Excellent

8.0

out of 10
CNET Editor's rating: 8.0 out of 10
Reviewed by Bonnie Cha
Review date: 3/23/08

The good: The RIM BlackBerry 8820 for T-Mobile brings the addition of Wi-Fi and support for the carrier's HotSpot@Home service. The smartphone continues to offer solid e-mail functionality and as well as Bluetooth, GPS, and multimedia capabilities.

The bad: The BlackBerry 8820 doesn't include the improved Web browser found on newer BlackBerrys, so there's more work involved in navigating pages. The handset is slightly bulky, and we wish it was equipped with a 3.5mm headphone jack.

The bottom line: The RIM BlackBerry 8820 one-ups the BlackBerry 8830 and offers T-Mobile business customers a well-connected smartphone with the addition of Wi-Fi.
