the iphone only fails majorly in one department
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....

Perfect design
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 othe...

Wouldn't recommend it to others.
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 operateThere 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 freez...

Apple iPhone
I've had my iPhone for a few months now and I absolutely love it. You can chose from thousands of different applications to keep you entertained, plan journeys, order online etc. I use the map feature quite a lot when travelling round cities.You get the full Internet on the iphone (not mobile Internet) so you can browse and buy without having to navigate some bad mobile website. It's also pretty fast.As a mobile the iPhone is obviously not that small, however it is extremely thin. So...

Review after 18 moths of use!............
I have now owned my iPhone 3g for roughly 18 months, I mostly use the phone for recreational reasons but also for business occasionally.I have not gotten board of this phone even after 18 months, I seem to be using and messing about with it all the time like I only bought it yesterday! The main issue with the addictiveness of the phone is that the misses really really hates it! (even though she wants one her self!).Pros:1.Durability, in my case the phone has held up extremely w...

Not good as a phone at all :-(
Ok this is the 3g version I am reviewing and not the 3gs, so I am not aware of any improvements that may have been made on the newer model.Good bits:- I do love the iphone, but unfortunately not as a phone. It's brilliant for everything else, a lot of the apps are really great and are either free or really cheap and there's virtually an app for everything! The calendar is great and easy to create a reminder. The Ipod function is really good and I think it sounds better than the separate...

Not as practical as it ought to be.
I have had the phone for six months and I use it mainly for business. The sounds are a little weak, particularly the calendar appointments reminder which is virtually useless, hence late appointments. The qwerty keyboard is not up to scratch. Too many re-enterings. The touch screen does not always respond immediately and some times like ending phone calls not at all. Away from the strict practicalities and necessities of business it is a great novelty and fun. For business: No. Paddy Murphy

Not brilliant as a phone
I have an iPhone 3G and my wife has original iPhone, neither are clear quality on voice calls compared to Nokia & Sony Ericsson previously owned. It drops calls more often as well. Signal strength meter bears no relation to actual signal!Also the sim card slot has to be held in with sellotape as the inside spring isn't working properly. They won't cover it under guarantee because the bottom strip inside the charge socket has turned red (google it) so voiding warranty even though nothing t...

Only one complaint.....
I have the 8g version, and it's brilliant. The internet is very quick to download,Photographs are second to none, and it is so easy to use. I am a senior citizen, so if I can use it anyone can!My only complaint is that it doesn't have a bar to connect your mobile 'danglies'.Expensive....yes...but it is worth every penny.
