Not the worst phone ever... but close – I like the range of apps; everything from games to music to education. They do tend to use a lot of internet use so be careful with your plans.

As a phone, it's awful. Slow to respond when texting, autocorrect is awful (but can be turned off, then you realise the letters are too close together!) Answering the phone is a chore; Speakerphone button hides when answering, not loud enough, only rings for a short amount of time (but I suspect that's a network issue, not the phone).

Internet and email are slow to load and the preloaded google maps are awful to use.

Every time I put the phone in my pocket, the mute button activates which is really annoying because I miss calls and texts.

Really, it's a novelty gadget that hasn't been thought through- a fancy iPod (which is actually the only feature that works properly on it...) Good range of apps. iPod function is good. Settings are easy to find and use. Slow internet, email and responsiveness when typing. Screen cracks easily and is expensive to replace. Battery life is short, even when not using internet. Home button breaks easily, expensive to replace. Heavy, clunky, too big for my little hands.
