The new blackberry pearl has really changed things in terms of this kind of technology. This is the next generation of smart phone and it comes complete with Wi-Fi and GPS. The smaller, slimmer look of this device makes it a much more attractive phone than previous Blackberrys. This smaller size however, does not mean that there are important features missing from the Blackberry Pearl 3G in fact there is more than ever. This phone also comes with the ability to take photos and even make videos.

Another nice feature with the Blackberry Pearl 3G is the updated keyboard that comes with plenty of shortcut keys. These are great for making it much quicker when writing texts or emails. The hotkeys also allow you to move between functions a lot more smoothly. Building up your library of shortcut keys might take some time but once you have done it you will find that it is even easier to use your Blackberry. There were many complaints about the keyboard system used on previous models of Blackberry so the makers have decided to go with the standard keyboard on this model.

Another thing that the Pearl 3G has that previous Blackberrys don't is an optical mouse instead of a tracker ball mouse. Many feel that this optical mouse is a huge improvement because there are no moving parts and it also tends to be far more responsive. The display on the phone is bright and suitable for watching video although for best results it is recommended you view in landscape mode.

Overall this is a great new addition to the Blackberry range and is sure to win a few new fans to the product. The fact that the makers can actually get more into a smaller phone has to be the best thing about it.
