Well I don´t have any unlike about the status operational of this item, because for the type of item, a very low price was paid. Also I was warned about the detail that the battery cover was not included with the item. The phone works very well. My unlike is about that sometimes the pictures shown in the bidding are not a very well picture of the item. In this case the pictures showns the item without the battery cover and very normal signs of wear. But As I received the item, it was very ugly, not with signs of use, very very used, but in the pictures didn´t looks like that. Anyway I have had to expend more money getting a complete set of new covers for this phone. Anyway it works, and I am satisfied with the purchase.
The phone is a good product. I like the features. The only thing it doesn't do is connect with the internet and I cannot receive my personal emails. I've been on the phone with Blackberry Support several different days for several hours and they could not get the phone to register with the IEMI and PIN number that the phone has. There's not even a manufacturers name on phone. I don't even know if this is a legit phone made by BlackBerry. The delivery was awesome. I was told that I would have it in 7 to 10 days and I had it in 3.
The Blackberry pearl 8100 is a small, portable smartphone that can fill the shoes of a bigger more expensive and innovative smartphone. It cannot be ranked amongst top smartphones but it does what a smartphone must do in a light and small package. The pearl is easy to use with a great battery life and can be found at a reasonable price on ebay. Overall a great phone.
The phone is simple, affordable, light, and easy to use! The battery life is amazing considering I used it frequently for 3 days without charging. The only cons to this phone is that it is not as user friendly as the iphone and the scrolling ball gets sticky after several uses. I would rather get a phone with a button than a scrolling ball but that is just my opinion.
What can one say? This model (Pearl 8100) is what a smart phone should always be. It is small, useful for mature grown-up adults who don't want to waste their days ruining their thumb joints with endless texts and internet frenzied browsing. However, if one desires, this will do it just as well as the newer, bigger, more expensive, and quickly obsolete models. Take for what it is - a truly excellent phone with all the bells and whistles that still rival anything newer out there.
