I am so pleased with my recent purchase from Eforcity. I lost the trackball to my Blackberry (8330) and took it to my phone carrier. The tech wanted to charge me $99 for him to replace this part. I was so upset. Then, I searched for the trackball and this item from Eforcity appealed to me. This was my first time purchasing from Eforcity. So, I read other reviews by other customer who were very satisfied with their products and service. I step out on faith and I am so happy I did. I received the product within 4 days of my order. The packaging was nice and more importantly the trackball works wonderfully. 5x Trackball For Blackberry Curve 8300 8310 8320 8330
As I was told the other day, my balls came in the mail. Well for the phone they did just that. Great timing and work just fine. Easy to install and now the tracking and all is as good or better than oem. Thanks for reading this , All I can say is this is a great buy.. Keep smiling, Johnnyrock
Hey they work. After dealing with the trackball not working for a solid month it is so nice to have one that works. I didn't notice that I was ordering multicolor, but the change from white was nice.
It fit nicely and I installed it myself. I event have extras!! This was a package that cost lest for all 5 than I would have got 1 for locally. And by less I mean 260% less. These even feel better than the orginal, has better traction.
This set of 5 replacement trackballs were just what I needed for our Blackberry 8330s (we have 4 of them). My Blackberry is very heavily used and I have already gone through two trackballs and at least one of the other Blackberry devices have begun to act sluggish. Since it seems that this is going to be a regular occurrence, a set of 5 trackballs seemed like a good investment.
These are decent quality and the colors are nice for variety. The included "opening tool" (looks like a guitar pick) is just about worthless for removing the silver retaining ring, so I just used a utility knife point to pop it out. Once the retaining ring is off, just pop out the old one, put in the new one, and replace the retaining ring (use the original or one of the included replacements).
These are a fairly inexpensive way to self service your Blackberry. I decided to try this first before taking it to the Sprint store to fix, so likely saved a lot by doing it myself.

My CrackBerry trackball suffers from greasy fingers, exposure to elements, and all kinds of crap. I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did. Actually, what did it in was my feeble attempt to clean it. I took it a part, cleaned the little magnetic bits, put it back together and managed to cram it back in place. The ball worked better but was oriented 90 degress off! Argh...
Then I looked on Amazon for a replacement was was dismayed to find they were only $2-$3 a piece. After reading the reviews, I noticed that some balls are inferiors. So I ordered this five pack. If one gets clogged, I've got more!
Replacing was easier with the little blue tool. It popped out the retaining ring. I replaced the trackball and tried to replace the retaining ring. The "legs" on these retaining rings are a thinner metal. It's hard to line the legs up properly. Fortunately, my original retaining ring still worked fine. I used it.
My CrackBerry is now fixed and the trackback glows green! I love cheap replacement parts!
My blackberry trackball went bad so I ordered from Amazon. I got a new trackball from someone else and it lasted about 2 weeks before it was sketchy. then ordered on amazon again. Waited a week and found out it wasnt shipped because it wasnt in stock when it said it was. they NEVER told me.
So I decided to look at trackballs with good reviews. This company had pretty good review but I saw that someone said the trackballs were textured a bit. Well that makes the difference. The smooth trackballs will get your natural oils from your hand and make the trackball not track well. These textured balls make ALL the difference.
So pay attention to reviews and get from these guys. Great colors and they actually work! - Accessories - Blackberry Trackball - Blackberry - 8300'
