Pros:
Great for TEENAGERS!!!
Cons:
Bad for Smartphone VeteransFull user opinion
Apple has beat out Bose Speaker systems for hyping a bad, flawed, and subpar product. The iPhone is nothing but a toy for affluent teenagers or smartphone newbies that have never had their hands on a high-end smartphone like the 8525 and others. None of the technology on the iPhone is new. The only cool thing is the stock UI, which is only "cool" to newbies who fear drop-down menus (Actually you can have Windows Mobile produce a few big buttons on the home screen also, if simplicity is your goal)No removeable battery? (Can't switch to a new battery when you are out and about?)Have to pay Apple to change out battery? (at whatever incredibly high rate they decide on (like the Ipod?)No expandable memory? (4-8 gb is a joke, any veteran will know this and fill this up in the first day)No 3G? (Slower than dialup - Yahoo home page takes 2 minutes...no joke...)$600 for 8GB? (haha....an 8525 beats the Ipod in every category and still sells for 1/2 the price....)No keyboard (with actual buttons for *gasp* input of data/text messaging/etc..?)Camera doesn't take "videos"? What???Can't send pictures? (MMS)Can't change carriers? (stuck with AT&T for 2 years, or more if noone else picks up the phone..)No editing of Office documents?No ability to sync to exchange server? (business users forget it, if you haven't already..)No voice calls through WiFi?No voice dialing? (hahaha.....)
