  Duration of ownership: 2 Months

  Strengths: Brilliant Screen, Super Sharp resolution. Excellent Graphics, both on standard features and on games. Everything just works perfectly with the user. So glad i got one

  Weaknesses:No Picture messaging, but you can e-mail them. Fingerprint Magnet. No video function. I could imagine with the iPhone's quick processor and excellent graphical interface a video function would make it a must for everyone.

  Overall Evaluation: I have already read the reviews of iphone at AlaTest (http://alatest.com/cellular-phones/apple-iphone-3g/reviews/po2-58976944,8/ ) and have to say that it is really awesome cell phone! Very cool that I'm not the owner of iphone (lol, I use Nokia N-Gage QD). So now I have the reason to buy iPhone! :)

  Strengths: It plays your favorite music (built-in iPod functionality), search anything online (using Google search), get directions (using Google maps), surf the internet (EDGE or Wi-Fi networking).

  Weaknesses:Two weaknesses; it freezes, once in a while & the battery doesn't last long, specially when you go online often.

  Overall Evaluation: Generally, iPhone is indeed a revolutionary mobile phone that allows one to make a call by simply tapping on it; to check a name or number in one's address book; & surf the web; etc. It automatically syncs all contacts from a PC, Mac, or a Web based address book. It also let one select & listen to voicemail messages in whatever order one wants. It can also play your favorite music (built-in iPod functionality), search anything online (using Google search), get directions (using Google maps), surf the internet (EDGE or Wi-Fi networking), where ever you are, & much more!

  Strengths:

  Weaknesses:

  Overall Evaluation: comment: Spent a trip in Far East, iphone was activated by itself. After surfing email and website, received a very surprising bill by AT&T - Data Roaming Detail charge, rate is $0.01 per Kilobyte. My bill reached over one thousand dollars for 3 weeks. If you will make a trip, call AT&T first if you plan to carry your iphone aboard.

  Duration of ownership: 2 Months

  Strengths: Ease of use, great interface, piece of art.

  Weaknesses:No multi-media messaging-just text!, can't view attachments, no flash, no auto-focus on camera, volume is so bad (ringers, in-coming calls), limited applications, price, service with AT&T-horrible service, too many dropped calls, no service areas. Battery life is okay but if your WIFI or EMAIL is on all the time, max is 1/2 day with full charge

  Overall Evaluation: Overall, the product itself is very innovative and has a great interface, its a work of art. Other than the "Cool" factor, this phone rates at 5 out of 10. My previous phone which I still use and carry (added an extra line), W810i by Sony Ericksson, is by far the best phone I've ever had. It kicks the the iphone's behind, hands down! For the amount you are going to pay for the iPhone, look at other Hi-end phones and you'll be much happier. The LOCKED iPhone is not recommended for techie users, hack it and enjoy all the other applications available! Open the platform Apple! This wa$ my first Apple purchase and not quite happy with it.

  Strengths: small easy to use

  Weaknesses:does not allow installation of necessary plug-ins for certain websites that have streaming video for example. can not install a Skype client to make voip calls bypassing GSM provider for long distance calls. Very expensive for what you are getting.

  Overall Evaluation: Lots of hype about this phone but it does not have enough kick to be worth $600 I'd wait for the next model.

  Strengths: Display is awesome. Visual Voicemail is great!

  Weaknesses:Battery life (only because you can actually use this phone and you will)

  Overall Evaluation: This is a fantastic phone. Keep in mind that its not a camera and not an iPod. It is a phone that works great as a phone and has some other features like music and camera. The visual voicemail, contacts, zoom in and out on the web all work effortlessly.I use this phone twice as much as any other phone. I've owned and I have had treos blackberry's mda's razors. I've had a cell phone since 1994. No phone compares to the iPhone

  Duration of ownership: 2 Weeks

  Strengths: Screen looks amazing, the internet works just as well as when I'm at home, Wi-Fi connectivity, 8GB storage, easily syncs with computer, very intuitive and easy to navigate, keyboard works better than any other kind I've tried, new interface for voicemail.

  Weaknesses:Big and clunky, poor phone quality, poor picture taking quality, runs on EDGE, no voice calling.

  Overall Evaluation: From the day I opened the iPhone up to this moment, I've never been unhappy about buying it. The phone quality is about equal to my past phone, which was free. Everything looks amazing on this screen, and every application is just so fun to play with. I love the youTube and map apps. I have been a Cingular/ATT customer for awhile, so it wasn't a problem signing up for a plan. In fact, they even let me replace my old phone on my family's share plan, even though it's not available for an upgrade for another 4 months. Probably not for business oriented clients, but for students, like me, this is a must have.

  Strengths: fantastic interface impressive display sleek design Device convergence seamlessly jumps on open wi-fi instead of EDGE when avail (even though EDGE is not bad)

  Weaknesses:Adapter requires for most headsets is HORRIBLE! Made by belkin. Need to carry and looks stupid! 8gb really tight otherwise great!

  Overall Evaluation: I was up and running with my new AT&T number, synced music, podcasts, videos, adress book and everthing functional in 15 mins. Big WOW factor, easy to use, steamlessly hops on any open wi-fi for to leaver higher speed is great, and AT&T better network than I expected. Worth the hype.
