Haha, I love how the crowd cheers when they see that "brilliant peice of engineering" with the new antennas. Yeah, betcha didnt think that it would kill the reception if you held the phone.
After 2 years enyoing my Iphone 3G, I tried something new and had this HTC HD2 for only to days when I decided to return it and go for the IPhone 4. Never before experienced problems with a smart phone as severe as this HD2. The IPhone 4 is a major leap forward compared to its Apple predecessors and as I depend on having a stable OS on a smart phone the IPhone is THE answer!!
They wanted Samsung amoled displays but Samsung turned Apple down, so now the IPS is sooo much better than anything else. Superb engineering with the antennae too, Apple.
The iPhone is great because it performs everything very well and with excellent quality. The multitasking, video capture, FaceTime, Folders, etc. It performs each task very proficiently and with ease. Great phone.
The only real upgrade that I can see is a led light in the back, multitasking and cosmetically its brilliant. Well what about facetime you ask? Wifi only, so unless you and the person you're talking to are near some free wifi its a no go, I dont know about you but I don't live in a big enough city where there is free wifi all around. As slow as ATT network is already I dont see facetime coming into play on 3g at all .
can't wait until the t-mobile one thats coming this fall. Confirmed by t-mobile that apple is negotiating. lol, sj said "24% thinner than GS" I think he meant 3GS. The front facing camera is so awesome!
Got the new iPhone4...been trying to replicate the reception problem...it didnt happen on my handset,no matter how hard i tried to do the so called "death grip"...tried it under the tunnels here in Macau,inside the elevator,inside the washroom,but still signal is full strenght! Wahehe^^,
I don't care what people say, I think the Porsche Panamera looks gorgeous. First time I saw it I was like "uuh pretty ugly", but it's one of those cars that looks better and better the more often you see it.
@meak911 yeah you're right and you have lots of other phones that say: hey look me i have multtasking but pretty much every phones makes it hard to find the way to open it and secondly it isn't as easy to use it as with the iPhone 3G S and the iPhone 4 (yeah the iPod touch 3rd gen as well but you know that i mean that the interface is awesome) and all of the other features the iPhone already has are still in there and have a really good interface as well so that's really nice.
@LVA2010 did you see any biggest leap on iphone? I just feel it was a hype. When I compared to other phone with the iPhone it seems it was far behind in term of OS... I have less complaint about the hardware but the iOS are not so featured like other... example android... I just wish I got an iphone hardware with android. Just to be clear that I just disappointed about how far apple can achieve on their iOS compared to Android OS.
Molly Please explain to me why it would make a difference if you were turn off YOUR OWN Mi-Fi or your tethering from your own cell phone would make load the page faster. 1. In understand if you are doing a live ustream show over their WIfi the high graphic page will not load a quick because of all the data 2. it's not using Verizon or sprint so.tell me why that would make a huge difference. unless the iPhone 4G was running off a MiFi card then yeah but it using apples WiFi which should fast
i agree ...i believe yah it has beautiful design..but about the pricing ,no coment..what about the rumor of the signal ,if u hold on the left side ,the signal lost..kill the rumors b4 the rumor kill the fon..lol
but the phone antennas or how you spell it, when covered with your hand(as in a normal call) will Cause the Bars/service To LOWER! went from 5 to 1 bar!
Let's see.. The Goddamned Blackberry also got some issues such as when it's often to get frozen I mean you can't operate it at all, then you must take off the battery.. However, it's never been a big issue. and more importantly I use Iphone 4 and the signal issue is not really a big issue..
@CNETTV I have at&t with unlimited data/ tethering my phone to my laptop... when I upgrade to the iphone 4 do I have to do the 2GB data instead of unlimited? I don't know if that is enough.
@reviewthis1 , ok lets say Apple decides to add the facetime function to 3G, couple that with the fact that every Iphone 4 user is going to want to use the function on the network. Imagine the bottlenecking thats going to happen here. 3G just isnt the medium to express what this phone could really do, if you can upgrade for free do it, otherwise wait for Iphone 5
Im still in shock I can't beleive apple has this phone its amazing Its like they whent into a time machine and went ahead another 1000 years And created this phone whent back into the time machine and came back to our time All i can say is WOW Apple has really put forth amazing technology
the hype around this phone was so big they couldnt even see how this was a fail... yeah sure it looks good and all and its the latest and greatest iPhone but there are many reasons why this isnt the greatest phone out there right now
@runswithcoyote17 yes but im a right handed. so no problem and i could care less if this is a problem ill still buy it, the only problem i have now is i should of have bought the 32 instead of 16. lol
its the iphone and iphone os which inspired the development of android. The iphone is a legend the android market, the total touch control, hold and move the icon. Inventing a thing is more difficult than improving a thing. Yeah it might be possible one day android will take over the iphone os but the truth will never change that android is inspired by iphone os :)
@justsaynotodrugs Yes, you can stream netflix on the new iphone but with ATT's new data plan good luck trying to keep it under 2GB a month! are you serious!? With talks of LTE already being tried out on Big Red and ATT soon to follow, Ill either wait for the true next Gen Iphone LTE on Verizon or ATT whichever comes first. Using the phone on Att is like having a ferrari with matchbox car tires.
@stillerylj I have an N900, I have no problems using mine, the video calling is integrated with the phone and I will not be buying the N8, in fact I do not want to switch from my N900 simply because it is much better than the N8 or the Iphone. Ask anyone using the N900 how easy it is.
I have had some hands on time with this and i can tell you im honestly disappointed with it ill admit its pretty but i dont want a pretty phone i want great functioning phone and it does that pretty well however i will tell you now if you are left handed then im sorry to say that this phone is extremely difficult to use. Also the device is faster however the multitasking is not as great as i hoped as it literally restarts the first app when you go back to it and that is a big no no.
Can anyone tell me what's those little dots above the receiver on the white iPhone? It can't be seen on the black iPhone and I have no idea what are those dots. It's the second picture of the iPhone gallery on Apple's website. Someone tell me pls? Thanks!
*It's gonna be rough getting used to the Touch screen after like 2 years. What are you gonna do when those sensitive-ass buttons go off in your pocket. After a while the key pad might get stuck, and defeats the actual purpose of being able to use the phone.*...just sayin -_-. Actual padded Keyboards are better.
word wide in september....long time to wait, but it suits me perfect!!! In september i have my confirmation (is it called that in english?) so i get muych money =D And them I`ma buy this baby =) CAN`T WAIT =)
