Thread: Please give me reviews on the new blackberry storm 2?

I have the storm, not the storm 2. But I have heard that one main problem with it is that it has NO buttons on the screen. The storm has the four actual buttons at the bottom (call, menu, back, end call/off)

The Storm 2 has those same buttons, but they are integrated into the screen in the same bottom position. The Storm 1 which has those four buttons just below the screen.

Storm 2 is definitely a step up from the Storm 1. The most noticeable differences are texting is easier as the screen is more responsive, and more memory for apps.

The RIM BlackBerry Storm 2 adds Wi-Fi, more memory, and an updated operating system that brings a number of feature and user interface enhancements. The revamped SurePress touch screen allows for more precision, key rollover, and limited multitouch capabilities.

On a negative note BlackBerry browser isn't on par with the competition. While improved, the touch screen still takes some acclimation.
