Panasonic EB-3901 aka Panasonic Eluga DL1

and it still costs 300 Euro (wtf) !!! http://geizhals.at/eu/panasonic-eluga-schwarz-a739488.html

i bought this for ~190 € sold it for a 100 € and i say its worth ... well ... not one cent - i say panasonic has to give it away for free (imo) because its that bad or lets say it like this -

they have to pay you money to take it :P

why ? :

because :

it has a VERY VERY VERY VERY poor battery life (4 - 8h with regular usage no gaming or watching videos - LOL)

- overheating (while browsing... while browsing !! not watching a video or something - just regular weather check or mail etc. trololol :D )

- haptic suxxx bad (ohh shiat!!!)

- slow and laggy as hekk !

also the voice call quality is ... well ... lets guess ... bad ... so bad ... that everytime people were asking me ... "hey i cant hear you r u there ?" ^_^

+

bloatware , no sd card (only 8 GB internal memory) , no root , only upgrade to ICS (still lags as fudg) no custom roms ... so ... my advice ... stay far far away from this ... "smartphone" :D

conclusion:

big waste of resources.

The very first 7 inch Samsung Galaxy Tab was really a super-crappy device. I never felt so much like a beta tester. They had not a single app optimized for this screen size/resolution, never provided any updates to more recent Android versions (was running on 2.1 AFAIK), and the device crashed at least once a day. When I sold it just a year later I lost a lot of money.

Second worst was a HTC Desire. I wanted to get it, but two devices that I ordered were broken. Both had a broken speaker on arrival. That disappointed me so much that I got another phone (guess it was a Moto Defy, which was great).

Best Regards,

[General Topics] the51Cness:
I was pretty unhappy with my htc evo 3d at times. One of the main reasons i moved to nexus phones was the number of hoops and backflips to be performed in order to get a custom rom on that phone. Moreover, htc didnt release source for half of it, so almost nothing ever worked properly in aosp roms. especially 3d which in turn defeated the purpose of the phone in my opinion. Much happier now with my galaxy nexus and nexus 5

Technically I didn't own this device (because it was my sister's), but the Huawei M860 is the absolute worse device I've every laid my hands on. Not only was it built cheaply and was demean of any character, but it was very hard to just root the device. Also even adding a custom ROM didn't help how bad it lags.

Giantic bottom bezel, the screen is tiny and the resolution is horrible. You can see the pixels from 10 meters away. And it's extremely slow, like so slow that scrolling pages in the app drawer is really laggy.

Nexus 5 - Horrible battery, get hot pretty quick (32-36 celsius while doing normal stuff eg browsing/video) and oh crap gps sensor (takes tooooooo long to detect location on maps) on Kitkat and Lollipop.

I get around 3-4 hours SOT on my nexus 5 stock rom (no custom kernel or any other crap as they don't make any difference on battery). Don't get me wrong, i like nexus 5 but it's not for me, it's just not a phone that i can rely on because of extremely inconsistent battery, crap GPS and i honestly don't care about fancy Lollipop (after 1 month of test).

So I ditched Nexus 5 and bought HTC One M8, can't be so much happier with this device; car dock app, better battery life/management, boomsound effect with headset (music lover) and pretty much everything i need are all covered.

I could have waited for HTC One M9 but with LG G3/Note 4/Nexus 6 already went ahead with 2k display technology, so I instantly bought HTC One M8 because I knew HTC/Samsung/Sony will release their next phone with 2K display.

I hate 2K display, they are not properly optimised for smartphone yet, they use up too much processing power, decreases performance, get heated up pretty quick and very bad battery.

So I'm staying with HTC One M8 for very long time :)

Tie between Moto Photon 4g and Galaxy Nexus. I loved both phones. The photon's hardware and build quality were exceptional. Motoblur was good. Decent camera and great call quality. The way moto handled the never to happen update to ICS and locking down the bootloader really hurt. Gnex was exactly opposite. Wide open bootloader, best xda dev support. There was some problems with the hardware though.. Crappy camera, bad battery life, speaker volume too low. Also I was flabbergasted when it didn't get KK. What kind of nexus only gets 1 update? KK roms NEVER got data switching to work well. Either toggle airplane mode, reboot, try calling voicemail maybe it'll connect then. The only real solution was to stay on JB. I sure will miss my gnex though.. Seriously.

LG Optimus 4X HD before I flashed a custom rom on it.

Loved it for about six months (coming from an iPod Touch 4th gen, anything was an improvement at that point), and then it began lagging at all points. It got to the point where the dialer lagged so much I couldn't answer a call before it went to voicemail. Luckily there's some good development for it, because that's the only thing that makes it remotely usable.

It's kinda sad though, 'cause it's a pretty good piece of hardware, LG's software support for it was just terrible (and should be considered a crime).
[General Topics] josip-k:
I own an 4x hd too,as my second device. The 4x was like an experiment from LG, they put an tablet's chipset into a phone. It didnt really go well. The phone has good dev support,but its overall crap. TERRIBLE battery life,the best i could do was like 1h30min SOT,i mean,Cmon. And that's with normal usage,and with just 2 cores used,underclocked to 1000mhz. It's not even usable for daily usage man. And the overheating,oh my. It's not normal. You play clash of clans for 10 minutes,and you cant hold your phone in your hand anymore,and i mean that litteraly. I hope to see it improve in the future, because despite it being pure crap,it's hardware is capable of doing much. Tegra 3 is a powerful chipset yet. And 1gb of RAM is also good, and the ULP nvidia gpu is also decent. So maybie the future will be better. We will se :)

This is a thread for android phones, that didn't run android.

My worst phone ever was the xperia play. 512MB of flash memory? Single core? Bogged down 2.3.4? I couldn't install my apps on it even or games because they all take up space and there's only about 150-200MB Left for the owner to use. Can't move everything to the SD. It was slow at running games too. And the boot loader was locked.

So by the list you can see how it would be my worst android. Even if I could unlock the bootloader it would still be the second worst device I have owned. Spec wise it is better than both Htc's but during their day there was nothing that could compare to them.
