BlackBerry Storm

The BlackBerry® Storm™ smartphone has the power and performance to drive your desires. Find out how you can connect to your world.

The Blackberry Storm is a touchscreen smartphone. The Storm’s brilliant high resolution screen does wonders at accentuating the suave looking icons as well as flattering the applications packed inside. The touchscreen is a bit different than any other – it is also a floating button that can be “clicked”. Pressing down on the touch screen actually clicks to activate any selected app or function.

The StormTM includes quad-band connectivity allowing operation in more than 195 worldwide locations; full HTML browsing; a 3.2 megapixel camera with video; visual voicemail; GPS and BlacBerry maps; and integration with BlackBerry's corporate business messaging platforms.

The Storm includes an accelerometer, allowing for motion control for functions like screen-flipping and otherwise. Its video playback is smooth and pristine, making the most of the 480×360 display.

Easy Touch Screen Navigation

With the BlackBerry Storm smartphone, select and type using touch technology—the screen is the keyboard. Typing is easy—highlight the letter on the touch screen and press the screen to make it appear in your message or document. And navigation is a breeze. Like a mouse, your fingertip moves the cursor across the screen.

Get More Out of Your Day

The HSPA network and the BlackBerry Storm smartphone’s 528-MHz processor combine to support your need to multitask and prioritize without falling behind or out of touch. Designed to provide you with access to your voice and data services at the same time, it helps you get more out of every day¹.

And when an event can’t be captured in a single instant, use sound and action to tell part of the story with the video camera.⁵
