I am tired using this
Phone owned for more than a year

This is such a small screen that I can't even read anything instead it is too pixelized too. I want a better iPhone such as the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus, but this is kind of a disaster, and camera is very limited, except for geo tagging.

I already pulled my SIM and put it in another phone (3 wks in)
Phone owned for less than a month

It does what it says, but I hate it personally. You cant customize it to do what you personally need it to do. Applications are few, but I only use a few any way, and apps are available. "Just type it" is great, but typing is difficult with the small cramped keypad. I'm not opposed to small phones, but this is way too small for me personally. Every day I used it, if found myself saying, "I hate this phone!", at least once. Also u need an adapter to use earbuds.. being that it's held on magnetically, I lost it within the first few days. Speaker isn't very loud either..
