What do you think of the new Blackberry Storm?

BLACKBERRY storm what do you think?

  • i really want to buy the blackberry storm but don't know what to expect what do you think is it as cool as it looks

  • Answer:

    Check out the reviews on different site most of them say its just a simple phone nothing exciting about it. The touch screen is jagged,slow,choppy and pokey. It's just a cheap imitation of iPhone. Storm is capable of displaying only 56,000 colors which is mediocre iPhone can display over 200,000 colors. Storm doesnt have VoIP capabilities. VoIP has become immensely important feature today. Storm doesnt have Wi-Fi so lots of thing you cant do which is possible only if you have W-Fi like remote access to speakers or home theater system. I control the music of my entire house from iPhone its not possible for Storm. iPhone can take screenshot. Suppose you paid your credit card bill and receive the confirmation no. if you dont want to write it down you can take a screen shot of the statement. Or if you visit a website you like some stuff n u wanna keep that page , you can take screenshot of the page or portion of the page/image and store it. You can do it while watching a movies also on iPhone. I have taken screen shot of amazing action sequence of many movies. Storm has barely any app that can excite you iPhone has over 6,000 wonderful apps. Storm is just a simple phone that lets you make calls if you do anything else everything freezes up. ON iphone you can stream full length movies and music videos at high quality but Storm is just capable of low quality youtube videos. iTunes already have great collection of free video Podcast. Storm users wont have that luxury. iPhone has live photo streaming so emailing picture to many at the same time with one click so u wont miss MMS at all.

I am not Apple fanatic but I will point out some basic shortcomings of Storm: Storm has serious lag whenever you type or do anything there is a noticeable lag. Touch screen of Storm is not enjoyable I have heard they are working on it so may be by mid 2009 they will fix it by an update. When you type, the letter goes blue under your finger so you cant quite see what are you typing this is the one thing I love about iPhone coz on iPhone when you type the letter gets bigger "above your finger" so you can clearly see what are u typing it minimizes the typing errors. Storm doesnt have Wi-Fi. Lot of people think whats the big dead I will access internet on Verizon network BUT no there are many features that works only with Wi-Fi for example remotely controlling your speakers or any wi-fi gadget. And more over you cant enjoy internet on Storm its not as vibrant as iPhone's...no good games on Storm. You cant watch online full length movies on Storm but on iPhone you can watch.

Storm looks ok but far from being cool. Storm has not very impressive features I have Storm and my brother has iPhone 3G so I bought iphone 3G too on my family plan. I wanna keep verizon till the contract ends but seriously thinking of returning Storm. It gives me night mere. It keeps on freezing for no reason. The only reason why I preferred Storm over iPhone initially was the service of Verizon but now I think it was a mistake. I have heard clickable creen eats up lot of RAM and slows down processor speed, thats why it has terrible lag and keeps freezing up.

Storm is a step backward and the worst phone by Blackberry. I loved Blackberry Bold but I hate Storm its not even close to iPhone 3G.

sucks, get an iPhone instead

I see Blackberry as more of a "you have a physical keyboard" and not "OH WHAT'S THIS? The screen... clicks..." If anything, go with the iPhone.

laaaaaaaawls.
