so is it worth if I trade my Nokia C3 for BB Curve 8520?

worth if you use BIS... if not... not worth at all...
better buy the other smartphone, let say Nokia E5, Nokia E6
which has better features than BB Curve 8520


People use BB for its BIS or BES

hi guys, i'm planning to buy samsung galaxy s2 at the end of the month, but i heard about the release of samsung galaxy s2 hd lte. what do you guys think? should i wait or just go ahead with the s2?
*
no much different IMO.. just the S2 HD LTE has LTE[long term evolution] , bigger screen size, heavier, bigger resolution, better processor, better GPU, and bigger battery capacity..

but i wonder if it will released @ Malaysia, i think it just for Korea market only

I have 2 in my mind now. Can you guys help me please.  smile.gif  smile.gif
1st, I plan to go for bb9900
2nd, maybe Ip4, but not i4s.

Any suggestions?  icon_question.gif  icon_question.gif

what you really need..?

A Blackberry device or Apple device..?

RIM OS ..? or iOS ..?

both phone is really different..

if you familiar with Blackberry devices,,.. you will know that BB is only useful if you subscribed BES/BIS package..
BB is specially for people who like social networking and have excellent push e-mail on the go..
BB is simple, it is known for their comfortable qwerty keypad..[at least in 9900, it has comfortable qwerty keypad]..
BB9900 has touchscreen and qwerty keypad..

if you targeting for multimedia thingy + games + entertainment.. any BB is not recommended..

iphone 4 is excellent in term of entertainment and games, it also has social network apps, it is fully touchscreen and it is smooth, wide choice of apps available in their apps store.... and you can buy or download from their app store..
speaking in term of smooth, iPhone 4 is really smooth..
in term of simple, both are really simple to use..

I just need a phone that can do what a smartphone does without UI slow response time like my current SGS. Big time sucks. doh.gif

Budget - Less than RM1.5K. (Basically of what I can afford for a smartphone)

- Nokia 701 - RM 1010 ORI


Meego device

@Kae, thanks for the video. All looks goodingz but N9 macam overprice?
Yes, layman term it lags in terms of qwerty keyboard. Type then lag. Im not the only one having this problem.
I don't know does other smartphone have this problem?

the price is very worth for the performance of the device.. nod.gif

QUOTE(danielcmugen @ Dec 8 2011, 10:03 PM)
Look at Windows Phone 7 devices if u don't mind to wait for more apps to come

I see. Thanks for advise. Will probably try window phone 7 devices instead. More apps to come? Basic like social - whatsapp, fb, etc sure have right. I don't really play game and angry bird bores me as well. just need to browse and social.

yeah... basic apps like you mention is available ...
