is my 8830 we a 3g phone ??

I'm coming back to my 8830 after having the storm for a few months , wasn't a huge fan of it. My 8830 is currently getting a 1XEV signal and on the back of it says cdma 3G. I was under the impression this wasn't a 3g phone but truth be told the storm browser and opera on the 8830 there is no difference in speed. So is it 3G ?????
