Apple’s iPhone:-The Much Hyped Gadget
Umm…If a person asks someone to rank products according to the “HYPE” created, then for sure Apple”s iPhone will top the charts…This device has even left Playstation3 much behind in terms of publicity but the question is “IS THE iPhone WORTH OF THIS MUCH HYPE???”Well before answering this question we will have to look at the Pro’s and Con’s of this device….Lets first look at the Pro’s of this gadget.
Pro’s :-
1.>This Phone consists of an enviable 3.5 inch Touchscreen offering astonishingly high resolution of480x320 which is undoubtedly quite high for a mobile device.
2.>The iPhone in it’s self consist of an iPod hence there is no necessity to carry a burden of one more device for your entertainment needs.
3.> Call clarity and Call reception is good.
4.>It also boast of a nice Graphic User Interface(GUI)which makes phone navigation amazingly easy.
5.>Video and Audio quality is very nice.
6.>It supports Microsoft Exchange Server.
7.>This iPhone Is also packed with the Apple’s coveted internet browser”SAFARI”which makes internet browsing a cakewalk.
8.>It even boasts of built in GPS Receiver,Quad Band support, Wi-Fi,Bluetooth 2.0,TV Out and others.
9.>The new additions which can hardly be found in other phones include Accelerometer and Proximity sensor.
10>.The weight of this heavyperformer is a mere 135 grams!!
Con’s :-
1.>There is no video recording in this device...Oh my God..It's unbelievable
2.>In India,this phone is presently available at very high price as compares to U.S.In India this phone is available at 30k above making it very undesirable for the Indians.
3.>At such sky-rocketing price this phone has an average camera of just 2 megapixels!!!and that to without any flash..it’s a shame and adding to the shame is the fact that there is no video recording…huhh
4.>The Battery of iPhone is not user replaceable!! Ya…You heard it right…the user of iPhone cannot replace battery when the battery dies out…i.e as like the normal phones of which you can change the batteries yourself and even keep spare batteries to be used in times of need…iPhone does’nt gives you this feature….a major setback indeed.
5>.The Bluetooth of iPhone is crippled…Following the league of Apple’s other gadgets (For example iPod) the user of iPhone cannot transfer contacts to other phone..same is the case with multimedia file sharing…It’s completely disgusting man….
6.>There is no voice dialing!!! I just want to ask the CEO of Apple that do he consider voice dialing as an extravagant feature??? but on the contrary voice dialing has become a means of convenience man…Wake up..Mr CEO……
7.>Hey..For Youngsters omission of this feature is a major setback..Apple has not given the luxury of assigning your favourite mp3 or other songs,tones in different format as your ringtone…..My God…How can they omit this feature..but it’s true and tunes provided only by the Apple company can be set as your ringtone…though new ringtones can be purchased at Apple’s site.
8.>There is any support for MMS!!!!Neither there is any support for sending multiple SMS'es.. It’s Unbelievable.
9.>There is no A2DP i.e there will no bluetooth audio streaming!!!!
10.>The screen looks very fragile and it does’nt looks that it can resist breaking down when dropped on some rough surface.
11.>The 3G reception is quite shaky.Even GPS facility is not upto the mark.
12.>The 3.5mm port does’nt works with many commercially available earphones i.e you have to remain stuck with the headphones provided by Apple or some other company.For example if headphones of CREATIVE or SENHEISER does’nt works with it then what??This will definitely sting those users who are always in a search of better quality of headphones for good music(Though it is being said iPhone 3G supports all earphones)
13.>The battery dies very quickly if used by some battery intensive works.
14.>You can sync this device with only one computer.
Apart from the above mentioned negative points there are definitely some other major con’s too such as no support for Copy -Paste sytem,you can’t use this device large memory as a mass storage device,no memory expansion,no support for flash files when browsing and others..
This was the comparative review of the iPhone..A person with normal intelligence can himself figure out whether to go for iPhone or not…But if you seek my advice then I would say…wait for some time..let the prices come down,let there be some other software updates removing the flaws and others but if you are not price conscious and want to make a style statement then I would love to say…Go Own It..Flaunt it……..It will definitely establish you as a style icon…
What’s your say??
