Apple has taken the iPhone to the next level and added some excellent features, including 3G/HSDPA, GPS and support for Microsoft Exchange email. You still can't send MMS and there's only a 2-megapixel camera, but overall it's a wonderful experience. Read more
Not the perfect product, but certainly the best multimedia phone on the market at this point. The future seems bright for the iPhone : the possibility of acquiring new applications means that it will constantly be able to do more and it's new business capabilities will certainly bring in new fans.

The new iPhone improves on its near-perfect predecessor, and at this price, Apple is on its way to taking over the world of mobile phones in the same way it did MP3 players Read more
When the original iPhone arrived in November 2007, it was preceded by massive hype. But a lot of people in the UK who were interested held back. We’d like to think they were guided by a thoughtful and careful technological principle: “Never buy version 1.0”. But, in reality, the high price, stingy O2 contract, lack of 3G and GPS, plus the lackluster camera, all weighed heavily against the iPhone. Read more
Sounds like youve all been sucked in on this one! Ill wait for the N96-N97! Sounds like youve all bought an Ipod that dials out! You all keep on paying on youtre 18 month contracts! MUGS Read more
I was tentative about this phone at first because of it's shortcomings (ie; no MMS, only a 2MP camera etc) but I decided on this instead of Blackberry HD Touch and so far I'm not regretting choosing the iPhone. I seriously love the apps feature, the games keep the kids quiet on boring journeys. One thing I still don't like is the damn crappy headphones that come with this phone or the iPod Touch which I also have, I've since bought a mic headphone switcher and some Sony... Read more
Very good phone with a sleek design, reminds me of the PS3 a bit, has loads of downloadable content off the apps store anything from games to restaurant advice, you can also download your favourite songs off iTunes while on the move, very easy to use but you can't delete music straight from the phone you must plug it in to a computer or Mac first, the speaker quality is also very poor. But overall a great phone. Read more
My wife has just got this phone. She is delighted with it and finds it the easiest to use phone she has ever had. As far as I am concerned, I agree with her. The only think I find to criticize is when using the touch keypad, it is easy to press the wrong key as they are close together and I have big fingers! The battery life seems OK so far. The camera is not great, but who cares, it`s a PHONE not a Nikon D300! Overall, Apple have done a good job and it certainly looks... Read more
After initially resisting the urge to splash out on an iPhone when the first generation model was launched, I finally conceded to the allure when my current contract ran out in February 2009. By this time the 3g had been launched and the improvements it afforded over the previous model made it an attractive option. I toyed for while between the iPhone and a Blackberry but based on the fact I was neither a middle-aged business man nor a twenty-something Californian, I... Read more
