My smartphone isn't so smart...

I held off for so long with regard to getting a smartphone. I just wasn't very interested. I'm at the computer all day. Why would I want a miniature computer with me for when I go out? I want to get as far away from that thing as possible. I had always used my cell phone for two reasons - 1) To make calls and 2) To receive calls. That was it. I really had no interest in anything else. Three months ago, I finally gave in to the crazy and got a smartphone. I still don't use it nearly as much or for as many reasons as most people I know do. I may Google something once in a while, play Words or Scramble With Friends and make/receive phone calls, but that's about it. Three months later, I have to say - I'm not all too impressed with this smartphone (smartphone, in general) and am not thinking it's the brightest crayon in the box.

In just the past week, it's froze on me and I've had to remove the battery and put it back in place in order to restart and get it working again. It'll go through slow phases on loading as well as phases where the internet won't work. The battery life is shorter than Danny DeVito. Reception isn't that great. It's nearly non-existent when outside. I've had more calls dropped on this smartphone in the three months I've owned it than I did with my ancient phone that I had for 3-4 years. Yeah, even though this device is known as a smartphone, I'm  starting to believe it's mentally handicapped.
