SURE HOT HANDSET: BLACKBERRY PEARL FLIP

It allows you to control how, when and with whom you communicate thanks to its call screening and message preview function on its external facade, which also features a digital date clock.

The BlackBerry® Pearl™ Flip 8220 incorporates SureType® technology – the keyboard layout and dynamic software allows users to speed up their typing thanks to a function which learns the user’s typical word pattern choices. A spellcheck feature is now a mainstay of the BlackBerry Pearl series, which is the smallest handset on offer in the BlackBerry portfolio.

Consumers can receive up to 10 different email accounts on the handset, with improved inbox layout for easier access to information. It also features Wi-Fi for instant internet access wherever a user may be and a Google Maps application, which allows users to pinpoint where they want to get to with precision as accurate as that of a desktop PC.

Many businesspeople work ‘on the go’ now, so with a built-in speakerphone and conference calling facility, it increases flexibility for users by allowing them to conduct their business from anywhere in the world.

For those who like to receive entertainment on the go, the BlackBerry® Pearl™ Flip 8220 is perfect. As well as featuring BlackBerry® Media Sync which transfers desktop iTunes® music files to the smartphone, it can be turned on its side so users can watch videos in widescreen.

As well as featuring a camera for taking great pictures in an instant, more memorable events can be captured on the handset’s video camera. Pictures can be uploaded to sites including Facebook, Flickr™2 and instant message chat 2.3 to share quickly with others. It is also Bluetooth enabled to allow transfer of files.
