So I gots nothing to do on a Monday night, so I shall make my second review right now. WARNING: All you techies out there, I’m not super tech savy, but I am going to do a review on my current phone right now: the HTC Fuze.
The first thing I want to say is, for all you people who are about to get a new phone, always do extra research on the phone you want. I didn’t and that was a big problem. This phone was not what I wanted it to be AT ALL. The main beef I have with this phone is that it does not lock. I tried locking it various ways, no dice. I need the phone to LOCK because I am a student and sometimes when I go to places, it would be nice to put the phone in my pocket and not have it do something weird. It even dials people’s numbers when I put it in my bag! If there is anyone out there who knows a solution to locking my HTC Fuze, please let me know now. I would appreciate it so much. The only solution I have right now is to press the power button on the top of the phone, but when I put the phone in my pocket and sit down, I somehow click on the power button and the phone begins doing all crazy things. I have called my best friend a couple times, not knowing it. Boy, she has heard weird things.
Another beef I have with this phone is that when I call someone and I put the phone next to my ear, my cheek can make the phone mute. Since the phone is a touchscreen, the mute button is conveniently where my cheek rests when I talk on the phone. BAD FOR TALKING ON THE PHONE, ESP WHEN ITS SOMETHING IMPORTANT. People have accused me of playing a joke on them, or just plain being rude. I don’t mean to, its the phone.
The phone is also very heavy, I don’t like how heavy it is. It’s like probably a pound to two pounds? Maybe I’m exaggerating, but it’s thick and heavy.
Don’t get me wrong, the picture quality on the phone is really nice. But I wish I would of thought twice. I have had the phone for a year already and the contract wont end for another year. So I’m stuck with this phone.
All other HTC Fuze users, whats your take on your phone?
That’s why you buy a hip holster/case intended for your phone or put it in a purse. That’ll solve a bunch of problems with the accidental butt-dialing and the like. There is no excuse for the mute button dealio, though. Most likely just a design flaw. My words of wisdom: suck it up and wait out your year.
