Having been holding out for the iPhone to officially launch in Singapore, I was really ecstatic to know that it was going to be brought in by Singtel. I pre-registered to purchase it on the launch day but when I arrived the queue was snaking around the building.
It was only a week later that I picked up my black 16G iPhone. I decided to choose the black as there were reports of the case cracking easily and it shows up on the white coloured iPhones readily. Not sure if it is a design flaw or how rampent it is.
After a month has passed, there are still a few quirks that I still have not gotten used to.
- No way to forward sms
- Cannot check last call duration
- New contacts added from the phone cannot be added to groups
- Difficult to type sms or make a call without looking at the screen
There are also things I like and use a lot on the iPhone.
- Dedicated switch to turn off the ringer
- Sms in conversation style
- Web browsing with Safari
What’s your take on the iPhone?
