What Other Items Do Customers Buy After Viewing This Item?
This is not a bad phone for the money. This phone is already two years old, thought is was more recent. The product came new in the box, but no engraving pen - key chain )came with it. don't know if I would use it any way, nice thought though. The picture on Amazon shows a different screen then the one that is on the phone, new phone has a clock wrist watch looking when closed. The phone also requires that you get a DATA PLAN through Verizon wireless. This plan is 29.99 a month, this was very disappointing, THIS SHOULD BE PUT IN WRITING WHEN REQUIRED BUY THE PHONE CARRIER WHEN ADVERTISED. I may not use all the features with this plan, and is a waste of our money in today's economy.

The seller said it was new in box, it was in box the box had been opened.The box says, this package contains, blackberry pearl flip 8230 smartphone, standard lithium battery, 3.5 stereo headset,blackberry travel charger, USB data cable, documentation kit(including user tools CD) VZAccess manager CD-ROM and Quick reference guide. Of those nine items listed I only got the phone, battery,wall charger,manager CD-Rom and the quick reference guide. I can't get the phone to work right I have made four calls to Verizon spent several hours on the phone with them and still can't use the phone. I am most unhappy.

I've bought 2 phone about a month ago from this seller and i have to say its really not a bad phone i got it for my 2 sisters who lost their phone and needed new ones and they love it the Ups: It came in 1 week after i placed the order. It works just as good as another BB. You don't butt dial. The camera takes some really good pictures. the Downs: There is no wi-fi. the memory is not that much so you will need a SD card. if you want to do BBM you will need to update it yourself. and the ringer is a soft but if you keep playing with the sounds it comes out loud. Other then that my sisters love the phones. If there is any other questions you want to know about the phone i'll be more then happy to answer it

This phone does not have a WiFi radio. You can only access the internet by using carrier (Verizon) data. Someone should update the product description, although anyone who's looking to make this kind of investment should refer to other sites besides Amazon before making the final determination.
I bought this phone while it was still advertised on Verizon's webpage (it's since been "retired"). I wanted a smartphone, but I always liked flip phones because they're compact and they aren't especially noticeable in the pocket. Other than feeling a little too light and not being the most durable phone, I really liked it. It was originally a Sprint phone and I waited for Verizon to pick it up. As soon as they did, I moved on it.
If I recall correctly, it did have a slightly slower processor than its candy bar form factor Blackberry contemporaries, but it wasn't a big deal to me. I only browsed the web with it on occasion, as the interior screen was too small to really enjoy the experience and most websites didn't render quite right on it. It was also a much slower, more drawn-out affair than it is with newer Blackberries, Droids and iDevices, but I expected that.
The LED is huge on this phone so it was very hard not to notice if someone called or texted you, as long as you set the LED properly (installing BeBuzz from the Blackberry market helped, too). This phone is highly-customizable, with long lists of options that can take a long time to really sink your teeth into. If you enjoy getting lost in lists-as I do-Blackberries are the way to go.
One drawback: the front display is not really customizable at all. It will always tell time and your only choice is of what style "clock" to display.Read more ›

Received in good condition. Phone audio quality terrible--buzzes with each syllable as if caller is speaking through a kazoo (not present in speaker mode). I have had two Pearls in the past without this problem. Does ANYONE quality test this product prior to shipping? Disappointing and unacceptable.

This is by far the best of both worlds.... Smartphone with flip style. So far I have not had any problems with this phone,everything works good on it. I have had a blackberry curve and don't like the fact that in your pocket or purse it will dial numbers. If you are a person that has to have the newest phone on the market it is not for you.But if you are looking for a smartphone that is easy to use...this is it. The happiest I have been with a phone since my razor( The very frist razor to come out). love it.
