Being known as the first "iPhone killer" the blackberry storm is the the first blackberry touch screen. Whether it is actually able to live up to such expectations is something that we would have to wait for. However, it does impress as a performance-oriented device and doesn't disappoint when compared with the standards defined by existing BlackBerrys or other touch-screen models in the market. It does seem as if the overall feel from the current BlackBerrys has been retained to ensure that customers feel connected to the Storm. It uses the latest BlackBerry OS 4.7 along with having a somewhat similar design. Once you hold it, one aspect become very evident - it does feel like a sturdy device, built to last a lifetime and the smooth edges the subtle polished finish ensures a very commanding grip. Being a touch-screen, it was vital to have an impressive display screen and the Storm does deliver on that front, displaying a 3.25-inch VGA display that assures brightness and helps to enhance the details of all kinds of images. Screen provides a very sensitive feedback to users, and let you feel very at ease so that the choice of the function of your browser too much to provide. BlackBerry Storm boasts of an accelerometer which helps in switching the screen orientation between portrait and landscape mode as the phone is rotated from the normal vertical to a more horizontal position or even when moved from left to right. In addition, the adjustment of backlight brightness and font size can be done a minimum of effort.

Blackberry has created two great phones that have similar features. They include camera, built in GPS, Media Player, Video recording, maps, wireless e-mail, organizer, browser, corporate data access, phone, sms/mms. Although, they are different in physical appearance they have many of the same features and functions. Consumers will have to really dig when comparing and contrasting them before making a final decision.
For a more in dept look of the two cell phones, I am going to compare and contrast their most popular features starting with the Storm and then the Bold. The display windows of both has transmissive TFT LCD, Font size (user selectable), light sensing screen; supports over 65,000 colors. One however, has a 3.25 inch screen size with a high resolution of 480 x 360 pixel color display and the other has a 2.6 inch screen size with half VGA resolution of 480 x 320 pixel color display.
Next the camera on the first one comes with 3.2mp, auto flash, auto focus and 2x digital zoom. The second one only has 2.0mp with flash but is equipped with 3x digital zoom. Both may require a microSD card to enable the video recording feature depending on the amount of memory available.
The battery life has a slight difference. Stand by time is 15 days and the talk time is 6 hours vs. a stand by time of 13.5 days and talk time of 4.5 hours. Both have a removable/rechargeable cryptographic lithium cell battery.
You will not get lost with either phone because they both offer a built in GPS system and maps. These features allow you to plan and view your trip right on the screen, save a list of favorite places you like to visit and step by step driving directions to any location of your choice.
They both have built in 3.5mm stereo with headset compatibility, integrated earpiece/microphone, speaker phone and Bluetooth ready. However, one has a touch screen keyboard (allows you to type by touch) vs. a QWERTY keyboard (allows you to type on a regular keyboard) on the other. The built in microphone is a great asset to both phones because it allows users to send voice e-mails. This comes in handy when you are in a hurry, don't feel up to typing or want to give a message in person but are unable to.
They both have media player which allows you to watch video or audio formatted programs, allow you to edit your Microsoft word or PowerPoint slides (copy and past, adjust font and other formatting) and doubles as an iPod allowing users to create their own playist list for easy listening.
The Blackberry Storm and the Blackberry Bold are very similar with few differences. Overall the Blackberry Storm offers a little more. It offers better picture resolution, more digital camera MPS, a longer battery life and more built in memory. However, if you don't like touch screens and prefer the usual keyboard style, the Blackberry Bold offers it. There are such minute differences between the two; one would have to begin to look at styles, colors, prices and services to help them make a choice.
