[QUIKKSTAR]

RIP Blackberry

[brilliantsunshine98]

does this phone require data plan?

[snk9045]

@brilliantsunshine98 all blackberry phones require a data plan. besides unlocked ones

[travie97]

@brilliantsunshine98 yeaaaah

[KingofComputing]

i'm an apple guy all the way, have had macbook pro's, imacs and a mac pro eight core... but this phone is much better than an iphone

[MrMautumbo]

Storm2 RULZ!!!!! =D

[tylarcorey]

@MrMautumbo i know i have a storm 2 :)

[MrMautumbo]

@JannelleEmma you suck!!

[MyCommentsMatter1]

This is the best blackberry ever please come to sprint

[Ninja26806]

The Evo 3D will be the best device =D

[YouHateGasgara]

@mickmickmkup545 That's not that much $ these days.

[YouHateGasgara]

The Droid X is a better phone. The best, in fact.

[markmeshark]

@YouHateGasgara You're wrong. Currently the LG Optimus 2X is the best phone.

[elijahaguilar24]

@YouHateGasgara all the way!!!

[YouHateGasgara]

I recommend the Motorola Droid X by Verizon. It's only $569 U.S. dollars without a contract.

[superkid24]

@SonicUnleashed455 This isn't a Cosmos review. If you are comparing the Cosmos and Storm, then it's not even a competition. Storm wins.

[JunierMahri246]

should i get the storm 2 or the droid?

[dougieaka]

it looks good put it on phone dog

[dougieaka]

it looks good put it on phoe dog

[xGRiiZZLY]

i just called verizon like 30 min. ago and they are sending this phone to me for free ! i have the storm 1 now and ive had it for over a year and a half and it finally is shitting out on me. terrible phone!!!. but i hope the storm 2 is really good. cant wait till i get it :)

[coreys96n00maximas]

I had the storm 1 and hated it but the storm 2 is way better I've had the storm 2 for 3 weeks and its the best phone to me the extra memory is a plus and the wifi is good to its better looking than the first one has less bugs and glitches a amazing phone now I see why they have a site called crackberry because its addictive rim did well on the storm 2

[silentleaf12]

well i wanna get the storm but i dont know if i should so i thought about bold or curve which one

[71PITTSBURGHPENGUIN]

@LividLeon I have this phone, and the screen looks just as good as the iPhone 4 in my opinion.

[LividLeon]

I was going and get this phone but the biggest draw back is it 65,000 colours screen most Nokia and other phone have 16,700,000 colours screen so a HQ video look beautiful and detailed. If you like to watch videos get an N8 or an Android OS.

1st Android Power with great UI and features.

2nd Iphone

3rd and 4th

The UI in the blackberry is better but beside BBM the blackberry can't beat the Symbian operating system when it comes to features.

[aw010287]

Does it have a built in speaker for playing music loud. Can u make a video on how loud the music plays on it. & the internet please & thank u.

[xchoib0195x]

haha bberrydog? it should be blackdog.com

[MissFortissimo101]

should i get this

[MissFortissimo101]

@MissFortissimo101 or the storm 2

[Socko818]

I drop this phone screen broke but it still I got a replacement in mail when my dad went activate it at verizon retailer it didn't so I got another one in the mail and now it doesn't play sound and make a static sound when I call people now I might need another cmon blackberry make your phones better

[MrIpodtouch121]

storm suck does not have a keyboard



[Grandvision100]

iPhone is the best..... Blackberry is good too but the storm sucks.... Android phones are just fantastic... Period... I have an iPhone myself.

[Cow97Tipper86]

What's your favorite phone? Like out of all the ones you have reviewed

[jranderson224]

30 people wasted thier money on an iphone

[twisterspin24]

see i need a full touch screen phone i would get the torch but im not a big fan of the keyboard

[ChimaTheKilla]

yeo blackberry aren't really for kids not many apps, 3.2 MP camera, exc these is a MANS PHONE FOR MANLY PEOPLE

[TheTechnologyMonkey]

@ChimaTheKilla

indeed, blackberry try to remember the primary functions of a phone, texting and calling, that's why their qwertys are awesome :)

[Wolf15r]

@ChimaTheKilla I always thought the berry series was a bitch phone. Black Jack 2 had a more of man name but you simple minded fucks don't shit about anything. Most of your are just simple marketing drones.

[ChimaTheKilla]

@Wolf15r to be truthful I got a new phone and it is not a blackberry. I like the phone before not because of the blackberry name it is because of the indicator for messages and the messeges don't stop everything I am doing like the iphone. Apple got the drones not so much of blackberry

[plutoeyes1]

Does a keyboard flip out?

[LiveLifeStudios]

@plutoeyes1 well obviosly he would of showed you it!?

[ChimaTheKilla]

@plutoeyes1 no blackberry torch does

[cjbig26]

is there going to be a storm 3 out by the holidays?

[ChimaTheKilla]

@cjbig26 mostlikely not RIM just made 3 phones Blackberry Torch, Blackberry Bold 3, and Blackberry Style so probably not

[VenomFan1989]

@ChimaTheKilla Is the blackberry storm 2 a good phone to get ?

