Pros and Cons of Iphone – Do You Think You Know Them?

Roberto Sedycias asked:
Apple introduced iPhone to the world market in 2007 and its 3G version in 2008. iPhone is a revolution in the cell phone industry. The sophistication and the general technological advances that the iPhone affords are second to none. The iPhone has won rave reviews by one and all in the smart phone sector.
At the same time, it will be wise to delve a bit deeper and take a reality check. The flaws of the iPhone should not be ignored.
Pros:
Storage space – The iPhone boasts of a huge 8 GB storage capacity. In fact, a 16 GB version is in the tube.
Design – The iPhone dimensions measure 115.5mm x 61mm x 11.6mm and it weighs a paltry 135 Gms. This makes it a sleek looking gadget. The iPhone has a liquid crystal display and a HVGA touchscreen. It is easy to interact with the iPhone using our bare fingers on a virtual keyboard.
Internet connection – Email, web browsing and Wi-Fi or GSM/EDGE connectivity are the very necessary services rendered by an internet connection in the iPhone. Safari is the web browser provided on the iPhone. Exclusive sites for the iPhone have been created o attract the user.
Multimedia – An extremely sophisticated music library is incorporated inside the iPhone. Endless films and shows can be enjoyed on the iPhone. A link is provided to iTunes Store which makes download of latest songs very easy. YouTube videos can be watched on the iPhone.
Camera – The camera function is out of this world. The quality of pictures is just astounding. The user can upload, view and e-mail photographs of choice.
Ring tones – The user has the independence to create and customize a ring tone of choice. He also has the option to download any ring tone from the iTunes store
Cons:
Email – The user has to open the e-mail program every time he wants to check the mail. An automatic notification is not available on the iPhone. This inhibits the efficiency of accessing e-mails.
Bugs – Being technologically complex makes it accessible to many bugs and errors. The touchscreen sometimes does not respond and there are system crashes. Hackers have found a way to unlock and access information in an iPhone.
Missing basic utilities – There is no cut and paste option in the iPhone. Provision for delivery reports and MMS are also missing. These are the basic utilities in a cell phone which have not been provided for in the iPhone.
Overpriced – The main disadvantage of the iPhone is its exorbitant price. The iPhone is priced at around $500 – $600 which does not make it an easy buy for the average customer.
Conclusion:
The final verdict is a bit difficult to deliver. The option to purchase the iPhone rests entirely on the needs of the user. The excellent, big and bright display and gorgeous photos and videos are a big draw for the iPhone. Automatic spell checking and correction and a dynamic dictionary make text input an easy job.
The Visual Voicemail feature enables the user to just tap and play back any message displayed. At the same time, it is difficult to get used to the intricacies of a virtual keyboard, and use fingers dexterously for the purpose of navigation. AT&T`s telephone network is not very healthy. Browsing is difficult and very costly.
Despite all these drawbacks, Apple sold 270,000 iPhones in the first 30 hours after its launch. Right now, Apple has released iPhone 3G in twenty-two countries and is expected to launch its product in many more countries as well.

Mobile Media And Iphone Ringtones

The summer of 2007 saw the introduction of the new generation of mobile multimedia interactive cell phones with the release of Apple’s iPhone. Crammed into a package only 4.5″ inches and weighing less than 5 ounces, the Apple iPhone offers users so many features the company offers video tutorials to help customers learn all the things it can do for them.
Contained just within the phone functions are such pro-business features as call conferencing and merging, hold feature, caller ID and the ability to integrate with other cell networks. The iPhone offers voice mail listings without having to access the actual Voicemail and one can pick and choose between calls rather than have to move through them sequentially.
Due to the popularity of ringtones, it was only a few months before Apple upgraded to ringtone functions. By partnering in this feature with iTunes, users can custom design their own ringtones from purchased songs through the iTunes network or the Apple GarageBand software. These ringtones can then be used not only to alert one to an incoming call but can be associated with specific alarm and notification features as well.
Text messaging has been made easier with the implementation of a virtual keyboard on the touch screen. For increased accuracy the texting program includes such aids as predictive word capabilities coupled with automatic spell check and correction and a dictionary that allows you to add words as needed to help it understand topic related jargon, names and special purpose words and phrases. The virtual keyboard has been made a bit larger than previous attempts at this virtual technology and, with two-way orientation, is at its best in landscape position.
As well as superb telephonic utilization, the Apple iPhone has the capability to access e-mail clients through both IMAP and POP3 servers. Both Yahoo and Gmail offer a program for access from the iPhone and by mid 2008 are planning to upgrade to sync with both Apple’s mail application but with Microsoft ActiveSync to connect with Microsoft Outlook and Entourage. The e-mail capabilities include HTML acceptance for graphical e-mail that can include digital photographs and graphics and can embed pictures in outgoing mail as well. Portable Document Files (PDF) as well as Word and Excel documents can be attached and viewed on the iPhone screen.
With a picture being sometimes more informative than any amount of verbal description, the iPhone does have a two megapixel digital camera onboard and the output can be copied directly to an e-mail. The iPhone does not, however, offer video camera functions.
The Apple iPhone was originally released with the Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) card locked into the AT&T network exclusively. However it did not take long for hackers to find a way to unlock the card for use on other networks and now nearly a fourth of the iPhones sold in the United States are not registered with the AT&T network. While originally designed to block the multimedia and web access functions without an authorized subscription; this too has fallen to the hacker’s craft and various software programs and modification cracks have emerged to free the access to these features outside the AT&T network.
These features make the Apple iPhone a powerful business asset even without even beginning to discuss the many other multimedia and web accessibility features that have made the iPhone worthy of Time magazine’s Invention of the Year award.
