Review: Apple iPhone 3G

The caption "The iPhone you've been waiting for" on Apple's website says it all. The fact is, despite its revolutionary interface and outstanding ease of use, the original iPhone lacked some pretty crucial features, tied you into an 18-month contract and cost £269.

iPhone 3G

I t's been a long time coming. Sure, we've had the first-gen iPhone in India in some form or the other ever since it launched in the US, but hey, "official" is always better than "nothing official".

  • adds more features
  • an even more impressive sonic performance
  • and has a smaller price-tag
Cons:

  • some will be disappointed that the camera hasn

Apple iPhone 3G

The old iPhone is new again. Priced at an affordable $99 and updated with Apple's latest iPhone 3.0 software, the iPhone 3G makes a great entry level handheld computer. Of course, it's also a phone, but the 3G's voice capabilities are the least of what this platform (with its now-50,000 apps) can...
Pros:
  • 3G
  • True GPS
  • App Store adds hundreds of third-party programs
  • Voice quality is much improved from the original iPhone
  • No more recessed headphone jack.
Cons:
  • An unknown number of buggy units have been released
  • Still missing video recording, voice dialing, stereo Bluetooth support, picture messaging, and document editing.

  • HSDPA bandwidth
  • Exchange and MobileMe support
Cons:
  • Poor GPS implementation
  • no physical keyboard
  • poor battery life
