Apple iPhone: The Future of mobile phones?

Advantages: great look, easy to use interface, many useful aplications... and so much more
Disadvantages: Bluetooth technology is limited, internet access is slow

...way to access the internet. However, the phone which is currnetly only on O2 at the moment shows that apple really have what it takes to dominate the mobile phone market. I urge you all to gt an iphone, they are so easy to use, they look great, and a team of well educated staff are always there in apple shops to help you if you have any problems. another minor detail about this phone which puts me off, is that you cannot transfer data between phones via bluetooth, obviously this is to prevent pirate songs being sent across apples interface, but it would be nice to be able to send photos to a friend via bluetooth instead of using the internet. the camera is two mgapixel which is fine for a phone and can comfortably take good quality photos with it. Also, the voicemail function is a brilliant idea that apple have enhanced their moble...

iPhone: Apple's debut into the the mobile world

Advantages: Sleek, Touch-pad, WiFi, EDGE, Email, Youtube, Safari, iPod
Disadvantages: Lacks practical features

...Apple makes an entry into the world of mobile phones with the release of the iPhone, a cutting-edge piece of technology aimed at revolutionising the cellphone industry. I recently bagged an iPhone and a fair share of delights and disappointments along with it. The Good: -Amazing, state-of-the-art touch pad system that facilitates much accuracy, innovative commands (eg, zoom by pinching and stretching) and multi-touch recognition by simply using one's fingers -2MP Camera: although only 2megapixels, the camera is of very high quality -WiFi, Edge, Bluetooth, SSH support -Built-in, high quality Internet Browser (Safari), Youtube Application and Email Application -Google Map Application, capable of "emulating" a GPS-like system -iPOD integrated into phone, iTunes support, Standard Audio Format support -POTENTIAL: The integrated OS...

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM MOBILE PHONES DIRECT

Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Dodgy dealer

...This is a warning message from a buyer who bought his phone from this didgy website - mobilephonesdirect.com. I bought a N97 brand new phone with T mobile contract. I was very happy for about a week, then on the second week the phone started to behave odd. It deleted all my files and was coming up with message saying 'memory is in use'. I called up mobile phones direct but the person was quite rude the way he handled the call and told me to write email to their webshop and also said there is no live customer service support. The email service would take 5 days to send a reply back. (quote from their website - "Here at Mobile Phones Direct, we're committed to providing you with the best customer service in the mobile phone industry" [http://www.mobilephonesdirect.co.uk/customerServices/index.aspx]) So I did email their web shop...

Review of Mobile Phones Direct

New phone, cash & free Wii...

Advantages: good service, prompt, excellent deals
Disadvantages: the ID giving process is a chore!!

...About this time last year, one of my work friends got her phone upgraded, and then a couple of weeks later, she received a free ipod. I was absolutely amazed - and could have kicked myself as I had only had an upgrade on my mobile a month or so before. She had been told about this great site called "Buymobilephones.net" by a friend and had given it a go. I forgot all about it until I had the usual pesky phone call from my service provider about my phone upgrade. I then had a brain wave and basically told the gentleman where to go when I remembered my friends phone (she had since left) hung the phone up and then when directly to the site in question to see what deals there were to be had. Buymobilephones.net - look & use of the website To be perfectly honest, going on to the website I...

An excellent PDA/Mobile Phone

Advantages: Everything about the phones features
Disadvantages: Costly if you dont have a contract. Only avaliable from o2

...wanted an organiser that looking back now was rubbish! They only had two lines of input as a screen, a basic calendar and a notepad of some description and an address book! How things have moved on. I read about their new pda's and found out that they had combined a very high powered PDA with a mobile phone and more features on top! They have several out, all very similar but this one stood out for me. I went to the o2 shop in town near me and asked to see the range in the flesh so I can actually see what they are like. She brought all three out and one (the executive one) was massive! It was too big. Then this one was given to me. The mini. The baby of the range. He was small, rounded and compact. It was like love at first sight! Ii asked the shop assistant how much the handset was and she replied 275.00! I was shocked! But that price was...

Review of XDA Mini S, PDA/Mobile Phone

The best iPod / Phone!

Advantages: unbelivably sexy and beautiful, wonderful internet and video / music
Disadvantages: needs a couple of firmware updates to become the perfect phone

...common that Apple were to launch a phone of some description, and these rumours were put to bed on the 29th June 2007 when Apple announced the iPhone. It was initially launched with a 4GB and 8GB memory, but was also launched into some confusion. The trademark iPhone actually belonged to Cisco. Whilst the details of the settlement were never announced, Cisco allowed Apple to use the term iPhone, which in these days of litagation, could have spelt trouble for the iPhone's launch. It was in London of September 2007 that Apple announced that the iPhone was to be launched in the UK on the 9th of November 2007, along with Germany and France. It would be launched in the UK with O2, Germany with T-Mobile and France with Orange. Various commentators have speculated that O2 could be giving 40% of their revenue from each iPhone customer to Apple, which...

Review of Apple iPhone

iPhone

Advantages: Touchscreen, easy to use
Disadvantages: Slightly confusing menus

...Previously had a Samsung, loved it's simplicity and the fact it was flawless. Everything worked, easy to use yet still up to date with technology However, I recently lost the it and was given an iPhone, this phone is way 'cooler' than any phone I have ever had. Apple are taking technology in mobile phones way further than other brands I feel, ok there are flaws but where there are flaws there are exceptions with other cool gadgets that have made me completely forget about comparing it to my previous mobiles. For example, Google Maps, easy to use and very sufficient Internet use, amazing screen quality with touch screen buttons that actually work... really well too! In fact the touch screen buttons is one of the main reasons I recommend this phone, although Sony Erricson and other brands have reached into touchscreen I don't feel any...

Is Your Mobile Phone Harming Your Health

Advantages: see review
Disadvantages: see review

...A few years ago, mobile phones were something of a rarity, mainly owned by businessmen and yuppies, but in a relatively short space of time and largely thanks to the introduction of pre-paid schemes it now seems that anyone - regardless of age - who doesn't have a mobile is in the minority. To some, they are essential, to others a mere fashion accessory, but to most of us they are just damn useful to have around, however, along with their increased usage has come concerns over their safety and calls for investigation... The Cause For Concern? Mobile phones are low power devices which link to base stations through the emmision of radio waves. Radio waves have of course been used as an effective means of communication for over 100 years now, yet it is the sheer number of mbile devices now which are leading to concern being expressed...

  Sexiest Phone Ever?

Advantages: Stylish, small, light, durable
Disadvantages: Battery life not great, looks dirty quickly, ring volume too low

..., after all, I rarely use my mobile for anything other than calls and texts. I've had phones by all the other major mobile phone manufacturers (Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, Motorola), but never an LG, so I was keen to see how it compared. When my phone arrived I looked at the box and just thought 'wow!'. I was sure I'd chosen a quality product, and this was before I'd even seen the phone itself. I've never seen such a nicely packaged mobile phone. There is a cardboard sleeve on the box with a picture of the phone, nothing too special, but under this cardboard sleeve is the sexiest mobile phone box ever! It's very posh looking, and even has a magnetic fastening! It looks more like something you'd expect to house an expensive item of jewellery, only perhaps a little larger. On top of the box is a little LG symbol with the slogan 'Life's Good...
