Played with this in att- Ive never owned any Iphone, but I was thoroughly impressed with it- thing was lightning quick and I was sold on all the third-party love that the device is getting. Ive heard that the battery sucked on the old one, but that standby time was now double what it used to be on this. Doesnt matter neways, I charge my phone every day.
The 3GS is a 3G with a 3GS license which tells the OS 3.0 software to unlock the features. The hardware is all in the 3G already there. Video, voice dialling faster graphics and cpu are only underclocked but unlocked once OS 3.0 verifies you have bought a 3G S LICENSE.
That's an odd statement to make, considering it has almost everything my last Smartphone had, with the exception of video recording (on the 3g) and an office suite (like Pocket Office). So what basics are you referring to?
Actually it does much more then you would think. The compass synchs with google maps so that you get turn by turn directions and the map will turn the direction you are facing.
It is the same! however with the iphone you get online radio station or online music services as slacker and pandora. if you main concert is the ipod but the touch if you want to pay a high price for all package go for the iphone
we dont always have to buy the new one . if the old is still amazing, stick to it,,, the features are just similar. Im still getting this in a month! I dont care if its old! I love iPhones and Apple :D
Cool man, thats good to hear. I am going to Square One today after my 3-6 class to pick up the iphone 3Gs on the Bell network as well, CAN'T WAIT!!!. Hope you get yours soon.
thats why i'm so happy =D 22th of August it is mine. But I must say my HTC Diamond that I have now is perfect too! I only missed the nice headphones plug and the battery was quite sucking. But I would certainly recommend to other peeps ;-)
Are the owners of the Omnia HD happy with that? A friend of mine has the normal Omnia, and I have large hands but to reach the top left corner with my right hand isn't really relaxed. That is actually quite anoying.
and it works. That is why apple is so successful. Compare it to Mircrosoft. They release xbox 360 (just an example), then for the next year or two they spend trying to fix all the problems with it and release newer versions with it that only consist of fewer problems and more disk space. Woopty doo! Now apple releases a strong product, user friendly, and PURPOSELY leave things out for future versions to keep you coming back. Its a brilliant way to market. Its pretty hard to argue against that.
@FatalAsSins I'm glad to be of assistance! I wonder if Apple will go back to that design, because they have expressed their dissatisfaction with the antenna structure of the 4, and have inadvertently said they will change it. So I'm really looking forward to the iPhone 5, with all the features of the 4 except with a lovelier more Apple-esk look. But it may be aluminium which puts me off. I like the 3GS the best so far, and I wouldn't wait untill summer time to buy an iPhone (5?).
just got mine today its very fast compare to my 1st gen iphone..i didnt get the 3g because it was not a major update for me pretty much the same..but 1st gen to 3GS is a big update..3G to 3GS not really just depends if you a oh ah must have the latest..i love my 3GS
hello! I was wondering if the iphone 4G is being released in july! So please answer this question because i will probably get the iphone 3gs about 1 week.And it kinda sucks when you get a new iphone and three months later a newer version is released...
@Th3Ramb0 I assume so... Apple has released a new one roughly every year. It's the same with the macbook pro (and infact all of their products) - it was long overdue a hardware refresh, and waddya know? The upgraded the graphics card, processor, battery life and probably a few other things. So yeah.
I guess I like the cut of the 3GS's jib better than the 4. I think the design of the 4 is like a lot of other smartphones - like a brick, I like the curvy design on the back of the 3GS more than the 4. Retina Display? Not an esential. Face time? I can just do that on my macbook because you need wifi anyway. Apple is very good at convincing people they need features like this, they're impressive features, but the 3Gs is enough for me.
mp3s you can send via your computer (dont need to buy em) the bluetooth thing is that you have to jailbreak the iphone to use it normally. (apple and their policies)
Really? No features? We must be using different iPhones cause it seems to me the app store lets you add hundreds of features. Heck, straight out the box, it's got all the standard features of most smartphones. So what's it missing?
how is it that when apple adds a simple feature like video recording that everyone goes insane, but when other phones have it its just there? Dont understand.
also.. if i do have to pay somone a bill if i unlocked it... how wud i go about tht?.. i live in U.S. preferably want sprint,or verizon wireless... but where would i go to get sim cards or watever... and how wud i go about payin som1... if u have to lol ty
Video recorder for the iphone has been around since the firmware 1.1.4 i think, otherwise at the start of 2.x. Only that it's from the underground community so it was not official. I still use it though (search for Cycorder) =D
im getting a 3gs and i wanted to know if i should get the 16 or 32 gb, i dont have much music so i was thinking the 16gb but i dont know how much space games, apps, and videos take up. any suggestions ??

