I just finished comparing 3GS to it's predecessor (gsmarena specifications) and I don't see anything worth mentioning. More integrated gigs, yay, mms, getting a heart attack, 3.15 camera, noooo... It's only my opinion but to me this one looks like the old one, they just swapped two chips and a camera. Is the new OS version that good? It just looks flashy... Don't get me wrong, I don't hate iPhone, there was a time when I wanted one, but I'm a typical phone user, when I look at this phone I see the same phone that was introduced some time ago. Frankly, I think it's just the same old thing in a new tv ad.
i work for carphone warehouse and i think that the new iphone 3gs will not meet to standards and it will never meet or compete with the likes of the new nokia or sony ericsson phone that are coming out apple just played it safe its not good enuf it has let me down.
i was expecting much more than this and even though it know has tomtom it want make up for any thing els like the camera if you are going to compete you might as well put something worth while on it.
RL, 08 Jun 2009What about the messaging and file transfer downers? Can I forward texts and transfer files thr... moreapparently no, bluetooth is only for headset (call only).
But back in 2002, the very 1st sonyericsson T68 was capable to transfer files and use the headset at same time.
WoW, it does MMS and records video, let's do a backwards. the 1st sony ericsson with a camera T610 back in 2003 was capable right away to send a photo as mms. No video but right after that his next phone Z1010 was capable of video. and early 2005 the z800 was a 3G video call capable. And i'm talking only about Sony Ericsson, so let's not start with Nokia, Sharp or any other.
The only thing that they did 1st than the others was the multi touch, ok and a very well done and successful marketing.
Is really sick to see a apple fan, look at your-self in a mirror to try to notice it for your-self.
This is just SAD! Is Apple really serious with this: "Oh, our iPhone records video now... and it has a shiny compass!" The Saddest thing, thou is that all of the lame psycho fans of Apple will buy it just because it's new. APPLE is the "WS teleshop" and the "Topshop" of the technology world!
Again no radio, no flash, no secondary cam. at least let it come independantly without locked to a single SP.
Auvik, 08 Jun 2009I work in a mobile phone operator company. Gsmarena is like our homepage. All the time we chec... moreI agree
capacitive touchscreen? is it real?
im gonna get one later!
wow a new release of iphone...
i want to try that later..hehehe...
i hope so..
Do you no guys. Apple sales will drop. You know why? Not much different between Iphone 3G and 3GS. So, most users will buy the 3G for $99. Good way to market your phone. Also no one buy the Ipod touch 32G no more since they can buy the 3GS with 32GB.
Need to wait for Micro Soft Zume Phone.
Oh dear me... its as wet as the titanic! Come on apple!! You're core is becoming rotten!!
lots of funny comments i found here... btw, its mac
cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is it not strange that everyone always compare their phone to an iPhone. If you don't own an Apple product, please don't show your stupidity here, because you don't know what you are talking about. I am a proud owner of an iMac, iPod and iPhone 3G, and love every moment of it because i can appreciate the good things in life, and that is just what Apple do, they enriches peoples lives with very innovative products.
ok im thinking wat is the differance between the old 1 to this.. apart from the digital compass.... n wwwwwwwwwoooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwww 3mp
this mobile is the same at the other models, more of the same.
Anonymous, 08 Jun 2009what? no card slot again? stupid.........stupid LG and SAMSUNG rule. You are right. what? no card slot again? All other MFG offer the slot: Blackberry, HTC, Nokia, Samsung, LG,and Motorola. Answer is they want to price their phone differently. This is Sick. Apple Engineers give us Better camera 3M when Sony, Samsung and Nokia all offering 5M to 12M with Flash......No reason to switch to 3GS. In main time the lowering the price of my Iphone 3G.
I work in a mobile phone operator company. Gsmarena is like our homepage. All the time we check for new handsets and reviews. It really helps us to decide which handset we should buy. To be honest we blindly depend on the reviews. If it says its good then we buy it. If it says bad, we forget it. But one thing that bothers us that the voting. Ok you can vote on the design or features but how can you vote on performance as the handset is not yet released? Sometimes we really get confused. If gsmarena enables voting on performence after the handset is released that would be very helpful. I think all the gsmarena fans will agree.
again no radio :/
