What we have on the table is a Curve smartphone that actually has some curves to show off! The 9360 does look the part, and is a certain step up from the quality of smartphones we have seen in the Curve range till now.
Look & Feel
At 11-mm, the Curve 9360 is on the same platform as the Bold 9900 in terms of thickness. However, carrying on with the usual trend, this Curve also has a largely plastic body with the typical spaced out Curve keys. The micro USB slot is on the left side, while the right side gets the volume rocker and a convenience key, nicely integrated into the design. The battery cover is extremely glossy plastic. The side opening mechanism isn't as hard as we have seen on some other phones.Over and above the extremely slim design is the sheer weightlessness – at 99 grams, we aren’t very sure if this will even work as a paperweight! Kudos to RIM for a excellent design package. Overall, we are quite impressed by the looks of this new Curve, and it does offer a premium feel to the package, something missing from most Curve phones till now. Slide it into the trouser pocket, and chances are you will forget it is there!
Features
The new OS is the biggest talking point – the OS7. How time flies can be judged by the fact that the OS6 was released just about a year back, and now we have the successor. Disappointingly, the visual appearance of the OS7 isn't very different from the OS6. And that isn't a good thing considering that the OS6 wasn’t an iOS or Android beater, at least in terms of UI.
