Should I get a blackberry (9310) on boost mobile? - whoaaaa - 11-09-2012 10:41 AM
So, BM has the Blackberry 9310 for $100 then unlimited talk/text/web for $60 a month. I think its a pretty decent deal. I would get something from verizon.. but I'm not 18 yet and my parents want me to have a cell plan in my own name so...
After doing some research on blackberry... I have actually come to like them. I was all about getting an iPhone or the Droid Razr.. but I mostly just want a phone that can do texting and calling, plus easy access to facebook and twitter and this seemed like the best phone. No extra stuff to waste money and time on.. apps and the like..
Do you think I should get the blackberry? Or is there a different phone/plan?
Also, do you think this phone could last me a long time; is it durable?

don't get a blackberry. you probably will regret it latter.

That sounds like a deal.
I'd recommend that you check the retail price of the phone without a new account or service and see how much you're saving. Also, can you afford the monthly payments? Often, when a carrier states "unlimited" web or whatever, it'd do you well to read the fine print. And be sure that, if you have to sign a contract, that it's a phone you'd want to be stuck with for the next two years. Don't go with a phone just because it has all the latest features and such, as new phones are coming out all the time.
RIM makes good Blackberry phones. Just do your research. Ask around. Get a phone that suits YOUR needs. Read phone reviews online. Keep your options open.
I'd recommend a GSM (SIM) carrier over CDMA, as you have greater flexibility.
