RIM Pearl 8100 PDA Phone

the pearl is nearly perfect!

Posted Apr 28, 2008 - I've had this phone for 4 months and I'm addicted to it at this point. I have a bunch of movies on it so I'm ready for any plane ride! It has great reception, works great with the bluetooth (Samsung WEP200) I have for it and I can download tons of applications for it. I also have email on the go and the voice dialing works decently. This phone has everything I need and some things I didn't know I needed. I also love the size of the phone. Perfect for your pocket. The only thing that could be better is the battery life. Depending on usage it can last 1 day to 3 days. Not horrible but also not great. I would definitely recommend this phone to anyone!

Blackberry 8100 Pearl Cell phone

Posted Sep 26, 2007 - I ordered this phone about two weeks ago and although there was a bit of confusion on what type of cell phone i needed such as the carrier, i received my cell phone. Everything was perfect and just the way I needed it. I will definetly be ordering more things from pricegrabber in the future.

BlackBerry Pearl 8100

Posted Jan 4, 2007 - If you're looking for a smartphone that isnt bulky like the 8700, I would get the Pearl. DO NOT get the Cingular Pearl. It is disgusting though it does have the PushToTalk feature. The 1.3 MP camera isn't so bad. I like how you can put in a 2GB microSD card. I just place 1GB of MP3s, 0.5GB of pictures and 0.5GB of apps/games. Now I don't need to carry my iPod Nano around with me. Many upgradable "free" apps. Many accessories for it. All the accessories I have for my Pearl are free because I am a reviewer :) I still get free updated products. I also sell the Pearl battery doors because it seems like many are easily scratched or breaks. I would recommend the BestSkinsEver invisible skin. Same product as ShieldZone but 50% cheaper. As far as case, go with Seidio Rubberized Case (black) and does not attract lint. I am waiting for the BlackBerry Crimson that comes out late Spring. It will have Wi-Fi. -drools- The Pearl does have a downside and that is sometimes it lags and takes a while to load things which accounts for the hourglass...oh well. Not everything is perfect.

Awesome phone

Posted Feb 19, 2007 - It is very good phone and easy to use. The most and advantageous feature of this phone is trackball with which we can operate it easily.Camera with 1.3mp which is good.For loading and playing music it is better to add a 1 gb micro sd card as cingular does not give with the phone. The map feature which is really good and can be operated like maps.google.com. Voice dialing also very good in this phone.

Blackberry Phone

Posted Apr 29, 2008 - I like how this phone looks like but it is quite difficult to use. It is stylish and thin compared to the older Blackberry models. The qwerty phone keys are hard to use.
