It wasn't too long ago when everyone wanted an iPhone without finding time to evaluate its worthiness as an all-purpose and powerful phone. So is the iPhone as great as it seems? We'd say yes, although it's not perfect.
If you don't have an iPhone yet, you will certainly want to know the drawbacks of owning one. For sure, there are some minor bugs, so let's take a look at some of them. A lot of people who use the iPhone a lot complain about low battery life.
No one wants to get that annoying "low battery" signal right in the middle of an important text message or phone call. Even with a full battery, text messaging sometimes doesn't work as well on some iPhones as on the cheap phone you trashed to get the hot new cell of the year.
In fact, Apple has gotten in legal wrangles related to the iPhone battery. It can be a huge inconvenience for users due to the fact that you cannot change the iPhone battery. If you wish to change the battery, then tough luck for you, kid - it's sealed tight inside the iPhone.
Changing phone batteries is common with most phones so iPhone owners felt like they weren't warned about this. However, having a recharging dock in multiple places (at home and work) is the perfect work-around for the iPhone battery issue.
There are two varieties of iPhone - those offering 6 GB and 8 GB capacity respectively. This is actually small compared to what you get in an iPod. Since the iPhone doesn't have a memory expansion option yet, the memory size will cramp the style of some users if you're used to a 20GB iPod.
If you go online, you'll see a variety of Apple-approved (and non-approved) sites for your downloading needs. Movies, TV shows, music, content, photos and games are among the download options. The problem is, the iPhone seems to balk at high download speeds and takes its time. Be aware of these things or learn them at the last minute - complete with the frustration that goes with waiting quite a while to download content.
It's common for consumers to jump from one cell phone service provider to the other. All it takes is one bad customer service experience for most customers to switch sides. The iPhone, however uses one service provider, that being AT&T.
It's hard finding a cell phone user who isn't even the least bit annoyed when the signal goes bad and service gets interrupted. It can be quite difficult to call another network when using an iPhone. Instead of spending all that cash to call out of network on your iPhone, you may need to kick it old-school and start hoarding quarters for the nearest pay phone.
With Internet connectivity as a major feature of the iPhone, some users complain that the search tools don't function effectively and the browser won't save passwords. Take heart iPhone fanatics - it's the first of many models to come and each problem gets addressed as it comes up with a solution for all.
