CNET Asia Review

By Marguerite Reardon
Jul 11, 2008

Excellent

8.3

out of 10

The good: Offers critical new features including support for high-speed 3G networks, third-party applications, and expanded email; improved call quality is improved; continues to deliver an excellent music and video experience.

The bad: Continues to lack some basic features that are available on even the simplest cell phone; also, we prefer the original iPhone's design.

The bottom line: The iPhone 3G delivers on its promises by adding critical features and sharper performance. The iTunes Apps Store is pretty amazing, and the 3G support is more than welcome. We still have a few gripes, but the iPhone 3G is a big improvement over the original model.

Pros: Good apps available
Cons: Poor battery life, bad app sync

Touch screen is superior but apps do not work smoothly & the battery life is worse than china brand phone... Seriously, no application control as it does not work smoothly (certain apps)
