I know I know. The Nuu was probably from the worst phones in our galaxy…

NOTHING is worse than KaiOS. Even Nuu. Even eTalk. Even Orbic. Even HotPepper (which I’m sure nobody here has ever heard of; another awful phone)
Just made this post a wiki for the fun of it. Add in whatever worst Android models you think belong here.

List so far:
Nuu
Etalk
Orbic
HotPepper
Vortex Flip V3

But it’s pretty bad by the Android standard

Agreed. But bananahackers like it for some reason…

Liked. When it was more open and customizable and you were able to sideload apps. Not anymore.

Makes sense. But I’m sure kios themselves can get into the phone, and I’m wondering how.

They have the system signature. They can load whatever they want through recovery

Cat is also high up there, Consumer Cellular, stock TCL before root (not sure why anyone would want to do that)

Tied for last with the Kai OS Alcatel (dont know exactly which model) which cant even handle scrolling down a contact list with more than 10 contacts…

Can someone make a list of the worst, unkosherable flip phones out there?

Thanks.

Whoever does a good and clean job gets a “lashon hora” badge :name_badge:

when you say kosher do you include what tag could do?

I would because I’m down for a badge, but not with that title. I’m very into Chofetz Chaim. Been doing it daily for the last 2 years.

Maybe you could use the lashon badge for a list of the worst filters :zipper_mouth_face:

Ok, I’ll call it that

I’ll go for something else. I’m down for a badge, but I want one that stands out. I might still make a nice list if I’m bored and then ask for a promotion. We’ll see. :man_shrugging:

I’d rather contribute stuff that’s worthy of being promoted for instead of doing one little thing and then asking for it.
