JohanS, 18 Jul 2008Quite worthless phone that's going for sale ASAP.
I am NOT happy with the battery life.
I ... moreits funny how you two people can take the same thing (a phone in this case) and have vastly different opinions.
Having used practically every type of smartphone out there I am quite pleased with the new iPhone I had a Blackberry Curve and two others before that, Nokia Smartphones and a couple of Treos and have been most impressed with the iPhone, though I do still miss my Blackberry Curve a little.
Its also interesting that you complain about battery life it leads the industry, I know this from recent reports comparing other 3G phones and personal experience. As for some of the other things you dont like like using iTunes and so forth it seems you need to do a little more homework before you buy your next smartphone since most any and everything could have been known about the phone long before the purchase.

Suz, 18 Jul 2008Is it true that if you have cold fingers or acrylic nail the touch screen won't work well?????Suz:
this iPhone features a touch screen Heat sensor.
it is not like the HTCs with a pen.
touch in its screen with any nail, pen or whatever that isn't Human Heat, will... ahem... you know, letting marks on the screen, so I recommend to not to use stuff like that

I am NOT happy with the battery life.
I ... moreJohanS:
you're not happy with anything of the iPhone, are you?
I've got answers to all of your unhappynesses:
-The battery life holds until, in standby mode, over 190 hours (tested by me), and using day-by-day, you have to recharge it night after night
-camera: the iphone is mega-thin for an awesome selling product, and you're interested with the camera...
-do you mean that, you use only apple stuff?
-less quality??? I think you need new glasses. this iphone is considered the best quality in 320x480 software (not the best but it's better than HTC's and Microsofts definition and quality)
-you want MMS on it? just go to www.iphoneapps.org, and you'll see a lot of goods for the iphone.
-yellowish? what do you mean?
-the price? you're kidding me! the price of the iPhone 3G is half the price of iPhone 2G
and I'm adding one:
-if you're not happy with the price, that means you didn't buy this product for -300€/$(16 GB)
-200€/$(8 GB)
and these prices are exceptional for this awesome brand new device
...are these expressions fair enough for you?

I think that is the point why Appple 3G is awesome not because of bluetooth, not because of external memory, not because of camera but most importantly this device is designed for internet availability on yuor pocket with very wide and nice screen, fast speed of access, ease of use and for music and internet based entertainment.. plus of course the music player

Not very impressed. Its best feature is its screen, really nice for looking at pictures and browsing internet. Downside is its huge, a brick in your pocket. Also the camera is 2 mp which is pathetic for this day and age. Video recording is a joke too. At least it FINALLY has 3G bout time it got up to speed on that.

I ... moreJohan - if you are not happy, you better change the phone with the same contract...by buying a different phone..ATT still has better phones but not so hyped. I am using LG Vu which is so far good except for features like GPS, exchange server. The interface is excellent than ifone...the only thing is you will be paying additional price..for the fone

Quite worthless phone that's going for sale ASAP.
I am NOT happy with the battery life.
I am NOT happy with the camera.
I am NOT happy with how tangled in I feel by using all the proprietary stuff Apple stands for.
I am NOT happy with the less than average build quality.
I am NOT happy with it not having even the simplest MMS-program by default.
I am NOT happy with the screen-quality (Yellowish).
I am NOT happy with the price for this 3 year behind product.
In short... I regret every day except the first one I spent with it. I also regret looking/acting like a fool in the line trying to get one...
My appologies to the other phone-producers that I dissed during my wait for this worthless piece of crap. I'm now looking for alternatives (LG? Samsung? HTC) from a real producer.

Man, I love my new toy! works like a dream, fits in any pocket and makes everyone jealous (although most, as with this blog, won't admit it and rather slate the product.)
If you own one and don't like it, please tell us why. If you don't own one, what the hell are you doing commenting on it?

To those that do not like this phone, you do not understand technology. To those that say any other user interface is better, you are extremely uneducated... And to those that say WINDOWS MOBILE IS GOOD... you shouldn't own a phone as you don't own a brain

Yazmin, 18 Jul 2008Well, it is a very nice phone for buisness people who travel alot and need access to their ema... morebluetooth is not only used by 12 year olds!

Well, it is a very nice phone for buisness people who travel alot and need access to their emails. In my opinion it is a wonderful phone, because of its internet capabilities and downloadable apps. I have had it for a week and have no problens with it so far. I wish people would STOP complaining about the camera because HONESTLY, Ever heard of a Digital camera!!! And as for the Bluetooth file transfering, First, it is a thing that 12 year olds use at school to transfer pointless ringtones and stuff, secondly, it will almost certainly come out as an app in the app-store sometime. Same for MMS! And why OH WHY do you need MMS when you have HTML RICH emails?? Anyway.... All up a great phone from Apple... Well done 8.5 stars! =D
