Apple IPhone 3GS Mobile Phone


The iPhone is the one model of mobile phone that has essentially took the world by storm. As soon as it was launched, it flew off the shelves because everyone wanted one and the hype about the new and improved Apple iPhone 3GS has seemed to reach new and unprecedented levels. It is the handset that everyone, especially the technology aficionados out there, wants. Whether it lives up to the hype or not is a different matter, and the rest of this review will be looking into just that for you.


The Apple iPhone 3GS is just as attractive as the previous model for one main reason - it looks exactly like it. It has the iconic appearance and feel in the hand that the other models do and is incredibly attractive as a result. There is one main difference though in that there is an oleophobic surface to ensure that it is less susceptible to attracting fingerprints.




Given the fact that it is a touch screen, any feature that can help has two thumbs up and this definitely does. However, to get an idea as to why the Apple iPhone 3GS is different from its predecessors it is necessary to look at the features within the handset.

Hi-Tech Performance

The Apple iPhone 3GS is a good basic phone that can be used as a main phone for everyday use. However, it is so much more than just a phone. All of the amazing features are easy to find on the logical and well ordered menus. One of the first things that any user should take a look at is the web browser, which is easily one of the best on a mobile phone at the moment. It is easy to use and is of a high quality on the screen. As such, browsing is easy. This is further enhanced by the browsing speed, which is amazing when compared to other similar handsets on the market.

The Apple iPhone 3GS goes above and beyond its predecessor in other feature areas. For example the camera is excellent. There were complaints about the former iPhones because of the low quality pictures they gave but the new hardware has solved this problem. The video recorder is also of a high quality and of course the sound quality is excellent. However, the one major lovely touch that needs highlighting is that the apps load incredibly quickly so you can access anything you need in the blink of an eye.

Negative Feedback

There are a few niggles associated with the Apple iPhone 3GS. One of which is the volume, which can be a little loud if you are in public places. There are modes that can relax the volume a little though so you should be able to prevent this soon enough. Another niggle is the fact that data speed connection does drop in line with your battery and this can get a little frustrating to say the least. Finally, the security level of the handset is fine for personal use but may not be good enough for business use or checking bank balances and so on. As such, it may not be suitable for heavy business use.

In short, the Apple iPhone 3GS does have one or two niggles but is an improvement on the previous iPhone handsets because Apple have learned from their mistakes. The phone is highly functional, highly fashionable and a must have for all technologically minded individuals. It is also simple enough for those not so experienced to use. Try it out. It is worth every penny.

Sleek and has a lot of hype, the iPhone 3GS it is no doubt a best seller. Being a best seller, you can find a lot of free line rental cashback deals online and you can also compare the best cheap iPhone 3GS contract offer to get the best discounts.

Dell confirms Android smartphone launch



After what seems like decades of speculation, Dell has finally confirmed that the company has a mobile phone ready for launch. The Dell Mini 3i Android-based smartphone will be hitting the shelves on China Mobile later this month while Brazil's Claro network will have it by the end of the year.

Both networks represent a serious numbers game with 42 million users across the Americas on Claro and China Mobile being the largest in the world, and together they provide a vast platform for the Texas computer manufacturer to enter the mobile market.

Details on the handset itself seem to be as speculated with a 3.5-inch capacitive touchscreen on a 360 x 640 pixel display. No word as to when or where else in the world it might arrived next but implications in the Dell press release are that the 3i will be part of a larger Dell Mini 3 smartphone series.

Blackberry app to world


RIM is certainly on the offensive this year and its also taking the Indian market seriously. Many new handsets in GSM, CDMA and now another service is being launched. We first heard about Blackberry App world during the launch of the 8520 curve back in August and now App World is finally available to Blackberry users in India

App world is RIM’s answer to the App Store game. Its the official App Store for BB smartphones to download free apps to their handset and there are some india centric apps too ( we’ll try getting more details of that soon)

India-specific applications at launch include Hungama MyPlay, CNBC TV18 Moneycontrol, Mundu Radio and Arrowmatics.

Users can get Blackberry AppWorld on their BB but hitting mobile.blackberry.com or www.blackberry.com/appworld from the phone browser.

Users will be automatically presented with apps compatible with their BB. Good news is that the app store will work over Wi-Fi and Cellular networks.

“The BlackBerry platform provides a truly unparalleled mobile experience for millions of people and we are thrilled to enhance that experience with BlackBerry App World,” said Frenny Bawa, Vice President, India, Research In Motion. “Consumers in India can now easily discover and download a wide variety of applications, including a range of ‘made for India’ apps, directly from their BlackBerry smartphone.”

Requirements to run App World

  • BlackBerry smartphone that includes a trackball, touch-sensitive trackpad or touch-screen
  • BlackBerry OS version 4.2 or higher.
  • Users require an active BlackBerry data service plan with Internet access to access BlackBerry App World. Data charges may apply for customers that have a limited data plan.
