Top 10 issues with the iPhone;
These are my top 10 issues currently with the iPhone. My caveat is that I LOVE THIS TECHNOLOGY…so that said, even if it seems negative, I believe that there are a few enhancements that could occur to make it just a little better of a device to use….
- Compatibility with current iPod speakers and devices. I have now been able to try it with a few headsets and sound projection devices. Overall it works, but sometimes the quality is not as good (or loud). I had to “hack” my Bose noise cancelling headphones in order to get them to work. Other cradled devices suggest turning off the phone (airplane mode).
- Interference: I have my iPhone connected to a PC and whenever it is near the PC or syncing there is a lot of white noise interference –buzzing and cracking.
- Make a new contact integration. It would be great if an unrecognized number would provide an option at the end of the call to add a contact (much like my Treo does).
- A better wifi option…by default I keep it off to extend battery life, but it would be great to have the option to turn it on when you check emails and surf the web.
- A settings button in most applications like email, internet, ipod, phone, etc.
- Youtube ? It seems to not have new content coming in often…
- Greasy Screen…have to clean often (limit others touching).
- ATT’s stupid www.viewmymessage.com (needs a browser, login and password which doesn’t work on the iPhone) when someone sends you a photo from a phone that is not an iPhone (ie no current MMS capability).
- Camera: No video, sound, or flash (third party software and attachment in the works?)
- “Metal” frame scratches easily. Much easier than the bomb proof glass does. I bought a killer case (case mate) for the phone and it scratched the whole lower part of the metal ring.
