nice video thanks. 5 stars!
Bottom Line palm is a better smartphone, iPhone is a better media phone but media on the palm is not bad at all not mention sprints new mobile to mobile plan.
I think iphone is better for watching videos, and playing games. I dunno about music though since pre also does itunes…And the texting depends entirely on the user but i can see how iphones may be much easier. I just hate the pysical dimentions of the iphone. Its like a fucking brick lol. Also has higher chances of breaking and costs more monthly. I also dont like the simpliocity off all the apps for iphones background. Doesnt feel like a cell to me at all. Pre looks better in my opinion.
i think the pre can sync with itunes again now. Its been a back and forth battle, that i think pre will eventually win. They are dependant on it, and i doubt they will let it go without a fight.
The Pre feels cheap in your hand. The keyboard wouldn’t stand up to my level of abuse, and I could barely type on it. Great operating system, hardware sucks.
what ever happen to just making calls
As for internet browsing, the Pre is the only phone that can browse as smooth as the iphone can, but the iphones screen is bigger and it loads the page faster when scrolling down or up or zooming in or out. IMO, the Pre is the second or third best touch phone out there. HTC Hero could be second or third as well. The iPhone is still so far the best phone out, but when the Android-based phones come out for HTC and Motorola in Q4 2009-Q1 2010, the iPhone will be defeated.
iPhone does have a form of multitasking that you can listen to music while browsing the internet or playing a game, but thats it. Although it works faster than the Pre it isnt enough to compete with the Pres “cards”. For messaging, I guess it matters. IMO the iPhones keyboard is very nice and easy to use, while the Pres keyboard is to small for me. The email on the iPhone is around the same with the Pre.
“Most iPhone fans are teenagers anyway”
That isnt true in any way. True, that teenagers show the iPhone more affection than most phones, but then again most people out there love the iphone. Theres a reason why the last 2 iPhone models sold 1 million on the first weekend. REAL usage = multitasking, messaging, multimedia, internet browsing, and user interface. Ive already prooved that the iPhone is better with multimedia and UI than any other phone. Pre definately beats iPhone with multitasking
The 3MP camera may be pathetic considered to todays cameras, especially with no flash. But because of the autofocus and macro functions, the picture comes out very high quality and at times could even beat a 5MP or 8MP camera. For texting, IMO, the iPhone has the best touch keyboard out of any phone right now. It is easy and simple to use. IMO, the Pre doesnt even win the best physical keyboard award as it will only be good for people with small fingers.
simonique, theres a reason why the Pre has gotten many many returns as well. But you are right about the iphone partially. Multimedia on the iPhone is, no doubt, better than any other phone out there. Some more things you are missing out about the iphone is that the UI is the friendliest I have ever seen on a touch phone and makes the iPhone experience fun rather than a chore such as the N97.
notice how the only things everyone has mentioned about the iphone is
“music” “videos” and “games”?
It’s like that’s the only thing that’s important to people.
What about REAL usage?Most Iphone fans are teenagers anyways
and your point is?
It doesnt matter how many were sold it’s how many customers were satisfied. If people would quit fanboying and actually take the time to learn about a phone then there wouldnt be these type of stupid comments on youtube.
The Pre can’t sync with iTunes any more Hahaha
FOR APPS DOWNLOAD THE MOTION APPS CLASSIC EMULATOR…
There you can use any app from the previous Palm or w/e games. There’s like 20,000 in fthere.
The only problem with the pre is the marketing. This is the best phone on the market today. After using the phone for 24hr i don’t miss the iphone. Video and tons of apps is the only thing that puts me more on the iphone side. But i am glad that my company have sprint so i can two great phone.
Fanboys need try products before making comments.
Ok ive had the iphone an i just switched to the pre THE PRE FUKIN RAPPS THE IPHONE 3G S THE PRE IS SO MUCH FASTER WIT INTERNET AND REACTS FASTER WITH THE TOUCH AND THE YOUTUBE VIDEOS LOOK LIKE YOUR WATCHIN IT ONA LCD TV . UNLIKE THE IPHONE THO CUZ THE IPHONE ONLY HAS GOOD QUIALITY VIDEOS WHEN ITS ON WIFI BUT THE PRE HAS GOOD QUAILITY EVEN WHEN NOT ON WIFI
After a month with my Pre I’m convinced that the multi-tasking capabilities is the prime feature that just outweighs any other smart phone. I wished more people would make comments with logic and merit.
