iPhone 3G 16GB - Thoughts...

[Gall1987]

Hi all,

I have recently upgraded my phone from a Nokia N95 standard to a iPhone 3G 16GB.

I am with o2. My contract on my N95 was 600 minutes, 1000 texts and unlimited texts all weekend and this only cost me £35 over 18 months.

With the iPhone I have 500 texts and 600 minutes but have added an unlimited text bolt on for £7.50. Therefore the iPhone is £42.50 over 18 months. I also get the unlimited data which will allow me to always be on the net.

I had the choice of paying £155 for the iPhone new or £99 for a reconditioned handset so I went for the £99 option.

I have read a new of reviews about the iPhone and they have mainly been good with the odd exception.

What are your thoughts on the iPhone (good and bad) and the contract that I now have?

Thanks

It may not come as a surprise for you all to hear but I recieved the phone today and it will be back in the post first thing in the morning.

I have never used a 'phone' that is so hard to use, navigate and just do general texts etc...

My thoughts are this is a great 'gadget' but nothing more and really shouldn't function as a phone.

I am now using an old phone but am looking at getting something that I know I will get on with. I am tempted to get the N95 8gb as I like phone that do not have the touch screen as they are easier and faster to use.

Any suggestions on any other phones that may interest me? I feel phones that follow the Nokia layout and functions.

Thanks
