HTC - Worst Battery Life But Superior Built Quality..

Samsung - Low End Phones Are Pathetic As Hell... Heat Up Like A Toaster.. Plastic Feel In Even The Flagship Devices.. Using Exynos Even They Know That This Chipset Heats Up Like Hell.. Although These Phones Run Like Beasts And Its Flasgships Have A Super Bright Amoled.. This Screen Is Such A Visual Treat.. Samsung Produces The Best No Nonsense Smartphones..

Sony - Beautiful UI.. Very Cool And Very Fast Indeed.. Best In Class Accessories.. Its Walkman And Camera Has More Features Than Any Other Smartphone.. The Most Beautiful Looking Smartphone Ever Belongs To Them.. You Can See Xperia Arc, Xperia Z.. From Generations To Generations They Produce The Best Looking Smartphones..

Micromax - Running Mediatek.. These Phones Are Cheap And Do A Fair Bit Of Job.. While Their Service Centres Dont Have A Good Support At All..

I had the HTC Hero as my first Android phone. I loved getting to know the platform and rooting it but everything else truly sucked. WiFi tether caused it to get so hot, I had to keep it sitting on a ziplock bag filled with ice, no kidding. Random reboots, 3 hour battery, tiny screen, worthless trackball and miniscule ROM. Then, the only thing better about my second Android phone, the 3VO, was the slightly bigger screen. Other than that, almost just as bad. Because of those two phones, I'm now a Samsung guy, writing this on my shiny GS5.

I haven't had many Androids. Started with old Nokia candybars (and one really old Samsung from like 2004).

The first Android I got was a HTC Incredible S, then a Motorola RAZR MAXX (non-HD), and now the HTC One M8. The One M8 is brilliant so far (having owned it for about half a week), the Motorola RAZR MAXX I actually gave to my mum after owning it for a few months, because I happened into a lot of extra money and went on an iPhone craze, but the HTC Incredible S would probably have to be the worst Android phone I had, out of those three. The headphone jack was on top, so it was on the bottom when it was in my pocket, and got filled with dust and dirt, which means I couldn't listen to anything on it after a few months (which, if I remember correctly, is one of the reasons I got an iPod Touch to listen to music with and that started my relationship with Apple in the first place), and the back had this weird elevation that went along the edges and around the camera. It was pretty nice to hold in the hand due to its relatively small size and contoured back, but it was really thick.

Also, I dropped it ONCE onto pavement, and the screen cracked, which I had to live with for quite a few months before I got the Motorola. I've dropped plenty of phones onto pavement before (especially the iPhone I had before the One, which has dropped onto pavement from chest height about 4 or 5 times, yet chucks along with no problems), and none have cracked. The HTC is the only phone I've had that has had its screen crack.

Oh, and not to mention it already had performance lag when I owned it, when it was still pretty new.

Kyocera Rise. No doubt one of the worst phones ever made. Came with Android 4.0, which it was completely incapable of running, half a gig of RAM (This was just 6 months ago)... It did come with a slide out QWERTY, which I loved, but after e months, it came loose and fell off. While I was texting. It would restart itself at random intervals for unknown reasons, freeze up, and refuse to turn off. Bought it as a cheap replacement phone until I got an upgrade.... Not worth it. Should have got a flip phone instead.

the worst by far? nexus 7 2013. this is the one device I only unlocked to get root + custom recovery, otherwise stock. problems from beginning with the touchscreen, never completely solved. also, various glitches such as permanent not responding settings or wifi toggle, I once had to completely reinstall rom to fix it! from countless custom roms I flashed on s2 or m7 never had such a bad experience as with stock android on N7!

[General Topics] Tornado15550:
The Galaxy Ace II X was the worst android device in my opinion. The battery life was terrible, the official TouchWiz based ICS OS lagged a lot, and it had limited storage without 4G. I know it was a low end phone, but I just couldn't use it. Simple things such as typing would result in lag and crashes.
[General Topics] opethehowdyman:
Galaxy Tab 3 7in. It is terribly slow and laggy when brand new and got worse in a week. Rooted and tried ROMs but only touchwiz based ROMs are available ( I guess because of a weird processor). Still slow ( but not as bad), but at least I was able to remove the Samsung bloat.
[General Topics] blakegriplingph:
It lacks multi-touch, too. Heard that this is due to the controller used.

The Allwinner A13 tablet I have was way worse, although I had some fun tinkering with it. Not only was the LCD being bonkers, it couldn't handle multitasking without any hiccups for like every five seconds.

