Apple iPhone

8G Apple iPhone

The Apple iPhone was the phone to buy last summer (2007). It was what everyone was talking about in the phone industry. The iPhone is sleek and agile, but can still hold 8G of music. There are two sizes, the 8G or the 4G.



The iPhone was a break threw in telephone technology. It combines all the daily things you need (or want), phone, iPod, map, internet, weather, stocks, camera, iTunes, and more. It is truly a phenomenal phone that, right now, can not be competed with. Other carriers have tried to make their own iPhone, like Verizon Wireless’s Voyager. But the Voyager is too late. The iPhone came out and swept America off its feet.

There are a couple complaints I have. For instance, you can not send picture texts, which is an inconvenience. Also, it does not support Adobe Flash Player, so I can not watch some of the videos on the internet, and even if it did, it wouldn’t be fast enough because it only has 2G internet. My final complaint is that you can not take videos with it, but that is not a big deal really for me.

The Apple iPhone supports 2G internet. They should have made it with 3G, but it still is fast. Also, you can connect to wireless internet when you can and that makes it go faster. The iPhone comes with a Google search engine bar, which is handy when you need to Google something.

The email on the phone is great. If you have Gmail, Yahoo mail, AOL, or Mac mail it is easy to set up. You type in the email address and password and it sets it up for you. If you have a different email, you have to know the SMTP and the host (example: mail.gmail.com).

For $20.00 a month plus phone bill, you can get 200 texts, unlimited email and unlimited internet.

The battery life on the iPhone is great. I only charge mine every 2 or 3 days unless I had been on an airplane and was listening to music for 2 hours+. If you are using the internet browser the battery life is shorter, but still long.

I would definitely recommend the iPhone to anyone. It is an amazing phone, great for business people, teenagers, and just about anyone. The retail price is $400.00 for the 8G plus tax.
