User Review for Apple iPhone

« See all reviews

Very revolutionary product by Apple

May 30, 2008

Rating: 8 out of 10 (Excellent)
Pros: Addicting
Cons: Poor battery, poor call sound and what's with the !*#$^%$ earphone jack?!?
Opinion:
I love everything about my iPhone, which I had jailbroken (now using 1.1.4). It's so revolutionary because it merges PDA functionality with extreme usability and style. The multitouch screen is addicting, and the fact that you can download apps off the web is so, so refreshing (FOSS fans will love this).

My only gripes:
1) Just over one day battery life. Yes, using WIFI and the iPod a lot does this, but why else would you get an iPhone?
2) Poor voice call quality. Sounds like hollow tubing, which will make you miss your Nokia.
... and the clincher ...
3) Recessed earphone jack. Why do I need to go look for a special and costly adaptor to use my expensive earphones?!?
