At the time of the launch of the iPhone, a little twisted nose for news, after all, as a user of PDAs for more than a decade, sensitive to the touch screens do not tell me much. Moreover, the fact that the iPhone does not come with 3G connectivity has also contributed to this “revulsion” added a certain aversion to fashions.
I was user of Palms (yes, the old 1000 and Pilots Cliés) and I recently “turns” for the Microsoft platform, which in my opinion particular, until then, was the best and most complete.
How old and loyal user of PDAs, I can say that how to use the iPhone is years (many) ahead of competitors. After that an iPhone USA, the feeling of using a device with Windows Mobile or any other, is the same as when it has come to float (in every sense), since the speed of the unit to respond to touch, open and close the windows, until the quality and comfort of interaction.
Everything in the iPhone interface is well designed, for example, the marker of subtle scroll, which shows that part of the screen the user is. Dispensable? Perhaps, however, great.
The fact that the iPhone is not compatible with technologies for third generation (or above) is a negative point, no doubt, but who is going to consume the day of bytes dearest 3G plans? To send and receive emails, the EDGE is more than enough. In the case of Google Maps or internet pages, the idea is to use Wi-Fi, which provides a performance similar to the desktop.
Despite the iPhone, so far, be the most sophisticated phone and talked of the history, you can raise several negative points of the unit, such as a flat battery, which requires specialized assistance to the maintenance after a while.
The iPhone also does not support some software known as Skype and Flash. It may be that a version of them will emerge in a few months, but for now, no Skype or pages with Flash in telinha.
The device seems to be scratched or ask thrown on the floor. The surface of aluminum, very smooth, has little or no grip in the hand. To further strengthen this’ desire to fall, “nor is there any type of plug for loops of hand, common in 99% of mobile phones and smartphones.
The virtual keyboard is not a “Dopod”. The suggestion system of “smart” words of more atrapalha that helps, especially when the language is not the Portuguese. When sugrir words, the unit shows an “X”, as for any human being-this planet, means “cancel”, but in the case of the iPhone, the “X” to cancel the suggestion means “accept”. Commands to copy and paste also do not exist in the browser or in the applications of notes or messages.
The memory of the device, despite abundant compared to other devices of the same type, does not allow any type of storage of files other than those saved through iTunes (mp3, videos and competition). This means that the user can not download anything, or save files via web, much less save attachments from emails.
For those who guard contacts in SIM card is used to pass them, in seconds, a device to another, it will be impossible to do so with the iPhone. Even with the chip from AT & T that is possible. Settings GPRS and EDGE also not automatically appear, is nessário do them manually.
The iPhone also has no support for Dial Up Networking (DUN) which allows, for example, that the phone is used as an external modem (bluetooth) for other devices to gain access to the Internet via mobile network. Data transmission via Bluetooth is also categorically “blocked” by Apple. Stereo headsets also do not work.
Those who bought the last launch of the HTC, called “Touch”, will cry tears of blood when they have the pleasure (or displeasure) of using the iPhone. Unlike Apple’s device, where there really is inteligêcia in the software that comes on the screen of the sensors, the system’s Touch is nothing but a self-start program that plays some pre-defined movements. Not that the iPhone also does not recognize pre-defined movements, but the way he does is smart, not to mention the difference in performance between the 620MHz processor of the iPhone against fucking 201MHz processor found in the Touch.
The graphical features of the Touch are also unique to the iPhone. The impression is that is that the HTC was desperate to launch “something” before that Apple put its foot in the door.
Finally, despite many limitations and some bugs, surprende as the iPhone is being used. Every touch, every task, there is a new surprise, be it the result of intelligent form of navigation or quality of the graphic interface, which incorporates, for example, an image of being charged battery when you put the device in cradle.
At this moment, the question that remains in the air is: Is there life for Palm and Windows Mobile smartphones after the arrival of the iPhone?
If there is, it will be much more difficult.
