The BlackBerry Curve 8520 from Research In Motion sits neatly in the BlackBerry entry level range and offers up several features without putting a dent in your wallet reports t3 who have just given the BlackBerry curve 8520 a review.
Unfortunately the BlackBerry Curve 8520 shouts “average” as soon as you pick the handset up unlike the BlackBerry Bold which shouts “quality.” The BlackBerry Curve 8520 loses the chrome detailing and opts for a plastic back and rubber trim, but it does have a nice size on its side.
However a couple of feature let the BlackBerry Curve 8520 down a tad, the constant reloading and zooming can be a bit of a pain along with some dodgy rendering and of course the absence of 3G although there is WiFi. But all in all the BlackBerry Curve 8520 is a recession friendly handset with a reasonable £25 monthly tariff.
