Blackberry Pearl vs Palm Centro vs Motorola Q [Verizon]?

Question

If I were to look into these phones without purchasing the web browsing / email data options, so based on functionality and the included applications, which phone is the best option? All three are the same cost to me, and the service would be under verizon wireless for a 2 year contract.

Answer 1

The Blackberry Pearl is a fine device but the Blackberry Curve is by far the better phone with a full QWERTY keyboard, hands down, bar none the best for the money - unless you can afford the I-phone.

Not sure why you are considering the Centro and Q.

Answer 2

Pearl. I love it. Task, memo, etc.... He got all I wants.

Answer 3

I love my blackberry pearl but it always breaks down. For instance my trackball is stuck and my keys aren't working i may have to turn it in. Plus, with only a tiny splash of water it breaks too. Blackberry pearl is a very nice phone it just very very sensitive, you can't put it in your pocket or anything without something getting stuck in it or it breaking off or something. I'm sure Palm Centro would be better but i wouldn't know.. I've noticed that the nicer the phone the more problems i get, my old phone that was c**p lasted me 1 year and ever since i got my nicer phones (blackberry mostly) it breaks down so many times! I've had 2 blackberries in the best 2 months and now my 2nd one is breaking down.. Is it really worth 300$ if it's just going to break down after a few months unless you watch out for it 24/7??
