The Sprint Centro Is the Worst Phone Ever 21 June, 2008

No, really. I’ve always been a fan of PALM products, but I’ve just about had it with this flagship product. Palm is quickly going down, partially due to the iPhone, but mostly due to the fact that it’s still making inferior products. Forgive me for the rant, but I’m about to receive my third Palm Centro in less than a year, and I still need to take it in as soon as I get it.
My first Centro was SOLD to me brand new with a dead/broken pixel on the screen..
My second Centro lasted the bulk of this time. I had only been having small issues getting the down button to work, and I eventually didn’t even notice. After Bonnaroo, though, the up, down, and center keys finally kicked the bucket all together.
With a little luck, I was able to get a refurbished Centro for $37. Unfortunately, they would only send it to Toledo for me, so I’ve been using my mom’s (lovely) pink Centro for the past week. I’ll get it tomorrow when Aly comes to visit.
YET, as soon as I get this new phone, I’ll be taking it in to the local Sprint store. Why? Because it was sold to me with a blown speaker, which listening to will get really old, really fast.
Fuck you, Sprint. Fuck you, Palm. My next phone is an iPhone or a Nokia.
It’s all about the Palm Pre baby, I have hopes for it! My Palm Tero 755 is not bad