I mean its fine but dont put a high price tag on the phone.
No Wifi is Wifi only, it uses either your own wireless internet or an unsecure network in your general area. You will not be charged by Rogers/Telus/Bell for using Safari or anything internet related on Wifi.
Yeah and every year they add a very little but important improvement and they save other improvements for next years so that people will keep buying it.
I said i'm not saying don't buy it online i'm saying it's not coming out in dubai cuz it was released a little while ago so why would they do anything now.
Looks like an awesome phone, can't wait to buy it!
Isn’t that phone 15 years old?

You should have mentioned that the 3Gs finally has some of the basic features that were missing before. (cut, copy & paste for example)
Lol true
i ordered my iPhone 3GS yesterday! should be here soon :)
@@ewmoore09 how was it

The IPhone 3G has those features as well. There was a free OS upgrade for 3g.

@theepicshows you do know that the new one is coming out in june/july?

Can u get the iPhone 3Gs on 2-year contract for
T-Mobile???
do you like have to pay a certain amount of money for all those apps? or do you have to have a contract or is it all free?
im dumb i know..
13 years later
you can get the 3gs 16 gb for 199 and the 32b version for 299 from at7t (2 year contract) Not the full list of 600-700

What phone u got now
short and to the point nice review
Can you use it as a webcam?
how would they charge you for the internet? do they only charge when your not on wifi and you surf the web?
What do u mean? Is there some better recording software available?
When will it arrive in Tajikistan?
(Asking for a friend)
yeah of course, but I dont understand why they just dont put in a 5 mp from the beginning.. why be stuck with some 3 mp that cannot capture movement?
They didn't say anything about the new camera besides the video capture capabilities...
hello! I was wondering if the iphone 4G is being released in july!
So please answer this question because i will probably get the iphone
3gs about 1 week.And it kinda sucks when you get a new iphone and
three months later a newer version is released...
Dont think so. There is still time for 4g!
No Data Sharing via bluetooth or infa - red .....

So yeah.
I'm saving up for an iphone 3gs....i'm planning on having it before Christmas.
no Michell bay film? :(

how was it?
To get it for $49.99 do u have to have completed ur 2 year contract? Or is it just $50 no matter what.
I guess I like the cut of the 3GS's jib better than the 4.

Is the 3GS'S battery better then the 2g's?

the bluetooth thing is that you have to jailbreak the iphone to use it normally. (apple and their policies)
Really? No features? We must be using different iPhones cause it seems to me the app store lets you add hundreds of features. Heck, straight out the box, it's got all the standard features of most smartphones.
So what's it missing?
I just bought the 32Gb black. It's AWESOME
another iphone is this the third version already
iphone 3gs or n87 which 1 you would prefer

how is it that when apple adds a simple feature like video recording that everyone goes insane, but when other phones have it its just there? Dont understand.

This review is WAY better than the Phone arena one
Wow a lot of comments from around 10 years ago !

Im getting one

Can't wait to get it!

Hey!
I got my iphone 3gs today and i downloaded winterboard from cydia
after that it tells me to reboot my iphone so i clicked to reboot it!
then there is an image with a usb cable and a itunes icon
it shows me to connect my iphone to the itunes!
please help me!!
What if the battery dies?..
Changing the battery perhaps, multitasking, most of the time we have to jailbreak our iPhones so that we can customize it to our liking, video recording and a decent camera.. until 3gs came.. come on! the Samsung Omnia is like the iPhone3g back then.. but it have a hella lot of features than 3gs. I mean its fine but dont put a high price tag on the phone.
yeah but thats 199, plus you gotta pay for contract.
No Wifi is Wifi only, it uses either your own wireless internet or an unsecure network in your general area. You will not be charged by Rogers/Telus/Bell for using Safari or anything internet related on Wifi.
good review
I want to get this phone, but it's like £440 in the UK. That would be equivalent to $714 !
Does anyone know if you can use it as a webcam?
Does people know the name of the song in background?
can i get a white iphone and a black case?
Watching this on my iPhone 3G
@Th3Ramb0 Yes they are probably. although noone is 100% sure.
guys you can get 3gs if you really want to but imo just stick with the old one if you already have it
2020 anyone?😂
2022 here
The phone looks sweet. I charge my phone daily and my contract ends in a week. Its perfect.
Agreed
Yeah and every year they add a very little but important improvement and they save other improvements for next years so that people will keep buying it.
shurely they could have implemented
720p video recording
@TheDrin007 Plus the minimum 40$/ month payment...
I said i'm not saying don't buy it online i'm saying it's not coming out in dubai cuz it was released a little while ago so why would they do anything now.
Michael Bay? Try Peter Jackson! LOTR's special effects were superb!
