    4 Stars still better than most smartphones 07/10/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages easy to use, apps, cool, light

    Disadvantages Disadvantages outdated,

    This iphone is still pretty good compared to smartphones, definatley durable, and has some cool apps, you can jailbreak it to make it even more fun. this phone is definatlely worth it. This iphone can take still images it can record video, it can also use wifi or 3g, it is avaible with at&t to my knowledge and it is really cheap with a 2 yr contract about .99 cents maybe less. You can purchase this one or any of the newer iphones such as the 4 4s or the 5. but they are a little pricy and they are the same except this phone is round and does not have the famous siri messanger or assistant but ... more

    4 Stars More than just a phone! 06/08/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Multi use device

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Battery life

    I held back getting an iPhone because of the cost, but since taking the plunge I have not looked back. I've had the phone for just under 2 years, so I could have gone for the iPhone 4, but when I weighed up the extra features I couldn't see the point of paying more as the 3G does everything I need. Basically you can video call on the iPhone 4, but I have no interest in this function. The 3G 8gb features 1) Camera It's a backwards facing camera, so you can't photograph yourself like with the iPhone 4, but then who wants to take photos of themselves? The camera is 3 mega pixels, so not great ... more

    4 Stars My Experience With I Phone 3 GS 16GB 29/06/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Gentle appearance. Good applets arrangement and usage, good photography

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Poor battery life. Not very strong sounding.

    I have used this I Phone 3 GS smart phone almost 2 years now. There are positive and negative properties of this phone. By the way, it was my first smart phone to use. The shape and the outfit of it performed good. Mine is a white one. To start with the screen. It performed well enough and I didn't have a serious crack or scratch , despite I dropped it on the floor at least 4 times. Sound output was not very good. Internet connectivity was O.K. Photo taking has been a kind of good experience for me. Pictures are clear enough. Bluetooth function tricked me sometimes. This phone is coupled fine ... more

    5 Stars Is an Apple iPhone worth the £400? 01/05/2012

    Advantages Advantages Advanages of the iPhone include the ease of use, vibrance of graphics and overall style.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Very few with only the loss of availability for recent updates.

    After having trouble with a previous HTC (Wildfire) I made the conscious decision to splash out the £400 it takes to purchase one on pay as you go. Due to the constant freezing and slow nature of the HTC, an iPhone was a welcome breeze with its latest technology features such as a 12 mega pixel camera and ios 5 updates. First time set up:To do this, all that was required was to download itunes from the apple site and use the given adapter cable to plug into my computer. This download only took a few minutes and was well worth it due to the good display of media it allows. Subsequently, this ... more

    3 Stars Overall, it was a good phone, at it's time. Review with images 13/04/2012
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages It is an Apple product, you get the luxury of Apple's iOS.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Older version.

    This is a very good phone. Let me start off by saying, Apple has become one of the most respected brands. People shell out hundreds of dollars simply to have the Apple logo on their new devices. The Apple iPhone 3GS 16GB had it's time when it was the supreme leader of all phones. On the plus side, it is quick with AT&T's fast network, and it's much clearer in visibility than most smartphones that are currently available. On top of that, this product will most likely be free if you get it from Apple or from AT&T, so you will save yourself roughly $300 dollars on a new iPhone. If you are ... more

    4 Stars So close, but yet so far... Review with images 09/04/2012
    User recommends the product

    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

    4 Stars A few squibbles, but overall a good phone 05/04/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good-looking device, easy to use (once you get used to it), good quality camera

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Internet is a bit of a letdown in my opinion, pretty heavy device, damnyouautocorrect

    The iphone, like all apple products, has a minimal design, it looks slick, sophisticated and - that's right - a little bit futuristic, even if the weight of the thing makes it hang heavy in the pocket. The menu is also simple to use and similarly nicely designed; obviously if you're stepping up to using an iphone for the first time, it takes some time getting used to it as with anything, but it's easy to become comfortable with. The thing I found hardest to get accustomed to was the touch-screen keyboard (I have man-fingers, and therefore had to adapt and tap the screen with the large things ... more

    5 Stars Great phone 05/02/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Fantastic and fast

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Connection

    I have had this phone for nearly 2 years and there has been no problems at all, its a great phone! The phone itself is very fast and feels great in hand and with over 600 thousand apps, you can never get bored! Games run very smooth on the phone and so do the videos from youtube and no blur at all! The camera may be only 3MP, but the picture is still clear and sharp and so is the video recording. I tend to find sometimes that the games flicker and automatically shut off and sometimes the phone crashes when only doing very basic things. Also the connection can be lost very easily on the phone ... more

    5 Stars MY BRILLIANT PHONE 03/02/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages great phone

    Disadvantages Disadvantages battery life

    I have had my IPhone for a while now and I love it so! I had wanted 1 for ages, but always put off getting one. I've never had a contract Phone and was considering taking this on contract just to get my hands on one, but I always held back. It would have been a good way to pay it up, but the thought of paying £30 a month and being tied into a 2 year contact just didn't sit right with me. So the phone would end up costing me £720. Fair enough I would get 100 minutes and think it was unlimited text and internet (not sure about those things though), but it just seemed so pricey. Then again the ... more
