If your experience with Blackberry 7 is great in itself than your fine, if you want more for your experience then wait for Blackberry 10.
I believe for most of us, we DO want Blackberry 10!
But Blackberry 7 is still a great OS that should not be quickly abandoned as it can still be used for those that do not have a need/demand/desire for something like Blackberry 10.
By the way, I been looking at getting a Curve 9220 or Curve 9380 off of ebay while I wait for a good line up of Blackberry 10 phone's, and this makes a good cheap upgrade so I can be up there with everyone else using Blackberry 7.Last edited by AntL85; 06-13-12 at 07:05 AM.

06-13-12 04:58 AM - Pretty good review. They are sort of BB mad over there
Some seem pretty stoked about the 9220, and it probably does improve on the older 8520 (not sure about the camera though) Like the OP states, grabbing a lower cost alternative (and if you plan on upgrading to BB10) would free up some capital to grab a BB10 device when they come out, or allow you to hold off until your could upgrade your device.06-13-12 10:14 AM - It is a heavy improvement throughout except for the camera, it is still the same 2MP no flash from the 8520.Pretty good review.

The Curve's are nice phones and for me, the Bold has a comfortable keypad so on so forth that we all heard from people before, but the Curve feels good to and it caters to a wide selection of user's that the Bold does not. You get em with that 9370!

The Curve 9380 is the newest full touch and a great phone as well.I want one for some reason... That, and a Curve touch (forgot the model number). Though, that may only be because it's down right adorable
Both the Curve 9220 and Curve 9380 unlocked will work on ATT in the US. There is a bunch of them on Ebay right now that are unlocked and cheaper than retail price. The 9380 though is a full touch Curve that looks very similar to the Torch and runs very smooth for having lower specs. Also it has integrated keys and is a 3.2" screen where the Torch is 3.7".
From what I learned on the 9220 is it chugs harder and better then the Bold's do currently with extensive processes and has a JS1 battery. It is the same size etc as the JM1 but has a much higher battery life providing the 9220 and 9320 with 7 hours talk time. The 9380 has the same JM1 as all other's do. I'm actually surprised Kevin has not been on the JS1 yet considering it could(in theory) work in other Blackberries.
Hope this helps you decide what your looking for!Last edited by AntL85; 06-16-12 at 08:25 PM.
