The Iphone is one of the most well known smartphones across the globe. What do you like about it? What Do you hate about it? Do you think it's worth buying if you compare it to other smartphones like Blackberry and Android?

Simple pros and cons. FIrst, the pros: It's the iPhone. Need I say more? It's touch screen and it has a wonderful interface. Applications just keep coming and coming. Lots of games, photo apps, ebooks, etc. And well, it's the iPhone. It holds in its name a sense of leadership among all smartphones. No matter how enticing and sometimes even better the other smartphones are, the iPhone has a certain charisma that makes you choose it. Now for the cons: Well, again, its touchscreen feature for typing messages makes it hard because of rather small icons. I know that QWERTY keypads are also small but I think pressing something solid and something you can actually feel makes you less prone to error. Next is the bluetooth feature. It is a definite improvement but it works only with other iphones, ipod touch and mac computers. it doesn't work with majority of other phones. And I think the most annoying thing about it is its limitations in terms of applications and system. You have to jailbreak it and lose its warranty in order to have the cheaper offers of applications and those that are ideal for a smartphone that Apple didn't include. So there. I have been an iPhone user since day 1. Despite its many flaws, I still love it.

It's touch screen. I just don't like touch screen generally.

i think iphone is a nromal phone so in my opinion it has nothing of really especial..if we can compare to other models we can't say precisely where iphone is really good and so in amny cases it cna be considered only a market trend..cosnidering this i think iphone in reality enable a really good multitouch experience but considering last smartphones even other brand phones has it but they cost much few than iphone as well!!The bad is the price,plans added to the iphone and the close policies natural on apple for all their products.

I really don't know all that much about an iphone, since I have never owned one, but I do have the ipod touch which is just like the iphone, but without the call feature. It does have lots of apps that can be installed on it from the apps store. Now, I have an android phone that works pretty much the same way, as I can install lots of apps and games from the market. Even though I have never had the iphone, I would still choose an android pho9ne, as I can do a lot with it, even though it doesn't have full flash as of yet, it is still a great phone. The iphone doesn't have flash either, so they are both equal when it comes to that. I know that a lot of people like the iphone, and suppose I really don't blame them as it probably is a nice phone. Take care, and have a very good day.

Iphone is not the smart phone. And it is quite better then smart phones as per me. I am big fan of iphone and i really enjoy games in it. Its touch screen is very sensitive in compare of other touch screen mobiles which makes it more better. So for me yes it is quite worthy to buy.
