AnonD-282292, 10 Jul 2014SERIOUSLY guys? What is going on with these comments? GSM... moreSeems like you got lucky because being frugal and not worried about impressing someone with the brand of your phone may not have created a headache for you, but it did for me and it seems like many other owners of the fierce. It's junk that T-Mobile should be ashamed to sell in the US in 2014.

Worst smartphone ever!!!NOT worth the cheap price. I paid $150 for this piece of crap from Walmart knowing that it won't be the greatest phone but NEVER expected it to be this shabby. The IPhone 4 or LG flip phone is more worth your money since at least you get what you paid for. Please NEVER get your fingers onto this phone. You will regret it forever!!!

This phone has made me really fierce indeed! I have so many complaints about this garbage. The camera is shabby, it can only access 4G and 2G BUT NEVER 3G, the internal storage is too small, touch screen glitches, phone freezes so much, when I click on my facebook app it leads me to my music,etc. I want my money back I really do.

This phone is complete garbage. My carrier is Family Mobile and the service only works well in major cities. The network often toggles to 2G or no signal at all. The camera, lack of internal storage, and terrible graphics ruin the phone's reputation. This company should be ashamed of the lack of effort they put into making this stupid piece of shit. But they did get one thing right: I am fierce after one touch on this stupid phone. Please go buy yourself a Samsung galaxy iphone or even an lg smartphone but STAY AWAY FROM ALCATEL!!!

I have had this phone for 3 months, and just got a replacement. My original phone ran out of room for photos relatively quickly, but nothing that a memory card cannot fix. The camera sucks but I expected that from a cheaper phone. It isn't that much slower than a higher end phone, and the battery on mine is pretty good, so I was pleasantly surprised. BUT that is where the good things END.
The things wrong with it that aren't actually broken, that are just crappy in general? It has the worst keyboard known to man. I have tiny fingers and it types in the wrong letters. It finishes my words, adds words, sometimes adds a few words, based off of my typing one letter. Not like those funny autocorrect mistakes- like every other letter I type, it finishes the word for me with something really random. My last phone liked inserting the name "Brett" into every sentence. I don't even know a Brett. The keyboard has a random button that if you hit it, it highlights the last word you typed and then if you hit another button, it replaces the word. Of course it is in the spot where most phones have the button to switch from letters to numbers, so you hit that button ALL THE TIME and erase everything. (I just figured out how to replace that keyboard with a different, and slightly less crappy keyboard. But other than the rogue replacement button, everything else still sucks.) It drops calls like none other. My mom has the same phone and her battery drains in like 2 hours. She has practically nothing on her phone either.
The things that actually were BROKEN after only 3 months: the touch pad didn't work properly. The phone would freeze and I could not turn it off or restart it for long periods of time. Sometimes it wouldn't let me make a call to a local number because "long distance calling is disabled" when it totally isn't... It dropped calls after 30 seconds, over and over.
Now I just got it replaced three days ago, and the new phone is inserting entire phrases into my texts. The touch screen still doesn't work. It will not work at all and everything will freeze up, then it will click and open random internet pages.
SO FED UP WITH THIS PHONE. I seriously got it to save money and expected it to not be very fast or have a great camera, but I expected it to work properly.

I've had my one touch almost 6 months on metro PCs and haven't had many problems so far with the exception of being a little slow at times. Good phone at a great price.

I had mine for a week and it doesn't work the way the manual says it does, smart phone? I say NOT. I couldn't even put and pictures to my contact list, it kept saying that I didn't have any contacts, I am taking this piece of crap back, I am so disappointed.

SERIOUSLY guys? What is going on with these comments? GSMA needs to police them better. I smell mechanical turks all over these 'opinions'... That said,
The value on offer with this phone is crazy. You got a great looking screen, decent gaming, 4g, micro SD, and an FM Radio for crying out loud. Nothing is left out. Also, I've used it for 3 months and haven't had one hitch that wasn't something I did wrong. It didn't fail, corrupt or refuse to turn on once. AND I found it for $99. What the heck else do you want?
The Fierce isn't perfect. Two things stand out to me. 1. Janky touch recognition. For some reason the OTF wants a lighter hand than I am used to. Strange. And 2. I've had a little trouble getting the bluetooth to a loudness where it's comfortable for me to make calls with. Sorta quiet. Could be my headset anyway.
Basically it's a $600 phone from 2 years ago for one sixth the price. Does your neurotic mind require that your phone-wang is the longest? Than this is not the one for you. Are you a reasonable human being that hates wasting money? Than yes, the One Touch Fierce is an amazing value.

Save your money buy LG L90! You won't be sorry the alcatel fierce is a rip off even at the seemingly cheap price it's not worth it.. You'll be buying a stock android with glitches this phone was problems day one and that's a shame I thought I had a defective phone till I heard all the horror stories! And I thought my LG F3 was bad! It was top of the line compared to this phone I regret complaining about it at the time...
