iphone pros and cons list. The iPhone is an amazing phone, well worth the purchase.about iphone pros and cons, I have some experience. I have been using the iPhone since Oct.10th, and just can’t get enough of it. I recall saying that if the iPhone was half as good as the ads smart phone, it would be incredible smart phone. I am happy to report that the iPhone is as good, if not better than what was shown in ads. Almost every day, I find something new I can do with it, or a new feature. While there are some shortcomings (no device would ever be perfect), the iPhone is truly an amazing device and I think that just about anyone would love it.

iphone pros and cons list:

IPhone Pros:

- Compact

- Revolutionary and easy touch-screen interface.

- Easy-to-use.

- Quick access to every feature.

- Beautiful screen, easy to read even in direct sunlight.

- Cool and intuitive graphical user interface (GUI).

- iPod, Video iPod, Web browsing, e-mail, and phone all in one!

- Easy e-mail access from multiple accounts (you can get e-mails from Yahoo!, GMail, and many other accounts).

- Allows viewing of various attachments (e.g. PDF)

- Google Maps and driving directions make finding places and adding to your contact list a snap.

- Great widely used applications (Stocks, Weather, Maps, YouTube, iPod, etc.)

- Built-in WiFi (Zoomzoomzoom! Fast, fast, fast!)

- Features can be updated via a simple sync.

- Feels solid, metal-like.

Iphone Cons:

- 4 GB or 8 GB may be too small storage capacity for those people who want to carry all of their music, and some videos with them (although psychologically either capacity sounds too low, in reality, even the 4 GB version would be more than enough for those folks wanting only a segment of their song listings — over 850 songs if you max out the 4 GB — or put a couple of full version movies and about 120 or so songs, or any number of combination may be just enough for many, if not most, users).

- No physical keyboard (the keyboard is accessed on the screen and would take a few days to get adjusted to).

- Can’t attach files in e-mail (although you can forward attachment you receive on the iPhone via e-mail).

- Can’t save images that were sent via e-mail.

- Can’t open certain attachements (e.g. MS Office, etc.).

- Can’t change position of icons and info (stocks, weather) (this will most likely be changed via software update from Apple).

- Can’t change ring profiles on the fly (this will most likely be changed via software update from Apple).

- No drag-and-drop capability.

- Can’t download pics to use as wallpaper unless its from the camera.

- Email doesn’t switch layout from horizontal to vertical like the Safari Web browser does (this will most likely be changed via software update from Apple).

- No back button, have to always press the Home button for the main menu.

- Can’t download additional ringtones (this will most likely be changed via software update from Apple).

- Third-party apps can only be accessed via the Safari Web browser (this can also be a good thing as it protects the phone from issues relating to installing applications on a device).

- No SD card expansion slot.

- You have to sync to get music/videos/podcasts.

- Uses the slower EDGE network instead of 3G network (this can also be a plus as 3G would suck battery life).

- Camera does not take videos; no flash.

- Screen smudges easily (I highly recommend getting a screen protector).

- No Adobe’s Flash support (this will most likely be changed via software update from Apple).

- Battery is not user replaceable, and would cost $85 to send to Apple for replacement.

- Can’t use bluetooth stereo headphones (this will most likely be changed via software update from Apple).
