 Nice phone but has a few major disappointments Feb 12, 2009
By Harold Malmstrom
I bought this phone a month ago.
A selling point was free Wifi, among other features.
Wifi is free but "data" is not, that is unless one turns off manually the AT&T network before connecting to the internet, as the phone will still transmit data , (thus you will be charged).
While the network is off you will not be able to receive phone call, so remember to manually turn the AT&T Network on again when done with the "Free WiFi"
PROS;
Keyboard works good, easier to type than on screen keyboard, at least thats what I found.
Call quality is great, much better than the Razr I had previously.
The reception is also better. The Moto Razr had poor reception at my work place , the Blackberry 8320 gets clearly better reception.
The ringer is louder than the Razr also, which suites me because I work in a noisy building.
The phone has many feature.
I've added movies, games, ring tones,and documents with a small amount of effort to learn "How Too".
CONS;
Documentation is poor, there are many different versions of this phone, T-Mobile, Sprint, Verizon models seem to all have differences, so the generic book you download from BBerry is just that, not specific.
Another major disappointment was that the maps that is downloadable from Blackberry is not compatible with the AT&T's version of the 8320.
AT&T's version does not have GPS either, (at least I could not seem to get it) another disappointment.
(However you can use Google Maps with this phone)
[...].
However there is a learning curve to this phone, (no pun intended).
When I went to my local AT&T's store to check out the phone, they did not have it in store, in fact the salesman argued with me that such a model did not even exist or surely they would have had it in the store,
(The next day I ordered it from their Web site).
With so many features I guess its hard to expect to take a phone out of the box and expect to learn how to use it without spending some time.

 I was enjoying the phone until...... Mar 17, 2009
By Christopher C. Lemons
I really enjoyed the ability to copy and paste phone numbers from any application to wherever I needed it, BUT only two weeks after having the phone I turned it on and received a white screen stating "jvm error code 102". Well needless to say that's all it took for me because I was really needing to utilize the phone at that time. I continued to click reset but it would only return to that screen. So, I returned the phone for a refund and never looked back.

 One Excellent Blackberry (ATT- Sapphire Blue) Mar 08, 2009
By KoolJeffy
I really don't know where to start with this phone. This is by far the best phone that I have ever owned and I've been through a lot of phones over the years. This review is for the Curve 8320 in Sapphire Blue for ATT.
I've been through quite a few phones via ATT since my wife and I joined with them Sept. 08. I've tried the Samsung Blackjack II, The Motorola Q9h Global and the Samsung Epix i907. I just couldn't find a phone that I was really happy with. Out of the ones mentioned, the Q by far was the best unit until my wife and I decided to give these Blackberries a try. After two days of having this phone, not only am I hooked, but I would not give this phone up for anything. I have to give RIM a lot of credit because it takes a really good phone to satisfy me.
Pros:
1. User Interface- very slick and sharp
2. OS performance- very quick and peppy, little to no delay between applications
3. Handset/Earpiece- The loudest, sharpest and clearest audio I've ever heard in a phone.
4. Speakerphone- Great volume and clarity
5. Voice command- Precise and very accurate
6. User Customization- The best in it's class. I've never seen a phone with as many options as this one.
7. BlackBerry Messenger- Since my wife and I both have the phone, this really comes in handy
8. Battery life- Using Bluetooth, data and running multiple apps, the battery holds it's own and provides a lot of uptime between charges.
9. Wifi- Haven't used it because I have a data package, so I can't comment on this right now
10. Email Setup- Very easy and user friendly to link your personal and corporate email accounts
10. I could go on and on, but I'd be here forever. Just go and give this phone a try and you'll see what I mean.
Cons:
None to mention, this phone shines in every way. This phone is next to perfect!

Nice Phone but no GPS Mar 24, 2009
By G. Mills
This is a nice phone, but I already knew that after having a Blackberry Curve 8300 before. The Amazon description is misleading since it says the phone has GPS. It has WiFi, but no GPS. If I had known that I would have gotten the GPS model (since that would have been more useful to me) or gotten the BOLD.
Amazon needs to fix the description on this item.

 get it only if you love AT&T so much Sep 24, 2010
By yi
I would say LG makes a great product. This is a phone that fully meets your expectation. It is light weighted. The screen is bright. We can adjust the font to we like. Signal is strong. Battery can hold about 3-4 days. A good (if not great) phone.
It is AT&T that sucks. This is a heavily AT&T customized phone. It means you are so easy to make mistake that click a button to "get at&t service", such as go to internet, check yellow pages, download ringtone, loading a map. And of course, it means AT&T will charge you. You have to be very careful to not touch these buttons -- they all sit on the most common place, and you can not change it at all.
I have payed my price. In fact, I stopped use this phone 2 months later. My lesson is: if you truly love AT&T, get it. Otherwise, forget it.
