Impressive quality, but constricting interface

CrocadileUT has owned it for more than one year before publishing this review

I purchased an iPhone 4 for my wife, and she absolutely loves it, with literally no complaints at all. If she were writing this review, the phone would get a perfect 10. I acknowledge the phone build quality is amazing, the camera is great, its easy to use, just a great device.

For me, this phone is frustrating when compared to Android. I love being able to tweak things exactly the way I want like choosing a launcher, custom icons, sounds, effects, emulators, unlocking capabilities life tethering, etc... iOS will give you none of this unless you jailbreak, or just say no and go with Android. I also HATE iTunes because it forces you to use it for syncing MP3's, but on my Android I just copy and paste files like a USB flash drive. I noticed apps are typically more expensive for iPhone vs Android as well.

So again, this is a great phone, but it's not for everyone if you're picky like me. I prefer Android, but in the iPhone's defense it is more stable than my Android phone, better battery life, and it has been easier to use on trips than my phone was.

Build quality 10/10 Solid build quality, but PLEASE buy a good soft rubber case for this phone, because it uses real glass and could easily shatter if dropped.

Reception 10/10 I don't know what all the negative hype is about with the reception, it seems fine to me.

Call quality 10/10

Internet 10/10 Very responsive browser!

Multimedia 7/10 MP3 playback is fantastic, but I hate iOS handling of MP3's. It forces you to use iTunes to sync, rather than simply copying files wherever you want like I can with Android.

Camera 9/10 I would give this a 10, except that people with blue eyes typically get a gold neon eyes in photos (instead of red eye). They really need to devise a software patch for this. I know they fixed this issue in iPhone 4S by moving the flash.

UI speed 10/10 Smooth

Everyday usage 9/10 Great, except for the restrictions I mentioned

Text input 8/10 Pretty good, although I prefer a physical keyboard. Auto correct is certainly interesting on this phone too. Check out the "damn you auto correct" website to see what I mean.

Display 9/10 Top notch quality, just wish it was bigger

Battery 8/10 Pretty good compared to Android, but I recommend iPhone owners buy a juicepack case for more battery life. I wish they had juicepack for Android!

Pros

• Build Quality
• Crisp Display
• Camera
• Easy to use

Cons

• Glass display can easily shatter, MUST buy a good case
• display small compared to other phones
• Gold neon eyes in photos (instead of red eye)
• Frustrating to tweak unlike Android

NOT WHAT I WAS EXPECTING.. :'(

MYTHiKAL has owned it for less than 3 months before publishing this review

I have had iPhones in the past, so I figure that after a couple of years, I would see great improvement, but it didnt took me long to realize that other then some very few visual updates mainly to keep up with Android, there isnt much new or anything good enough to say that this phone is what it used to be for me years ago when there was no competition.. Not to mention is not even a 4G phone so the internet speeds are horrible.. Overall,, I'm very disappointed.. I'm not even going to bother with the PRO/CONs section.. Overall experience = BORING..

My phones on ATT now: (Samsung Skyrocket and Samsung Infuse 4G) make any iphone look like a missing link..

Lupe_Daniels has owned it for less than year before publishing this review

I always switch my phone every month or two. It's only because I want the latest greatest Smartphone. I've had about 8 phones since 2007 and once the iPhone4 came to Verizon, i decided to switch and this is the longest I've ever had a phone. It is amazing, its clear, it has everything right. Escpecially since my battery life lasts around 7-9 hours! I love my iPhone4! I'm only 15 and all i want is Apple!

No competition

biophone has owned it for less than 3 months before publishing this review

If your looking for a smartphone that is reliable easy to use and has excellent multimedia then look no further. I am planing on buying the Iphone 6 when it comes out but till then I am not disappointed. The droids are good but in my experience don't buy an lte phone yet it isn't worth it and prepare to be very careful with droids as they tend to get viruses. As for blackberry and palm don't bother you will be happier with this.

Build quality 10/10 This is the best built phone you can buy. Its very well made and feels like a quality product. Its also slim and easy to hold.

Reception 10/10 Don't worry about reception the death grip is overblown. I have never experienced a death grip plus vzw has the best service.

Call quality 10/10 Its so clear and crisp and the speaker is more then loud enough.

Internet 8/10 It doesn't have flash but its easy to navigate and well put together. If you want flash download skyfire. Also it gets a 8 because its of video playback go be better. If it had lte that would help.

Multimedia 10/10 Best multimedia on anyphone. Itunes and the appstore are the best.

Camera 9/10 Only 5 mp but takes better pictures then many 8 mp cameras. Also it has a front facing camera. I gave a 9 because the front camera isn't very clear.

UI speed 10/10 The best interface around its very easy to use and professional.

Everyday usage 10/10 Its very reliable for everyday. IOS is secure.

Text input 10/10 Extremely clear

Display 10/10 Its a blow away retina display that looks fantastic.

Battery 10/10 For a smartphone its last a day which is great.

Pros

• Best interface
• Great battery for a smartphone
• Appstore and Itunes
• Display
• Real world speed
• Fits in my pocket
• Cool
• Easy to use

Cons

• Single Core
• No lte
• New one is coming out soon

Meh, why all the hype?

WD40 has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

Activated one to see why all the hype. Everything is so expensive on the app store, not to mention the accessories. Adding multiple recipients in text messages is a nightmare. Can you make the calling application harder to use? I really though having it on Verizon would mean no dropped calls, that is a hoax. The user interface is very boring. I don't like a bunch of squares. Couldn't we have some personality. Internet is really limited. Do I really have to hook it up to iTunes for everything? Seriously?

