See moreOne of the things that you will be sure to love most about the RIM Blackberry Pearl 8100 is its overall lovely design. In fact, its design is very fashionable, which just may be one of the reasons that you become attracted to the RIM Blackberry Pearl 8100 mobile phone to begin with. Is definitely suitable for any pocket or purse, with its thin design. Although the screen of the camera is relatively small, there are a variety of different qualities which makes up for this. There are two buttons on the phone which you are able to set to the functions which you tend to use the most, which seems to be very convenient for most people. The RIM Blackberry Pearl 8100 has a pretty decent music player to offer you. One of the main benefits is the fact that you are able to set any song to be your ringtone. Unfortunately, this mobile phone is not very suitable for people who are interested in using their phone as their main source of photography. This is due to the fact that the built in camera that the RIM Blackberry Pearl 8100 has to offer is only decent. The mobile phone also does not have a video recording function, which is offered by most of the mobile phones that are currently out on the market. The battery on the RIM Blackberry Pearl 8100 has a pretty long life, even when you decide to play music for hours on end.
Overall, it is safe to say that the RIM Blackberry Pearl 8100 is an excellent mobile phone choice for anyone who wants a decent phone in general. However, the major quirk about this mobile phone is the fact that the camera is lacking, and that there is no video record function.

Reviewer: Register Hardware04 October 2007- Overall 10
Pearl is the best BlackBerry yet. Full stop. It does everything RIM is famous for - seamless email and communication - and packs it into the same space as a normal mobile phone. Throw in the easy-to-use roller ball navigation and a built-in camera and it covers all the bases. If you want everything on the go, and want it now then the Pearl is currently the only handset on the market that ticks all the boxes. ® Read more

Blackberry Pearl 8100: Good business phone
Reviewer: Dooyoo05 June 2009- Overall 6
Overall a very good phone. It took me a while to get used to the keyboard layout for texting and e-Mail. Its amazing how much you get used to a standard phone. However, now I am used to it, it has become second nature. The roller ball is both an advantage and disadvantage of the phone. It offers a great addition for navigation the clean menu and UI of the phone. However as it ages, it becomes extremely tempremental. Only the other day it decided to stop scrolling right....
