RIM BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220

RIM BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220

MSRP  $50.00    Released  October, 2008
Pros
  • First flip-style Blackberry
  • Two large, high-resolution, light-sensitive LCD displays; one on the inside, one on the outside
  • Only $50 with a 3-year contract
Cons
  • Slow Web page load times even on WiFi
  • Poor web browser
  • Internal processor EXTREMELY slow: Phone cannot play back it's own recorded videos without stuttering, then crashing. If a theme has an animated gif background the phone's whole OS slows to a crawl. Even with standard theme, it's a bit sluggish to navigate. Only the simplest of games run smoothly.
