I have the Brightside since the end of June and I hate it. Sometimes when I try to take a picture, it will tell me the memory is full. It isn't. I have less than 20 pictures on my phone and no extra ringtones, etc. I will then have to take the battery out for a few minutes in order to be able to take pictures.
Lately when I delete texts, as soon as I select delete, the phone will shutdown and restart.
Also I have a ringtone set for my sister, a different one set for my dd and then another set for everyone else. Most of the time it will use the correct ringtone but then it will go thru periods where it uses random ringtones even though I have a particular one set for my sister or my dd.
Of course the problems started happening after the 30 day return period. Samsung wants me to send it in but that would leave me without a phone for almost 2 weeks. The Verizon store can only help me if they can recreate the problem right then and there. Of course, the problems are random so they dont happen when I need them to happen.
These problems are things I can live with for now but 2014 won't come fast enough for me to get rid of this phone.
