The worst mobile phones...ever!!!!

I thought to roll out this thread because we have seen some of the outrageous handsets rolled by the handset makers. One of them was Nokia 2280.

I have used this phone and I swear, I still wonder what Nokia was thinking while designing this one.

The keypad was horrible, battery was weak, antenna was ugly. This phone neither had soft edges nor sharp. Call quality was bad (Reliance to be partially blamed for this). Only good thing was price.

Which other handset you guys think should make into this list?

Motorola ROKR E2. Epic Phail! :lol:

k850i for it's price...

I can foresee 20 pages of argument between the krates and dreamcatcher. Please spare us the extra work.

EDIT: Stupid automerge!

Thread opened, knives are in the drawer, shotguns on the top shelf and nades in the drop box.

If anybody wants an arena, we got Fight-Club, just drop a post, it will be done.

see the new geeks in the forum

There are some N-Series Phails too. Like the N71, N92, N76 and N77. Ever seen any of these phones? :lol:

Add Nokia XpressMusic 5310. 5610.........Too much of bugs.

Also add Nokia N72, N76, N77 to the list.

Whoa, I had never seen the Nokia N71 ever...... :lol:

If considering SE, K850i was a bit buggy in the beginning because it was based on a new platform A200 but newer firmwares rectified that. It really isn't one of the worst phones.

well i posted K850i because it is priced at 17500 and in that range 6220 classic beats it hands down and it is having no better than samsung G600 which is priced at 14k

i said it sucks for it's price....

like the apple iphone for it's price

nokia 7610 is one of the slowest phone.........

Yea, Nokia 6220 scrapped from kolkata stores due to too many problems..keyboad cracking,paint peeling off :lol:

@karets

dont worry k850 suks fine with me.....!!!!!
dont take it to ur heart

SE P1i ...

sold out in 3 months for a loss of 4K.. it has awesome user interface that you need to be a detective to find each application. LOL

Samsung Serene and Serenata. Not exactly bad phones but still phailed. I guess Samsung was thinking a bit too ahead of time there.

Nokia N72, display got corrupted after 6 months, later come to know that all N72s prone to this issue.

^^ Not all. My friend is using it for more than a year with no problems.

atleast most N72, when I get the N72 to get serviced he asked "What N72 display problem?" without even asking any other question as it seems like he receive more complaints like this.

The worst phone I have used is the Spice D80.

This dual GSM phone really sucks. Always network goes to emergency mode. Reinsert the sims... again it works for a few hours.

@axxo - I too haven't seen any display problems with N72. My friends have been using it without any problems.

@harryneopotter - Yes, that's the one I was talking about. Moto F3.

Man you are really weird. On one hand you buy phones like iPhone 3G and N95 8gb and on the other hand also buy phones from companies like Spice.

That is a bit too extreme!

Well it is written "Krazy about Mobiles" under his name, and he probably means it

@Krazzy : There is nothing wrong with Spice phones. They are good and dependable. I also saw on one of the tech shows, they are coming out with phones with DVD players . Now how cool is that (from an Indian company)!

The Spice Movie Phone uses a new optical disk format developed by US firm Vmedia Research, which is also looking to introduce optical disk phones in the USA

After what happened to the UMD disk by Sony, do you really think this will be successful? I say Phail!

^^UMD STOPS pirates

if more and more company start implementing this UMD concept then it will be a hit

SE J200i, my nomination for the worst phone ever.

Other's that have been discussed in the previous posts..

N72 pretty decent phone. Never seen any problems with it.

6300... Have bought it 2 weeks ago. In love with the display. Yeah, the battery sux, but hey, power off the fone and charge it (for like 4 hrs.. I do it at night).... and it lasts a decent 2 and half days....

7610 - Slow compared to today's standards... But was a great phone during its time...
