RIM excels in a lot of stuff, but keep secrets is not really a party. We knew so much about the BlackBerry Curve 8900 (born Javelin) long before it makes its appearance at the operator AT & T. It is an improved version of the Curve on all fronts: lighter, more compact and more powerful, it breathes the phone designed in 2008. Here are our first impressions on the BlackBerry Curve:
Hull
This is a successful Curve. Slightly more, it is also more compact, with less wasted space around the screen and keys. The lines are sharper, and the phone looks more successful, like a sports car next to a Logan (it is very close to the Storm). This form also reworked feels positively in terms of ergonomics, the phone is more convenient to take control. It also inherits a dedicated lock button on top as the Storm, thus avoiding having to dig into menus.
Screen
While the Curve is the smartphone public RIM (the Pearl does not really), they do not have cigarette butts on the screen compared to the Bold. It is fantastic. The colors are vivid, contrast is high, very correct resolution and viewing angle is important. For pinailleurs, colors are significantly warmer than the Bold, a little like the iPhone 3G compared to the iPhone.
Keyboard and trackball
The keyboard is virtually identical to the old Curve, with marginal changes in the form of buttons that most users probably do not even notice it. The new trackball Atomic “is not so different from what you know, it is just more firmly established and more robust.
Battery life
We have not conducted formal tests. This was not just because our testing device is not a final version and optimization software can improve on that plan. But at first glance seems autonomy comparable to that of former Curve (ie more than a day), even if the new material is tough.
