BLACJACK OR PERL. STILL NO DEFINITIVE ANSWER.

😢 😢 😢 😢

This is a follow up to a previous post because I did not get any helpful infomation.


I currently have the black jack. And it's a pretty good phone. I just need to know if the perl is better. I bought the v3xx about 4 weeks ago, but added someone to my account, and gave it to them, and got their discount...

Quirks That Annoy Me On WinMo5 and on Blackjack.

1. Ringtones Too Quiet For Me (V3XX BLASTED RINGTONES)
3. Screen Too Small
4. Cannot display pictures properly as wallpaper/cuts them off.
5. Even though its thin, it's just a TINY bit to wide and feels bad when holding it.
6. Applications have to be ended, or battery life is horrible. 👿

Are any of these better on the Perl?? Anything ...

The Pearl sounds like it would be better for you...
a.) No more awkwardness holding it.
b.) No more needing to end applications or deal with bad battery life.
c.) Fairly loud ringtones, but I will be honest I never played it side by side with a BlackJack.


Here is the only thing that I can think of... the screen size is not any different- it just looks bigger because the phone is smaller.

I hope this helps you. 😁

I can't get past the fact that you can't spell blackjack or pearl. How can someone not know how to spell pearl? Schools are falling apart.

Didn't know I was still in HS... I promise I will do better on the extra credit homework. I just wanted a simple answer on phones. Not a spelling lesson.

since when are the words black and pearl extra credit? 5th graders can spell them. Hilarious.

Have you actually gone into a store to look at the pearl for yourself? Most of these questions could be answered better if you looked into the issues personally. Considering how important the investment sounds to you why not sample the differences personally?

Maybe I am lucky where I go... I never have had a dropped call with any cingular phone. Oh well..

I was actually considering the Treo 750, HTC 8525 or The Pearl. I just can't stand wide/bulky...

I like way to many phones.... Ugh...

This thread has gone on long enough. Just buy the Pearl & get it over with. It is the best phone that fits your needs.
