Anyone happy with the 3Gs being the same physically?

[Duvi]

On the outside?

I am... I actually bought a 4 Invisible Shields and a case (I normally never do cases).

that was i think a pretty good move on apples part. i cant imagine the frustration going from the 1st to 2nd gen devices.

 

[big9erfan]

I like the fact users won't have to repurchase cases and accessories. Backwards compatibility is a good thing for users.

 

[toomanyphones]

Hell, yes. I have a couple of cases and screen protecters I don't have to get rid of.

 

[bmfan#IM]

yeah they was nothing wrong with the current design, thank god those light up apple logo rumors were bogus !

 

[Rene Ritchie]

Fashionistas who want to show off that they have the latest/greatest iPhone are likely disappointed because there's no new outward bling blang to make it in-your-face obvious. (Though maybe they can run around yelling "I'm shooting video without jailbreak!!!!111")

Personally, I'm fine. I'm always happy when Jony Ive flexes his design muscle, but not just for designs sake.

Next gen unibody aluminum?

 

[chobbs1]

I am glad because I can now pre-order the case that I want! Can anyone say VAJA?!
This Homo wanted the glowing logo. not a must just thought it would be cool.

 

[missdee]

yeah. i like it because i wont be looking outdated with having the 3g. hope that doesnt sound too silly, but its true. plus i think the design of the 3g is beautiful! but.... i do think it is strange that its a different phone, yet looks the same

I love it. My sister has a 1stGen iPod Touch. I've been so use to my iPhone 3Gs curve back that when I hold her iPodT it feels weird and almost uncomfortable.

However, I did wish that the back of it was matte. If anything, I wish it was like the back of the Ai iMac. I love the feeling of the back of the iMac.

 

[escapethematrix]

no

no, but at least all the accessories/cases fit.

I don't mind the design of the 3G,so it's no big deal for me. I thought the new one would look similar,just maybe thinner.

 

[JustinHorn]

Though maybe they can run around yelling "I'm shooting video without jailbreak!!!

That's what I will be doing on a Saturday night after a few drinks

 

[PhxBlue]

I love the 3G design. Its thin and feels great in hand. Its the perfect size for containing a 3.5 inch screen.

 

[Tramain]

I would of liked a new design just for something different but ooo well.

 

[EEZ123]

If you own a 3G iPhone, how could you not love the design being the same. I have 3 different cases, 2 extra screen protectors, a belkin fm transmitter. Now with the update to 3.0 I can use the bluetooth headset that has been gathering dust since I switched to the iPhone.

 

[Jellotime91]

Happy cause now I don't have to buy another goddamn $40 dock which should come with the phone anyway!

 

[E Pow]

Im happy with it. I'm not sure just how much sexier you could make it. It's gorgeous!! All i care about is what the phone can do. Apple nailed the best looking device last year, now they are nailing and locking down the best features. We can finally stop hearing everyone else say what there phones can do without jailbreaking. The iphone is close to being 99% perfect in looks and in what the phone can do.

 

[iSkythe]

I would've wanted the matte backing, so it doesn't show the many fingerprints. But I'm happy with the 3G design anyway.

 

[Entertainment72]

The Xbox 360 doesn't look the same as Xbox, the PS3 doesn't look the same as PS2. No new "upgrade" usually looks the same, it's the american way so no I'm not happy. I mean.. does a BMW M3 look the same since 2000? Imagine if all cars from the same manufacturer looked the same.. interesting.

 

[Dyvim]

I'm happy. My cases and docks will continue working. Plus we won't have to wait months for all new accessories to hit the market- a wide variety is already available.
