BlackBerry 8100 Pearl Review Roundup

Get this Phone Now for the
Best Price on the Internet!

The Blackberry Pearl 8100 is pretty much generating mass hysteria in the techno world and its no surprise that websites are scrambling over to get their hands on it. The big guns have already managed to give their two cents on the handset (that was quick) and now a number of reviews are floating on the World Wide Web. Here is a review round up of the Blackberry Pearl:

Business Week – The folks at Business Week like the Pearl for its sleek ergonomics which is a pleasant surprise since Blackberry handsets are never really easy on the eyes! The Blackberry Pearl has all the functionality of the previous handsets in addition to some great multimedia features like 1.3-megapixel camera and a Media Player. However all is not hunky dory according to the site as the Media player is “ugly” and takes eons to load! Also the new pearl-like trackball below the screen was found to be over-sensitive.

International Herald Tribune - Like Business Week, they also comment on the stylish design and praise the makers for going down the small size road. While they do realize that hard core Blackberry fans may hate the new trackball, but for them it’s not that bad. Updates like new SureType software and an 1.3 MP camera are appreciated. However they were not impressed by the cameras performance and hated the fact that the MicroSD card was located in the battery department.

New York Times - The review takes a pragmatic approach to life and declares that no handset is perfect! The Pearl is no different and they like the menu structure and the new and improved control buttons. But according to them the Pearl failed in aspects like battery life and the MicroSD card slot placement. They are also not thrilled about the fact that T-Mobile would carry the phone since they are infamous for slow internet speeds.
