Product Description
Highlights
The Pearl 8100 might look unlike a BlackBerry but it flaunts almost all RIM features. Strong e-mail service defines this Smartphone. When used with T-Mobile BlackBerry Plans or Plan Add-on features, its use becomes optimized. The full QWERTY keyboard with the SureType predictive text entry makes typing swift and precise. What’s surprising is its intelligent designing—all attributes are clubbed neatly into an ultra-thin and light frame. Furthermore, features like integrated GPRS, v2.0 Bluetooth, 144-Kbps EDGE data download speed, voice recognition, voice-activated dialing, 1.3-megapixel camera and mobile Web browsing ensure you’re hooked to it for a long, long time!
Aesthetics and Design
The ruby-red exterior of the Pearl 8100 with metallic sides catches your eye. At 4.0 x 2.0 x 0.6 inches and weighing 3.2 ounces, it is diminutive enough to fit into your hand, or slide into a small bag or pocket. Its petite candy-bar shape is fascinating as it packs in more attributes than expected. For instance, the modified QWERTY keyboard, with 2 letters per key and SureType technology, eases your texting and application use. And the 240 x 260-pixel main screen supports more than 65,000 colors! A quad-directional trackball under the screen helps you navigate blissfully. The 1.3-megapixel camera is strategically positioned at the back for quick captures. Need we say more?
Ease
The superior a gadget gets, the easier it is to use. Simplicity is the key to the Pearl’s dictum. It supports a range of networks (GSM 850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz) and functions in most GPRS-serviced countries. You can synchronize the phone with your PC or laptop to access your e-mail, address book and calendar. Multimedia messaging (text, picture and instant) is a breeze making your social connectivity holistic. Finally, the phone is compatible with T-Mobile voice plans, BlackBerry Pearl options and other rate plans. Choose a good service plan to slash costs or avail facilities.
Calls
The Pearl 8100’s lithium-ion battery guarantees talk time up to 210 minutes and standby time of up to 15 days, which means all your calling become stress-free. The phone recognizes voice in a jiffy and helps you voice dial. You can set caller tunes (download fave MP3 tracks) and ringer profiles, or can choose from over 32 polyphonic ringtones (chords). To personalize your phone, set picture caller IDs for your close friends and family. Other quickies like speed dial, vibrating alert and comprehensive contact book make calling fabulous.
Bluetooth
The Pearl comes with easy-to-use Bluetooth Wireless 2.0 that supports serial port profiles. The technology comes with Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) for faster data transfer and reduced power consumption (which means you save on battery life). Connect to an A2DP handsfree headset (via the 2.5mm headset jack) or one of the many Bluetooth devices to have a blast. Try it and get addicted to this BlackBerry-Bluetooth story forever!
The Net
Error-free Internet accessibility is a must-have. The Pearl 8100, with the EDGE high-speed data service, lets you browse the Web at broadband-like speed. Its full HML Web one-touch browser makes navigation trouble-free. Hop into a window, bookmark WebPages, access BlackBerry maps, get news pop-ups, alerts, information, e-mails, messages and more before you can blink. You can chat too (Instant Messengers like Yahoo! Messenger and Google Talk are pre-loaded, and AOL and ICQ are supported). Moreover, Pearl is data capable (use it as a modem when needed).
E-mailing
This feature is always an experience on a Blackberry. The Pearl supports e-mail client (real-time ‘push’ service) that can integrate up to ten official and personal accounts (POP3, IMAP and SMTP) and receive e-mails instantaneously. The device also comes with built-in viewer software to view and edit e-mail attachments (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, WordPerfect and PDF file formats). Excess data (if any) can be stored on additional memory (via a microSD memory card and the slot provided) or transferred to a PC or laptop (using the standard mini-USB port).
Entertainment
How about grooving to some music? The BlackBerry Pearl 8100 multimedia music player supports MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+, AMR-NB file formats. You can download precious tracks directly off the Net to expand your collection. It also allows video playback of MPEG4 and H.263 files. To amplify your pleasure, stream a few files. Pearl’s SMS and MMS feature rocks too. Besides music and messages, the phone facilitates downloading of Java-titled games (T-Mobile services) and customizable graphics.
Imaging
The entertainment-goodies list of this phone is unending! The BlackBerry Pearl 8100 comes with a 1.3-megapixel camera with an LED flash, 5x digital zoom and white balance adjustment. It can capture high-definition pictures and videos (up to 1280 x 1040 pixels) while you are on the move. The placement of this feature at the back of phone makes all the difference to its rapid handiness and clicking.
