Apple iPhone review

The good: The Apple iPhone has a stunning display, a sleek design, and an innovative multitouch user interface. Its Safari browser makes for a superb Web surfing experience, and it offers easy-to-use apps. As an iPod, it shines.

The bad: The Apple iPhone has variable call quality and lacks some basic features found in many cell phones, including stereo Bluetooth support and 3G compatibility. Integrated memory is stingy for an iPod, and you have to sync the iPhone to manage music content.

The bottom line: Despite some important missing features, a slow data network, and call quality that doesn’t always deliver, the Apple iPhone sets a new benchmark for an integrated cell phone and MP3 player.”

This is what CNET.com has to say about the Apple iPhone on its article Apple iPhone - 4GB (AT&T). Apple iPhone is one of the most awaited gadget for 2007. It is really impressive on its design and multitouch user interface for easier navigation. Now cellphone manufacturers are pressured to release cellphones that could give users the feel of an MP3 player. Read more of CNET’s review on their website.

Is Flip Phone In?

As a start for this blog, I’m not talking about flip phones on general. No brands, no models. But I’m discussing this, and would freely accept your comments - violent or not, based on my experience with my first flip phone, the Motorola V3x. I’m not sure if I’m experiencing this as a phone bug or malfunction, or because of the design of the flip phone.

Just to clear out things, I’m pointing out flip phones as those folding models. Most flip phones have an outside mini display where when you automatically close the phone, the display would transfer to the mini display. This is where I say, the bug occurs. Sometimes, not closing the phone completely (folding the phone but not until it is completely closed) makes the phone hang. I don’t know if the phone is confused what display to use, resulting to a system hang. Just making this blog to know if other users experience the same problem as I’ve read in columns that this problem is experienced by other users, not specifically using the Motorola V3x.
