Review: AT&T Quickfire

Is It Your Type? Body The Three S's Touch

Along with the QWERTY keyboard, the Quickfire has a capacitive touch screen for user input. It is not the most responsive screen I have ever tested. Truth be told, the Quickfire's screen only responded to about 60% of touches the first time. I had to re-press the screen multiple times to make menu selections and navigate from screen to screen. What makes matters worse is that there is no feedback at all. The Quickfire doesn't have haptics, and without them (on this phone, anyway), it makes it more difficult to use. Lastly, there is no way to calibrate or adjust the sensitivity of the screen
