Boat Anchor

I have had the privlege to use about 30 phones over the past few years, and by far this one is the worst.
I returned it yesterday and went back to my curve. Wow - forgot how easy and fast using a blackberry was.

While liking the phone at first, it just took too long to do simple things (even lag looking at pics). Making a call should not take 4 clicks -- its a PHONE after all!!

When all is said and done, this first try at a touch screen by BB is good for anchoring a boat. Maybe they'll be something better next fall.

4 clicks? where do you get this? I press the green phone button and it pulls up the phone then dial. Or i press contacts and find the contact i want to call and hit the phone button and it dials that contact. 1 or 2 clicks max. Not sure how you get any simpler than that.

it is 4 clicks when you factor in ridiculous lag and the phone not recognizing the click. exchanged it twice...didn't help, upgraded software, no help.

Love the Curve and thaqt is where i'll stay for now.

Until the next big thing, enjoy your boat anchor.

🤣

Never had any software version not recognize "the click"

1/4 turn on 2 screws on the back of the phone or a business card inserted would have taken care of any possible unresponsive non-clicking issues in the corners.

Enjoy your Curve and thanks for stopping by and sharing your sea stories 😁
