This blackberry is an absolute bargain. I bought mine just before Christmas for £99 plus £10 top up with T-Mobile. This includes 12 months free email and internet. For that price is it definitely worth buying especially compared to the £30 + monthly cost of the bigger blackberrys. Please be aware that orange do not offer the same all inclusive deal - I nearly bought the orange phone as I thought the offer was the same so I just wanted to warn people. also have a blackberry curve given to me by my workplace but the pearl certainly holds its own. Now for a review of the phone. **Appearance** As this was cheaper than the ...  Read the complete review

I use this phone for work, so it was not my choice to have it - it's the model I was given when I started. I was delighted to get a Blackberry, but I have to say my first reaction was surprise - I didn't know they came in small sizes! I don't use the phone a great deal, it's just that it's company policy for everyone to have one. There are some things on it that I don't use, such as facebook, but I can give you a lot of comments on the main functions of the phone. One of the first things I realised about this was that the keyboard has a really daft layout. On larger Blackberries you get a full size keyboard, and on every other regular size mobile ...  Read the complete review

I do love my Blackberry Pearl! It was a pretty odd choice for me, I'm no big hot shot who needs constant contact with my office email, I don't need a stream of to do lists, or notes, my phones calendar is empty bar July which states 'Holiday, Yay!' I rarely use the internet feature, apart from when my Boyfriend gets lost and I have to re-find the postcode for the satnav. So I bet you're thinking, why did she get the Blackberry? Why not just a normal, texting, ringing, £50 from Argos phone. Because the Blackberry is a classic, plus it's pink. I kind of felt like Blackberry were trying to target this phone for more normal use, less work more play. Downsizing the ...  Read the complete review

After my phone recently died on me, my sister very kindly let me have her old phone - the Blackberry Pearl 8110. A lot of my family have Blackberrys, so I was fascinated when I got this and knew I could finally be part of their 'club'! I really like the feature of Blackberry Messenger - this means I can talk to the people who I know with Blackberrys through this for free! If you don't know anyone with a Blackberry then I guess it is not particularly helpful, but this allows me to easily contact family members and they can also contact me, therefore it really does benefit us (although I have unlimited texts, a lot of them don't!). It has a QWERTY ...  Read the complete review

This was the very first blackberry which I have owned, and I was eager to start using it when I got it from the shop on a 2 year contract. The phone looks very sleek and modern and feels nice in your hands. When I first turned it on I was quickly trying out all of the different options which the phone offered. The video/camera is not the best quality, and is mostly out of focus. It took ages to get used to all of the different settings and options. I had to google some of the things I couldn't figure out in order to change some settings. Changing your ringtone is not very easy when your not used to the interface, eventually I discovered you need to go on ...  Read the complete review
