| Bottom line | For those who seek an affordable and entry-level BlackBerry, the BlackBerry Curve 9350 is the way to go. | The RIM BlackBerry Curve 9360 makes a great entry-level offering for those already in the BlackBerry camp. | The BlackBerry Bold 9930 is the best QWERTY BlackBerry to date, but should be priced lower. | The BlackBerry Curve 9310 is still the same ho-hum handset you can expect from RIM, but for a no-contract BlackBerry, it's reliable and makes texting a breeze. | Verizon's BlackBerry Curve 9370 brings you BlackBerry 7 OS and a global-ready SIM slot in an ultraportable package. Unfortunately, some design flaws and a high price for an entry-level device make the QWERTY handset hard to recommend to anyone except BlackBerry devotees. |
