| The Bottom Line | Though we're disappointed that the RIM BlackBerry Curve 3G didn't have more improvements over its predecessor, it's still a decent upgrade with the addition of 3G and GPS. Plus, it's quite affordable for an entry-level smartphone. | The RIM BlackBerry Curve 9360 makes a great entry-level offering for those already in the BlackBerry camp. | BlackBerry enthusiasts will love the BlackBerry Bold 9900, but its high price tag will be a deterrent to many. | The RIM BlackBerry Bold 9780 is a solid messaging smartphone and ships with the latest BlackBerry OS, but it's not necessarily worth the upgrade. | Basic specs |
