Apple iPhone Review

16 GB     See other variants reviews Score: 49.1 / 100

Apple iPhone is a mid-end cellphone launched in January 2007, counting with a CPU running at 412 MHz, a medium 3.5-inches screen and a 2 megapixels back-facing camera.

Apple sells this device with a powerful 412 megahertz CPU and just 128 MB RAM. Helping with graphic intensive games and apps, the Apple iPhone also has an ARM Mali-400 MP1 GPU ticking at 320 megahertz. This phone comes with a good 16 GB internal memory and even though it doesn't include a slot for an external memory card, it is enough to store hundreds of games and applications, although it may not be enough if you are planning to install some of the heaviest games currently available.

Apple didn't seem to put much effort to reduce weight in this 4.8 oz phone. This device's thickness , 0.46 inches, is a little bit far from today's standards, but it still feels quite fine in the user's hand.

The iPhone has only a 2 MP back camera.

This phone includes a good 3.5-inches screen with a 480 x 320 resolution, making everything look quite colorful and brightful. This screen uses LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.

This phone packs a 1400 mAh medium capacity Li-Ion non-removable battery that can keep it running for some hours, although you will need to charge it after some moderate to heavy usage. Apple informs a talk time of 8 hs and a stand by time of 250 hs for this device. An important issue to evaluate is that the iPhone's battery is non-replaceable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to live shorter, making it necessary to replace the whole phone or hopefully take the cellphone to an expert who can dismantle it and change the battery.

This cellphone features WiFi connection (but it can't share it with other devices acting as a mobile hotspot) and 3G connectivity, supported by EDGE technologies. This device works with a SIM card for GSM networks.

The iPhone also comes with Bluetooth (2.0, EDR), and a couple sensors likeLight Sensor, Proximity Sensor and Accelerometer.

This cellphone is really overvalued considering it is sold for $ 240, while many similar phones cost much less than that.
