BlackBerry Curve 9360 gets mobile hotspot thanks to leaked OS 7.1

BlackBerry Curve 9360 gets mobile hotspot thanks to leaked OS 7.1

Posted on Dec 16, 2011 by MG1

Following closely with recent leaks for the Bold 9900 and Torch 9810, the entry-level BlackBerry Curve 9360 now has a leaked operating system upgrade which will enable mobile hotspot functions.
BlackBerry users have been waiting for this function for a long time, and even now seems a little late to the party, what with BlackBerry 10 right around the corner. It would be entirely laughable if RIM managed to launch their new platform without mobile hotspot, but given how they’ve been slogging on bringing new PlayBook functions to market, I wouldn’t be remotely surprised if there were a few function gaps in RIM’s next-gen smartphones.

BlackBerry Curve 9360 launched on Wind Mobile and Mobilicity

BlackBerry Curve 9360 launched on Wind Mobile and Mobilicity

Posted on Nov 04, 2011 by MG1

Canada’s two plucky independent service providers, Wind Mobile and Mobilicity, now have the BlackBerry Curve 9360 on sale. Wind already announced their intentions for the 9360, along with the Torch 9810 and 9860. Prices differ a little bit between the two; Mobilicity is asking $299.99 without a contract, while Wind Mobile is charging $349, but has the option for folks to get it free on a WINDtab.
The BlackBerry 9360 is a slim, pocketable little phone, and though the specs aren’t up to snuff with the current top-of-the-line, it definitely blows the last generation out of the water. It’s got a 5 megapixel camera with flash (but no autofocus), 2.4-inch 480 x 360 display, 800 MHz processor, 512 ...

BlackBerry Bold 9900 and Curve 9360 MasterCard PayPass approved

Posted on Oct 27, 2011 by MG1

The BlackBerry Bold 9900 and the BlackBerry Curve 9360 are the world's first SIM-based NFC smartphones to be MasterCard PayPass approved, Research in Motion has announced.
What this means is that the devices have met the financial giant's guidelines and, as such, any MasterCard PayPass-issuing bank will now be able to offer MasterCardPayPass-enabled accounts to the SIM card of these smartphones.
Basically this will turn your BlackBerry into a mobile wallet, in much the same way that the Samsung Wave 578 offers NFC action with Orange and Barclaycard.
"MasterCard is proud to be the first to certify these popular BlackBerry smartphones for mobile payments, and offer consumers another simple, ea...

Coming soon to Orange UK is the BlackBerry Curve 9360 in white

Posted on Oct 14, 2011 by MG1

The BlackBerry Curve 9360 has already landed on the Orange UK network sporting the traditional black paint job but now the same smartphone will be arriving in white in the near future.
White has become increasingly popular among manufacturers when it comes to a secondary choice of color. There was the white Apple iPhone, the white HTC EVO 3D and even Samsung joined the party by making a white version of their flagship Galaxy S II. RIM has produced a few white BlackBerry handsets before and now you can add the Curve 9360 to that list.
Orange UK currently has the white BlackBerry Curve 9360 listed as coming soon. It will be free on a monthly plan. The Curve 9360 is an entry-level device that...

BlackBerry Curve 9360 and Torch 9860 launched on Bell

BlackBerry Curve 9360 and Torch 9860 launched on Bell

Posted on Aug 30, 2011 by MG1

Last week, Bell launched the BlackBerry Curve 9360 shortly behind Telus, and raised them a Torch 9860. Since the two carriers share an HSPA network, it’s no surprise that their device launches are close together, or that they’re matching pricetags at $49.99 on a three-year contract.
The BlackBerry Curve 9360 is RIM’s new entry-level offering, and is surprisingly tiny. It’s got a 2.4-inch 480 x 360 display, 5 megapixel camera with LED flash, and runs on an 800 MHz processor with 512 MB of RAM. NFC is also packed in there, but it looks like carriers are locking that feature down for the time being. There’s still the magnetic compass in there for augmented reality apps, at least, but no other i...

RIM's BlackBerry Curve 9360 outed -- is this Apollo?

RIM's BlackBerry Curve 9360 outed -- is this Apollo?

Posted on Aug 04, 2011 by MG1

Did RIM forget this budget entry update, or was it pushed aside for this morning's announcements of its higher-end BlackBerry brothers? No matter the case, OneMobileRing got a hands-on with the Curve 9360, and it looks like this portrait QWERTY could be following in its brethren's OS 7 footsteps. Shots of the device reveal a Tour-like chrome trim, optical trackpad and the requisite micro-USB port for your charging / connectivity needs. A pic of the device's open battery door also shows off a SIM card slot, leading us to believe that this may very well be the ever-elusive Apollo. Could we see this mid-end, GSM workhorse in T-Mobile's near future? Our in-house Ms. Cleo predicts a yes.
