The iPhone 3GS is a major step forward from the iPhone 3G, because of the much faster processor, improved camera with (smooth, not choppy) video capability, and a better GPS performance with added compass and other features. Apart of that, the iPhone 3GS is pretty much the same as 3G. The biggest weakness of any iPhone so far has been the short battery life. Apple has built a great smartphone with a large bright and high-quality LCD screen that is capable of playing video and music, and performing all sorts of energy-consuming tasks... and the battery remains the same as the very first version if iPhone 1st Generation. On a bad day (when I use my phone more) I'm lucky if my battery lasts for more than 3-4 hours. I implore Apple to fix this issue with the next iPhone coming up in June 2010! Another issue that bothers me a lot is the lack of Adobe Flash technology, which makes a large percentage of popular websites unavailable for viewing on the iPhone. This is probably due to some financial politics between Apple and Adobe, two of the world's most amazing companies- but unfortunately in this case the ones that suffer are the users. Although I really love my iPhone 3GS and want to give it 5 stars, because of the battery life and the limited web browsing, I am unable to give it more than 4 stars. Which is still a lot higher than most other phones for sale on the North American market today.Read full review
Apple has released another new iPhone - the 3GS - to stave off the competition from the Palm Pre and the HTC Magic. But is it worth the super-high upgrade charges, given the iPhone 3G with the new 3.0 software is very similar? The iPhone 3GS was delivered by Phil Schiller rather than Lord Jobs on high, and a packed crowd hung on his every word, lapping up every new feature Apple had deigned to bestow upon us. The thing is it didn't take long, as essentially Apple has released a new phone that bears a very significant resemblance to the original version. In fact, the only palpable difference in the chassis is the iPhone lettering is now mirrored in the same way as the Apple logo was on the last iteration. Of course, with the new iPhone 3GS (the 'S' apparently standing for speed) we're getting a whole host of new features, essentially an improved processor (up to an apparent 600MHz according to a recent T-Mobile leak), a better 3MP camera with video recording and an upgrade to 32GB of memory. The curious thing about the new iPhone release is not only that it doesn't bring a whole lot of new hardware in the latest upgrade (we're not talking the essential jump from 2G to 3G here) but it's also been released to coincide with the launch of the iPhone 3.0 firmware update. That in itself brings a whole host of new extras to the iPhone game. Check out our in depth review of the new software to find out what snazzy extras Apple has brought to the party.Read full review
GOOD THINGS: well, the things that I like iphone is that it can provide me a very quick information from short cut buttons. For examples, with mails button I can connect very quickly to my Gmail account and reply e-mails very quickly. For thoese who is investing in stock market, you can set up your own stocks screen and it also provide graphically analysis for you. So you can quickly get that information on how stocks moves. The other things that I like is that Iphone has many cool application for free download. For example, games & maps also development tools for Iphone developers. BAD THINGS: I can't directly delete the application from my memory by clicking an X mark. Instead of that I have to go ahead and connect to internet connection and un-install it online through "install" applicaton. This is a waste of time and phone net is not that fast enough to do many applications in one day. Also When I keep connecting to the internet the Iphone will get hotter. If you put an Iphone near your ear to call your friends after internet you will feel that heat coming off. BUT OVER ALL ARE GREAT I LOVE IT SO I WILL GIVE 8/10 FOR IPHONE AT&TRead full review
I am going to take some time here to explain the differences between the iPhone 3GS that we all know and love and the glamorous new iPhone 4. In my opinion, it is quite clear that the 3GS and the 4 are solid products. The few faults in the news regarding the iPhone 4 are truly unimportant and in most cases, the problems that users come up with have nothing to do with what we now call "antenna-gate" or the grip of death that causes signal trouble. With regards to the signal trouble, you will not experience the issue at all in high or strong signal areas. Also, you need to be holding the iPhone in one specific way (usually in your left hand) in order to experience the issue. I do not feel that these issues are relevant enough to sway anyone's decision on whether or not to buy the iPhone 4. Both the 3GS and the 4 are unlockable as long as you make sure not to update your software version via iTunes before