Expert Review for the BlackBerry® Pearl™ Flip 8220 (T-Mobile) Cell Phone
Expert Review    3.8
by Joni Blecher -- November 26th 2008
BlackBerry’s first flip phone has arrived, the Flip Pearl 8220. While it might not be as compact as many of the flip phones currently available, that doesn’t mean it’s not an attractive cell phone. Although the 8220 Flip sports a new form factor, there’s no skimping on any of the features that you’ve come to expect from BlackBerry. That’s simply not the case. Like the Bold, the Flip sports all the favorite features wanted on a smartphone: WiFi, stereo Bluetooth, multiple e-mail options, the ability to view and edit Word, Excel and PowerPoint docs, an impressive MP3 player that supports album art and finally a 2-megapixel camera with a built-in flash that also has the ability to record videos. Simply put it’s a BlackBerry with an edge. We just wish it had 3G support.
