My Apple iPhone
I bought the new iPhone 3G right when it came out over a year ago. I have to say, it is the best phone I have ever had, and it is still the best out there. There have been a ton of new smart phones to hit the market after iPhone, like the Blackberry and others, but the iPhone 3G is clearly on top. This three G phone can do it all. I will start with the one con of the phone, and that is that you are stuck into the AT&T contract, and it is very expensive.
That being said, the rest is all positive. This phone has everything a technologically sound person would want. The phone has Safari, Apple’s browser pre-loaded on it and works off of the 3G network. If you are in a wireless zone, you can connect to Wi-Fi for even faster speeds. I use 3G a lot of the time as I am traveling often, and the 3G is not that slow at all. The web browsing is great, and with the new addition on the latest update of cut, copy, and paste, links are a cinch with this phone.
Moving onto the phone aspect, I get great reception in most areas, with the exception of wooded areas and distant towns, and then I get awful reception. Since I am rarely in those bad areas, it is a great phone. The sound is perfect, and the phone gives you many in call options while you are on the phone. I can even browse my phone as I am on the phone.
I for one like listening to my iPod, and you can receive calls through your headphones and then if you have a microphone on your headphones, you can use that to talk clearly. The text messaging system on the phone is great, saving conversations for over a year, no matter the amount of texts! You can store tons of contacts and enter tons of different info like address. The map on it works like a charm. It saves you money because you don’t need to buy a GPS for your car, you can just use the phone. Of course, the thing that puts it on top are the apps. Look around for a top iphone resource and you’ll find there are a ton of amazing free and paid apps that really put the iPhone over the top.

Three G Phone Review: Samsung Glyde
The Samsung Glyde is an up to date three G phone with the latest technology, touch screen and QWERTY key board. The phone slides open, revealing the key board, which is lit up.
The keys are small but easy to use with few mistakes after some practice. The touch which seems cool is very faulty. Many times you can’t even use the screen! which makes the phone useless since you need the screen in order to do anything.
The phone is durable, I’ve dropped mine several times resulting in just a few scratches. The battery wares down fast if you average 100-200 texts a day, expect the life of your phone to be an hour or two. When the touch screen actually works it’s very sensitive, expect some pocket calls.
Texting with the key board is sometimes difficult because the phone will randomly reset where the cursor is, making it very annoying and time consuming to text. When you’re in the middle of a call your ear will sometimes press the screen and hang it up. The speaker phone option isn’t very clear hard to understand. Charging the phone only takes and hour or two of course you’ll need to charge it a lot. My own Samsung Glyde has survived being dropped and fully submerged in a puddle, after 3 days of rice.
The phone will sometimes randomly turn on, which isn’t good if you’re a high-school student or at the movies. Some games wont work so be careful what ones you buy. The camera built into the phone is decent, but you’ll be getting blurry pixelized videos which last only 30 seconds.
If you’re considering getting a Samsung Glyde save your money for something better! Over all I rate the Glyde as a 2.5 on a 1-5 scale.
