Advantages: Quick and easy navigation

Disadvantages: Poor battery life

I was apprehensive about buying this phone after owning a blackberry curve and constantly finding myself throwing it across the room out of pure frustration but I decided to bite the bullet and give it a go.

I was pleasantly surprised by the new look fast navigation and especially the touchscreen! I was expecting nothing too good but the touch recognition is superb! The keys are extremely easy to type on even with my larger than life giantess fingers.

I kept on waiting for it to crash like my other blackberry, but it never failed! Although two weeks in of using it and charging it almost every night - smartphones eat battery power like crazy - it refused to charge, after several hours of agony it finally connected and the red light went on telling me it was charging 'Phew!' This is the only hiccup I've had so far

This Blackberry has a totally different system to the older Blackberry's, it's considerably faster, the camera is fantastic if you're a BB owner you'll know how terrible the camera's are but this one is great! Definitely Facebook and Twitter worthy which is great as uploading them couldn't be simpler! Of course there's Blackberry messenger or BBM which, again, is incredibly fast.

The phone's on the pricier end but if you can afford it and need a fast multitasking phone then this would definitely be a strong contendor!

Summary: A MASSIVE improvement to the usual -loading- older and slower Blackberry!
