The first iPhone was more a novelty than anything. The iPhone 3G was good, but a bit slow. The 3GS was the first really good iPhone. I got mine in late 2009, and it was a great device. I retired it when I got a 4S, and now I have a 5S. Looking forward to the 6S next year.
Just watched on my 3GS in 2017. I got it two days ago for $10 from a friend just for fun. I now love it though and it'll soon become my main phone. As old as is its pretty fast....sorry but i like this older iphone better, thanks steve jobs....rip brother....this phone is going to reach its 10th birthday
why did it take apple so long to add video to an iphone? when then the iphone first came out in 2007, most phones at that time had video recording capabilities. It's a let down because they explain how good and high tech it is, but it doesn't have a basic thing like video recording. Even worse when they first released the ipad 1, they didn't bother to put a camera in all together! I'm an iphone user by the way
still? wow man i loved iphone,but after ios7 it was like holding on the same shit that apple took on the toilet with ios6.but ios7 was a shit with more shit juice.so i flushed that shit and bought a clean beautiful fast htc one and galaxy s4.
because they can bring it out in the next model and give you incentive to upgrade. It's been the way they always do business. Vote with your wallet And not to mention the fact the first iphone was only 2g with a 2mp camera with a phone I bought way before it came out the Nokia N50 was already 3g with 5mp camera that was the standard at the time!
Really they could of upgraded the iphone 3g unnecessary upgrade, this was really a test to see how many people would buy the same phone with a compass, voice command and videocamera AND IT WORKED apple is genius "no punt intended"
@OscarBarton Alright, i'm sorry for my unfriendly response. I agree Apple probably could've used a better camera, but in my opinion the user friendly OS is much more important, compared to how much megapixels you can capture. Besides, its a phone, even with other phones with better camera, its still poor compared to real DSLRs.
I used my dads iPhone 3G as an iPod when I was 9. I then got a used iPhone 4 form an AT&T when I was 13 and I had an iPhone 6 and now I have an iPhone XS Max.
I was fucking surprized when he says iphone 3gs can record video it took them that long to make it happen. i was able to record video in my old nokia phone in 2005-2006.
@OscarBarton You should get educated before opening your mouth. Megapixels is only a part of the story. Other things like the used sensor and lens is much more important. Stop believing in the megapixel myth.

***** S mean incremental upgrades to an existing design. In the case of the 3GS, 4S and 5S it was improved internals compared to their predecessors.
What do you use now?
Holy shit this comment is from 2014???

I think an used iPhone 3GS in good condition is pretty good for $10. My friends dad had an $8 Android smartphone that was good for what it is.
4:19 When Phil says "HSDPA" he really nails it.
the hd is really good thank youu!
I had the 3g in 2009 - 3GS, 4, 5, 6s plus, XS Max, 11 Pro, 14 Pro Max, 15 Pro Max, and now iPhone 16 Pro Max.
I still think the 5 is the best
R.I.P STEVE JOBS
:'(
This was a very first iPhone that I had. Now I have the iPhone 4s. Can't wait to see the iPhone 6
Greetings from the future. iPhone 15 comes in two weeks.
@@atzimtzumGreetings from the further future. iPhone 16 just came out last month
His voice cracked like 10 times. That guy was freakin' nervous

lazertag720 IOS 7 was a major upgrade and has had a positive reaction. I have an iphone 5 and it's so fast and beautiful.

Apple are the masters of keynote marketing.
Now What do you think ?
@@kamyar9085 ha Well this takes me back 😂 Completely different era now.
I guess I’m not as invested in keynotes anymore so I couldn’t tell you.
Jesus you're back! Didn't expect that, lol, it's good to see you it's been a while 😃
Yeah everything has changed.
acutally i think 3GS is huge leap of hardware. 3 years later 3GS still run smooth.
@thanhpluv true. he introduced the iPhone 4 the year after.
I wonder what it would be like to have an iPhone 3GS running on iOS 12.
@jeremynobigdeal
what are you talking about?
because att didt support mms at the time and notice he said if your cairrer supports it
I received this phone today, but has not been activated by my provider, guess i'll have to wait till monday.
now there worth 99 cents
@AgeOfMobile
Exactly,it's a hit!
4... well now it is... RIP Steve!
The glory days of Apple
I agree at the time it was the best phone you could get but then Samsung brought out the S2 and have never looked back since at Apple products
lol his voice cracked @ 3:58
He did perfect!
actually 3GS changes everything,not the 4
Really they could of upgraded the iphone 3g unnecessary upgrade, this was really a test to see how many people would buy the same phone with a compass, voice command and videocamera AND IT WORKED apple is genius "no punt intended"
Oh how much have things changed with Android vs iOS battle...
lol
"but the best thing about this camera is, it also captures video"
"YEAAEEAHAEAHHAEHEAHHEAR!!!! (orgasm)"

@4:57

"iPhone 3G EEEEeeeeeSSSSsss
I like this announcer more than steve, more down to earth and more personable.
And now Steve is dead so thank you very much
yeah...
I like Phil Schiller, he's no Jobs, but I like him :)
2:09
4:58 voice crack*
This is total distortion. There are products & devices out there that do not do the "app" thing... and they are incredible!
I used my dads iPhone 3G as an iPod when I was 9. I then got a used iPhone 4 form an AT&T when I was 13 and I had an iPhone 6 and now I have an iPhone XS Max.
@thenewapple I agree

@Ikeagames you would be too with 90% of the world watching you.
30 frames/sec not 30 sec!!!
Steve was ill wasn't he, sherlock?
RIP...
It seemed Phil was rushing...Like he wanted to get it over with.. MayB he was a bit nervous I don't know.. but yeah Steve Jobs does it better....
Nice job sarahdabomb way to not sound like a spammer
The Galaxy does it
Phil presents better than Tim Cook...
Everyone presents better than Tim Cook. But Phil’s title should’ve been “Senior Vice President of shit talking” 😂
It was son, It was!
4:58 lol XD
and it did :)
He had a liver transplant or something
Remember when the s in iPhone meant something?
@InTeRdeLuXe wasnt he ill or sumfing?... yh - sumfing to do with his lungs. he like, took a year off

Poor Phil his voice still cracks like an 11 year old.
