BlackBerry Storm 2, first impressions hit the web

As the BlackBerry Storm 2 becomes official, the first reviews are starting to pop on the web. So far, the first impressions are quite positive. Obvious stuff like the clicking of the display (it’s a feature: SurePress), WIFI, memory size, multi-touch and some physical design elements have been improved. The web browsing seems better even if it is far behind the iPhone. There’s still no OpenGL support, and that means no 3D gaming/apps.

Interestingly, none of the early reviews mentions if the phone reacts any faster than the first Storm which was very slow - particularly when it comes to graphics speed (scrolling…). That was one of the most annoying aspect of the first Storm in my opinion. There’s also no comparison with the iPhone 3GS and that’s too bad because it would be informative. These are the things that you should keep an eye for, if you plan on getting one.
