People trading out their iPhone 3Gs

Just this week alone, two iPhone 3G owners traded out their Apple-flavored phones in favor of other smart phones. Why? Reality sinked in — the iPhone is just not for them.

The first one sold their month-old 16GB iPhone 3G for Php32,000. The second one wants to get the Samsung Omnia i900 in exchange for his new iPhone 3G.

Asked why, he replied “Mas gusto ko yung may mobile windows. Can’t forward text messages.”

So okay, most of the reasons people didn’t like their iPhone 3G are because of the functionalities and features we already knew the device lack.

Sometimes, we ought to learn from our mistakes the hard expensive way. Me, I’m loving my iPhone 3G as an internet device. ;)

    the Iphone is overrated and is just hyped-up by apple, but is far less useful than a windows mobile phone. its just the OS of Iphone that is making it a great browsing companion, but then when Windows Mobile gets fine-tuned, that advantage would soon be wiped-out.

    i’d still go with my Windows Mobile-powered pocket pc phone. …lotsa free apps, familiar interface, lotsa models to choose from and not as pricey as an iPhone.

    i frequently use the GPS in my iPhone 3G when I’m travelling because I have unlimited plans on this at 1.3k only in Globe.

    Nice thing in GPS, well,
    it moves the location point as you travel along the road.
    it pin point exactly where you are on the map.

    great device!

    I can even scolded the taxi driver when he re-routes to farther place against my real destination.

    ayt!

    Since apple begins manufacturing gadgets i intend to have one of their product. but as of now only the ipod 2nd generation i was able to purchase. and i enjoy what this gadget can do. now iphone 4 is about to release again and still i cannot have one yet of those three first release due to the price which i cannot afford. hope someday with the help of “sir abe” i can have one even second hand to experience to have iphone.

    Honestly… If you have an iPod touch…it suffice… All of the benefits of an iPhone minus the call text camera…is with an Ipod touch…I do have an iPhone 3gs but I still enjoy the iPod touch more… I’m not afraid to bring it anywhere..with the iPhone it’s always takaw nakaw…
