So the other day a guy emailed me on CL wanting to trade me 2 iPhone 3gs for an old laptop I had sitting around. One has a broken LCD but fully functions when hooked up to iTunes and the other is functioning fine.I got home, turned off my Bold 9700 (Blackberry), swapped SIMs and made sure ATT had me on my unlimited data plan and I was off...
Pros- First touchscreen i've ever used that was easy to type with.
Web browser can do every thing I need.
Much better apps then were avaiable for my Black Berry.
Cons- Slow as heck. Can take 5-8 secs to load my contacts or texts
Push never functions correctly, I have to manually refresh to load emails.
Browser is SLOW!...I thought my BB was bad but this thing puts it to shame.
Jailbreaking the phone slowed down all functions to about 1/2 speed.
Can't fully import my contacts from my old phone. Is there a easy way or just sync with Outlook(which is stupid because I do not use outlook.) or set up my gmail account as a exchange server(But it still does not import ALL of my contacts?!)
Battery only lasts about 8 hours but the phone is old so its expected. Its just crazy what I have to go through to change a battery.
Are these pretty common pros and cons or is this very unusual? I am strongly considering switching back to my Black Berry and turning this phone into a mp3 player only. What are your thoughts?
