Balancing iPhone Reviews

Balancing iPhone reviews isn't exactly an easy task. Here is an iPhone review hoping to achive such an undertaking. Read on and see just what is the whole deal with iPhone reviews.

iPhone reviews are basically conflicted, with some glorifying the iPhone as others simply lambast it. What you are about to read isn't exactly an iPhone review, rather an article talking about what's inside the iPhone, as well as the downsides which caused such bad iPhone reviews.

As iPhone Reviews go, let us start by getting to know the iPhone.

The iPhone is basically a 2.75G quad-band GSM mobile phone, with popular communication features like text messaging, internet web browsing capabilities, and email reading and sending functions. As an internet device, it has Wi-Fi connectivity capabilities. It has a 4 gigabyte, or 8 gigabyte, file storage capacity, which determines the iPhone model type. The iPhone's storage capacity makes it ideal as a multimedia mobile phone, capable of playing audio files, as well as video files. Complementing its multimedia functions is an integrated 2.0 megapixel camera, great for taking still images.

The iPhone's touch screen feature has iPhone reviews stark raving mad about it, as it is one of the iPhone's most impressive asset. Calibrated to function on the density of skin, the iPhone's touch screen doesn't need a stylus to successfully operate. It utilizes a virtual keypad as its primary "mobile phone" input system, and comes with an impressive lock and unlock function.

As a portable multimedia item, as well as phone, the iPhone is powered by an optimized version of the ever popular Mac OS X operating system, which takes up about 700 megabytes of file storage space. Its operating system is compatible with Apple software, designed to successfully operate on a "regular" Mac OS X desktop or laptop.

Its battery performance is also quite impressive, boasting up to 250 hours of standby time, 6 hours of internet web browsing, 7 hours of video file playing, 24 hours of audio file playing, and 8 hours of talktime.

As a mobile phone, it is impressive. As an iPod alternative, it actually outperforms the iPod, in terms of its user interface, which is larger and contains more details, making the act of selecting and making playlists easy.

But there are certain things which the iPhone cannot do. One is it cannot record video clips. Another is that it doesn't support mp3 files are ringtones. It also has limited Flash support, cramping one's internet time. It doesn't support MMS, no stereo Bluetooth audio streaming, as well as the hassle of having an internal battery. It can only successfully operate with an iTunes installed computer, which basically makes it an ironic smart phone.

iPhone reviews either lambast it, or praise it. This review simply aims to tell you what iPhone reviews have to say about it: it is a walking contradiction, bound to have enhancements in its next version release.
