  Great Piece of Technology

The iPhone is a great piece of technology with one of the easiest and practical User Interface's I have seen and used, the only other to be be close is the Mac OS X operating system, with the window scrolling and touch screen I think the iPhone is even better and easier to use.

I'm sure people will like it even more once some new app's start to appear and they get the hang of using the little hidden features in the GUI.
If your into technology this is one device you'll appreciate and get a lot of use out of.
This phone truly sets out the future generation, for mobile devices!

I mean just look at it isn't it beautiful!
The moment I saw apple iphone I fell in love !

It would have been good if they had a 16GB like the iPod touch but what more can you ask for in this package ?
It's just the best ! It's like having a mini Mac in your hand !

And it's the best phone I have owned ! and i have have had a few. !

It's an Excellent Piece of Technology !!!

  Should you really get an iPhone?

Well... should you?

Basically, the iPhone is great. Be warned though that the internet can be slower than you might have been led to believe. If you have Wi-Fi you will have no probs really but the vast majority of people won't have that access at work, on the train, in the city etc... so it will either go to EDGE which is slower, or GPRS slower still. Also; if the phone is roaming for Wi-Fi all the time the battery will drain well within a day - you can turn off the Wi-Fi search easily though. Some functions like You Tube will only operate in Wi-Fi or EDGE (although it's not worth watching on EDGE as it's too slow to stream)

As for e-mail - It uses a pull system where by the max frequency is every 15 mins. I think that this is more than adequate personally. Anyone who tells you that the keyboard is hard to use either only tried it once, has no dexterity or very fat fingers! After a few texts and e-mails it becomes as natural as breathing. Thumbs up for that!

Generally speaking the functionality is fantastic - the iPod, the pics, the calender, maps etc all good. The camera isn't great but for basic pics of nights out / pets and so on it's more than adequate.

The build quality is good too - although I live in constant fear of scratching the screen (screen protectors are available). It is not a robust phone and the fact that you can't swap the sim to a less valuable phone to do 'outdoory' things is annoying.

It has a good signal strength in low signal areas and, when not constantly looking for Wi-Fi, has a reasonable stand-by battery time. It is also really easy to get started and link to a PC - if I can manage it anyone can!

Overall - the phone is awesome. Is it worth £260 + £35 / month for 18 months? Well possibly not. I can see the price dropping considerably within 6 months as the competition from other mobile manufacturers builds up.

A warning - ONLY BUY THESE FROM O2, APPLE OR CARPHONE WHEREHOUSE! If you get them from anywhere else you are throwing you money away 'cos it won't work in the UK.

My advice to anyone who doesn't have money to throw away is just hang fire and wait for three to six months to see what the price does. If you are a gadget freak then just get it because it will entertain you for weeks.

I hope this has helped you make your mind up - I am glad I got it but feel guilty for what is a considerable splash of cash!

Have fun deciding!

  Apple iPhone (8 GB) Mobile Phone

This is a great phone as it does so much. As it plays music, it means I only have to carry one item instead of two (phone instead of phone and mp3 player). You can use it to find places and to find out how long it takes to get to certain places. It is great for storing photo's including any you may have already stored on your computer. A downside is that it did not come with any games installed but that was easierly fixed.

The only problem is you can not really have it as a pay as you go phone. If you are going to swap sim card and use it that way, you paid a lot of money for a standard phone - all you can do with it is make phone calls, you can not use any of the gadgets on the phone!! I found that out after I got mine and swapped sim cards.

It is a fantastic phone that does so much and gets used a lot more than my old phone.
