CNET Asia Review
8
out of 10View score
The bad: Variable call quality and lacks some basic features found in many cell phones, including stereo Bluetooth support and 3G compatibility; integrated memory is stingy for an iPod, and you have to sync the iPhone to manage music content.
The bottom line: Despite some important missing features, a slow data network, and call quality that doesn't always deliver, the Apple iPhone sets a new benchmark for an integrated cell phone and MP3 player.

Absolutely stunning
Apr 26, 2008Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: Maps, stocks, flawless interface
Cons: No MMS, fingerprint magnet, no 3G(not necessary a bad thing)
Opinion:
Had this phone for a month now, and what can i say, absolutely great. Used to own a LG Viewty and a N95 before and although both these phones are superior in terms of specs like 3G, camera etc. It is not even close to what the iphone is. Iphone just thrash out all the stuff that is seldom used on regular phones like MMS which maybe in the last year i have only sent less than 3 times and 3G which is great for downloading. But these are things you seldom use or expensive to use. Instead there is a dedicated email which supports all like Gmail yahoo and any pop3, MAPs that will route you from A to B. Stocks which lets you monitor. Alas a iPod included. It just works.

Pros: mutli-touch interface
Cons: evrything else is lacking
Opinion:
Most touch phones from other maunfacturers have already caught up with the iPhone in terms of style and functionality. This phone is only critically acclaim when it first launched, and that currently there is very little competition in the US market against it. If you see reviews where they say this is the top notch phone and all that... you'll know they have not seen or use LG Viewty and its sisters, and the range of Samsung touch phones.
This iPhone really needs some additional hardware before being introduce into the Asian market. Example: 3.6G, micro-SD slot, stereo bluetooth, etc.
No point getting an Iphone !!!!

Pros: Nice design, touchscreen, nice 3D icons
Cons: Camera lags like hell, No 3G, Need to type sms carefully later press wrong letter
Opinion:
Hey guys,whats up with the iphone crazy?People buy Iphone if you like only the design and not about the capabilities of it. I compare the Iphone to N95 8gb (which is abit more expensive but worth it) and prefer N95 8gb is much better the the Iphone. So people, if u like a stylish phone buy an Iphone, but if you want a good phone buy N95 8gb.
