    5.0 out of 5 stars Well its the best mobile for business I have used!, 28 Aug 2008
    By Mr. G. Bridgeman-clarke "Graham Bridgeman-Clarke" (Rayleigh UK) - See all my reviews
    (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
    Believe me, I think I must have used most mobile on the market some time or the other. Okay that's an exaggeration the does feel like it as I get through two mobiles a year. I currently use and I find and this Blackberry Pearl. If you compare the iPhone with a Blackberry Pearl the Blackberry Pearl wins hands down, though the Blackberry Pearl is for business use, I tend to use it more for both personal and business use of then I use the iPhone. It is compact and has stacks of useful features with one or two eccentric featres like the rollball and the two letters to each button making texting a bit taxing but pretty easy after a bit of practice.


    I find the phone quick to start up ie within 20 seconds. On start it shows my unread emails from my business, BT and Mac accounts and text messages. Brilliant. Excellent programmes including diary, camera phone with flash, e-mail, web browsing, mp3 player, video, picture gallery alarm etc and to be honest I can't fault it. It is small enough to but my trouser pocket and walk round without an unsightly bulge. I must admit I'm not into bulky phones.


    I note that quite a few people do not seem to like this phone but I work on the basis that you need to read the manual, learn the features and have a phone for at least a few months then make a decision. I think I am justified in giving this phone a rave review and I am currently due upgrade to my mobile and I have decided not to upgrade my iPhone to the new version but I will certainly consider upgrading my Blackberry to the next level.

    1.0 out of 5 stars Complete rubbish as a normal day to day mobile phone., 16 Jan 2008
    By Allbuyer "Allbuyer" (UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Got one of these a a few months ago to replace my LG. What a waste. All the problems listed below are based on using it as a standard mobile phone and not the blackberry features it has.

    Poor sound quality, speaker phone distorts, cannot vibrate and ring the same time, battery cover keeps sliding off, crashes once a month, no automatic key lock, takes ages to startup, screen back light goes into standby when on a long call, qwerty keys to small to type anything properly, camera quality low, glossy plastic scratches easily, getting use to the numberic keys takes time, text on keys too small, unable to sync anymore etc..

    Also trying to use the internet on O2, you must have a blackberry addon which costs £10 per month on a 12 month contract. Without this you will not be able to send any service books to the mobile (update settings).

    They only good feature is the trackball and voice commands.

    Dam, just killed any chances of me getting rid of this phone on Amazon!!!

    4.0 out of 5 stars Can't live without it, 17 Jan 2008
    By W. B. Quigley (UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Whilst I agree with some of the comments made in the other reviews eg it does crash the odd time but switch if off and on again and it is fine, qwerty keyboard suretype takes a while to get used to, folder playing of music means you have to set your folders up to play what you want, camera is not fantastic at night. However, it has a music player, decent camera in good light and amazing access to all your outlook features which synchronise automatically during the day. I use it as my sole MP3 player and also to run my outlook calendar, notes and e-mail. I really don't know what I would do without it (and won't be selling it on Amazon or elsewhere!)
