Top Reasons why you shouldn’t buy an iphone
Submitted by Srikanth on Monday, 22 September 20087 Comments
Are you planning to buy an iphone ? If so then this post is a must read for you.The much hyped iPhone 3G was launched in India a few weeks back and we have seen many issues and open security flaws in the new iPhone.Here I have some of the top reasons for which you shouldn’t buy an iphone.
- The worst thing is that you cannot forward a SMS message!! Don’t think that I am foolish, but really your iPhone 3G can’t forward a simple SMS. You’ll have to retype the SMS and forward it.
- There is NO copy / paste functionality. So you need to remember the texts and type again as you go.
- Bluetooth functionality is only limited to headset use. You can’t do any file transfer over Bluetooth.So if you are planning to share your songs or photos with your friends then forget about it!
- Absolutely no camera settings – it’s just like some ancient digital camera which does only point and shoot functionality.No Flash,No Zoom functionality.
- Photos taken in a VGA camera is better than that of iphone!
- The iPhone 3G is simply overpriced in India (Costs almost twice the price as in US)
- It’s in built Safari web browser does not support Flash as well as Java.
- There is No office document editor. Most Nokia’s come with inbuilt editor’s for Word / Excel.
- The iPhone doesn’t has AD2P on the Bluetooth – which means you can’t get stereo sound via Blue Tooth headphones, that’s a big disappointment for the music fans.
- The iPhone doesn’t has a Removable battery. Yes – you cannot change the battery yourself. Apple expects you to send the phone to an Apple Outlet to replace the battery. Now if you travel too much – what are you gonna do? Look for an Apple Store to interchange the travel battery?
- iPhone doesn’t has an option to send MMS. Forget about MMS.
- Though you can’t sent MMS – You can’t receive MMS messages too!
- You can’t set your personal songs as ring tones!
- The iPhone’s screen is not Finger Print Resistant. Since the iPhone is a touch screen phone so it is bound to get your finger print’s each time you touch so it gets dirty very easily.
- THE BIGGEST ONE – ONCE YOU ARE ON 3G NETWORK(Which I suppose will happen in a year in India), YOU CANNOT MAKE CALLS TO A PHONE ON 2G NETWORK. SO IF YOU WANT TO CALL A PERSON WHO IS NOT HAVING A 3G PHONE. SORRY, YOU’LL HAVE TO FIND A PCO and a 1RUPEE!!!
These are some of the top reasons that shows iphone’s incapability.But there are many more such reasons for you to stop buying an iphone.If you still want to buy the iphone then definitely you must be crazy?!

Now I am not a very big fan of the iPhone, but I think the author of this article has completely lost it.
Some of points mentioned are valid, most of them are hardly important, and a few are incorrect.
The camera is indeed pretty average, but you can set custom ringtones and you being connected to the 3G network does not prevent you from calling from 2G network phones.
Still its not the best 3G phone, and the recently released Samsung Omnia (which I currently own) and the soon to be released Blackberry Storm, overcome most of the crucial and smaller issues of the iPhone. The Omnia is brilliant even though it uses Windows Mobile. Samsung should really look at Android in the future.
I am not sure about the iphone but the g1phone rocks!!
Of COurse u can set your own ringtones…
Camero is good too…
ANd there is a Copy-PAst Option..
only know how to use
yes dudue u r right…..but it is limited only in 3G model..but now all functions which were not in previous model are now being available in 3GS model…….remember 3GS i phone….for more info contact me.
