RIM BlackBerry 7230 review Editors Choice Award

1 ... 4 5 6 ... 20

Email convergence, good; phone features, bad


The convergence between email/Outlook/phone is a great feature. However, just looking at cell phone features, it has to be in the bottom 10% of all cell phones produced in the last 5-10 years, and is certainly the worst I have ever used.

Extremely un-ergonomic and very bulky. Battery life makes it very inconvenient, and apparent lack of availabile car charger is a killer.

The wireless email and address book synch with Outlook are time-savers, but there has to be some answer that doesn't sacrifice the simplicity that most cell phones have had for a number of years.
