Advantages: it does everything,plus,everythin g

Disadvantages: .....zip......

i bought this safe in the knowledge that apple always deliver,having previously had 2 ipods and 2 notebooks,so had no hesitation in purchasing one.Safe to say i was not dissapointed,heres a step by step guide of my findings..

Looks and feel...
well as you can see its an incredible looking piece of kit.The front is a highly toughned piece of glass which can put up with keys and coins run across it quite easily,and theres plenty of youtube videos to back this up.The back is a a polished piece of alumminium which in my experience is very resistant to damage.The buttons are kept to a minimal which is great,makes it less confusing,theres simply an on/off button,volume control,a silent button and the home button.The iphone feels very comfortable in your hand and the rounded nature of it sits well in your palm,feels very durable and much tougher than it looks.

Ease of use......
Far easier than i expected.Everything you need to alter such as settings is just one touch away,sounds,visual,functions all just lie one touch away,which makes life so much simpler.Nothing about this iphone is difficult,id had my fair share of phones down the years and id say this has been the easiest to get to grips with.

Applications.....
The fact you can add countless appplications for free is certainly one of the pulling features of this phone.Ive personally got many applications,some useful and some just for fun.For example you download great innnteractive games such as bowling and golf,for free,and they play very much like wii games,where you have to move the phone to roll the ball or swing the club.I found this interactive feature really good and pretty entertaining.I also have some usefull applications.Things such as remote,which allows you to wirelessly control your laptop or computer.

Camera...
Now although its only a 2mega pixel camera i and many of my friends have said that its far better than that,or seems to be,its certainly better than the Samsung g600 which claims to have a 5mega pixel camera,the quality on the iphone over the samsung is staggering.The one or rather two downsides to the camera,is that is cant record video,nor has it got a flash,but other than that its great.

Phone/sms....
The phones is very easy to use,you basically press the numbers on screen and press call,texting however is very different and i found it took time to get use to.The keyboard when texting is laid out like a computer keyboard.."qwerty" if you will.Now having gone from a regular phone to this is strange i can tell you.I soon got use to it tho and now find that i can type messages far quicker,and the predictive tex feature is really useful for if you make a little error.The way texts are displayed is one of my favourite features, for those of you who use instant messaging its just like that,your chat history is displayed in a long window that you can scroll up and down at any point,so you can quickly see whos said what and when

Battery...
for what its powering the battery life is exceptional.My best stats to date with it are 2days 5hours of standby and 6hours of usage.I found this out from the handy battery usage function,so as you can see,not bad for something that does so much.

Internet....
What more can i say other than,exactly the same as a desktop pc or any other way of gettin on the net,its exactly the same,the only negative is that you cant view anything that is flash(things that animate)

ipod......
Same as the ipod touch,you can watch movies,watch tv listen to the radio,and even listen to music haha.This really is one of the key reasons i got the iphone,so i didnt have to carry with me both ipod and mobile phone,this is 2 in 1.16gb is plenty enough for your music collection and plenty of films to,and with the battery life being as good as it is,you can even make a few calls inbetween

The iphone really is everything you need in one,its your calender,your ipod,your movie player,your internet connection,your email reciever,your games console,your diary,your phone,your camera,your weather man....i could go on

to sum up,you need this in you life

Summary: you need this in your life
