The Storm3 is equipped with a Removable Li-Ion 1230 mAh battery, a 5 MP, 720p main camera. The device uses a Mini-SIM configuration.

Factory Reset on the BlackBerry Storm3 works differently than it does on Android, since this platform uses its own menus and terminology. Follow the steps below, written specifically for this device rather than adapted from Android instructions.
