sms, 13 Oct 2008In order to consider it is a good phone:
- A minimum 5 mp camera with flash is a must.
- No ... moreThat's a good list of ideas.
Here's mine to Apple:
1. 5mp camera with dual LED flash, or xenon flash. 8mp can be a warm welcome, although not necessary.
2. bluetooth file transfer
3. MMS
4. less than 15mm and have at most 118grams.
5. Have some sort of application to edit office documents
6. Upgrade to a slightly better speaker.
7. Make the back slightly more resistant to scratches.
8. Have 3G video call.
9. Have a battery life similar to Omnia.
10. Implement the microSD card slot.
11. Removable battery (using micro screws)
12. Able to switch between tasks using task manager
13. Have infrared (Not necessary.)
14. Battery charges fast. (Definitely stands out of the mobile crowd, if Apple were to put this point into place)

but apple made very good job in making this crap very popular and that is why many people say is better than many other phones(like n96) and that is not true... just see and compare the features of this phone with htc products or a nokia or a sony...
this phone is crappy, i thought apple was making a very good improve from the first iphone but it wasn;t like i thought...
just one time more... crappy phone... better have anything else... sorry for the people who like it very much... i respect you preferences....but is crappy phone... no more words... see ya!!!!

If Apple has the technology to implement MMS, why not? It's an added advantage.

mike, 13 Oct 2008do u know that n96 is complicated to used than iphone, there a comment in nokia that its slow ... moreJust because Apple is an American brand, doesn't mean European brands are junk. Define cheap please. I think there's no cheap mobile brands in GSMArena. If u said that the brands they review on are cheap, then u r trying to say GSMArena peeps are wasting their precious time doing detail reports on phones.

Adobe announced iPhone support last week, it's coming so you can view all the ads in all their glory.
Best web browser Safari on iPhone, nothing else comes anywhere near it.
Why do MMS when you can email or upload photo's directly to a number of sites e.g. Facebook, Myspace, Photobucket, etc.
Yes, the iPhone does sync with Outlook and with Exchange.

bet after all of your complaints and shameful success of the iphone itself apple is working on a new upgraded version of the current versions. fixes will cover most of the flaws and high-end functionalities from the camera upgrade to the definition of pc-based internet, so stop whinig if u dont like it, besides apple company itself not a mobile manufacturer company, its a COMPUTER. iphone its just an upgraded prototype of ipod and itouch. and they made an try out of making a cell phone as well. so if u dont like it then go fuck urselves! its getting boring hearing all of weeps and shits. buy another brand,like the samsung and motorolla slim dildo-like devices and shove em up ur asses! or just quit being a complainer and start to give credits to all those engineers who are effortlessly trying to innovate the mobile industry usage as well as satisfying customers mobile-fantasies and shits. do u even know the first mobile with absolute no functionalities was near about $4039? read it on pc world. so be thankful cuz u saving one third of the price.

Samsung Omnia already killed iPhone, as the answer to the term "iPhone Killer". It cannot surpassed Omnia's versatileness (optical & functionality). Another one is Nokia N96's high-end like capability. In simpleness and teen-style, iPhone remains great. Its the godfather of auto-rotate accelerometer.

Though Apple iPhone 3G has flaws, it is still better than any motorola phones. Motorola is just not innovative enough. We have yet to see a major phone that could compete with iPhone 3G, Nokia N96, Sony Ericsson X1 and Samsung Omnia from motorola. Motorola remains stagnant. At least BlackBerry tried their best with Storm. That's a good start.

My bad.
It has only two colours, not one... which is still not good enough.
Bluetooth is only suited to stereo bluetooth, not for file transfer.. how silly it is!!

iPhone 3G has:-
1. No video calls
2. A lousy camera
3. No flash
4. No Multitasking (task manager)
5. No file manager
6. No forward or back controls (need to use earphones for that)
7. Not a simple file transfer with mini-usb. There's simply no usb port, have to use apple's
8. No place to hang your keys on. (Not necessary)
9. No pocket office software
10. Only one colour (unlike ipod nano)
11. Locked to certain carriers
12. Once u buy this phone, Apple is going to release an even better version in a years time, like they did after iPhone 1st gen. So just wait for 2009...or don't bother at all!
13. Battery could have been better. (Though iPhone 3G won N96 in this aspect, but not for Nokia Tube.)
14. No business card scanner
15. Lousy bluetooth function, could at least allow file transfer.
16. The back is easier to scratch than iPhone.
17. No memory card slot for expansion.
18. No removable battery
19. No flash support in Safari web browser

The price isn't right for its phone features that's the exact term for these phone. N96 has all what you need people who want to have almost all in one phone. The Iphone is just only being over price with it's phone features not that much what we need users.
