Doro - mobile phone to avoid

Doro produces mobile phones which are supposed to be for people who want a simple device. I have had one since August. It must be the worst mobile phone I have ever owned. The model I purchased was a Phoneasy in gloss red with a camera.

• The message facility is awful.
• Very poor predictive text with limited vocabulary.
• Cannot change language without closing and changing Settings, and it is difficult to find.
• It takes EIGHT key presses to delete each and every message.
• Calendar fixtures cannot be copied to another day or time.
• The online backup facility did not work.
• Battery life not good considering it is just a phone.
• Microphone aperture is in the corner exactly where it will be covered when holding the phone.
• Very poor build quality.
• Squidgy keys - have to be pressed on exactly the right spot.
• Red lacquer scratches easily and has started to wear through to the grey plastic underneath.
• The back detachable cover has started to split at the corners.

There is more but that is enough to be getting on with.

It was not a bargain price and I am already looking for something to replace it.
