Having had a good hour long play about on one of these today i think i can safely say they are the most over hyped and expensive phone i have ever seen!
Ok, it is an iPod too (Which i think is brilliant
) but that is about it.... Oh, it also has internet on it.
Things i liked:
Integrated new iPod
Touch screen and some functions
Internet access (Limited though)
Things i did not like:
The price tag: £265 + £35/£55 per month
The crappy camera
Crap speakers - Why are they shoved away at the bottom next to the charger connection :S
No proper bluetooth
Menu system
Not so responsive touch screen - Took up to 3 times to press buttons
Texting! It is a nightmare
The whole "Screen flip" thing - Not as good as it is cracked up to be
Temprimental connectivity
Now, i am not bashing Apple or its many "i" products but, this phone is very last generation. They introduce it into the market when many phones have 3G, 5MP cameras, full internet, proper bluetooth etc. The price tag is also a bit of a shocker! Although, they are known for their high prices.
I could see myself having one in the future, when they become cheap - Which, given time, they will.
Is there anyone else out there that just thinks it is another Apple "must have" gimmick?
