BlackBerry 7100i user review

4.5

First BlackBerry for me, and I love it!

By: Phil Hayward on Wednesday, December 21, 2005
From Columbus (United States)
Experience: 3 Weeks
Pros: Some of the things I have been impressed with so far are the great color screen, direct connect access from the side of the phone, and I am really loving
SureType.

Cons: Because the phone is so light I am worried that it may not be tough enough. The best way to describe it that it seems like a toy plastic phone.
The thumbwheel seems to lag a little, but remember this is my first BlackBerry so maybe it's supposed to do that!

Summary: The 7100i is my first BlackBerry and definitely won't be my last! This phone is the perfect size and comes with things like Push E-Mail, and Berry 411 services. I know in past reviews people complain about BlackBerry devices not having a camera, but I say buy a BlackBerry and a new digital camera because this phone is so worth having!
