Unlike seemingly the vast majority of people, I've rarely used mobiles. But for the past few days I've had to rely upon one to communicate with people, and I find them extremely frustrating to use.
For one thing, why won't it reliably ring out when someone calls me? I know I get a call as my PC is linked to my phone and a message pops up on the screen saying I missed a call! Pressing this button on the mobile seemed to solve the problem, at least temporarily. But now it's doing it again.
And sometimes when I ring people it says I'm not allowed to ring them, or something. Only for it to work the next time I try calling them.
And them sometimes people cut out in the middle of the call, only for them to re-appear and be seemingly unaware that I couldn't hear them.
Oh yes, and unlike on a landline (which I normally use all the time), I keep speaking over people on mobiles. Must be because peoples' voices are slightly delayed.
Another thing, unless I terminate the bluetooth connection to my PC, peoples' voices come out of the speakers. Am I still supposed to speak into the microphone on my mobile, or the microphone I use with my PC? I don't know.
I imagine it's simply a question of getting used to them, but for the moment I find them frustrating.
