BlackBerry Phone Reviews (1 of 3)



This will be the first of three articles where I review most of BlackBerry's newer phones. Please take note, I have obviously not used or owned all of the phones listed below, and this guide is to be used more as a reference when making a buying decision. I am attempting to consolidate my thoughts along with those of a few friends of mine.



The items reviewed in this article will be the BlackBerry Pearl 8110, Pearl 8120, and the Pearl 8130. The second article will focus on the BlackBerry Curve 8300, Curve 8310, Curve 8320, and Curve 8330. The last article will focus on BlackBerry's new 8800 series phones.



BlackBerry Pearl 8110 - The 8110 has incorporated the new integrated GPS for use while on the road. We found the GPS service to be outstanding during our one time use. The built in camera also took clear pictures and had a mirror for self portraits. The battery time is decent, rated at 4.5 hours of talk time. There were only two complaints. First, the testing of the speakerphone system did not go perfect. We personally noticed no communication issues, but the person on the other side of the phone thought the sound was slightly unclear. Also, this phone lacks the integrated Wi-Fi.



BlackBerry Pearl 8120 - The 8120 incorporates the integrated Wi-Fi that the 8110 lacks. The phone also boasts the ability to do video recording in addition to having a 2.0 megapixel camera. Unfortunately, the video recording is below par and the this phone lacks the integrated GPS. I guess you have to take the bad with the good.



BlackBerry Pearl 8130 - The big brother to the 8110 and 8120, the Pearl 8130 improves on a few of the earlier model's shortfalls. The 8130 sports integrated GPS, video recording, a 2.0 megapixel camera, and an upgraded Web browser. If you do much Web browsing, I would suggest this phone over the 8110 and 8120, as the speed is noticeable faster. Again, no Wi-Fi is available in this model.
