Not a good phone

I had this phone for a month before returning it. It's a great concept, but horribly designed. The touchscreen is frequently unresponsive and freezes without warning. Messaging on this phone was ok, but thats only because you have to use the qwerty keyboard which was pretty good except for the top row of buttons which were cramped underneath the sliding screen. The bad part was, to access many features on the phone, you HAVE to use the touchscreen. I had already been contemplating returning it and when I heard that it could start on fire, it was off to the AT&T store that afternoon. The Quickfire's concept really appealed to me, but its cheap design, horrible touchscreen, lack of features, and ability to kill me was really a turnoff.

Pros

Good Concept
QWERTY keyboard wasn't bad.

Cons

Cheap Build
Horrible Touchscreen
It's deadly.

These phones have been recalled by AT&T after they became the worst phone AT&T released.  The Liquid filled battery comment is retarded and the person who wrote it is completely wrong.  Be careful with this phone, if you put the original charger in the phone upside down it can cause a huge malfunction in the device and there have been reports of the batteries bursting violently.

Pros

Cool Design

Cons

Huge Malfunctions

Just letting you guys know...the reason why your battery won't charge mroe than 1/3 of the way is because it is a liquid battery. Liquid batteries charge off of "memory." This means that the level of the liquid in the battery depends on how long the battery will last.

Here is your problem

When you first got the phone, you probably charged it completely. The phone comes with a 2/3 full battery of life when it is opened out of the package. This means that if you charge it right away, that the liquid is only charging 1/3 of the battery, and because of the memory, that's all it will ever charge. Now granted for the first few weeks you will get a full charge, but over time, the memory will kick in and you will only get 1/3 of a charge.

Whenever you have a liquid battery, you need to let it completely drain the battery before you charge it. This means keeping the phone on until it literally runs out of power and shuts off. This means the liquid level is as low as it can get, and you should get a full charge for a VERY long time. I can keep my phone on for 3 days without it shutting off, and I got it within two weeks after it came out.

 

None the less, this phone is horrible now, and it freezes a lot. Don't get it
