BlackBerry Curve 8300 / 8310

The BlackBerry ® Curve™ 8300 Series of smartphones are one of the smallest BlackBerry ® smartphones to feature a full QWERTY keyboard that is optimised for fast, accurate typing.

Within the clean lines and soft edges the BlackBerry ® Curve™ 8300 Series smartphones have large, high-resolution screens so you can surf the net, view pictures, play your favorite games or watch a downloaded video clip in bright vivid colors.

The BlackBerry ® Curve™ 8300 Series is a slimmer and shorter phone than the 8800, however it is still equipped with the popular ‘pearl’ trackball for better navigation and now has a significantly improved integrated speaker.

You can capture the moment and share your pictures via email or picture messaging (with an activated data plan). The BlackBerry ® Curve™ 8300 Series smartphone gives you a 2.0-MP camera with digital zoom and a built-in flash.

Designed to deliver an incredible mobile multimedia experience on the go, the media player supports the playback of most popular file formats which means you can watch video clips in clear, vivid color and listen to your favorite songs without missing a note.

Following close behind the very recently launched BlackBerry 8800, the new BlackBerry Curve 8300 series has all the potential to be another very popular Blackberry mobile phone.
