Even before you could buy an iPhone, this word was immediately associated with the Holy Grail of wireless devices. The iPhone was so highly praised that some called it "Jesus' Phone."
The first iPhone reviews were basically very similar: “Look at this multi-touch display! There are no buttons on it !!! ”,“ Look what a pretty iPhone! What are his pleasant forms and how comfortable he is ... ”in general, some interjections Oh, Oh, Wow.
After a month of owning an iPhone, it doesn't seem so perfect anymore, these are the flaws noted by one of the first to buy an iPhone and use it for more than a month. Although many of the problems will seem to Russian users not very significant, but it is worth paying attention to them
EmailIf your company uses Microsoft Exchange to work with e-mail (I think many people use it), you can forget about using the iPhone to get your business mail. The only way out is to use the Web interface, but the iPhone Safari browser does not work with it. And even if I was able to receive business email, then working with it is impossible at all. You can not delete the chain of emails, there are no notifications about new letters, so you have to check the mail every 15 minutes.
Surfing the internetThe iPhone Safari browser is one of its strengths, but it is also a flaw. Safari displays most Web pages better than any other mobile browser, but it is also notorious among developers for coding and Javascript. For example, when working with the software blogging platform chron.com, I could not scroll the window. because the scroll bar is gone.
Wi-FiiPhone can connect to the Internet in two ways: Wi-Fi or AT & T's Edge. If you currently do not have access to Wi-Fi, you will pray to find the access point as quickly as possible. Edge on the iPhone is running incredibly slowly. I gave up on trying to look at most of the Web pages when Wi-Fi was not available; it was too painful.
BluetoothOnly one device can be simultaneously connected via Bluetooth to the iPhone. If you for example have an Apple Bluetooth keyboard and headset, then one of the devices will have to be put off.
Virtual keyboardOne of the most sought-after features of the iPhone is its actual on-screen keyboard. This keyboard also turned out to be often criticized. As you press the buttons on the screen, they are magnified, helping you see them more accurately ... at least in theory. In fact, it sometimes gets in the way. Still prevents the feature of the iPhone, which predicts what word you are trying to type, good old T9 would be much more appropriate and more convenient.
