Why Cingular/ATT 8525 Sucks

with 6 comments

If you are considering the option of buying a 8525 cellphone, please stop, take a deep breath and check your self in the nut house. I am sure you’ll find me there!

This has got to be one of my worst decisions ever, and believe me I have made some bad mistakes over the years.

Top 10 reasons why the 8525 sucks bad:

  1. Some times you need to press the Answer button several times to do what a phone is designed to do, which is take calls. Sometimes it does not work at all and the call goes to voice mail… fun!
  2. Battery DRAINS out so fast you wont be able to say hello after you checked your email
  3. Phone does not detect the charger, and needs to be reset in order to start charging
  4. When running Windows Mobile 5 it hangs so many times a day that I lost count
  5. Looses bluetooth connection to headsets and car handsfree
  6. Soooooo slooooowwwww when you open the keyboard and the screen rotates
  7. Bulky as hell, might as well buy a brick
  8. Phone dialing is hard, screen keys are too small
  9. With the standard software the phone connects to the internet automatically, so watch out if you are roaming
  10. ActiveSync goes into a loop some times and syncs the same stuff over and over
