    Advantages Advantages Excellent product

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Sometimes my fingers just aren't small enough

    Years ago, when mobile phones first came out, the general consensus amongst most people was along the lines of ‘what could possibly be so important that you’d want to walk around town talking on the phone’ and of course they were the size of house bricks so anyone with one couldn’t help but look like a complete idiot. When smart phones first came out I was pretty much of the same opinion, who would want to sit in the pub browsing the internet – just plain rude, why would you want to pay so much when all you need to do with a phone is text and call. So I was never going to have an iPhone – so ... more

    Advantages Advantages Built in ipod, internet browser and overall apperance

    Disadvantages Disadvantages battery life and price

    My husband bought me my iphone 3gs for Christmas, I had dropped plenty of hints and it paid off for once! I think its about time I reviewed it now. Availability- I bought my iphone 3gs from a o2 shop (pay as you go) for £440, I suggest that you look around for the best deal, I found it depends what network you want effects the price, there are great contract deals available in most phone shops. Apples official website sells them and great accessories for the phone too. Getting started- The box is small but holds everything you need to get started, once you have the phone out the box you will ... more

    Advantages Advantages It does everything!!!!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The camera and battery life.

    I've had my iPhone 3GS 16GB for about six months now. I know plenty of reviews have been written about the phone and some would say there's nothing left to say, but I am going to share my experiences with you and tell you all the things I wish I'd known before I made my purchase. I didn't intend to buy an iPhone, but when my phone contract came up for renewal I realised that the age of cheap phone contracts has come and gone. I was being quoted about £20 for a SIM only package which I thought was pretty steep. So I started to have a look at the new models on offer, I knew the iPhone was the ' ... more

    Advantages Advantages Apps, music, touchscreen

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Battery life

    Probably a little late on this review since there has been at least another 2 upgrades to this but I'm still rockin' mine so thought I'd go for it. I was a little sceptical about getting an iPhone at first but thought I would go with the crowd so when my contract was ready for an upgrade I decided to join the iPhone club. I have never been a fan of Apple products or software & this phone pretty much sums up why. So I get my eagerly awaited package from the delivery guy, open the box & immediately I am at a loss. Not being one for instructions I crack on & just want it to work immediately but ... more

    Advantages Advantages The intuitive unterface; Out of the box use; The general overall quality of the device; Durability

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The lack of physical feedback from touch; It has it's moments of sluggishness

    I am afraid to admit that prior to owning my 3GS I was an Apple 'naysayer'. I had never owned anything manufactured by apple, and I never had any desire to. Then one day when my contract came up for review I opted for a Nokia... it broke within four days of ownership, so I was allowed to choose another phone... After speaking for well over an hour to an adviser from my network provider I took a punt an ordered an iPhone 3GS, which at the time was the latest model. My phone arrived in the afternoon the following day in a sleek network branded box. After spending an embarrassing length of time ... more
