The Curve 8320 incorporates a camera. There was a time when RIM eschewed such things, focusing purely on business-orientated features like mobile email. Now the BlackBerry range caters for a wider market.

The 2-megapixel camera, which captures stills but not video, has a small LED flash and a self-portrait mirror. The supplied media application will display pictures and downloaded video, and play back music.

The music player is not particularly sophisticated, but does help to broaden the device's appeal. The Curve supports microSD cards, so you can store plenty of image, video and other data. Annoyingly, the card slot is located underneath the battery, so swapping cards means powering the device down completely.
