Nokia 9210, such a let down after the 9110. The 9500 was amazing to follow it though. I love my n97 and n900, I'm surprised at such n97 hate. It's one I've missed the most after switching, even 9300 to e90 (I own every single nokia communicator style phone).

hmmm, been using nokia for ages, but unabashedly i gotta say the n97, the damn thing was laggy as hell, not what i expected from nokia's 'top-end' model, Gawd, it almost even dissuaded me from getting my n900......oh the horror!

easy. Motorola A830. One of the first batch of 3G phones released when Three started up in Australia.

Ugly. Massive. UI was terrible. Didn't always work properly (though could have been 3 network related).

I went in for a job interview at Motorola, and was thinking of bringing in the phone so that I could tell them I wanted to work for them so that *this* would NEVER happen again!

Samsung Memoir, I returned 3 memoirs and cancelled the service with that line. I was TIRED of being stuck with my N82 for 2 years and lost my mind for a moment to the 8MP hype only to find out that NOBODY makes hardware components like Nokia. The audio recording is junk on Non nokia phones due to cheap microphone/speaker combinations. Memior ruined wedding videos, same goes for the Highlight, Cliq and HD2: All subpar hardware components. Record a video with loud background noise on a non Nokia and you will hear the difference. Even the E63 records better audio during videos than most competitor devices.

Philips Fizz http://www.gsmarena.com/philips_fizz-143.php

Came free with a new plan I took. Was super thin, but otherwise gargantuan. I returned it the same day and upgraded to Philips Spark.

Now that thing was good. I finally replaced it after several years of intercontinental travel and faithful service, with in my mind the best simple phone on the planet, the Siemens S35. I still have very fond memories of it.

I then upgraded to the next crappiest phone, the 3G NEC e606, but I actually kept this one since it was the ONLY pocketable choice on 3 Australia when the service was launched. The other alternative was that hideous Motorola thing already mentioned, and it was huge.

Two good things about that NEC phone were that the video calling actually worked and that was nice, and it was the first widely used phone (in Australia at least) that had a super high quality sample of an old telephone's metallic bell ring tone.

Of course before these, I had numerous analogue phones, including the second generation Motorola brick, a tiny Ericsson and countless company issue Nokia GSM phones, so I have some perspective...

that was my first phone! It was ugly but it did the job of making calls. I don't even think we knew how to (or even could?) sms back then.

Still wouldn't call it my "crappest" phone ever though.
