BlackBerry Storm 9500 review Comments
- Douglas
What I dislike about the 9500 is that it is sometimes a struggle to open things on the phone as you have too tap it constanly before it opens and I would allso like to know is it just my blackberry that times out anytime it wanta to or are all blackberry's doin the same?

I bought a storm 9500 and got fed up with it just after three days. It gets heated and hot so easily, has serious annoying lags and lock-downs and hiccups. Indeed it is not a device for use under hot/warm temperatures. Do not try it in Africa, South Asia, or South America. You tend waste more time trying to store data or use the key board than any other normal phone. Press a key or feature on the right hand of the screen and you get the result of a key or feature on the left hand side. It is indeed the worst phone I have ever used.
Not recommended for anybody!!!

I am looking at the BB Bold and the BB Storm.
Could any 1 tell me what is the main difference and as prior BB users what would be the best buy??
I am going to use it for emailing and web browsing and all my every day business functions and will use pdf and excell often.
And if you would also tell me why you chose the BB and not the Nokia N71?
As i am looking at the Nokia N71 as well as the BB Storm and BB Bold.
It would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Had my Storm since Dec 08. Replaced it with a new one in Feb 09 due to constant lock up, video camera not aways allowing me to record and playback images, very slow response when changing screens, battery only lasting 12-14 hours, poor reception. Not happy at all. Will be returning this unit to VF for a totally different phone. It is ashame because it is a smart looking phone and lots of features, but what is the point of keeping a phone that cannot be used because it locks up.
If you are considering this model, do yourself a favour and save yourself the frustration - pick something else.

The phone looks lovely, and has a really nice finish ... thats the positive points. The negative things are that the battery lasts less than 24 hours and the functionality is a bit sticky. The camera seems turn itself on from time to time which is also annoying.

this handset has definately lived up to its promise, few teething problems with OS but massive improvements with every OS they release.
Comparing this phone to the Iphone is pointless ans there will always be one thing better than the other. The Blackberry storm definately delivers a fantastic experience for users looking for something different. Remember that this is the first launch of such a handset from RIM. Not as if apple got it right first time... I have to say the next storm will definately exceed all expectatiosn by learning from customer feedback. In honesty, The Storm is a great handset, great phone and reliable, with a shed full of features packed in it. Some places it would maybe comprimise on, but others it massively impresses
