The best touch screen

Nov 19, 2009

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Simple to use
Cons: No flash, can't change battery or carry extra, back should be stickier should be different like n95 8gb,
Opinion:
Made the switch from many many nokia's. Love the phone but still miss my nokia.

 

My best mobile so far.

Nov 11, 2009

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Can't text while driving! No moving parts - nothing to break.
Cons: Poor sound quality & volume.
Opinion:
Despite it's negative features I like to testify, that this is my best mobile yet.
I have the original and use it everyday for two years. I'm careful so it didn't break, like my son's. But most of all it's still clean and looks like new. I work in trades and my old phones got clogged with dirt. This one just wipe it and it's clean. Apps, like level and few others came in handy.
For the road I like to see attachable keyboard so one can type easy.
Those who complain about iPhone, just remember, the idea is original and that's why so many others make imitations or just copy the style. Apple is a conservative firm, so many features are not rushed in.

An instant classic and has set the bar high for future smartphones

Jun 13, 2009

Rating: 9 out of 10 (Spectacular)
Pros: great looks & screen, industry-setting touch screen, formiddable App Store
Cons: no copy & paste!, not 7.2mbps, not truly multitasking, slows down considerably when you add many apps
Opinion:
While many poo-poo the iPhone in a spec-for-spec comparison against other smartphones there's no denying that the iPhone changed the way the industry and consumers looked at smartphones and set the bar higher in our expectations of what mobile devices can do.

I do love my iPhone and for many things it's the only thing that will do (mobile surfing, twittering, listening to music and watching video on the go) but I do have my own personal gripes with the phone:
- no hard buttons for music control (so you can still navigate it while the thing's still in your pocket)
- no a true multitasker
- no bluetooth AD2P support
- slows down to glacial levels when you start adding apps

And the iPhone 3G S? Am not sure about that. It isn't the quantum leap that we've come to expect from Apple. Most of the features that are appealing to me you can get ... Read more

 

DEFINITELY NOT THE BEST...FAR FROM IT!

Nov 26, 2008

Rating: 5 out of 10 (Average)
Pros: nevermind (good looks,great interface & screen)
Cons: no 3G,poor camera,inadequate memory,expensive,no stereo bluetooth,difficult to use virtual keyboard,no video recording,no support for flash & java,no custom ringtones
Opinion:
Do yourself a favor...for the price go buy a proper mp3 player (including ipod/itouch) and get a decent cellphone! You'll thank me later... I'm not an Apple hater, fix all the cons and it could be the best.
