Yeah I’ve had this phone for over a year. I was so excited when I got it but now I realize what a total piece of cap it is. I constantly have to yank the battery. When I use it for over thirty minutes it becomes hotter than a toaster oven. The web browsing is slower than an ardvark. And watching youtube videos is impossible. It cuts out like every five seconds for five seconds. Why even give the phone internet capabilities? Can’t wait til Oct. when I can upgrade to the droid x. I’m making no attempt to sell this. I’m taking a sledge hammer to this POS.

I purchased mine through ebay .. I unlocked it thinking i had a prize .. This phone totally sucks .. The phone just drops calls . Try to charge it. it sits on the charger for about 3 days. I swapped out with my daughter figuring it was me . That i wasn’t tech savy .. Within the hour she returned it back to me and said get your money back mom …. Your Phone Sucks … But i bought it from ebay and time has expired , so now i gotta eat this phone …..

The storm sucks in every way. Browser low and can’t load simple pages. Contact are even worse since last update. BB support are some of the most incompetent peaple.

I can’t believe I’m stuck with this shit for 6 more months. It should be a crime to sell us such junk. Can’t even get my money back to upgrade. We need laws to protect us from these phone companies and manufactures.

Don’t ever say a BB is like a iPhone no comparison BB sucks in every way.

Proud owner of the Storm 2! I am a heavy user of the blackberry for years and very very happy about the Storm 2. Swapping over to the screen from the keyboard takes time and each day I get faster. Was with the Bold exact the same, after a few days it felt naturally. There are many reports that the storm sucks, but that also counts for the shit phone of Motorola or the iPhone.

Of course there are bad reports of the Storm 2… but you can also find them for the iPhone, Nokia, HTC or the Motorola… even the new iPad is already called on the internet the ‘iTampon’ and lot of users speak very negative about it… how they can know it is bad when it is even not on the market!!!!

If someone is interested to buy the Storm or an another phone, don’t follow the internet always. Some iPhone users bashing on anything what has the name Blackberry. They even don’t own the phone and talk shit about it! Contact a happy user of the phone and try it out by yourself… then you will hear stories from both sides.. and that counts for each phone.

Run my own business and here 8 very satisfied Storm 2 users. When we got this new phone, I let my employees play with the phone for one day and they all decided to have the Storm 2….

I have had 2 Storm Handsets. This phone really does suck. It locks up. Its slow, the keyboard sucks…. To top it off, Roxio Media Manager kept trying to install. I spent a half day with tech support RIM and they still didn’t fix it. The next day I got to a tech support person at Blackberry that knew what they were doing… problem finally fixed…..

I am planning on switching to the Motorola Droid ASAP!

We need to unite and get the word out there that this is an inferior piece of equipment. I have wasted so much time because of the storm….

I also Googled “blackberry storm sucks” and was surprised to many many web sites with this text. This thing was the biggest waste of money. My wife and I bought this in hopes of having contact with our schools, work e-mails and internet. HUGE JOKE!! Internet is so slow I could walk to the place I was looking up and ask the question my self, dropped calls, camera activates on it’s own, constant lock ups, 1/2 screen displays, lost contacts, disorganized and not even close to a touch screen. Rip Off don’t by one. We have been with Verizon for 6 to 7 years and want to get out.

I agree with the last statement…. This phone is a piece of shit. The absolute worst ever I’ve ever owned. Our purchasing guy thought was he was cool by purchasing these, what a mistake.

I’ve been into Verizon four times to have the phone replaced or serviced. Everytime I was there I stood in line with another Storm owner complaining of the same problems. Every time Verizon reps with a straight face would lie through their teeth claiming the Storm was their flagship phone and had rave reviews.

My only hope that anyone looking to get a Storm or Storm 2 looks at these comments before falling into Verizon’s shit trap. If you need to have a Blackberry don’t buy the Storm.

As I was balling my eyes out of frustration caused by the Storm, I googled “blackberry storm sucks” and up came a long list of links. This article hits the nail on the head, this phone is a piece of SH!T.
