia 3 years ago
Of course you can use your old emails. You can use any email you want. I currently have 5 new and old emails connected to it. I've never used the dare (heard it sucks) and the touch BB would piss me off, I hate touch screens. Forget whats new, buy whats better.

can you send picture messages??

Picture messages, yes I believe so.

Can you block the internet on the phone?
xoliveyourlife 3 years ago
Block the internet on the phone? Why would you want to?
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
the menu style on your home screen is different from normal usually on the bottom how did u do that?
circadudexl 3 years ago
It's just an option on the phone, nothing special. I think its called Zen.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
So we cant get that phone without internet?
Katsurui 3 years ago
Nope, no phone without internet.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
i was going to get curve but they said i had to pay 30 bucks for internet so i couldnt get it and im bummed. =( and now if i wanna buy it its gonna be 600 dollars
sum10aboutu 3 years ago
i went to verizon store and they said we HAVE to pay 30 bucks a month no matter what so yeah..
do you think i should get the light pink one or the black/silver one?
im a girl ...but im not that girly so i don't know lol
Natch2013 3 years ago
Well the Pink one is really really girly. Silver is perfect for both men and women, I think. So then forget the Pink one, get Silver. Pink to me just means ultra daddies girl.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
lol ultra daddy's girl..nice ha ha
thanks for the suggestion
i will get silver yayyy! :)
thanks for posting this

when you use the browser, does it take up a lot of battery power?
tuesdaymorning63 3 years ago
The browser actually is not that bad. You can use it for a while, and still have battery for the rest of the day. I usually charge the phone every other night, and thats after steady use throughout the day.

just wondering, can you email via bluetooth, or does it have wifi
finfanjman 3 years ago
Nope, the Verizon BB Curve doesn't have WiFi, but you do not need it. E-Mail is sent over Verizons Wireless Network, so bluetooth and wifi have nothing to do with it. Let me know if you need more help on this.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
dude i love you..your funny lol it sounds like you really love this phone im on the fence between a blackberry curve 8330 and a htc touch pro what would you suggest???
nirvana2332 3 years ago
Well the HTC has the touch screen (obviously) if that seems like something you like or can live without compared to the monthly fee of the BlackBerry then I would go with the HTC. But I don't like how Verizon basically branded the Touch with their name, and not HTC. I find that annoying, but then again I am really picky.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
Hoooo I WANT IT SO BADDDDDDDD!!! :( I think Im going to go buy it tomorrow!!! :D that should make me really happy for a while!! hihi! :P

Great Video. quick question, how would i get wallpapers on the curve? can i get wallpapers via options on phone, such as camera or can i get them on my phone? and will i be able to see such wallpaper if i just turn on my phone like any other phone?
AlphaBlackMerc 3 years ago
You can get wallpapers on your phone a bunch of ways. The coolest way is to send them to your phone via BlueTooth, if you have it on a computer. You can also connect to other phones with bluetooth (at least blackberries you can) and transfer lots o' crap.
So, here are your choices.
1 - BlueTooth (the coolest way)
2 - E-Mail
3 - Text Messages
4 - I am sure there are other ways I just can't think of them.

Do you need internet with these phones?
johnsonreed1 3 years ago
Yes you need the internet with the blackberry from Verizon.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
I just want the phone, no internet, how much is it
DegrassiGirl4 3 years ago
Well you can try ordering the phone off of eBay or something like that, and then try to activate it with Verizon, but do not mention that it is a BlackBerry, and see what happens.
My last BlackBerry that same thing happened, I activated the phone without the internet service, but that was a while ago and Verizon is a bunch of greedy jew bags so they are going to do everything they can to get you to pay that monthly fee.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
Yeah I want to get one with verizon how much is the internet?
DegrassiGirl4 3 years ago
I'm paying around $25.00 a month, unlimited everything minus tethering.

How is Fordham i live in NY so im going to be looking into that school.
msherseykiss26 3 years ago
Pretty cool I like it here. It's a good place if you want, or enjoy city life. Although next year I will be going to Marist college because they offer more of what I want and its a beautiful school.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
Hi I am looking into verizon blackberry curve, do you have to have the internet on it? I really do not want it.
DegrassiGirl4 3 years ago
Yes I have the internet on it. You do or do not want it? lol.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
I do not want it.
DegrassiGirl4 3 years ago
No? Then why look into it?
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
maybe because she wants to text? its also a good texting phone, just because you dont want internet on it doesnt mean that she cant get it. i mean when i get it im not only gonna have facebook and windows live for the internet. im basicly just gonna use it to text.
kylebushey24 3 years ago
Right, but from what I was told that can't be done. You can't get a blackberry from Verizon without internet. Want's to text? Theres plent of phones out there with qwerty keyboards, not just the curve.
WeekendWarrior1210 3 years ago
thats why i dont have the gay Verizon, thats why im with Bell.
kylebushey24 3 years ago
sorry. I made a mistake in the previous comment. Sprint does charge you for the email service. Like unlmimted is 39.99 a month. So I am looking at around 100$ a month including the basic plan. Do you think it will be a waste of money to just use blackberry as a phone since it costs about the same money as other phones?
fuckgiwoo 3 years ago
thanks for the post. I am thinking about getting a curve 8330. But when I looked at both the sprint and verizon, sprint seemed much cheaper.. cause they don'
