3G does not mean 3rd generation. Thats not right. It is the 3G network that the iPhone runs on. If 3G did mean 3rd gen then the iPhone before this one would be called the iPhone 2G & the one before it would be called just G, but it is not. This one is called the iPhone 3Gs & the phone before this one is called the iPhone 3G, explain that if 3G does mean 3rd generation.

Anonymous, 10 Jun 20093G means 3rd Generation! 3G refers to the speed of the data network. If it was for 3G then why was the first one called 2G??
Also, the process of unlocking the device will void your warranty but it is possible. I wouldn't ask apple about it though. Research on the internet.

I'm a mac loyalist but I'm absolutely disappointed in the 3G S. I'm switching to the Nokia N97... it gives better value, better features and and a fresh new look! The iPhone 3G S boasts of a compass, voice dial and a video recorder; and all these are same on the Nokia N97! Aside the super fast 3G camera on the iphone, theres nothing more to it! I'll trade that for all the other great features and sharing-compatibility features that make a PDA worth having!

Anonymous, 10 Jun 2009WOOOOW.... the new iphone has copy/paste,autofocus camera,v... moreA decade ago phones didn't have colour screens - and a 3.2mp camera cost £1000 so you're a little off the mark. But yes, it prob feels like a decade since the introduction of 3.2 mp cameras on phones - it was actually 5 years ago that the 1st 3 megapixel phone came to market (a Casio) came to market - That had 16mb of memory built in, so the iPhone 3g S has 2000 times that.

3G is the network speed, so this phone, unlike the 2G, can access the internet at speeds of 3G. Therefore making sense that the main appeal/difference between the origional and the 3G is that it has 3G. Personally i think the name does exactly what it says on the tin.

Anonymous, 09 Jun 2009hahaha this POS phone has 5 year old features, it's for 3rd... moreother phone's implementation of features is often crap - the iPhone only includes something if it can integrate it properly IMO.
Honestly, I challenge you to say 1 better phone at the moment. I mean, ok, it's ommission of flash support is annoying, but you can now do a global search (Which looks through all your apps) - like if you're trying to find the invite to an event but aren't sure of it's location global search can find it - the Pre also has this function, but it's no longer a USP.
The vid recording res > Pre. The screen is physically larger and although WebOS does look like it has the potential to be extraordinary, I believe it doesn't have anything on Safari with a 0.4" bigger screen.
There's a whole lot of phones trying to pack in features - Nokia N97 perhaps the best example - but all Nokia's previous efforts have been buggy. Symbian is way behind the iPhone's OS and Apple's support from 3rd party developers is unmatched.
What's a real dissapointment is the expected RRP of the 3G S in the UK - £450 for 16Gb PAYG is £100 too much IMO.

I agree,, it should be nice based on the price.. its so popular coz its an apple product.. but to be honest.. the features on it is so common.. launching it in the market with incomplete features and re launching it with the feature so possible and shouldve been added from the start is so ironic,,, you'll buy it for a high price knowing from the very first start that the features are compromised by its popularity... anyways.. if you can afford it.. why not... the hell with other's opinion.. but practically speakin.. hmmm.. thumbs down for me =]

Rafael Meurer, 10 Jun 2009Iphone 3GS processor:
ARMv7-A - Cortex-A8
Application... moreDon't forget the PowerVR SGX graphics processor which is also part of the SOC (system on a chip), Open GL 2.0 support, the gaming is going to get a whole lot better!
Comparing an N97 to this is like comparing a 486 with onboard graphics to a Pentium 4 with a Geforce 3 graphics card.

Anonymous, 09 Jun 2009What's the idea of calling a phone "3G", and not having a v... more3G stands for the 3rd generation tech. also known as UMTS or WCDMA. the main reason is to provide high speed internet connection. HSPA (high speed packet access) which reach in DL up to 14.4Mbps. a phone supports 7.2Mbps is ........ nice :)