Sent from my SCH-I535 using Xparent ICS Tapatalk 2
[General Topics] blakegriplingph:
Seems so. To make things somewhat more relevant to the topic, even though I haven't messed with a CDMA device yet (well, since there aren't any such networks here in the Philippines), I find them crap to deal with, mostly due to migration issues, i.e. you don't get to keep your phone easily if you move to a new number, or vice-versa. That and as device manufacturers have to adapt their lineup to certain markets, it's a bit of a drag for them to churn out special/bespoke variants of their phones to, let's say Sprint or Verizon. Hence why you guys sometimes end up getting Android updates eons after the GSM/international variants receive the latest builds.

HTC's!!!!!!

Im probably going to get a lot of hate for this but the worst Android phones ive heard of are the HTC's because most people I talk to around where I live are always complaining that there is something wrong with their HTC's whether its from battery life, to storage issues or even just low/poor performance. I've had a fair few Android devices in a short space of time and to be honest my favourites are Samsung's or Sony's(Depending on which model). Im pretty sure there are others that are probably just as good but only mainly dealt with them two manufacturers after I owned a "HTC Wildfire S" which was probably the worst android phone that I have owned and only had it for a short period of time.

Galaxy Nexus.

I've had a OG Droid, Razor & Razor Maxx, Galaxy Nexus, HTC One, LG G2.. Nexus was just underpowered with awful battery. It also felt like garbage in my hand. Over hyped!
[General Topics] 350Rocket:
I would agree that the wildfire is a crappy phone even though I've never owned one but as far as the rest of them my only complaint with HTC is them constantly abandoning them with no software updates after less than a year.

I had a nexus one almost 4 years old working perfect, before that an HTC desire and after that a desire hd. Then an htc one s which I traded to my friend that I owed big time for his htc desire which is almost 4 years old now and works perfect.

I bought a Samsung galaxy s3 for what I thought was a good deal thinking I could use it for a month and sell for a small profit. Turns out the charging port is shot, original battery was shot, I had to buy a new battery and charger to go with it. Now the auto rotate stopped working and its not software.

My sister also has had problems with her s3 and the international s3 has the sudden death syndrome problem.

My opinion is that Samsung has more hardware issues than HTC but they update their high end phones a lot longer.

well, it goes by many names. they called it the Samsung Exhibit II 4G, and then the Samsung Galaxy Exhibit. wait, then T-Mobile released a new phone with the same name? who knows why. it was a Galaxy S variant of sorts. had the same Hummingbird processor, same 512 MB of RAM, and same 480×800 resolution. it had TouchWiz 4 from the S II which made it lag out of this world. I should really root it and install cm11 and see how it runs. oh well. also, it was $189.99 while the Verizon Moto G was $91. lol.

When I switched to T-Mobile I couldn't afford a new phone just yet, so I borrowed a friend's old HTC Sensation 4G for a couple weeks. What a hunk of junk. Yeah, it's 3 years old, but up until very recently this phone was still available from T-M. And apparently HSPA 14.4Mb/s is "4G". Ironically, I got better data speeds from this than I was getting with LTE phone from Verizon. But the interface was laggy, it loved to randomly reboot, which reduced the already pathetic battery life. Plus, it had already been put through the ringer by its owner, and would only charge if I wrapped the USB cord around the phone to put pressure in one direction.

I didn't own this mobile, but my brother does. I must say, this mobile is the only Android phone which I cursed among all the other handsets.

The features of this phone are appropriate as per its cost, but just in order to give a variety Samsung launched this defensive mobile in the market.

Samsung Rugby. I actually loved how durable it was--the line of work I'm in requires a tough phone that can handle sliding down a steep slope--but the screen resolution was just too poor.

I wish Samsung would release a new version of the Rugby, with a better screen and a focus on the telecommunication (ie, phone) aspect at the expense of computing power, and keep the form factor the same as the last Rugby. There is a niche market for such devices for people working in remote areas where you need a phone to work as a phone, rather than as a game machine. I love the new Galaxy's, but they are waaay to fragile, and an awkward size. Slim, wide and tall = easily broken in a fall.

Micromax: Satisfactory Mobiles

Micromax HD is really an impressive handset. As compared to Samsung S Duos and Micromax Canvas HD, I will suggest to buy Micromax. The features are up to the mark and are good as per the price range. The only think that makes the mobile less handy is the quality. As compared to other renowned mobile manufacturing brands like Nokia, Sony, the quality of Micromax Camera is not as high but is satisfactory. The canvas HD is installed with 8 MP camera which is similar with that of 5 MP of Sony. This is the only difference that I have experienced in this mobile. Else no issue id present from my side .
