RIM Blackberry Pearl 8110
RIM’s Blackberry Pearl 8110, which is based on the recent Pearl 8120, is no doubt consumer-oriented with this petite physique and good looks. It is sleek at 107 x 50 x 15 mm and just light at 91 g including its battery weight. It comes in three different colors. You can choose from black, blue or pink casing, depending on your attitude and personality. It also has an impressive large screen with 65,000 colors and 240 x 260 pixels resolution.
The device sports a SureType QWERTY keyboard system, which allows word completion, editing of misspelled words with is built-in spell checker. It also comes with a backlight for the trackball and the keyboard, making the keys stand out especially in dim places.
The Pearl 8110, like its other Blackberry siblings, is heavily supported with email functionalities. This beauty can access up to 10 Blackberry Internet Service supported accounts and Blackberry Enterprise Server supported corporate email and data systems. However, RIM still has not improved in web browsing capability in this phone. The 8110 web browsing is only acceptable in rudimentary web page navigation. It also comes with Bluetooth connectivity, allowing wireless connection to your personal computer, laptop or printer.
This quadband (GSM 850, GSM 900, GSM 1800 & GSM 1900) smartphone’s major key feature is its built-in GPS receiver and WayFinder Navigation, which replaced Wi-Fi connectivity. Through this technology, the Pearl 8110 can tell the user’s location and help him plan trips, reserve accommodation on their destinations and share routes and maps with others through email.
To make tech savvy people happy, RIM exerted effort on adding camera to this smartphone, breaking away from its usual camera-less models. The Pearl 8110 sports a 2 Megapixel Camera with Flash and 5x Zoom, which also has a video-recording function. It also has a built-in media player for the user’s listening pleasure, through headset or over loud speaker.
A rather surprising addition in this beauty is the Facebook application, clearly emphasizing RIM’s intention to target the consumer market. This add-on feature would surely delight people who love sharing their experiences with their friends all the time. Now, they don’t need a computer to update their friends with their latest whereabouts and escapades. All they need is to click that tiny F button in this smart Blackberry phone.
Lastly, RIM promises the consumers four hours of talk time and 360 hours of standby time for the 8110. The phone also comes with a 64 Mb Flash Memory plus a MicroSD memory card.
