  • @MakeupQueen1001 yes it also has the newest app world and bbm

  • @MakeupQueen1001 i think any of them does *-*

  • on the contract im getting it comes with 500mb data does that mean bbm comes fully installed already

  • How is facebook on this phone??

  • @shavaray go on the internet browser, and then type in facebook... the just download :)

  • I was thinking of getting a bb curve 8520 but it seems that its not worth it or am I mistaken?

    Anyone can give me a hint?

  • @FiatLover2011 if you can the phone itself for free and you just need a browser/facebook or w/e its worth it. but you need a data plan, period.

  • @Noxthechampppp Thanks a lot bro. Anyways, I went to see a friend that works for a phone carrier and he told me that for what I needed and wanted, an android phone was better.

    If I then end up going for a blackberry, I'll go for a better one and with GPS already.

    Take care.

  • moble

  • does it support facebook?

  • i bought this phone yesterday and i actually like it....BLACKBERRY OVER I-PHONE ANY DAY!!!

    

  • can you use bbm with wifi? pls answerr

  • @Beautystaa Some carriers let you use BBM over WiFi, BUT you need a BBM data plan for BBM to work period.

  • @MobileTechReview So you have to have a Blackberry plan for this phone to work? i want to buy this phone and i have Tmobile as a carrier.

  • @TheKimmy562 Yes, T-Mobile offers a BlackBerry plan for BB phones.

  • @MobileTechReview is this phone worth getting?

  • how do i set my bbm?

  • @boopizo Are you on pay as you go?

  • got this phone its ok it has edge gprs and wifi so its ok with web load and software is easy to use but its has no gps thats a bad point if your phone gets robed but if u install google maps that tracks your phone if you want it to.

  • I LOVE BLACKBERRY! <3 :)

  • i think im gonna get this phone. its only $30 here. pretty darn cheap for a blackberry.

  • All the people who diss the 8520, go and bumm the 8900, the 8520 is a great little phone for keeping in touch with family and friends.

    :)

  • @CollosalProductions1 fasho i agree, simple and it has its professional looks to impress other people :)

  • 8520's are shit.

  • This phone is garbage doesn't even have 3G lol instant piece of shit and apparently doesn't even have bbm? Get a real blackberry (not for you dumbfuck kids) or an iphone

  • @ImaPistuhL ... how deluded u are .. if ur gonna bash it then atleast speak facts... how rim make a blackberry smartphone without bbm.. that is one of its main attractions, that wouldnt even make any sense.. idk y people come online and say dumbshit like calling a entry-level phone garbage... it is meant to be underpowered, hence the price O.O

  • @shadowmane55 I meant there were troubles with bbm not working on it even with a data plan. So, is that all you wanted to say? "idk y people come online and say dumbshit like" everything you just fucking posted. It's a "smartphone" with no 3G and "one of its main attractions" which is actually it's only attraction, at times don't even work. This phone is literally nothing different from a sidekick, keyboard, EDGE connection(lmao), and camera.

  • @ImaPistuhL look... what ur saying is basically that entry level products shouldnt be made.. thts literally what the fuck ur trying to say right now.... i practically just explained why there is no 3g and other high end features.. it's meant for people who earn lower or just want to pay less... i understand that ur saying that the phone isnt as powerful as a bold or storm.. but it was never meant to be, so why bash it?

  • i fought she was reviewing tha 8520...all u heard was 8900 ^_^

  • Don't you get your phone for free with a contract in the US like you do here in the UK. I got my Curve 8520 free on T-Mobile UK on a 2 year contract :)

  • Ive bought this phone of a phone dealer but it has a rubber back. Is this normal or have I been conned?

  • @thoroughbredsftw you mean the flap for the battery? or the edge where the volume controls are?

    if the cover is rubber, than maybe.

    but if not, then no. it will be legitimate

  • Hey everyone im unsure whether to buy the blackberry curve 8520. Ive read many problems such as wifi, trackpad and messaging which has left me unsure. I would appreciate any replies. Thanks

  • shud i buy this phone

  • can everyone one stop saying fukin Tmoball its Tmobile god !

  • We get it ! you like the 8900 !

  • @MrSimonbru1 haha. I think she likes it more indeed.

  • is EDGE sort of 3G?

    (surf on internet outside)

  • @AvailableSkilz No, Edge is not 3G.

  • @MobileTechReview

    how do i internet outside without 3G ?

  • @MobileTechReview You can go on internet with it everywere and go on pingchat everywere?

  • @AvailableSkilz edge is like you use your mobile credits, so if your cellphone is you talk and then pay it's better, and 3G you pay wether you use it or not!

  • If on pay as you go can you use the web while outside? (Not in a wifi hotspot)

  • @sorrowrange7 Most prepaid carriers offer data plans, so yes, you can use data outside of WiFi range.

  • @MobileTechReview I'm getting mine on Orange pay as you go, so if I get a package e.g. dolphin is that okay?

  • @MisterAttie this

  • hii i have this phone i got it like 2 weeks ago and my alram clock isnt working. It worked for a bit then it just stoped. I have never droped it

    HELP

  • The shittest BlackBerry bar none. To go from the 8900 Curve, a nice solid feeling, phone to this preposterous 2.0 MP, cheap plastic, shit battery, 2G, crappy resolution screen marketed to be more "affordable", it's hardly an "upgrade". It's almost like this was the prototype but just released it anyway. All the chavs have this phone. *facepalm*

    And what's with the media keys?? I only want to lock the phone, everyone has an iPod.

    Upgrade date due, getting the HTC Sensation.

  • wait this doesn't have a GPS??? ohhh no, i can't have a phone without a GPS lol.

  • Does this mobile have some kind of tracking software?

    my old samsung had a software that sent some of my chosen buddies a sms when the thief put his sim-card into the samsung. then i could track him via his phone-number. does the blackberry have something like that? or some gps tracking?

    thanks for help!

  • @Marshall2603 yeah it actually does but instead of that just download a app from bb appworld and it locks your phone so even if ur sim card is taken out and they put theirs in they cant use thephone and you can track it

  • @Ralphaelplummer

    You obviously need your eyes tested,because there is and '' i '' in it.

  • WOW I DINT KNOW U COULD GET A BB IN AMERICA!!! CUZ IM FROM ENGLAND!!!!

  • gettin that monday

  • I've just got this phone today! x love it!

  • god i love it

  • I thought this was a Review? Not a comparison bewteen the 8520 and the 8900.

  • @TheMakeupLuver15 i think thats the bb tour

  • Get an iPhone...

  • Dude, comparing it to the 8900 all the time doesn't make me feel any better

  • @aoibheann111 When turning it off every night it lasts me around 4-5 days before the battery is completely drained :)
