BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220 (T-Mobile): Review Part 2
phonedog asked:
Part 2 of Noah’s 2-part review of the BlackBerry 8220. The first-ever BlackBerry flip phone hides the buttons away for a sleek look, but does it have the juice to keep Crackberry addicts happy? Much more on the 8220 @ www.phonedog.com

The Blackberry Pearl Flip doesn’t require a data plan or any smartphone plans. If you want, you can just get the phone, a voice plan, and check out. You can still use internet and all if you have wifi, and if you spend most of your time at home, then perfect. But to get most out of a blackberry, an optional blackberry data plan is availible for this phone.
NOTE: The data plan is optional only on the flip. All other smartphones REQUIRE a data plan.

No need to get upset. I’m not trying insult your intelligence. That comment (common sense) was referring to just general people and I didn’t mean to be offensive at all. All I’m saying is I don’t get scratches contrary to some other experiences people have had with the phone.

I am not stupid enough to leave it with keys, metal, coins or anything of that nature. I have had it with 0 things and proven that it will get scratches still in my pocket. It is called rubbing material (common sense).
The scratches on the screen if you don’t use a screen protector will happen as even other users have shown the exact same marks on theirs. Sorry buddy but I wasn’t trying to flame the phone just pointing the facts like others have.

I don’t have the scratching problem at all. Just don’t put it in places with other things. Such as keys (common sense).

Mine lasts on average with a good amount of texting 2-3 days. I don’t leave it on at night though.

whats the battary life on it

I have this phone. Easily scratches all over the screen from simply closing after a few weeks forming the shape of the ball area with even slight soft closing. Poorly made for screen scratch prevention outside and inside. Facebook and some other apps that mind you come on it don’t even work with the tmobile subscription so it’s stupid lame. I am going to trade mine for a curve or go with verizon now.

Are there any phone protectors for this phone?
January 23rd, 2010 at 8:10 pm
If you’re only adding a line to a family plan? I think it’s more like $200.
