The Blackberry Curve is arguably the best smartphone for its price tier, even though it might not have all the bells and whistles of other smartphones. The iPhone 4 and HTC Desire, though superior phones, are also much more expensive than the Curve. Comparable products would be the Samsung Wave or the LG Optimus. However, Blackberry soars pasts the competition in terms of battery life, e-mail capabilities, and camera quality with its newly released Curve.
