One of the trademarks of the iPhone is its simplicity in design, and the Apple iPhone 3G 16GB White is no different. This is one mobile phone that feels as good as it looks. It fits comfortably in the hand, and it’s easy to tell when holding this phone that it is durable, with high quality construction.
Constructed in a slick, glossy design, the Apple 16GB White sports a large, 3.5-inch display that is bright and clear. The screen on the white iPhone 3G is easy on the eyes, so you will not have to squint to read text, like you do with some mobile phones.
This mobile phone also has an easy to use interface, and the keypad is fairly simple to use, though it is not as good as a full, physical QWERTY keyboard. Although the Apple iPhone 3G 16GB White has a lot of applications specifically aimed at the professional, without a QWERTY keyboard some may not be as comfortable with the iPhone.
One of the premier selling points of the new white iPhone, is its 3G capabilities. Although this is almost an essential for any mobile phone of today, it is actually a feature that’s very common in many handsets. It isn’t necessary to invest in an Apple iPhone 3G 16GB White if 3G is your only purpose, though there are many additional features that could make the new white iPhone 3G worth considering.
Along with 3G, you also get Wi-Fi, which works wonderfully. It’s easy to get a connection, and download speeds are fantastic. Despite this there are a few problems with the new iPhone. The first problem to come to mind is the fact that there is no multimedia messaging capabilities. So there will be no sending pictures, except for by email. Another problem is the camera, which is basic at best.
The Apple iPhone 3G 16GB White comes with the Safari web browser, which does work well. When using this web browser, pages load fast, and they are easy to see.
Another drawback of the white iPhone 3G is that although there are GPS abilities, there is no preinstalled software. You do get Google Maps preinstalled, but if you want another version of GPS software you will probably have to get it from a third party. Fortunately, the iPhone now supports some third party software.
There are definitely many features of the Apple iPhone 3G 16GB White that are fantastic, including web browsing, email, App Store, and GPS, but there are also a few problems that some may not want to overlook, like the basic camera and no multimedia messaging. This is probably a great smartphone for business use, and for the music lover, as it does provide a great iPod player. The problem is that this phone does come at a premium cost, when you consider the subscription price is higher.
