Apple 3G iphone Review

Apple 3G iphone Design

Though the iPhone 3G is thinner at the edges than its predecessor, the phone measures a hair thicker (0.48 inches versus 0.46 inches) in the gut. The other measurements are the same except that it weighs just the slightest bit less (4.7 ounces versus 4.8 ounces). Otherwise, the iPhone 3G shows few cosmetic changes from the front--same display size and resolution, and the single Home button sits just below the screen. We're very pleased to see that Apple has done away with the irritating recessed headphone jack, which now is flush so that you'll be able to use any 3.5mm headphones you like.
But turn over the iPhone 3G, and you'll see more significant changes. A black, plastic skin replaces the current silver-aluminum back. The swap may cut the cost, but we worry about its long-term durability. The 8GB model will come in black only, while Apple promises the 16GB version in black and white.


3G iPhone Multimedia

When we talk about Apple, audio should come first. Thanks for Apple team, they had built the earphone jack on the left top of iPhone. It means that everybody could enjoy music as easy yet comfortable as possible. People gave Steve Jobs a pretty crowd applause when he showed this. Me too! Besides its popular earphones, iPhone 3G will let their users to record something with its microphone too. This gadget support various audio formats such as AAC, Protected AAC, MP3, MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 1, 2, and 3), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV. A pretty complete line up.

Apple 3G iphone GPS

This is one feature that was on our original iPhone wish list. While the current iPhone location services find your position via nearby cell phone towers and satellites, the iPhone 3G uses Assisted GPS supplemented by satellites. It also offers live tracking so you can monitor your progress as you drive (or walk) along. We're excited to see this feature as well, as it fills in another gaping hole on the original handset. You'll also find photo geotagging, and third-party applications with turn-by-turn directions are in the works.

As you’d expect, the inclusion of GPS doesn’t mean any unsightly external aerial. It locked onto satellites quickly, taking between 30-45 seconds from ‘cold’ (when started up in an entirely new location).

A blue marker shows your position on the familiar Google Maps application, and it will do visual and text – but not spoken – directions to a location. It uses A-GPS, which means that it gets (A)ssistance from the network provider to maintain a good fix even in built-up areas. It dropped out in a couple of London’s alleyways, but quickly recovered once you got back to wider streets.

YouTube via 3G iPhone

Times for YouTube fans now. This iPhone 3G gives you a compatibility for various video formats such as .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file. Just like the previous iPhone version, this 3G one also support special viewing of YouTube.com. No wonder if this is a better experience if only we compare it to other mobile browser in other mobile phone. With HSDPA, streaming all videos in YouTube will be seamless enough. However, just remember that you will also pay the bill for all of the data you had downloaded to your wireless carrier.

Third-party apps

Speaking of which, the iPhone 3G will indeed support the collection of apps available through the iPhone SDK--no surprise here. Apple promises to open an apps store in early July (Apple didn't release an exact date); we're guessing by July 11. Gaming apps should feature prominently; many will integrate with the phone's accelerometer.

Enterprise support

Worker bees will be pleased to know that the iPhone 3G will offer support for Microsoft Exchange Server. That will bring push e-mail, contacts and calendar, remote wipe, global contacts access, and auto-discovery. That's another welcome change as it puts the iPhone in the hands of a whole new class of corporate users who now will be able to get their work e-mail on the iPhone.

With iPhone SDK, enterprises are able to develop and deploy their app as secure as possible. However, unlike Android, Apple keep encouraging every enterprise or individual to put their apps on the dashboard of App Store first. So that this app could live side by side with other app too. Good plan though.

For manager or anybody who run a life like those one, iPhone gives you features that simplify the way you act around stocks and weather information. And also a handy note to keep you in touch with the most urgent stuff from your daily life

Apple 3G iPhone Safari Web Browser

Safari oh Safari. One of the fastest browser I’ve ever use has get it special portion on this iPhone version. Apple’s team promise you a view of web page the way it is designed to be. And more! Safari has an ability to sync your bookmark from your PC or Mac. We love it to be. Unlike its desktop version that push you to click the [ctrl] + [+] button, this one only need your tap or pinch to zoom the web page. But not just that, Safari iPhone 3G version also let you to view web page in landscape or portrait mode by rotating the iPhone at 90 degrees

But there’s more good news. We raced it against a Nokia N-series mobile running on Vodafone’s HSDPA network, and the iPhone was first nearly every time. Whether this is down to the network, or Safari’s superior rendering, is unclear, but the benefit is: your webpages and downloads, faster.

There’s more. Wi-Fi reception seems to be improved over the previous iPhone. In one part of our office, the new iPhone showed full wireless signal; the old iPhone only one bar.

Music and video playback are excellent. You still need a Wi-Fi network to connect to the iTunes Store, so you can’t threaten the data usage policy by downloading videos.

Apple 3G iPhone Price

are two model with different prices. The Black iPhone 3G with 8 GB storage at $199 and The Black or White iPhone 3G with 16 GB storage at $299. On his speech, Steve said that both prices are the maximum price tag of iPhone 3G on 70 countries worldwide including Africa. From those 70 lucky countries, Japan and Hong Kong will be the first Asia region to meet and greet this wonderful handset on that July 11. While other countries like India, Singapore, Qatar, Jordan, and Philipphines will also find this iPhone 3G after that date. Apple haven’t made any announcement yet on this issue. I am sure that this is the field for mobile bloggers to become yet another rumor-mongers for iPhone 3G.


What's missing in Apple 3G iphone

We hoped for an even larger bundle of features in this round. Apple still leaves multimedia messaging out of the mix along with voice dialing and video recording. We still don't understand why Apple can't include these basic features, many found in even the cheapest and simplest cell phones. We were also hoping for a landscape keyboard, the capability to cut and paste, Flash support for the Safari Web browser, expanded memory, and additional Bluetooth profiles. Apple, you left us hanging in a big way. It's also disappointing to hear that the dock is now sold separately for $49, but we suppose that helped cut the price. No, you don't need the dock, but it's nice to have. Even the power adapter and the SIM card removal tool that now come in the box won't make up for its loss.



It's nice iphone having so many feature in it. Music also very good like ipod. If you are searching for latest phone then Apple iphone is best. Apple 3G iphone
is having fastest browsing, Music, design, memory (8GB, 16Gb), Email, GPS, business feature.
Over all it's BEST iphone.

One of the big selling points of the iPhone 3G is its ability to allow you to surf the Web via the built-in Safari browser.

You can access the Internet when you’re out and about via the 3G broadband network. When you’re within range of a Wi-Fi network, you can use that instead.

The built-in Safari browser is designed to show web pages as they are, ie they’re shrunk to fit the screen. You can turn the iPhone on its side to get a better view, and tap the screen twice to zoom up on sections of web page.

While of course you can’t expect to have the same web experience on a mobile phone as you would a desktop or notebook computer, overall, this approach works well.

My favourite feature is the Maps, which allows you to plot your current position on a Google Map using the phone’s built in GPS. You can also use it to find an address, and to plot the way from your present location to the place you want to go.
