Apple iPhone 3GS - 16GB - black (AT&T) Review



The good:

The speed of the iPhone 3GS will amaze you if you are a virgin iPhone user. The OS of the iPhone 3GS is good to use-the operation is easy to control. Its excellent user interface without question brings to you enjoyment of using the phone .The perfect appearance looks luxurious indeed.

The bad:

There something I have to say about it, its battery seems to be unsatisfactory, that maybe relevant to its all kinds strong function. If several applications are running at the same time, system halted sometimes. It has no lens head camera that iPhone has always.

The bottom line:

The iPhone 3GS is a good choice for those who take speed of online seriously and who are well off. Though the new features give people much pleasantly surprised, its call quality and 3G reception still need to be improved.

Design - The iPhone 3GS looks truly like the previous model. It has the same shape and the same external controls. One another the iPhone 3GS is one-of-a-kind in quite a few ways. The iPhone 3GS display is supposed to be superior in fewer fingerprints and smudges. 3GS as the new model shares the same size as its predecessor, but it's subtly heavier, a imperceptible difference.


Features and performance - The iPhone 3GS has a new camera hardware compared with the processor that takes good photos, but far from great. Apple improved the camera's resolution to 3 mega pixels. They also added a new "Tap to Focus" feature. When you point the lens to the subject, a small box turns up on the center of the display. Tap to Focus also performs well. The iPhone still doesn't support a flash, though.


One of its new physical features is the use of an oleo phobic surface, which is supposed to make the surface less tend to fingerprints and easier to clean. Objectively it doesn't feel any better or worse than the iPhone 3G. It can be noting worthy that the iPhone 3GS can be identifiable by the reflective material used.


The speed of page loading can vary a lot depend on one's connection and on the site. But overall, the iPhone 3GS provides the best mobile web experience of competitors. Such version has a faster processor, so pages can load almost twice as fast when compared with the iPhone 3G.


Battery -The iPhone 3GS comes up short on battery life. It generally agreed that the iPhone 3GS's battery is not living up to an increase number of users' expectations. Usually the standby time just can be 1 day. Its extended battery life still needs improvement. Here's for hoping!
