BlackBerry Storm 9500 unboxed

Continuing on with our Blackberry testing this week we have the Blackberry Storm 9500. Here in the UK the Storm is a Vodafone exclusive although if you hunt around enough you’ll find a few retailers offering it SIM-Free.

At the moment you can barely walk past a billboard without seeing a Vodafone advert presenting the ‘Purpose Built for Vodafone’ adverts for the Storm or the adverts on TV talking about the touchscreen technology.

On the face of it the Storm looks like a decent phone, it’s on the large side and it’s lack of buttons is quite striking. We’ll have the full Blackberry Storm review up online in a few weeks but we’ll leave you with the unboxing video for now.
