iPhone, Three Months Later - Review

2007-10-07
hey guys john here with a i guess three month review here for you on the apple iphone so like i said i've had it for three months pretty much since launch day which i believe was jun 29th and i wanted to give you guys an assessment of what i liked about it what I haven't liked about it and I'm going to keep it up so everybody was already you knows you know the iphone looks like what the interface looks like it's a little bit glared there but you've seen it you know the recently the iTunes Wi-Fi store was updated so first time I start with the things I like about the phone the internet browsing on it is amazing as you can see in the iPhone used one and two when I load a bleep ESPN the browsing is a second to none no other mobile phone that I've seen his commitment close it's it's real rich HTML website so you can zoom in and scroll and that's unbelievable I've never seen anything like that I've been through a lot of phones of China mall I BlackBerry's windows mobile haven't tried symbian which was close but not nearly as good and he also I've got a good sense of perspective on it the browser is unbelievable the mp3 port jeff part of it so the ipod part is amazing as well for watching videos the thing is is great to the widescreen really makes videos pop out at you and for music it's great just like any other ipod the quality is good and the controls are nice with the touch screen so you know that's what i like about it i like the like the widgets i like like the way the phone i like to have the operating system worked it's very elegant it makes it fun to work and when you push send and like how the thing pops up i delete a picture i like how the image looks like it's actually going in the trash it's very fun to use even though things take an extra step or two it's still very nice and very enjoyable some things I don't like about it I've been through this before but I do a lot of traveling for work small eyes on the road and always have to stay connected with email the email application on this is awful it's really really really bad and here's why when an email comes in to get the header dulce new email for John Appleseed so click the email from Johnny Appleseed and it'll just spin and if you're on edge it'll spin 4 45 50 seconds before the text the message comes up times even longer time is well you can tell you it can't be downloaded from the server even if the email is just a sentence long that sucks when you need to be quick reply or need to get a quick message out if you're on Wi-Fi something that's quicker and you just don't know when the how longs it take to read your emails so that's really a big big big downside of this and since I'm on the road a lot I stay connected with friends and colleagues with instant messaging and to message on the iphone is really non-existent outside of you know hacked third party apps around there before the software update and using safari IM programs which are barely usable as far as I'm concerned they really know I am on it so the phone is not the business mans travel companion that some make it out to be so you know it's been 23 months and I really had a chance to blow it and get to use it i love the iphone and i haven't actually have to decide yet for going to keep it or not if i'm going to change for a windows mobile go back to blackberry because i really need that email and i have to have an I keep hoping that Apple is going to fix your email program and that's why I've kept it this long every day I keep hoping that they're going to fix it so you can kludge am I going to keep the iphone probably you know maybe i'll get something between this and iphone too i don't know i'll let you guys know but anybody looking for a phone that's a great mp3 player that they can browse online with now the iphone is a great way to go I'm sure everybody's going to say why not just get a ipod touch and get some other phone because even if I turn this iphone all jar i'll still get the iphone too and i'll be stuck with two players do the same as I assume iphone too will fix all the these bugs and add a chat and all that stuff and all the features that I want her with in apples ability to put in to this current iphone and it's a little frustrating that they haven't yet I didn't hack my iphone and if I did I would have been a little upset that the the program's got locked out after one point one point one somebody guys want to give you quick updates on the iphone like I said earlier two great phone foam wise it's a good phone call quality is great the camera actually is really good as well no mms is a little annoying also you can't have a mess on the phone up enabled mms since my old nokia i had you know i think three four years ago so it's definitely quirky and it's got its ups and downs but overall it's been a great phone i've enjoyed having it i hope to continue enjoying to have it soon the apple fix these things soon so here's hoping anyway guys feel free to ask questions and whatever you guys have and thank you for subscribing and thank you for watching actually last thing i want to talk about was the price drop that happened to think about a month ago on this everybody was wondering what i thought about it her people were asking at least it didn't really bother me it's with an apples right to drop the price of the phone also disappointed that they did but what you're gonna do it happens it's part of being an early adopter I guess so anyway guys thanks for watching and hope you found this somewhat useful thank you for subscribing everybody that did thank you for all new subscribers but who have just signed in and have a nice afternoon evening wherever you guys are and i will have two guys soon bye
