10 peculiar, weird, and plain ugly cell phones

Over the years, we've had the pleasure to check out a great deal of well-designed, feature-rich phones: the Samsung Galaxy S III, the iPhone 4S, the Motorola DROID RAZR, to name a few. However, every once in a while, some company decides to make a phone that is different, either in terms of looks or functionality, or both. Most of these, how should we call them, experiments, do not end up well, as you are about to see.

We have selected 10 weird, unattractive cell phones, almost all of which were actually on the market. Yes, people did buy them, despite their unorthodox appearance. Just flick through the slideshow below and check them out. As usual, leave us a line in the comments should you think we've missed a handset that could have been on the list.
