CNET reviews the BlackBerry Pearl 8130 and writes;

” The good: The Samsung SCH-U550 cell phone offers stereo Bluetooth and 3G support. The bad: The Samsung SCH-U550 has a dull design and poorly designed controls. Also, its call and multimedia performance was disappointing. The bottom line: The Samsung SCH-U550 doesn’t offer the performance or design that we’d expect from a 3G Verizon Wireless cell phone. ”

PhoneArena reviews the BlackBerry Pearl 8130 and writes;

“The Reception and Voice Quality of the U550 is quite good and equal to that of both the Gleam and FlipShot. When comparing the U550 to the VX8350, it produced the cleanest sounding and most “pleasing” voice quality through the earpiece speaker, without any background noise or interference. People that we called on a landline also agreed that the U550 produced good sound quality, with our voice being clear and lacking any interference. ”
