It rocks!
By Kaushik Lodh
Hello,
I am surprised to read the other reviews of this great product.

Firstly, let me attest, this is a new Blackberry curve 8330 in mint working condition.

Yes, when it came it did not have a lot of features etc on it, like apps, ability to set up multiple emails, etc. I had to just call Verizon to set it up, and they made me update the software on it, and everything was all set in seconds. It had ability to set up several emails, had a browser, camera, video recorder, media player, voice memo recorder, some basic games, blackberry messenger, memo pad, alarm clock, ability to set my own ring tone (which I cant do on my iPhone), etc.

1) Myths from reviews:

- Yes it is a CDMA phone, not a GSM phone. So to the spanish writer's comments, if you cant read english, then thats not the product's or the seller's problem. It clearly states in the description "Verizon Smart phone" and Verizon is CDMA>

- It doesnt have a browser! LOL. yes it does have a browser! It's browser is Blackberry browser for smart phones, nothing like what you can expect in a Motorola Droid or an Apple iPhone, but it does have a working browser. I checked it, went to google, amazon and a host of other sites.

2) What it doesnt have:

- Facebook app
-Youtube app
-Fancy schmancy apps.
-SD card slot
-GSM card slot

3) Who is it for:

-For a person who wants a functional smart phone with robust email capabilities, good quality voice quality on phone calls.

4) My personal take:

For $35 you are getting one hell of a deal here. It is a Verizon Blackberry Curve 8330. If you want to see real reviews, look up the grey colored 8330 curve which has 4.5 stars in 50 reviews.

The reviews here (till Nov 6th 2011) have been by 3 non-english speakers and one questionable source. Sadly all of them are bogus and ill-informed.

You get a discounted price on this one because the color is pink. But apart from the color, it is one hell of a phone that I actually prefer over my iPhone 4 which I have from work.

I have a tendency to lose phones, and this phone was meant for being a work horse, no worries phone that I wouldnt care too much if I lost. Dare I say, it meets / exceeds my expectations!

All in all, dont worry, purchase with confidence.

Thanks,
Kaushik.

Awesome phone for the price!!!
By Irish_19
I have never owned a BlackBerry and I am extremely impressed with this phone. This phone is great! I just got it delivered today and I am in love with it. I love that it tells you when you have a text message by the flashing red light. The camera on this phone is amazing and it has zoom too! The pictures look like they are professional!

Listen to me
By BrokeCollegeKid
So I bought the phone because my droid eris with verizon suddenly stopped working (not gunna lie i am a clutz & dropped it a million times but thats besides the point) so it was a bit of a downgrade...HOWEVER this little thing is mighty powerful.
It does require a data package not a SIM card CDMS w/e...I've had it for about a week and have already dropped it twice and it worrks might fine :) Deffinitely worth buying it came brand new in the box with just a charger no scratches or anything. I will post a review later on with regards to how it is doing. ALSO it DOES HAVE A WEB BROWSER the thing is you need to go to the blackberry market and install it. I have a browser and a bing application. You can download games and such the only thing that is somewhat of a bummer is that i don't get emotion-cons. If anyone knows how to get them please let me know.
I did do some shopping around and was very skeptical about buying a phone off amazon...i went to ebay, and other reputable sites but amazon deffinitely offers a great price and fast shipping. I mostly use it to text and i love the QWERTY keyboard because i am a fast typer. works great, no complaints to date! Too see the price

The Storm 2 is a pretty good phone
By T. Ehlert
After experiencing problems with the original Blackberry Storm, Verizon eventually upgraded me to the Storm 2. I have to say that, for the most part, I have been satisfied with this phone. The touchscreen keyboard is only functional for me when it is in the wider landscape mode. When I try to type in the portrait mode, my fingers cannot hit the correct keys simply from the standpoint of spacing. The keys are just too close together. The one issue I experience consistently is when I try to hit the "a" button I instead get a "q" which I do find frustrating. From the standpoint of overall ease of use, this phone is pretty simple to operate. A good number of apps are available including internet based radio from Slacker, Pandora, and i-Heart radio. You can use an aux cable to connect the phone to your car's radio and play these stations through your sound system. The calendar function, contacts, and e-mail all work extremely well on this phone. Occasionally, the phone does freeze which requires a soft reset by removing the battery. For whatever reason, these issues seem to have been minimized over the past six months or so. After a somewhat rough start with the Storm line of phones, I would now have to say that I do enjoy the Storm 2.

June '11: As an update, I continue to use the Storm 2 and it has now been better than a year. Like most Blackberry devices, it does a wonderful job with e-mail. If you have multiple e-mail accounts, it is simple to add each to your phone. This in itself has made my life much easier. From the standpoint of downloading free apps, I have recently experienced difficulty with two new apps. In short, after downloading each, my phone gets stuck on the agreement screen where you have to check the box. I solved this problem by deleting the apps. My guess is that one of the Blackberry updates does not work well with these apps or I have a conflict with an old one. Like anything Blackberry, I do find that these devices are simply not very intuitive. Instead, you almost have to think in a Blackberry sort of way and I do find that frustrating. For example, if you would like to make a simple change to your phone's settings, you really have to spend a few minutes playing around with the Options menu to figure out how to do this. With all of this said, sometime next year I do plan to switch to a new phone and it probably won't be a Blackberry.

The phone I bought from Mojos Closet was suppose to new.....it's Not
By Eliyah Ben Yehudah
I bought what was supposed to be an unlocked blackberry storm 2 from Mojos Closet. When the phone arrived and on inspection the phone was not new, it had a verison number and was defective and no manual. I spent over $400 USD and I am without a proper phone. This was my worst experience and I intend to take this matter to Amazon for a resolution. I contacted Mojos Closet all I received was a rude and disrespectful feedback. I will not recommend Mojos Closet ever again if this is the service granted.
