You'd be a perfect example of that.

To give you an idea how bad phone it was, I'll just mention that it didn't even have a microphone. Yes, you read that right. A phone without a microphone. It did come with a head-set that had a microphone. Too bad that the headset had a propietory connector that was only manufactured by Motorola. Sales people in finnish phone shops had good laughs when I asked them if they stocked that headset.

Bought it from a sale bin for few pennies as a back-up phone for binge drinking etc. Expectations were not very high, but it failed on even those.

This is also my worst phone ever. The headset was so flimsy it stopped working in two days. A month after buying it it just stopped working. It was my first and last Moto. Never again

I had this too, and boy was it crap! The specs seemed OK, but the actual phone was terrible. I think that Siemens actually dropped out of the phone business soon after that.

The N97 seems to have been a disaster :D along with these bad stories, I can add one from a friend:

It was like an N97 Crank edition, as soon as it turned off, it wouldn't go on again. So she had to keep it on all the time, always having a charger around, sort of the same as what Jason Statham did.

She's gotten 3 replacement N97's in total, all with the same problem. Then she was allowed to take a different model :p


I almost chose the N97 with my new 2 year subscription, but while browsing the internet, my eye caught a small image of a device that was a little bit more expensive. The N900! best phone I ever had hahah and I could've missed the small picture and wouldn't even have known about it..

Hi,

Worst phones;
- The Samsung SGH-i300 - Windows phone with a 3GB harddrive - drained battery like crazy - sold
- FSC LooX T830 - also Windows, flawed h/w keyboard - sold
- N93 - great h/w and camera but buggy s/w - sold
- X6 - highly overrated "version" of the xm5800 (IMO) - returned within 30 days...

/Per

In my experience... the samsung star . . . i couldnt even download themes and there were two crappy themes to choose from. . . i never bought a samsung phone again. . . when i got my n900 . . . its pretty decent. . . everything was customizable . . . everything was perfect with the n900 except for the part where nokia stopped supporting it . . . why dont they learn from apple, they upgrade their devices almost everytime a bug in their OS comes out. . . but over all... the n900 is a good phone....
