Apple iPhone 3G - user opinions and reviews

To those that just got the iPhone 3G.
Do you guys care that the back is made of plastic this time, & not metal?
My AT&T contract is up in a couple months, & I was gonna get the iphone 3G, but I am disappointed that Apple made the back out of plastic.
What the hell for??.....Apple could've easily made the back black or white, & still made it from metal.
It always seems that when mobile companies add upgraded specs to a phone, or newer model, the build always has to suffer.
Nokia for example could easily make an N95 spec phone with the same build quality of an 8600 Luna or 8800, but always use plastic.
Motorola is the ONLY company that knows how to properly construct a solid phone. The use steel, or some other type of metal, & hardened glass on their high end phones.
I am sick & tired of seeing phones that cost over $500.00 made out of plastic!!!

Since the iPhone came, we have haters and lovers and people who do not have an idea but buy it because other say it is max. I bought the F480 few days ago, after negotiating with myself about the iPhone or the Samsung. I need to say, the second iPhone generation looks not that bad but I refuse to buy it because of the marketing.Today I am writing this from Tokyo where the iPhone is launched right now. Long lines are waiting for the shops many many hours, outside it is 35 degrees and the sun shine as hell, come on , this is what marketing do with people, make them so crazy they think they need the toy, and not even tomorrow, but right now. 35 degrees and hours waiting in the sun, that can never goes well. Without all these hype, I think I should buy an iPhone too, but now...thanks. By the way the F480 is not bad too, read the test results first, maybe you may decide the marketing will not catch your money

Allan, 13 Jul 2008Sounds to me like you wouldn't have bought it if it was on contact with all the data fees!!!Actually, I've been getting exclusive perks from Rogers for over 13 years now. So it was just a matter of time that they introduced the Iphone and offered it to me. I also DO have a data package currently...but paying less than half of any data plan out there.

se23, 13 Jul 2008all I hear is only 2mp cam, no mms, no blutooth sharing!!!! Well I've prob sent 5 mms in my l... morePage 73. You said you thought iphone 2 would shut up all the haters,boy was i wrong. Also all the hype and for what.
So as i see it you also think apple should have made more advances in iphone 2 or iphone 3g in otherwords to shut up all the haters.

You know what...
Im sick of hearing people go back and forth about the Iphones (both models). If you simply do not like Apple or the phone itself, good for you and save your breath (or keystrokes for that matter). Apple is doing their part just like any other cell phone company when it comes to Hype, Distribution, Marketing, etc... and WE, the customers are reacting to their efforts. So, of course they are a definite success when it comes to profits and happy customers. But of course, the Iphone and/or 3G isnt perfect, but come on...which phone actually is? This device comes with everything you basically NEED. Phone, Camera (standard), SMS, MP3 player (8GB or 16 GB), Calender, Applications, PC-Sync, I can go on and on. I just laugh when I hear people complaing about the camera or the speakerphone quality. But hey, not all phones are perfect. If you're crying about a better camera, buy a GOOD CAMERA!
Then there are the unionized haters of the Iphone...everyone has their own opinion, and this is mine. The Apple Iphone (3G) simply has an APPEAL to it, that we love so much. Lets say for instance, Ferrari or Benz? Same dual between the Iphone and the N-series phones. Both are great at their own things, but at the end of the day each customer decides on their needs and wants (or desires lol).
Again, the Iphone has that certain 'appeal' to it thats got everyone going crazy. I cant lie, I've ordered it yesterday on the release date and its coming in a few days time. (By the way, im probably the only person in Toronto, OR Canada to be able to get the Iphone from Rogers: OFF CONTRACT, NO DATA PLAN, and for only $200 :) Don't ask how, because thats just foolish, but I do take pride in it, as I am just a regular customer with perks).
It serves my basic needs:
1)Phone
2)MP3/Video Player (8GB's worth!)
3)Wi-Fi
4)I just look bad ass.
Enough Said. To those who are thinking of getting this phone, do some research, look at it, go spend some time with it at the store. And if it suits your needs, BUY IT. If you find that you dont, find yourself another phone, and stop hating on the rest of us who actually find this phone to be appealing and proper to our NEEDS.
Good Day :)

That means if you can fit it in your pocket the speakers will get covered and you will hear nothing when it rings.
You see i put my finger over the speakers while the music was playing. Complete silence!
Try it people, put the iphone in your pocket and have someone call you!

If you are driving with your car radio on, forget about hearing your iphone ring.
I listened to how loud the music player is.
At full volume the iphone is the n95 at about 20% maybe 30% if you are lucky!
