I've read all this and most ofnthe complaints about the new iPhone started within hours of it release. If keeping skin off of a millimeter thick line is all inhale to do to get great reception from the worlds best phone so be it. If dropping my phone 4 times on concrete breaks the glass(which would happen on any phone) then maybe I shouldn't drop it on the concrete.

I just came from a nexus one and it was made from metal but the screen had a problem cracking in peoples pocket and I'm pretty sure the rest of androids phones have the same problem. The battery lasted a whole 9 hours on a good day. The android market has 1% useful apps and 99% crap. I am pretty sure that android has a great future but right now they are very behind. Blackberry have great business solutions but need a modern phone.

All this wannabe phone scientist on YouTube are full of it especially when the entire conclusion was done in less than a day.

They're a blog, that doesn't mean that they are supposed to be unbiased. Also, they posted links to positive reviews but pretty much the only news about the iPhone 4 right now is about its various shortcomings.

+1

Your take is correct. They report news, events and the like. They are a blog. No more, no less.

If the OP seriously believes they can hurt Apple in the slightest, he is not familiar with the might of Steve Jobs.
 
Rubber-band to hold iP4 to your head.. Yeah, no credibility lost there. :rolleyes:
If not for being so senstive, one can see the humor in this picture.

Jobs already blew us off once, that was very revealing about who he is. That didn't work as the mainstream press got wind and jumped down his back.

If Apple doesn't do the right thing, it will take me less than 10 minutes to wipe mine and chuck it. Done.

Return it!
 
Underwhelmed by this Droid Thing

Agreed.

I just checked out two videos (review and user) on You Tube featuring the Droid, and I am beyond unimpressed. I didn't know that the user interface was so dated-looking.

It looks like Vegas' NY attraction trying to pass itself off as the authentic Times Square. I think it would be best for phone manufacturers to stop trying to create iPhone killers by trying to catch up to the iPhone, and instead be innovative and create a superior phone and OS that's maybe NOT like the iPhone's at all, but better.

How pathetic for long-time cell phone specialists to find themselves chasing a newbie in the business and finally somewhat catching up 3 years into the game. Just take a different path, already.

Before I saw these two videos, I seriously thought that based on the Droid ad and Droid fans, that it might be superior to the iPhone. I was so wrong. The only thing I like about the Droid is its slightly faster network speed, and that's a Verizon thing.

I'm very much into each his own, but now when I am taunted by a Droid-zombie, instead of wondering what this incredible awesome iPhone killing machine is that they speak of, I'll just laugh. :D

Droid is relatively old. Look at the EVO on Sprint or Incredible or Droid X on Verizon. Can do more than the iPhone4 can do in some important areas.

Thanks for sharing. I am more enlightened.

I'm impressed with this one's screen size, 4G speed, outputs and superior still camera quality.

HTC EVO 4G

This one I've seen before and it's clunky and huge. It almost looks like a tablet!

Droid X

This one's camera options are cool, and I love the gaming at the end. But that's about it.

Incredible

With that, I have to stand by my earlier opinion. I'm underwhelmed. I mean, the iPhone surely has competition in areas, but to me those areas are minor. To someone else, they may be major.

I also think that Apple should design additional phones because I wouldn't mind an EVO-like device with an Apple iOS.
 
Perhaps it's karma coming back to bite Apple (pun intended).

Gizmodo may have done some questionable things of late, but outright illegal stuff is still up in the air (and I'm not going into details since none of us know them anyway, the real details) but, for all the grief that Apple has shown them and continues to show them because some Apple bonehead lost a phone, well...

Maybe karma is kicking into high gear and now Apple can feel the pinch...
 
Apple sold 600,000 iPhones before it launched I don't think they know what feeling a pinch is. I'm pretty sure gizmodo is just upset that they had their geek time interrupted by the police.
 
Anyone who still spends their time looking at Gizmodo as a legitimate information resource are entirely discounted by me. They have shown their colors long before now... so anyone who hasn't learned any better by now have their own judgment put into question at this point.
