This review is from: BlackBerry 8520 T-Mobile Pre Pay Mobile Phone - Black (Electronics)
I bought this blackberry on a whim really, Id never had one before. i wish Id done more background checks into them now to be honest. It does the job its designed for admirably, which is pushing emails. However, GPRS data conection. What year are we in now? Its unbelievably slow at times, and gives up at others. If you hope to use things like facebook, then dont bother with this its far too slow. You can use Wireless connections but the built in software seems to limit the speed of this too. No its not the wireless speed, its the phone software.
Another shortfall would be the lack of GPS I downloaded a security program for it from BlackBerry app world, but it requires GPS to work so that was a waste of time. also the maps need it to run efficiently, which is another thing, they do work somewhat over the GPRS network using the phone masts, but I was placed approximately 18 miles away on two occasions while using the my location facility!! Hardly accurate!
i give it 4 stars because it is a really useful tool, it just lacks in some areas. I should have done more research before buying really but I'll know now what to buy in the future.
