4.0 out of 5 stars the iphone only fails majorly in one department, 3 Sep 2009
By 
A. Ashmore "Is mr roo" (newcastle, UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Apple iphone 3G Black 8GB (Electronics)
having owned an iPhone 3g 8GB for 6 months, I can honestly say that in terms of usability, I dont think anything can beat it. From what I have used personally.

The major problem with this handset is that that battery just isnt up to scratch. This caused me to sell the handset and move onto something else.

I found consistently that taking it off charge at 8am on a morning, the phone was at 20% by about half 4. I couldnt get away with the fact I had to take my charger to work with me.

So apple, I might come back to the iPhone in a few years when you have solved the problem.

four stars as I couldnt fault it apart form the battery.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect design, 3 Aug 2009
By 
Josh Wright (Gloucestershire.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Apple iphone 3G Black 8GB (Electronics)
I have had by iPhone for a while now and still love the feel of it. The plastic replacement for the previously metal back for the phone is much nicer to touch and fits nicely into the hand.

The camera, although specification-wise is not as good as the camera on some other phones it is still brilliant.

The battery power is surprisingly good compared to the amount of energy running all these tasks must take up.

Literally thousands of applications download; some more useful than others. Your iPhone becomes worth the rather expensive original cost you paid for it.

The internet is quicker to open up and load a page than if you had to use a computer and is ideal for simpler tasks.

Also the inbuilt music player which is basically an iPod touch makes playing music amazingly simple.

Typing using the "QWERTY" touch keyboard is a lot easier than it may initially appear. Although one suggestion I would have is the possibility of having an additional stylus allowing hand-writing recognition is you so desired.

An excellent buy and the money will be well worth it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Wouldn't recommend it to others., 30 Jan 2010
By 
Jakub Lichwa (Lawrence, KS USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Apple iphone 3G Black 8GB (Electronics)
I will start with positive aspects of the phone:

- I think the camera offers very good quality pictures compared to others phones

- dimensions and the general look of the phone is quite attracitve too

- very intuitive and easy to operate


There are few major cons however, due to which I would be unable to recommend this phone:

- I have to reset it every other day as the phone starts working extremely slowly even when typing a message - go to Youtube and type "iPhone freezing" or "slow iPhone" and you will see what I am talking about. This is not only a problem with my single phone, but rather a major issue with others too. I believe iPhone 3GS has already faster OS so the problem is supposedly solved, but I am not 100% so I cannot really comment on that (+ I don't like the fact that I would have to pay a premium to Apple for 3GS, because they fixed something that should be working in the first place).

- the battery life is unacceptable. The phone in medium use will barely last 24 hours - and I don't even play music on it! Sure, someone can say that I can charge the battery when I get back home in the evening, but sometimes people are out for 2 or 3 days and they don't want to bother taking the charger. If you watch Youtube, use apps (especially games, the phone will not last longer than 3 hours at most). Major issue for me.


At the end just a final warning. When you are buying iPhone do not expect that the 200+ GBP for the phone will be the end of your spending. This is just the beginning. All the decent applications cost money. Personally, I got over the "cool" status of Apple and I am going buying a different smartphone.
