                      bryce, 10 Oct 2021i just bought this phone for 10 dollars at a thrift store and it works amazing for being 12 ye... more10 dollars is pretty expensive I'd say, but yeah it's a cool phone that I still use. I've been having network problems recently, may be time to retire. Plus it's going to lose all support after 4 Jan 2022.

                          My first Blackberry phone, man it was the phone to have, I remember people mainly had the 9300 or this one, typing on BBM to chat with friends/family, BBM World to download WhatsApp, it was a great phone but in this day and age it’s not viable anymore as the battery degraded doesn’t handle well and WhatsApp support ended a few years ago

                                        Jaiden, 13 Jun 2019It's shocking me how a phone like this doesn't support 3G!Back then data costed so much that it was almost a bad thing to have 3G, you could blow through an entire 50MB data package in 30 seconds by accidentally opening the web app. It had wifi to make up for the slow data connection and at least the 2G actually worked (unlike modern phones)