[ChimaTheKilla]

@VenomFan1989 yea but there are much better phones out though

[homestar702]

Who has the LovePerson Wi-Fi? That's a weird name for Wi-Fi...

[00Rebirth00]

I went from a Motorola Droid to this Storm 2. Fucking amazing. I love BlackBerry, and I was getting really tired of Android. Those of you who bitch and whine about this phone sucking, are not using it correctly. Also, can't wait for the Storm 3. :D

[jeff30458]

lol I have a droid 2 and I'm going back to the storm 2. Its been a while since I've had one, but I've had both the storm and the storm 2 and I have to say that I don't realize what all the negativity is about. I loved both of the phones. By the way I can't wait for noah to start making videos regularly again regardless of what channel he's on.

[MinistryofGaming]

@MrPresidentVirg this is review packaging, its not the real thing.

[AdrianXIV]

my bro has this phone its actually really good i love it and the touchscreen is awesome unlike what alot of people say the surepress screen makes it so much easier to type then other touch screen phones

[ipodtouchnumeronefan]

noah is a beast!

[DAVIDDONKEYKON]

anybody reccomend this for texting/internet wifi phone? i ext a lot and have to have internet on the go

[zamant88]

'the quick brown fox, jumps over the lazy dog'- That has all the letters of the alphabet,

[Stabiloten]

I am using an Xperia X10 now, im quite satisfied with that. But my next phone will be blackberry, no doubt!

[BawbaWaltas]

I want this phone :(

[jaynavygrey]

@MLGFoolKMR the tour has the worst trackball problems

[Ddubya77]

Can you call anybody with this phone?? Isn't that what phones are for? All these phones just fucking annoy me...

[yates5668]

[GavinSpenceR18]

I like droid x

[RealAppleFan]

BlackBerry > iOS, Android, webOS

[jchs12]

Should i get iphone 4 or bb storm 2

[ausmcc]

@jchs12 that should not be hard....iphone 4

[HappiiSmiles316]

@ausmcc iphone 4 has re calls and technical problems and people had to take it back.

[HappiiSmiles316]

@jchs12 bb storm 2 trust me. The iphone 4 has so many technical difficulties. And re calls. ALOT of people had 2 take it back.

[wesTbruce]

@jchs12 bb storm 2, my friend has the iphone 4 and he has so many problems with it.. its freezes when he's taking a video or pictures. it also randomly closes out the app he's in, its just bad

[sexyboi142]

[niemeyer18]

@valentino1123 verizon is better(:

[db28301]

@valentino1123 I-Phone 4 is a better phone, and At&T dosnt have the biggest area, but ive had no problem

[patrick5158]

[shadowschyther]

[den22606]

[VideoSk8Rs34]

my sister has the lg dare and i HATE the touchscreen on it, is the storm's screen like the dare's?

[Nebsterification]

@VideoSk8Rs34 no way! the dares touch screen cant even be compared to the storm's! the storms screen is 100% better

[donedealD]

@5turnerderek yo user name has my name it

[jacob0cullen]

omg i got this phone and absolutely HATE it, its terribke! freezes up, its sloooooooooow as anything...

[youngchoppagang1]

is this a good phone cause i dont want to get a bad phone and i read alllthese bad stuff bout it i need pros and cons

[jacob0cullen]

@youngchoppagang1 i wouldnt get this phone if i was you, its freezes VERY often, and is terribly slow downloading apps

[youngchoppagang1]

@jacob0cullen do u think that its a upgrade for that yet

[jacob0cullen]

@youngchoppagang1 probably, but its not always bad, like it freezes up at the worst possible times, it makes you delete your txts and emails, but its not ALWAYS terrible

[isabarriga]

Why Was There No Booklets and Software In The Box and Just The Phone Chargers Holster Maybe and Stereo Headsets

[dylan1171]

i want this phone so badly hopefully im getting it over the summer. but when is the blackberry storm 3 coming out ? and i have at&t but i want verizon just because of this phone

[ThelastVee]

hopefully, i get mine tomorrow

[msg4lifesucka]

@Default1235678 Can you have a signature too? like at the end of the text msg?

[msg4lifesucka]

Hey i text to around 10 thousand a month and i like this phone, would it be good for a big texter like me? please answer

[916Pepsi]

I love how they went all out on the accessories...(sarcasm)

[sirvegeta]

I just did a phone upgrade and got mine coming a day from now. Closest thing i've had to a touch screen phone was a Razr-2. Not alot of touch anything on that. But I saw this and figured hey, it's affordable, sleek, sexy, and blackberry is a recognized name. Hopefully my first blackberry experience is a good one!

[Socko818]

Just got mine today love it so far

[BrianC831]

Does it have threaded messaging?

[2010HeartGold]

@BrianC831 yes it does

[agent00immpression]

u rock noah

[jetmedic997]

should i get storm 2, htc droid eris or palm pre plus

[MMegaminx]

should i get this or the curve 8530???

[jPrincex69]

i wonder if this wil sometime come out for tmobile.

