ionutzm05, 06 Jul 2010Main disadvantages - Hardware design is prone to reception issues - I agree - MicroSIM card ... more"- No file transfer over Bluetooth or USB Mass Storage mode - iPhone don't need this"

    Don't matter what the specs are if the phone has faults that scream at you, is of maybe poor build quality in some areas etc you may as well not bother with it! This phone was to make apple money, maybe they got greedy and took too many shortcuts.

        Your still gonna love it and hate it with royalty in your hands.

        Iphone 4 may not be the king of kings of smartphones but it has and always will be the "IT" phone of the each and every year.

                    Still no "Call recording" feature :( . This feature is very useful, if you are taking a note of an address, contact, or a phone number, while in a call. This feature is there by default in most of the sonyericsson and motorola phones

                        poor loud speaker??

                        really, then mine is the exception, my iPhone 4's loud speaker is fantastic, way better than my old N900 or HTC Desire, its loud and clear and great for movies and music..

                        I do love reading these Hate iPhone comments, they are obviously from people who cant afford an iPhone, or hold more importance over Bluetoothing the latest Crazy Frog ringtone than having a decent phone.

                          Apple learn something from Toyota.

                          Toyota is recalling more than 91000 Lexus in Japan because of engine defeat.

                          Apple stop blaming customers and don't try to teach us to hold our phone in the-right-way.


                          To iSteve,
                          Dear CEO your arrogant behaviour makes us sick. Stop trying fooling us. Stop renaming an existing feature.

                          We keep in touch with technology and sometimes know even better than you. Correct your attitude please and don't treat us like a folks of sheeeps.

                          Ex-iFan,
                          Current Wave-lover.

                            so the gsmarena blog proves in its tests that the iphone 4 proximity sensor is indeed very faulty....what else is about to be found wrong with this expensive con?! More work for apple to try and cover its flaws

                                  Main disadvantages
                                  - Hardware design is prone to reception issues - I agree
                                  - MicroSIM card support only - I agree
                                  - No Flash support in the web browser - In my opinion flash would be a disadvantage if it would be installed on an iPhone because flash on Safari is always crashing.
                                  - No true multitasking for all applications - Yes, this is a really big disadvantages, the multitasking for iPhone 4 is really annoying
                                  - FaceTime video calls work only over Wi-Fi - I agree
                                  - No file transfer over Bluetooth or USB Mass Storage mode - iPhone don't need this
                                  - No hardware shutter key for the camera - Come on...
                                  - No FM radio - I agree
                                  - No stereo speakers - I agree
                                  - No microSD card slot - A
                                  * No smart dialing
                                  * Too dependent on iTunes for loading multimedia content
                                  * Poor loudspeaker performance

Lol. Contact Apple or make a genius bar appointment. No one here can help you. My iphone4 lasts me over a day on heavy use. Much better than my 3gs.

Even prior to ios4, you can listen to your iphone's native music player while doing something else, unless you're listening to Pandora.
