BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 review
The BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 is the Wi-Fi enabled version of the popular BlackBerry Pearl smartphone. With a design that is perfect for business and multimedia support, the BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 is the perfect phone for a variety of individuals. With a stylish exterior and enough features to make even the most advanced tech junkie envious, the BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 is a great choice for a variety of people. However, there are a few drawbacks that set this otherwise impressive device back.
The BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 is essentially the same device as the BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8110, except that it also packs Wi-Fi support into the phone. Being a quad-band GSM phone, the BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 can be used anywhere in the world with a simple swap of the SIM card. However, since it is tethered to the GSM network, the BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 lacks the high speed data transfers usually associated with CDMA phones. In other words, it lacks 3G support, relying instead on the aging GPRS/EDGE network for data transfers.
Measuring in at approximately four inches by two inches by half an inch and weighing only 90 grams, the BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 is a large device – but not very heavy. Perfect for the purse or the sport coat pocket – but not necessarily for a pair of tight fitting jeans.
The battery life on the BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 is quite a bit longer than its CDMA counterpart, the BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8130. Expect to get approximately four hours of talk time or 360 hours of standby time from a single charge. While the standby time is long, the four hour talk time may be limiting to some.
The BlackBerry RIM Pearl-8120 includes a main screen that measures 240 by 260 pixels, but it lacks advanced color support, as it displays only 65k colors.
