After being desperate to own a blackberry, i took the plunge to buy the Blackberry 8800. I had never owned a blackberry before but the brand has been so well publicised across the world, i felt it was time to give one a go! So i ordered it locked to vodafone and started my use. The screen was nice and big and bright. Looking at images was a pure delight on the big wide screen. The lack of camera was quite strange as i had become rather accustomed to having the convinence, but i have to say it wasnt missed too much. Sound quality was VERY good i thought: nice clear sound (although sometimes came across slightly tinny). The only thing i felt this phone was lacking in was a nice looking UI! It felt a bit old fashioned and not terribly user friendly. But you do get used to it after a few days. One of my favourite features has to have been the way text messages were layed out like conversations rather than starting a new message. So overall i thought this phone was a definate sucess in my books but could do with a better UI :D

While features and speed initally impressed, i can't say i was blown away by the ergonomics and quickly decided to return it for the more familiar feeling 8310. The keyboard is "tight" and the buttons, whilst larger, have a raised centre making fast typing harder than on the smaller keyboard of the 8310.

its a really nice quality phone and ok sometimes but this is my 4th one like this and all it does is freeze up and automatically delete my text messages and my call log. so ive just decided to deal with it!

my 1st blackberry which was given to me for my dead xda orbit by o2. after a disappointing start I am beginning to warm up to it. The xda had so many features but did glitch or freeze quite a bit. The 8800 is less featured but a very smooth operator and much better looking too.emailing and texting is 100% but the gps is a let down after using copilot on the xda. Hopefully this one last longer than 10 months....

The phone really good. I am in touch with my customer all the time. The e-mail works perfectly. I don't have to go to office or connect my laptop to WiFi to chec my mail. Any place I have been so far no problem. it is a business phone.
