Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this phone for a trip to Italy. Set up was easy - on arrival in Rome, I only had to slip my TIM (Italian phone company) Sim card into the appropriate slot on the phone and follow the instructions for changing my preferred language to English and I was off and running - able to communicate during my recent vacation there. There was only one glitch when I found I was unable to call my husband's Italian cell phone number. After being assured by the Italian cell phone company that there was no problem on their end, I figured out that the "Smart Dialing" feature on this Blackberry was adding a USA prefix each time I dialed my husband's Italian phone no. (I guess based on the fact that most of the numbers in my address book had a USA prefix). Once I disabled "Smart" Dialing (not so smart, as it turned out!) everything worked perfectly. I specifically purchased a phone with Wi-fi so that I would not have to pay data charges while in a Wi-fi area. This turned out to be of great benefit, since the apartment I stayed in had free Wi-fi. I would give this product a 5-star rating if not for the fact that the camera sometimes stops working and you have to remove the battery and replace it in order to reboot the phone, at which point the camera works again. The same thing happens on my Blackberry pearl that I use here in the US, not sure why, but this was the only glitch I experienced and I otherwise highly recommend purchasing this unlocked, quadband, wi-fi GSW phone if you are planning a trip to Europe and have a Verizon phone like I do, here in the US, that does not work on any European network. I hope to use it again on many European trips in the future!
