1. Simply awful

This phone, inside and out, is absolutely littered with annoyances bad engineering decisions.

There are several menus that are not navigable by using numbers and must be scrolled through.

It is infuriatingly slow. At the end of a long string of keypresses to accomplish a simple task, one missed button can negate all your work. Or, the phone can decide to operate so slowly that it doesn't properly register all the buttons you pressed. Or, the keypad will ignore you.

The phone sometimes decides to delete the rest of your message if you go back to correct a mistake.

In some cases (usually with errors, usually caused by the phone sucking so bad), the phone will make LOUD beeping sounds, even if it is set to "silence all".

If you receive a new text message, and read it, the phone will usually alert you to the message again after you exit it.

There is a red light on the phone that blinks for no discernable reason.

The front panel spends 50% of the time showing useless information, instead of the time and date.

The directional buttons are quite difficult to press, often leading to mistakes.

I could go on for a while. I'm sure I will remember other things later about this phone that pissed me off. Suffice it to say that I took the battery out and smashed it with a hammer. Even before I had a new phone to replace it with.

Pros

Cheap.

Cons

Slow, user-unfriendly, poorly designed, maddening.