[jetmedic997]

you can unlock it and us it with other networks

[samuh4864]

its because my parents are tired of paying 100 buck a month for a iphone!!

[jacob0cullen]

My mom is getting this phone for me, (i'm 13 so it's not weird) but is this a good choice for a first smartphone?

[sjstennis94]

@jacob0cullen I would go with the droid.... Droid Does haha wow...

[TopBoyTay]

@jacob0cullen YES* Good choice:)

[senorseis66]

@jacob0cullen meh, there not as fun as android or iphones, for kids. but still cool man!

[jacob0cullen]

@senorseis66 i had the blackberry for all of a month befor it broke, dnt do it... liek fo sho

[Rubbissh]

@jacob0cullen yeah dude i would go with this instead of the droid

[XOPINKTEAM]

storm 2:)

i was told its better.

[samuh4864]

i was wonder if you can you use this phone on metro pcs????

[xclaimer365]

no, verizon locks their phones down tight

[GJJDGDJJF]

yes if you buy an unlocked one

[ProbablyCoolerThanU]

HTC HERO

[xxcharmed1xx]

i want this phone but i dont wanna renew my contract after mine is up kuz verizon sucks!!

[uptdc2008]

well go to shity at&t lol

[theman4221]

i tried out the droid and the storm 2 yesterday. the droid was hard 2 txt with. i really like the feel of the storm 2. prolly gonna get 1 for my bday

[holyandannointed]

@theman4221 I'm getting a Blackberry for my birthday, I'm getting it in August but my birthday is in September.

I always say, TREAT YOURSELF on your Birthday, and if someone is getting it for you then I hope you enjoy it.

[colby7289]

Im getting mine tomorrow!!!! I was in love with the Storm 1 so I hope I wont be disappointed by the Storm 2! You cant go wrong with a Blackberry!!!

[pockmarkedbuttocks]

Will you let me know if you like the Storm2? I might get that cuz I gots the Storm 1 right now

[swiftnesscents86ish]

ive neva owned a iphone but ive owned several blackberry devices including the storm 1....blackberry is the best once you update your browser and fill it with music the the best phones not 2 mention the storm 1s camera was amazing....iva had the touch diamond phones and samsung touch phones but known of them are better...like i said i have neva had an iphone but i sure the only difference is the amount of apps iphone has 2 offer

[winterboy1995]

I have the storm 1 i love it. It sucked at first but then the new software update came out and it's as fast as grease lightning. I'm sure the storm 2 is a great device also.

[droid366]

For the "One pawed bandit" is it just the phone with no contract?

[newman72tech3]

duh

[IMP4EVR]

@Nine5phore getting it this weekend, let me know how it goes!

[415mac415]

can you flash it to metro?

[ThatAboutDoesIt]

grab the plastic!! you can do it

[jjbjjohn]

I hate the storm 1

always freezes

would prefer a DROID ERIS!!!

[buttchinsrweird]

u make it look bad. ur big ass fingers mess everything up and then blame the phone, wat the hell? why dont u use collaboration and then say shit.

[ranaye14]

do you mean why dont you calibrate the device? and i believe he said, he should not impose gestures from another device on to this interface, as it may not be the same? jesus, its a free review. if you dont like it, dont watch, and go in blind. it was very helpful and educational for a free review.

[331732495]

can you take the clicking off?

[zackam1306]

i really like this but

IPHONE

[drakeknowstechnology]

i am 13 and i just got the storm 2 and i love it to death. it is so durably i dropped it in a dog bowl full of water and it works fine still.=]

[punahawaiipball]

this or droid?

[darrellmusic]

depends wat you wanna use it 4

[darrellmusic]

lol yeh played with strom2 way easy to rext on lol this guys is just text challenged lol but hey he is old lol

[darrellmusic]

yeh i played with both today droid AUSOME 4 customization but DAMN!! TEXTING WAS IMPOSSIBLE but then played woth the storm 2 WAY SEXY and texting was like haveing an orgasim lol sooo im really confused now lol

[SR2GTABEAST]

Great review. Ok so I'm deciding between the tour and the storm, I've had two touch screen phones, so I'm famaliar with the qwarty( Idk how it's spelt) keyboard but i text slot help me our here

[Maxxtris85]

QWERTY is easy to spell just look at your computer keyboard/or phone and just type from left to right Q to Y thats where they got the name lol.

[ozy18708]

i cant decide! i love the txting on the curve and bold! how is the txt interface on the storm 2? like on the curve and bold, the txt interface is like your IM'ing

[jagcutie404]

yeah, it has threaded texting which is nice

[lunaphs1]

love this phone, im so glad i got this phone

[darrellmusic]

how is the customization on this im stuck between this and the droid help!!

[killersquirrel122]

if the bb storm 2's regular web borwser was as fast as the droid . and if it had live tv/vcast tv it would be best phone on the market

[ToastToGo]

I'm kind of thinking on getting the Storm 2...hopefully I can find a faster web browser for it.

[theCOOLkidd69]

....but thats what their for business?? lol

[mollyedwards35]

it is a click btw there are four quaters that are buttons.. the old storm was the whole screen but this one is more responsive with the four pannels
