Comparisons Featuring BlackBerry Curve Touch
Short Review
- The BlackBerry Curve Touch features a compact design with a 3.25-inch TFT display, offering a resolution of 480 x 360 pixels at approximately 185 ppi.
- The build is straightforward, with a black finish and no water resistance.
- Performance is driven by a Qualcomm MSM8655 Snapdragon S2 chipset, an 800 MHz Scorpion CPU, and 1GB of RAM, which supports basic tasks but may struggle with heavier applications.
- The 5 MP rear camera captures decent images and can record video at 720p, though it lacks optical image stabilization and a front-facing camera.
- Battery specifications are not provided, but the device does not support wireless charging.
- Running on BlackBerry OS 6.1, the software experience is tailored for productivity, though it may feel outdated compared to modern operating systems.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1, and NFC, while USB connectivity is via microUSB 2.0.
- The absence of 5G support limits future-proofing, but it does include a headphone jack for audio.
- Overall, the BlackBerry Curve Touch is designed for users seeking basic functionality in a compact form factor.
