After years of drooling and jealous of , i finally get my hands on an iPhone, sadly i was left behind by 1 generation. But luckily, both new and old are 80% the same i believe. As the demand for 3g increases here, the older model are becoming more extinct. Makes it even rarer now, which is also cool. Unfortunately, to my discovery lots are still using the 2g models. But fuck it, i care bout myself more for now, as i now own and iPhone, craving it for almost 2 years.
Current update on me apple products, not much but, just to keep myself updated.
Late 06 Macbook 2.0ghz ( Black)
iPod Video 5.5G
iPod touch 1G (sold)
24" iMac 2.8ghz
iPod touch 2G (sold)
iPhone 2G
Overall, this is a secondhand iPhone which was told to be 6 months old, few things i notice was i have problems entering numbers at the dial pad, as i hit 1 its add up other diff numbers like 198, i panic as it was right after i bought it. Later on i notice it was my palm that hit the lower part of the touch screen silly me. After unlocking and jailbreaking it to fw 2.2, things are better as i did a lil tweaking , to be compatible with the m'sia caller ID stuff. Getting to know it a lil better day by day and was enjoying it.
Little i notice, it wifi kind of suck compare with the iPod touch 2g, but can't complain more as it was a public wifi, but it still suck if compared. No software issues, but notice it lag as more stuff was add for example music, video, most notably apps and games. It takes a while to login to it camera, settings, and some other apps. It bothers a little, but will try to clean up the phone when i have the time. One more thing that bother me was the case itself noticing back aluminum top and side was popping out, not a lot, by few mm but it still bothers a bit. Overall i'll rate my iPhone a 7.5/10.
Few more things i would like to add, i didnt want to get a case, cause it was bulky and it spoil the phones look, it look too good without case. So without a case or protector, no doubt there will be scratches luckily the only chrome part was the bezel covering the side, but with only 10% of chrome compare to ipod which has a fully back chrome, i already had scratches on it, sadly it makes the iphone ugly when you're in a specific lighting spot. But i'm getting myself a pouch, to be specific moshi ipouch, will get that in few days time by post. Will review on that when i have the time. At least a pouch rather then a case, i can still keep the iphone's real appearance. But no shock protection, i'm going to be extra careful with the phone. i hope !
