God damnit. Ok, it's 5am (Shit...)

Motorola make fucking shite phones. I made the mistake of taking mine out when it was raining (An old Razr V3). Apparently that's the worst thing you can do a phone. When I turn it on, it dials '4' constantly.

Well, good. I want an excuse to get a new phone. I will never buy a Motorola phone again. I'm not exactly experienced, I've owned 4 or 5 phones, but this one Motorola phone is the worst phone I've ever bought. Yes, it's quite pretty, and I'm sure it's perfectly fine if you don't mind charging it every day - the battery lasts about 3 days when I send about 20 texts a day with it. Phone calls are out of the question, there's no way I can have a conversation lasting more than 5 mins.

And the predictive text isn't. It can store about 8 or 16 custom words. That might seem reasonable, but consider that anyone who uses a phone at all will probably use about 20 words that aren't in the standard dictionary in a week.


EDIT: Naughty sweary words removed.

I believe, when you bought the phone, I told you that RAZRs are garbage, they have defective keypads, and the like.

I also believe you responded that you didn't care, since the phone was pretty.

Please at least videotape your smashing of the phone and post it to the Tube of You.

Sony Ericsson phones seem to be the best at the moment, but I have stuck with Nokia. My latest phone has been dropped, soaked with rain and sat on many times and it's fine.

Yeah, a couple of friends have Sony Ericssons and they seem pretty good. So i'll probably go for one of them.


Well, the phone "works" now, but my SIM seems arsed. Sigh.

Replacement sim cards are only about £15, cheaper than a new phone

True, but I want a new phone anyway - I'm sick to death with this one, and I wouldn't trust putting a new SIM in it if it cooked the last one.
