Is the Blackberry curve or torch any good ?

Probably better to stick with 02 as we get decent coverage around here

Needs to be good for emails and web access



Any help appreciated as i'm a numpty with mobiles


As always thanks in advance for any help

If your used to the iphone, upgrade to one of the later Iphones They have come on a fair bit since the 2g

Don't get a blackberry, newer iPhone or Samsung galaxy, just don't get a blackberry!

Sony xperia s. I was choosing between a Iphone 4s/galaxy s2 and everything else, went for the new sony.

I didn't like the Samsung S2 when I looked at it - nothing wrong with it, just didn't click with me.

I love my iPhone 4 (my first iPhone, had it since about August). I reckon if you're happy with the iPhone, just go for the latest one, if you don't like it, then there are now plenty of alternatives. Sony as mentioned above seem to have refreshed quite nicely?

As above, my girl friend had a iPhone4 but has now just got galaxy s2 which seems good but don't know for emails though and seems quite big, ok for a bag but may be not to keep in pockets. Daughter has a blackberry nothing but trouble and limited aps

I,ve got a blackberry, great for emails and as a phone then unfortunately it all goes downhill.

Blackberry have lost their way I'm afraid.

dont go blackberry, just moved Android on a sony Xperia pro as so frustrated with the torch. After a few years of blackberrys they have just not moved on, Android kicks its arse.

Never used anything else, but very happy with my basic HTC.

I have a company provided Blackberry Torch great for email and BB messenger (so my son says) but for evertything else it is carp compared with my wife's Samsung Galaxy S and son's Galaxy Ace. Latest Iphone's are great toys but at a price.

I have an iPhone and a galaxy ace (work phone). I always go to my iPhone for stuff. I find android really glitchy, (had it one week) ive had to search twice on google why the phone won't do something it's supposed too, whereas the iPhone just does it no questions asked.

Best buy is still the Orange San Francisco buy it PAYG from Orange and then unlock it for free for any network. Upgrade the OS to a debranded Android 2.3.5 and you have a cracking unlocked any network Android phone for less than £100.

Wifey has an iphone (she's hooked on the whole "apple" thing) and swears by it.
I've got HTC with android and think it's great.
We use Blackberry's at work and I wouldn't rate them.
.....i'm waiting to see that the next generation of Windows phones bring before upgrading my HTC.
