BlackBerry Storm (CDMA) / Reviews

From a distance, there is little to set the Storm apart from the increasingly crowded field of touch-based devices. It's black and has gray and silver accents. RIM did not stretch any design boundaries here. It is sophisticated and elegant, but not unique.

Though the width is nearly identical to that... More

So with that said, we really have to recommend that people hold off before buying a Storm. If you overlook the bugs, which I expect to be fixed soon, then the Storm is by far my favorite BlackBerry device. It's not as good for pure messaging as the Bold or Curve, but it is far more fun in general for... More

I love BlackBerrys and will finally admit that the iPhone is not stupid. I refuse to give up one for another, so I carry around both devices. I wish the Storm were the real iPhone killer, but it’s not and I’m afraid there won’t be anything to ‘kill’ it for a while. So, let’s... More

If you’re a Verizon Wireless subscriber and a dumb phone won’t cut it, you’d be pretty air-headed to not pick this bad boy up above any other smartphone in Verizon’s lineup. It’s the “realest” touch screen Verizon has ever got. Not a piece of crap Voyager or... More

It's clear from the device itself and the massive promotional push that both RIM and Verizon are giving the Storm that they view this as a proper threat to the iPhone's dominance in the smartphone market. Over the last few weeks we've been bombarded with commercials, leaks, press releases, and special... More

If this phone would just do as it's supposed to do, it would be great! But the screen freezes all them time! Someone said I have too much stuff on it, but isn't that what these phones are designed to do?

Also the camera. When you click to take a photo, it lags before the photo is captured.... More

This phone was clearly rushed to market to compete with iPhone. Less than 1 year is the life span of mine...and I understand that is well above average.

I generally am a big fan of Blackberry, but this one was horrible. The hardware is very poor (particularly the touch screen which deteriorated rapidly... More

The Blackberry Storm 2 is by far the best wireless phone I have ever used or owned and it puts Apple's iphone to shame. I especially like the "controlled" scrolling on it that stops when you stop scrolling so you don't over scroll past what you are looking for and it's extremely... More

What a crappy phone. I bought one when they first came out.(9530) I'm on my fourth one. Constant troubles. I'm not even trying to run any more apps than the phone comes with. Sometimes it will lagg so that I cannot answer the phone when I get a call... sometimes it will not ring. My phone is... More

This is, hands down, the absolute worst cell phone I've ever had. It stalls and freezes during about 50% of the phone calls I receive or make. Although this is a blackberry and thus capable of receiving push notifications, you won't recieve the emails in a timely manner because the phone freezes... More
