BlackBerry Pearl 8100

Price - Rs. 9,999.00

The BlackBerry Pearl 8100 smartphone is one of the world’s smallest smartphones and packs all of the power you expect from a BlackBerry smartphone. It comes complete with digital camera, multimedia capabilities and expandable memory. And it offers users everything else you would expect from a BlackBerry smartphone—including phone, email, web browser, text messaging (SMS and MMS), instant messaging, organizer applications and more.

The BlackBerry Pearl smartphone is small enough to take anywhere. It’s the ultimate combination of brains and beauty.

The good

The RIM BlackBerry Pearl is the first BlackBerry to offer a 1.3-megapixel camera, music and video playback, expandable memory, and a mapping application. The supersleek phone also continues to offer superior push e-mail capabilities, EDGE support, and Bluetooth....

The bad

The RIM BlackBerry Pearl's microSD slot is inconveniently located behind the battery, and call quality was subpar in our tests. The phone's camera doesn't record video, and we wish there were external controls for the music player and integrated Wi-Fi.
