BlackBerry Curve 9380 hands on video

Announced earlier this week the BlackBerry Curve 9380 is the first touch screen Curve to grace us with its presence.  While not having a hardware keyboard this new Curve will appeal to many.

Running BlackBerry 7 and all the usual features you would expect such as a 5 megapixel camera, NFC, GPS and a 3.5 mm headset jack, the Curve 9380 seems to do most things pretty well.

If you are after a touch screen device which is great for viewing photos, watching video and playing music, along with the bonus of push email and BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) the Curve may be right up your street.

You can see our hands on video below where we run through the hardware and software and of course you can expect a full review to come in the next couple of weeks.
