Blackberry curve vs. blackberry pearl?

Question

i'm getting a new phone soon, but i cant decide between the blackberry curve and the blackberry pearl... does anyone like one better than the other..and why? and, whats the name of the new blackberry that's coming out soon? thanks

Answer 1

I have heard from a lot of people that the Curve is a piece of junk.  A girl that worked in our office had one and was always having problems with it (don't remember what kind because I barely paid attention to what she was saying) and now my boss got one and after only a month had to get another one.  It wouldn't turn on and stay on.

I just got the Pearl 8110 and I've never had a phone like this before.  Just usually get whatever cool phone the company I use has but nothing with internet.  I reeeeaaalllly like my phone but I've only had it a week so if any problems are to come I don't know.  It's smaller than the Curve and fits better in the hand but the keyboard is smaller as well with keys sharing letters unlike the Curve's full keyboard but not a big deal, with anything new you just have to get used to it.

I got my phone on sale for a hundred bucks too so I'm happy about that :)

Answer 2

I have used the Curve (8320) and the Pearl (8100, 8120) and liked both of them. I am currently using the Pearl 8120 and like it just for the size. The Curve is great too because it has the full QWERTY keypad and larger screen. But I really like the size of the Pearl. The Pearl 8120 also comes with video recording, which is a plus. The Curve models 8300, 8310 and 8320 will have video recording soon, too, after an operating system update.
