Blackberry curve 8900 vs. blackberry curve 8520?

Is the blackberry curve 8900 better or blackberry curve 8520 better?

• I was wondering which blacberry is better. I know the 8900 has a trackball and 3.2mp camera and the 8520 has a trackpad and a 2.0mp camera.

• Answer:

  I have the 8900, I got my phone is september 2009 and I thought long and hard about which to pick from. I went for the 8900 simply cus it was designed better. I really didn't care aboutt he trackpad because I had a pearl prior to this and the trackball is ok...besides NOW people are starting to complain about issues with the trackpad.The8900's camera was better and although I got a discount for my phone I felt like if you're gonna buy an expensive phone it should have a nice camera! 2.0 mp is NOTHING and my 8900 has auto-focus which makes the picture quality way better than the 8520....my pictures come out as if I used a digital camera. withoututo-focus pics aren't so great. the 8520 has media buttons on the top of the phone (play,pause) and I hate that! If im listening to music why would i press buttons at the TOP of the phone? thats an awkiward place for media buttons, it just doesn't work for me. On the 8900 the standby and lock buttons are on the top. I use these buttons alot for putting my phone on standby to preserve the battery life and to prevent from calling while in my hand, purse or pocket.The 8900 has GPSood quality video capture,bright easy-to-read screen, lool its funny cus alot of people pick up my phone and touch the screen because they think it has a touch screen cus the phone screen is so bright and clear. The only downfall about the 8900 is NO 3G..but I can live without it. oh and the fact that the phone memory is only 128mb and you cannot download apps to memory card so they will be taking up space on your phone which means if you have too mnay your phone will slow down.BUT I HAVE NO PRONBLEMS SO FAR, I ERASE ANY USULESS APPS ANYWAYS. Alot of people assume the 8520 is better because its newer but its actually the other way around.They put really good features in the 8900 and left them out in the 8520 which is backwards. I am glad today that I have my 8900 because looking back at reviews and just comparing the phones side by side they're not the same.
