Couldn't do it on a single iPhone 3GS charge that's for sure.

At least my iPad buddy was barely able to read the whole thing.

Joking aside. Good phone, not a wanna have, but very good, polished phone. Aside from that never seen this much fanfare since Episode I came out in theaters.]]>Jun 22nd 2010 10:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
This may make me switch from my Droid on Verizon running 2.2 froyo at 1.3ghz. I love this phone and will keep it but this just seems to be an overall better experience. I would miss flash and wifi tethering but that is about it.. hmm something to think about!]]>Jun 22nd 2010 10:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Jun 22nd 2010 10:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Jun 22nd 2010 10:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
As much as the haters, hate to say it, Apple is the trend setting in mobile devices. Ever since the iPod no one else even comes close. In fact, you can thank Apple for pushing the smartphone market so hard, 90% of the design, and specs of all the newest smartphones were... "borrowed" from the iPhone.]]>Jun 22nd 2010 11:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/payola prostitutes]]>Jun 22nd 2010 11:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Jun 22nd 2010 11:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Jun 22nd 2010 11:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
People just can't use their Evo's correctly I'm guessing.

Lets look at this analytically and not emotionally. The "innovative" features called out on the iPhone 4. Camera Flash, inovative, NO, Multi-tasking: NO, Folders NO, forward facing camera NO, Network technology NO, Interface: hasn't changed much since original iPhone NO, Battery life Unknown no real testing was performed. Memory 32gb same as any other phone, NO. Camera 5 megapixel, nothing special, better cameras on other phones NO. Retina display possibly, although I have to hold my iPhone 3gs so close I go cross eyed before I can see the pixels. I fail to see how this phone is full of innovation and is head and shoulders above the competition.

"Ever since the iPod no one else even comes close. 90% of the design, and specs of all the newest smartphones were... "borrowed" from the iPhone."

There is so much wrong with this comment I am not sure where to begin. 1st the iPod has nothing to do with the current phone manufactures unless your intent was that apple only began to make good products after the introduction of the iPod. 2nd The newest top of the line smart phones don't share any of the specs of the iphone. If anything the iPhone has copied features of many of the current top of the line smart phones. If you compare the specs of the incredible or evo, the specs are comparable to the iPhone 4, if they don't exceed it. I am curious as to the iPhone 4's processor speed and ram. I am sure it is below the competition's 1GHz, and soon to be released 1.5GHz.
I give apple credit for dragging the other smart phone manufactures kicking and screaming into building a better product. I think the days of the iPhone being far superior to the completion is over. I for one love competition. ]]>Jun 23rd 2010 12:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
People all over the world will have to purchase a new calendar within the next twelve months]]>Jun 23rd 2010 12:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Which of course bring me to my main point-it's the networks holding this phone back. Or rather, the single network people have to choose from in the U.S. that would have crumbled from the usage if they had allowed facetime over 3G. Seriously, the iPhone needs a 4G network with lots of room to spare, and I don't mean 4G with a 2GB data cap and tons of restrictions on which apps can run on 4G.

P.S. The camera is pretty nice for a phone but even with the backlit sensor the photos are insanely grainy and would really only look ok resized for web usage.]]>Jun 23rd 2010 12:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Jun 23rd 2010 1:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
Well if someone else has an iPhone near you, they could tether you a wifi signal! :)]]>Jun 23rd 2010 1:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/

Good phone, but not liking the review. Over positive toward the goodies, not really speaking about the cons.

But do look at the original Android software designs and prototype hardware. They were trying to make a better BlackBerry. If Apple hadn't shown the world that a touch screen based phone was the future then Android would of never shifted gears and began to focus on the iPhone and touch.

So Android needs the iPhone and the iPhone needs Android. Just like the PC and Mac need each other. However, Windows Phone series 7 hasn't even shipped yet. Don't count them in the race till they actually put their horse on the track.

True though. I am definitely an Android fan and am currently waiting for my EVO to be delivered. BUT there is no denying that the iPhone 4 is a really great device. It takes amazing photos and great design and speed. I really wish other OS's would catch on to Apple's little animations as those are my favorite part of the phone lol. I can see though that they leave the icons as their UI to keep the phone snappy as well. HOWEVER, I still choose my EVO over it for various reasons which most can guess =) it's win-win though either way]]>Jun 23rd 2010 3:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
It is a good looking phone. I especially like the display. All the same I am waiting for the Captivate. I enjoy the andriod feel a little more. Plus I like the touch wiz UI.
Either way Apple is stepping it up. ]]>Jun 23rd 2010 4:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Jun 23rd 2010 4:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
What's there to compare? iPhone 4 knocks everything out of the world, it is the BEST thing right now money can buy, can't wait to get mine.]]>Jun 23rd 2010 4:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Jun 23rd 2010 7:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Jun 23rd 2010 7:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/How exactly? Its functionality finally matches my N95 from three years ago (except for the multitasking, it's still behind on that). The interface was always super great, but what good does that do you if you can't actually use it for anything?
The hardware and UI is great and very impressive, but actual functionality and OS has yet to do anything other than make me go ''meh''.]]>Jun 23rd 2010 7:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
Come on. Thats just BS. The Iphone doesn't really bring anything new in the mobile space. Only materials tops the competitors, personally I wouldn't give a rats ass about those things ass long ass the device doesn't break. Best phone, that just fanboyism, and I can't understand how Joshua can say such a twatty thing. Well that's Engadget journalism for ya. LMAO.]]>Jun 23rd 2010 8:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/Apple did some great things with hardware but a single device can only appeal to so many people. If they threw out a 4"+ version of this phone with a 1750mAh battery, they could start taking on all markets. Also, while the hardware is good, it is hardly future proof. In a matter of months, there will be phones coming out by the dozens that will knock the socks out of the iphone in the specs and features department.

And limiting Facetime to only iphone4 & only wifi has rendered it useless]]>Jun 23rd 2010 8:20AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/

Apple is trying to fool the general public with their stupid high dpi philosophy. As for the guys at engadget they easily seem to forget super AMOLED which is technically superior to retina. I have 20:20 vision and I am not able to see any pixels at a normal distance in my droid.
The build quality is fantastic. I would be a douche to say its not that impressive. The camera quality is really good. Apple hasn't given in to the megapixel myth and put in a large lens. Highly unexpected from apple. As for the interface, I am sure google will make huge changes in gingerbread. After all they hired Matias Durate.]]>Jun 23rd 2010 9:21AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
Make that: the Whole World needs 4G to enjoy these features. And that includes the US, where the most-touted carrier has slow 3G so is moving to 4G sometime soon; Sprint has 4G that hopes to cover a third of the US population, assuming their somewhat cash-constrained partner can handle it; AT&T is looking to upgrade its 3G to close-to-4G speeds.

And remember: the wireless providers don't behav like charities: YOU are going to pay for all this extra data.]]>Jun 23rd 2010 9:49AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/22/iphone-4-review/
Now Josh, let's not use the inability of AT&T to handle a phone launch as the standard for a big launch. We all know they suck at pretty much everything but collecting fees.]]>Jun 23rd 2010 9:53AM
