Some initial impressions of the iPhone 3G...
As I wrote about recently both here on Disruptive Telephony and also over on the Voxeo weblogs, my employer, Voxeo, has made the switch from the Blackberry 8830 to the Apple iPhone as our corporate mobile phone. Employees in our Orlando office have already been receiving iPhones and mine just arrived last Thursday. Given that I've now been using it for a few days, I recorded these initial impressions:
The quick summary is:
- Typing - Better than I expected with the touchpad typing and Appple's correction routines.
- Coverage - Pretty much what I expected. AT&T's coverage here in southern New Hampshire is much less than Verizon's. However, it wasn't terribly bad and I did actually get better coverage in a few places like a local grocery store.
- WiFi - Very nice!
- Camera - While it's clearly not as good as my normal digital camera, it seems to be adequate for pictures for posting to blogs, etc.
- Browsing - As expected, the browsing experience is excellent. I do like being able to switch the phone to a horizontal display. Watching YouTube videos is great as well.
- App Store - Very cool apps available. I've installed a number related to social media / social networking and so far been quite pleased.
All in all, I've been quite pleased with how well it works. I'll write more as I use it more...
