Reviewers Didn't Like

  • No 4G, no Adobe Flash, relatively low res display
  • Short battery life, Weak reception, Useless speakerphone
  • The smartphone's compact size won't suit everyone. The smaller display makes it a bit hard on the eyes when viewing Web sites and video, and the camera's picture quality could be better
  • The camera is disappointing and the processor is on the sluggish side. Though it runs on Android 2.3, the Wildfire is incapable of making the most of the OS.Look and Feel
  • Underpowered processor, Virtual keyboard too small, Incall quality far from great
  • No front camera for video calls; weak flash
