The worst smartphones of all time
Besides the famous smartphones, the technology world still has smartphones. 'bombshells' that become a nightmare for users, both in terms of interface and quality.
Galaxy Note 7
Galaxy Note 7 in 2016 is expected to compete directly with the iPhone. However, many users have reported that their phones caught fire during use, causing Samsung to recall all Galaxy Note 7 phones, causing huge damage. The incident also reduced Samsung's reputation somewhat and caused the Galaxy Note 7 to forever be considered the most forgettable smartphone.
Amazon Fire Phone
Amazon's first foray into the mobile phone market with the Fire Phone was unsuccessful and provided a valuable lesson in conducting experiments with an unfamiliar market.
Fire Phone appeared in 2014 for $199 and was developed by Amazon. However, this device was not attractive to consumers because its Fire OS operating system did not integrate with Google services, forcing users to use the Amazon Appstore with a small number of applications and high fees. . Ultimately, the Fire Phone became a flop.
Blackberry Storm
Research In Motion's (RIM) Blackberry product line was very popular in the mid-2000s.
When the iPhone appeared on the market, RIM encountered many difficulties. It developed Blackberry Storm - its first touch screen phone to compete with Apple.
Because of its short development, when launched, the product encountered many problems such as software development being slower than the iPhone, the screen not working correctly, and the overall experience being substandard. This caused RIM to miss the opportunity to compete with the iPhone. After that, the company gradually declined and Blackberry phones disappeared from the market.
Samsung Galaxy Fold
The Galaxy Fold folding screen phone was once a major breakthrough for Samsung. But this phone has many problems due to the use of plastic. The most prominent problem of the Galaxy Fold is that the screen cracked at the fold after just 1 day of use because the user opened the device too forcefully. In addition, the screen also has some other problems such as yellowing due to oxidation of the ultra-thin glass material, insensitive touch, flickering and application crashes.
Low durability, many screen problems, and a price higher than 2,000 USD make Galaxy Fold encounter many difficulties in the market.
iPhone 6
Many iPhone 6 users have reported the device bending when stored in the user's pocket or when subjected to moderate pressure. Even though it won't break, the iPhone 6 can permanently bend in the frame around the location of the volume buttons with just the right amount of tension.
The problem of warping the iPhone 6's side also causes touch screen paralysis at those locations.
