Gotta say, am pretty impressed by my new iPhone 3G which comes bundled with many useful applications. Sound quality is excellent with some awesome display. But, the only thing that disappointed me was, there's no copy and paste option!
No doubt about it, the browser makes all the difference in the world. Great design and functionality but hands down for me the availability of a real browser makes this phone indispensable.
I had high of expectations from the new revamped iPhone, but even this thing disappointed me. I bought this phone recently and found it lacks some basic phone features like; cannot forward messages to many recipients and Bluetooth works only through iTunes package. Even the picture quality was not good when used at night. Overall, I think this product is overhyped.
After hearing all the hype about the iPhone my sister bought one and can you imagine her surprise and dismay when she realised there is no copy paste option, unable to share files via Bluetooth, no expandable memory, the touch keyboard is so tedious sometimes to use. She is really unhappy with her phone!!!!
I have always been an Apple fan and was really looking forward to upgrading and exchanging my Apple iPhone to the new iPhone 3G 16GB. Having done that, I am rather pleased with myself as the phone gives me all that I had anticipated. The iPhone offers support for high-speed 3G networks, third-party applications like Microsoft Exchange, and expanded e-mail. Its call quality is quite good and gives an excellent music and video experience. With fast 3G wireless technology, GPS mapping, the widescreen is phenomenal, the browsing experience is exceptional. If someone asks me if I should buy the phone I would see do that with closed eyes.
