have been looking for a flip phone and finally got one...though its CDMA am satisfied....wish a GSM would come soon in the same model. Watching videos, movies, wireless internet, etc all so cool...great phone ...m luving it :D
The best of its class phone form BB, as the above subjected if this phone have been a GSM. Then it would have been a different story for BB in India. Have discussed with may of my friends who are BB enthusiast such as me. They all have had the same opinion such as mine (about 150 ppl across India). Pls team BB take this as a consideration and re-release the same model with GSM and JAVA enabled smart phone. It will be a huge success.

Bought it for my father who was adamant about CDMA. since there are not many good phones in CDMA, I had to go for this. The phone looks very good. Outer Screen offers good functionality (reading SMS, quickly glancing through the call list / missed calls). The main screen is sharp and display is vibrant. Pros: [1] Good looks and form factors. [2] Easy for elders to type [full Qwerty KeyBoard] [3] Somewhat good App Support-Such as Whats App. [4] Surprisingly good camera with Flash and AutoFocus. Cons: [1] Utterly sluggish phone, takes ages to respond. [I read somewhere that it still relies on the older gen CPU that clocks at 600MHz] [2] Terrible battery life, some times dies with in few hours. [3] Crippled BB World, barely anything useful present. [4] No out of the box BB-Maps support. [5] BB OS6 could have been better. The phone is basically useless unless you have BB Internet Service. [6] Weird placement the Camera - Your finger will almost always block the camera. Go for it if you want a Keyboard CDMA phone that is stylish. Rest is all useless. The rating is for the looks only.
