Video Review: BlackBerry Pearl 8220 flip mobile phone
Flip reverse it...
With all the hoo-ha surrounding the Storm, RIM has sneaked another little gem through the back door. The RIM Blackberry Pearl 8220 flip smartphone is the latest in the line up of semi-precious smarties.
Snubbing the candybar design of its predecessors, the 8220 struts up sporting a first for RIM with the flip design. Sitting pretty in the hand it does conjure up images of a pimped Motorola RAZR, but when we say pimped, we’re talking Westwood. It’s slightly shorter than the likes of the Pearl 8130 but on the chunkier side, nothing compared to the likes of the Curves out there.
With the flip comes the buy one phone and get two screens offer. The first on its outer shell is a 12 8x 260 TFT LCD screen, which lets you preview messages and also check the caller's ID. It's not groundbreaking technology and most flip phones have the same feature, but it can prove useful to avoid unwanted 0800 numbers.
The inner screen is where the big money is. It’s a 240 x 320 3-inch screen which lets you view video in landscape or portrait mode. The quality is fantastic and sporting the new Blackberry UI (seen previously on the Bold), it’s a welcome update from the slightly poky 8130.
Other updates include a massive memory upgrade from the 64MB on previous Pearls to 128MB and the addition of the BlackBerry media synch that’ll let you whiz your tunes from your PC onto your 'Berry.
