Advantages: Big bright sceen and slimline device

Disadvantages: Poor battery life, tocuh screen is clumsy and unpredictable

My experience with the Blackberry storm model hasnt been been as good as I thought it would be. I have found numerous issues with the device through normal use which have let it down slightly.

Firstly the touch screen looks great but does not work anywhere near as good as for instance the Iphone. Trying to navigate through various menus and selecting emails is a real problem and the device constantly picks the wrong option.

When talking on the phone your ear will also constantly press the screen and mute yourself so nobody can hear you speaking.The battery is also poor, lasting one day at best and with regular calls being made, less than a day at best. Also when turning the device on its side to get the full keyboard you have to shake the device to activate it on the screen.

The screen being big is good for video and pictures and also reading emails too and the device is quite thin so fits into pockets fine.

Summary: Decent looking phone, let down by poor touch screen
