This phone's flaws make it immensely frustrating to use. The touchscreen will not register touches correctly depending on temperature, moisture level of your fingertip, and God knows what else. Often, when the screen is acting up, your touches will all be registered in the bottom right...

Fail phone is Fail. It looks so good online and in the store! You slide it open and close a couple times, it has a satisfying weight to it, and it even has a keyboard! It happens to be hundreds of dollars cheaper than the slew of other phones. But as always in the gdgt world, you get what you pay...

I bought this phone right around its release and had the pleasure of paying the early adopters tax with my patience. The first thing I noticed when I really started to use this phone is how bad the touchscreen was. Much of the time it takes more than one key press to get to where you want to go....

The Glyde was my first move into a "smart phone". I had expectations that it would deliver a smooth interface and with the slide out keyboard I would be able to text, surf, search, etc. I think I set the bar too high for this phone and the touch interface did not satisfy me. I know...

Samsung Glyde is a pretty cool concept. Except it's very poorly executed. The screen practically NEVER works. It's very frustrating especially in emergencies. Keyboard is too flush for my taste. Now for the screen: I pretty much never use my phone, cause it never works, or it...

With all the bad reviews I decided I had to put in my 2 cents because I don't think the phone is that bad. It's not an iPhone for sure and the touch screen does fail every once in a while. But otherwise it's a solid phone with a great camera with a good keyboard. Don't count...
