Abstract: T-Mobile isnt the first U.S. carrier to offer the Wi-Fi-equipped BlackBerry Pearl 8120 (AT&T Wireless launched its 8120 earlier this year), but T-Mobiles version has a decidedly consumer spin. Thanks to T-Mobiles innovative HotSpot@Home technology, ...
Integrated WiFi for Web, Email, and HotSpot@Home UMA Calling; Trackball is easy to use; Integrated IM Clients; Second-to-None Push Email; 2MP Camera with Flash; 3.5 mm Headphone Jack; Compact Size
OS Menus and Fonts Remind me of 1989; SureType QWERTY board will be too small for some; Video capture quality is mediocre
T-Mobile’s new Pearl takes a good thing and makes it better by way of integrated Wi-Fi networking for data access and T-Mob’s HotSpot@Home service. A few other minor improvements make the handset’s media player and keyboard a little bit...

Abstract: Here we go again: another Blackberry product with UMA from T-Mobile. If you travel at all, you need UMA on T-Mobile. Straight up. Say what you want about your Samsung Ace with SIM card slot. That’s weak sauce compared to a phone that works at any ho...
Abstract: The BlackBerry Pearl 8120 for T-Mobile is an excellent choice for people who want to try unlimited Wi-Fi calling using the carriers Hotspot@Home system. The latest and greatest in the BlackBerry Pearl line, this iteration does a little bit of everythi...
Wi-Fi–calling capability, Superior battery life, 3.5mm stereo jack, Includes instant messaging clients
Some calls didn’t connect, Browser doesn’t automatically switch between EDGE and Wi-Fi, Mediocre camcorder, No GPS
The BlackBerry Pearl 8120 is a welcome addition to T-Mobile’s HotSpot @Home lineup of phones. We appreciated its clear quality and speedy surfing over Wi-Fi networks, improved user interface, and the higher-resolution camera. In general, we prefer t...
UMA calling is a cheap and convenient. Slightly improved hardware design.
Interface polished, but not much improved. Lacks impressive media playing and Web browsing options.
The BlackBerry Pearl is ultimately a likable phone, and one weve had no trouble recommending. For such a small smartphone, it has plenty of features, and presents them in a way that is easy to follow for new smartphone users, clearly its target audi...
Abstract: The BlackBerry line of smart phones from Ontario, Canada-based Research In Motion (RIM) has long been a favorite of business users. With the original Pearl, they managed to shrink many of their classic features into a cell-phone sized device. The Test ...
The RIM BlackBerry Pearl 8120 brings integrated Wi-Fi and works with T-Mobiles HotSpot@Home service. The compact smartphone also has an improved Web browser and a 2-megapixel camera with video recording capabilities.
The Pearl 8120s SureType keyboard requires a learning curve, and the cameras video quality is poor. It also lacks integrated GPS.
T-Mobile customers looking to upgrade their BlackBerry Pearl or get their first smartphone will find a good choice in the RIM BlackBerry Pearl 8120. Its also compatible with T-Mobiles HotSpot@Home service and $50 cheaper than AT&Ts model.
Abstract: It might be said that the original Pearl marked when BlackBerry got its cool. The Pearl was slim, shiny and sexy yet smart. Gone were the days when RIM devices were wide-load, plasticy appendages found on a businessmans belt. This was the populist Bl...
