Due to be released later in July is a mobile phone destined to be the shining light of
O2's product range. But can it really be as good as people say? C an the
Apple iPhone 3G really beat all other
mobile phones?
Apple iPhone 3G - just look at the features!
At the start of June, an announcement was made that made fans of
mobile phones and Apple lovers especially, go gaga with excitement. It'd been nearly a year since the first iPhone had been unveiled, and now, the newest version had just been let out of the bag. It's due to be unleashed on the world, on
O2, in July. But how is this new
Apple iPhone 3G better than other
mobile phones? Well, first of all, it has an amazing 3.5 inch touchscreen, so that all the slick features and powerful functions are there for you, quite literally, at your fingertips. And you'll be flicking through menus with glee, very quickly, as the
Apple iPhone 3G is the second device in the history of
mobile phones to be built on top of the amazingly easy to use Apple OS-X. Only one other mobile phone can say that, and that was the original iPhone.
You may recall that there was a certain amount of criticism aimed at the original iPhone. Other
mobile phones have more features, they said, other
mobile phones are more powerful. And then, despite the beautiful interface, they were correct. Other
mobile phones DID outperform the iPhone, although, that's will be a lot more difficult to do with the
Apple iPhone 3G, coming soon on
O2. The big thing that the first iPhone lacked was 3G, and that was where other, more established
mobile phones won hands down. That's not an issue now, though, as the
Apple iPhone 3G, as the name suggests, joins the world of
mobile phones that DO have 3G. And boy is it fast, as it uses HSDPA, letting you connect to the internet at up to 3Mbps. On top of that, you have GPS, and we should all understand how useful and invaluable that is!
Apple iPhone 3G - have O2 got the best phone ever? After the all the hype, is the
Apple iPhone 3G really a brave new world for
mobile phones? Is it ACTUALLY that important? I say it is, but maybe not in the way you think...
You see, the
Apple iPhone 3G is, just like its forerunner, flawed. It's not all great, and whilst that applies to most
mobile phones, with the
Apple iPhone 3G, it's being called the ultimate phone. However, if you choose just ONE feature, the camera, you'll see that in that particular field it's average at best, and at worst, total rubbish. In the present world of
mobile phones with cameras built in, that's a very bad thing. So, if it's not perfect, why is the
Apple iPhone 3G so important? Simple, it's because the
Apple iPhone 3G, coming soon on
O2, has provoked other
mobile phones to up their game. So, manufacturers like Nokia and Sony Ericsson are really fighting to make up ground, and take on this challenger. That's why it's important: the
Apple iPhone 3G is forcing manufacturers to make even more powerful
mobile phones, and hey, that's got to be a good thing for us, the customers!
