    From a little over a year of usage, I can solidly confirm that this phone is absolutely terrible. Repeated restarts and freezes, terrible resource management and battery life. This phone only works properly when you don't use it. Any kind of usage causes over-heating and restart, especially with simultaneous use of BBM and WhatsApp. I urge anyone reading this to NOT get this phone.

      masterBEERTJIE, 22 May 2013to all those people out there, wondering if they should buy... moreDear MasterBEERTJIE

      I am glad you haven't had any issues with your phone. My BB 9380 has given me nothing but problems, and I've only had it for 8 months now.

      THe keylock button is broken, the pick-up button is cracking, I have to take out the battery at least 5 times a day to get my messages, the battery lasts all of 30 min and then goes flat, it's internet connection is pathetic and the phone lags badly. (Please note - I am not a rough user. The screen is unscratched, even though you can't get a cover for this phone anywhere.) Calls drop for no reason and some calls just don't come through.

      However, this is not what bugs me the most. The worst thing is the phone's total lack of sensitive reaction protocol. For instance - the bloody phone keeps putting itself on hold, while I am mid sentence. When it doesn't do that, it beeps and beeps like I have Tourette's Syndrome - all this while I am on the phone with my clients (it comes across as very unprofessional). And nothing you do can stop it. NOTHING!

      I can assure you - if none of your customers have returned their Curve 9380's, it is only because the phones have driven them insane and they are not able to return it, or they have thrown it against a wall in pieces.

      THIS IS A CRAP PHONE!!!

                                      In my opinion,dis 9380 is d best of d curve models,good screen sensitivity,gyd battery life and stylish. As regards heating just upgrade yo OS and dats all. When running on wifi it dos get hot-guess dats a common issue with all bb. Switching off data service prevents d phone from using BIS so y wud u do such ept for wifi and hotspot usage. This is my second time of using dis phone as I water damaged d first.asides tourch 3(which looks just like it) and bold 5,dis phone is just a little from been perfect. My recommendation-BUY,UPGRade OS,use a screen and body guard and ENJOY!!!
