Mr_Dogg Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 It's beautiful but I've heard that's it's best feature. And you get raped for the price and tariff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I would never buy an apple product. Ever. If I were you I would just get the latest Sony-Ericsson - great phones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 It's beautiful but I've heard that's it's best feature. And you get raped for the price and tariff. Id assume the same. Very pretty but technically inferior to and more expensive than than the competition! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Dogg Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 It can't send MMS. :? Which is kinda silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrchnry Posted November 16, 2007 Author Share Posted November 16, 2007 had a look at the viewty on the three website and think im gonna go with that. just need to see if you can use the touch screen without the little stick as i think it makes people look like a bit of a clearing in the woods. can anyone suggest a good network then? i've just lest tmobile as it was the worst service i've ever had using anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amsterdam_Neil_D Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I have had 1 on demo at work for a day or so.........There is a lot of things it can't do compared to a N95 for example so I won't be getting one, even with the discount i get at work.

PauloBarnesi Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I ve used one. It can’t do loads of stuff that other phones do. The ease of use of it however means that its in a class of one. I wouldn’t get one, but in a year when lots of things are improved I probably will... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Great bit of kit, not so great as a phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 id advise aginst buying this, the amount you have to pay for the phone is it worth it? i was in the states a couple weeks ago and saw this phone its a good little gizmo however the size of it is poor and really do you need it? i ahve an ipod, i have a camera so what do i need this for? its more of a gadget that people want to show off. also the tariffs available are poor. your paying a fortune for a rubbish deal. i also know they are already working on a smaller version...

JohnCresswell Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 if you need to send the same txt to two seperate people, you have to type it out twice, apparently. thats a bit crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must have cut and paste??? They will be able to update the software that should get rid of the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwpzxjor1 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 It's Apple's first phone. Wait a year or so for them to iron out the problems and then have a look at what they have. Apple make fantastic stuff, my love my iPod and I need a new laptop so I'm saving up for an iBook, but with any company making a product for the first time - it's going to have problems.

Demitri_C Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 johns right, it doesnt allow you to forward which is really dumb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant(aka_eddy) Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 The thing about the iphone is that it is stunning looking, but that conflicts with the fact that it is an everyday item taht is often carried around in a manner that produces wear and tear. Inevitably something this nice (and expesive) will be wrapped up in a case that adds to the size and detracts from the aesthetics. I have a Nokia N95 which is pretty shit hot as a camera phone, but importantly after 9 months or so, with only a protective film on the (slightly sunken and therefore less susceptible to scratching anyway) screen, it is still in very good nick.

Coleshill_Villa24 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 I'm happy with my Nokia N95. Apparently there is now a N95 8GB, but i've got a 6GB card in my phone anyway so i'm sure it's not much difference! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats the speed like for running it as an mp3 player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
