Description:

BlackBerry Storm2 9550 is the second generation BlackBerry with a touch-sensitive screen, successor of the highly-anticipated Storm. The keys on the front are now touch-sensitive as well, and the screen no longer uses the SurePress technology, which made the display of the first Storm uncomfortable to use. The Storm2 also adds Wi-Fi, but the other features are similar and include a 3.2-megapixel camera, GPS and a full HTML browser.

Storm 1 vs Storm 2

Today fmcountry

9 out of 10

I am also an indirect Verizon agent and agree that the software is a big key to the differences

in these two phones. Except for the doubling of the memory and adding wi-fi, the biggest difference

is Blackberry's new OS 5.0. Add the new software to the Blackberry Storm 1 and it's a whole new animal.

If wi-fi isn't a huge need and you're not pusing your memory limits, there's certainly no big reason to

rush out and grab a Storm2. Upgrade your software first ( it's free ) and experience your new phone.

OS not the phone

4 Nov 2009 Indirect Agent

8.3 out of 10

I am a Verizon Agent and one thing people need to keep in mind is that Blackberry also just updated the OS.  The Storm 2 and 1 both have a new OS 5 now.  With the OS update Storm 1 runs just as good as Storm 2 just without WiFi.  I've had a Storm 1 for about a year and as soon as I updated to OS 5 it was like a brand new phone (A storm 2 basically). I've even had enough issues with my storm that verizon offered me a new phone.  Customer service offered me a  number of other phones but said a Storm 2 wouldn't make a difference seeing as they run the same OS.

All I'm saying is don't junk Storm 1 and run for a Storm 2 until you run the OS update on your Storm 1.

I've waited a long to get the storm 2 and that I finally have it I found that there is anything wrong with it. It has a great battery life then the first storm did and its faster too. I very happy with the improvement with this phone I haven't found a let down in this phone.





Battery is great and is very quick.
Nothing at all!!