the community figures out how to unlock the current version. You must wait to upgrade, but this very rarely means anything and a new unlock solution has always surfaced. So we say, for all iPhones, be patient with upgrades or you will lose your unlock. All this being said, I am just going to throw it out there...I choose the 3GS!! The iPhone 4 has FaceTime, a fabulous retina display, and a new faster processor. Yep, that's about all it has over the 3GS. The iPhone 3GS lacks FaceTime and sports a bit of a less remarkable screen, plus a moderately slower processor, is that really it? Yep! That's about it! Not only this, the feel of the rounded 3GS in your hand is much much more comfortable than the squared corner feel of the iPhone 4. I think this is a KEY difference. It feels awkward to hold the new 4 in your hand for a phone call. The 3GS definitely feels more natural and is easier on the hand. You may not believe me, but THIS is the biggest difference in my mind. Aside from that, the screen and processor are differences to be noted, but the 4 is no Secretariat, if you know what I mean. I tell everyone to wait on buying the iPhone 4. If all things were normal, I would suggest the upgrade, but with the tremendous premium you must pay to get one right now is not warranted unless you want a conversation starter for a phone. If I weren't running the Android, much better than the iPhone iOS in most areas, then I would be using a 3GS. Again, just my opinion, hope it helps!! --ShapMobileRead full review
I've owned all iterations of the iPhone--and this is by far the one I was most impressed with. The switch from the 3g-- 3gS puts the previous 1st-- 3g jump to shame. The 3gS variants are almost identical to the previous 3G iPhones. The major changes are NOT cosmetic in nature. The CPU has been improved from 412mhz to 600mhz, the ram has been doubled, a new graphics chip has been installed (providing OpenGL support), a new camera, and an internal compass has been built in (see more). Sadly, there is STILL no 3rd party routing software available--google maps is sufficient though. Thoughts: 3G vs. 3G S 1. The battery life for both is rather similar. SLIGHT improvement in the 3G S. 2. The LCD digitizer (touchscreen) is practically the same with both editions--3G seems brighter. 3. Dimensions and case sizes are nearly identical--3G S is a bit thinner. The engravings on the back are different, but you're getting the same pretty case from the 3G. 4. Unaided GPS (without AT&T tower assistance) is just about as weak in both models... but the 3G S sports an internal compass, allowing for amazing accuracy and directional navigation while hiking and "street-walking". Hands down, the best new addition to the 3G S. 5. The new CPU and graphics chip combine for SIGNIFICANTLY decreased loading times when partaking in both graphically intensive gaming, and everyday activities (web browser loading). In games, this contributes to increased frame rates which are highly noticeable. 6. The internal camera has been boosted from a paltry 2mp to an adequate 3mp. It's not spectacular, but it's in line with current offerings. It features autofocus, which is a very nice addition. FINALLY, users have built-in video recording capability without going to extreme lengths. What is disturbing about this model: 1. Do NOT let it overheat. Make sure you keep it charged in a cool location with sufficient airflow. This means DON'T put it on fabric. Don't overcharge, and be sure to inspect (check for overheating) regularly. The first time it overheats (it will be HOT to the touch), the battery output will GREATLY diminish (1/2 to 1/3 capacity), and should be changed through Apple. 2. There is NO apple-supplied application for checking and resetting the iPhone battery. This is provided for MacBooks, but not the iPod line 3. As with all iPhone models, buy a case--a Zagg InvisibleShield to protect it from scratches and the odd bump/bruise--or a silicone case--I highly recommend a screen protector. iPhones are FRAGILE (see below). 4. Internal components are flush with the case, and simple dents will cause components/features to fail. 5. DO NOT attempt to open ANY iPhone model for repair if you do not have experience--the cases/trim are prone to dents/bends, and you are likely to scratch/damage internal components if you attempt to replace the digitizer or battery yourself (the most common repairs). It is better to take them directly to Apple stores for repair. 6. Based on who you talk to, Apple will ONLY honor the 1 year manufacturer warranty if the iPhone is linked to an AT&T contract. If you have Jailbroken/Unlocked your iPhone, reset it to factory firmware and specifications before attempting to deal with Apple Repair. 7. No external HD capacity detected--camera only. 8. You have to deal with iTunes to activate and sync music. 9. Still no front-based camera for video-conferencing... very important to business users. Hope this helpedRead full review
