Flex Posted November 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 do u get instant email notification on iphone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lieutenant Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 Tbh iPhone is better for using internet and 'fun' with loads and loads of apps. pretty easy to use interface. Depends if you like touch screen or not. Downside is i've known a few people who have cracked the screen and been charged something like £140 to repair it.I've got a blackberry and don't really ever put it down, if you know quite a few people with a BB then the BBM is good! Easy to use as well, surfing the net is ok. You can get a few apps here n there but nothing special. I feel sick everytime i see one of those iPhone apps ads.

But never the less. I've had all 3 and so far I'm sticking with the iPhone. Mind you I didn't get the phone with a contract however. As I just can't walk away from what I'm getting from T-Mobile. The phone itself has had issues though and I just got it changed the other day but the amount of appz, usability of it and internet browsing is the best available. I would like the battery to last just that little bit longer. As on certain days I'm charging it during the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bacardi_Up Posted November 27, 2009 Report Share Posted November 27, 2009 iPhone.Tried everything else but the iPhone is still the best all round device for me.BBM is very good. The iPhone alternatives namely Whatsapp and ping cannot compare because while everyone is on BBM not many are on the iPhone.... for me anyway.

Illusion Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Didn't the recent iPhone update mean that you could actually copy and paste, forward a text message and access the phone book whilst writing a text? Basic phone functionality IMO.I'm lookin to get an android phone. Free apps and much less locked down than the iPhone. And cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
