We spend so much time deliberating on which phones are the best that we often forget to analyse a matter of equal significance: the worst smartphones to plague our stores. These are the phones that consumers ought to stay well clear of; the phones that should never have been embellished upon the general public and that bring shame upon its owners.

HTC Desire C

Mobile phone models usually have pros and cons, positives and negatives. The HTC Desire C however, just doesn’t quite have any significant plus points. Not that there aren’t any good things to say about the Desire C – it has a MicroSD card slot and runs on Google’s solid Android operating system, Ice Cream Sandwich. It’s just that none of these positives are good enough to outweigh the negatives.
The phone has a weak processor, a small screen resolution and the call volume is quiet! Therefore everything you would want to do on your smartphone is made unsatisfactory with the HTC Desire C; a model consumers shouldn’t even touch if it came free, along with the cheapest of sim only deals.
BlackBerry Curve 9320

Oh how the mighty have fallen. Once reigning amongst the leading mobile phone manufacturers and being the brand everyone had in their pockets, BlackBerry’s have gone from hero to zero. With BBM Messenger being the company’s only weapon, their demise was always likely to happen once someone else introduced a rival cross platform instant messaging program, such as Whatsapp.
The Curve 9320 however, isn’t just a bad smartphone because it’s a BlackBerry; it’s a bad BlackBerry! A double negative!
It has a poor app selection, no touchscreen, a tiny low resolution screen and an undesirable back-plate.
Nokia 808 PureView

If the BlackBerry’s decline is a symbol of how the mighty have fallen, then Nokia’s current state represents hell freezing over. Nokia was once more than simply a leader; it was a pioneer in mobile branding and technology that went some way into making mobile phones the industry they are today.
These days however, they merely struggle to keep up with that industry, with the 808 PureView providing the best example of their woes. Revealed earlier this year in February, the 808 was supposed to be a statement of intent; a convincing claim to the throne by the former emperor.
Instead it infested the smartphone market with hefty models, holding low resolution displays and extremely sluggish web browsing. All of these damning attributes were more than enough to override the fact that the 808 actually has an excellent camera; which is a shame and a waste of a 41-megapixel snapper.