Okay, now to the good. Love the screen, love the screen. The phone feels great in my hand. The app store has everything! Tons of cool games. I like that you can synchronize iPod, iPad, and Apple TV. People think I am cooler carrying one. I could probably hang out with movie stars now that I have one.

I am going back to my Droid X2.

westroy has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

Very good phone. Wanted it for a while. Got it before Verizon got rid of unlimited data. One thing that I don't like is that you can not set the phone to vibrate when screen is being used like many other phones. I liked this because I new if I pushed the screen or not. battery has been good so far and it can always be replaced if it ever goes bad. (Verizon store guy said it couldn't but really it can). Sure the new iPhone will be coming out soon but this will do just fine for the next 2 years.

Beats all other Android devices out there

MHAkram has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

Best phone I have ever owned - no doubt. And trust me, I go through a lot of phones. I have owned the Devour, original Droid, Droid Incredible, Droid X, Droid Pro, and the Droid Charge - as you can see, I go through phones a lot - and this beats them all.

Teenage trolls

Hitdog has owned it for less than year before publishing this review

First of all, don't trust a review when they can't even spell some of the most common english words. Maybe they were typing on an android keyboard, I don't know.

I had the Droid x, Droid incredible, and the Droid 2. I liked them. However I went through 4 x phones. Incredible had battery issues and the D2 I just didn't care for.

The iPhone is solid. It's reliable. The Internet is fine with no flash. You will find most sites have adapted. Sites such as espn. Big time sites have made iPhone specific sites. Full sites not wap. The flash argument is dead.

It is true a lot of apps cost money. But if paying 99 cents bothers you I'm not sure what to say.

I miss androids free google navigation a lot, but the positives (batt life, stability, still more apps) far outweighed the negatives.

If you are an MLB fan the Droids struggle with the live video. iPhones work perfectly. Google it, I am not making it up.

Also still no movie or tv rentals on android phones. iTunes is a huge advantage especially if you have kids and need them entertained for a half hour.

Great Phone, just not for me

rss24 has owned it for less than 3 months before publishing this review

I have had many phones over the past few years from several android phones, to symbian s60, to palm web os devices, but I had never had the iphone so when Verizon picked it up I bought it that same week. The build quality is a notch above basically every other phone out there and IOS is fluid, easy to use, and nice to look at, the keyboard really is the best and the camera took amazing photos and video. I really had not complaints. In the end the what brought me back to android was the lack of cusomizability and the lack of options as far as hardware (I personally like a 4" or 4.3" screen).

Great phone on a better network!

cellgeek82 has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

I know I haven't had the Verizon iPhone 4 very long but I've had the iPhone 4 in general for a while. The iPhone 4 is a great device, simply put! It may not have the "wow factor" and shine of Android but I found that some of the features that Android claims to have doesn't work that great. The hardware and software (both iOS and apps) on the iPhone 4 equally work very good. Some are afraid of the antenna issues. I noticed it more on the AT&T version but on the Verizon version its not as bad, actually haven't seen any signal drops. I have a thin silicone case on mine and I have full service all the time. The iPhone is good for any user and I highly recommend it! In short the iPhone is a reliable phone and even better on the Verizon network.

• No GPS Navigator. Have to download carrier or 3rd party Navigator app.
• No micro-USB charger. Standard 13-pin Apple port.
• Battery isn't really bad but as with all smartphones it could be better.
• Fragile. Don't drop or get a case.

This phone is absolutely amazing.

Dylon has owned it for less than 3 months before publishing this review

I've had this phone for almost 3 months now and I absolutely loved it. I've had a Droid incredible and driod x. Along with on T-Mobile a flashed HD2. I couldn't stand android, for the one reason of battery. Yeah, it's cool to have a widget that shows updates on your facebook, but I'd rather not have that and have a phone that last all day. The texting is perfect, it's hard to mess up on a word. It has the best touch I've ever seen. Along with the retina display. I've never seen it so good on a phone. And when you compare the droid incredible 8mp to the iPhone 5MP, the iPhone kills the phones quality. iPhone 4 has the best quality for a camera I've ever seen, better then most digitals. It's fast, it's really fast. I'm almost positive the majority of the people giving this phone bad ratings has never even seen an iPhone 4. The phone is not slightly slow, and it doesn't freeze until you jailbreak and load it with tons of jailbroken apps. I love my iPhone, and i'm around 65% around 8 hour of heavy use.

Way Better than ATT Iphone

Nell26 has owned it for less than 3 months before publishing this review

This phone is AMAZING! I had the 3gs with ATT and let me tell you Verizons service is way faster in my opinion! I have had the Evo with Sprint also and I honestly think the Iphone 4 on verizon is faster than the 3g service on the Evo. I dont work in the cellphone industry but i have had almost any phone you could think of from the optimus to the evo and the iphones. I love love the Iphone by far. It has never locked up or disapointed me!!

Fair opinion

jared712 has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

The iphone has a superior build quality, as most droid phones use plastic, including for the screens (not Googles fault, it's the phone maker). The ui on the iphone4 is superior in every aspect, from text messaging, email, phone book navigation, to photo editing/viewing. It's a cleaner and much smoother navigation experience. The iphone 4 has been flawless, with not one software problem. When I was with att, I couldn't talk on the 3gs for more than 10 minutes with a dropped call, regardless if I had reception or not. I would have anywhere from 2-4 dropped calls daily. Once I went back to Verizon (although they nickle and dime their customers) the reception is great. I have not had a dropped call (not a single one) with either my incredable, or my iphone4, which I've had for a month now.

I would like to see a faster processor, and a 4" screen (no larger). I could comment on a better camera, video experience, and louder volume. But really... it's a fantastic phone/camera/music player/video player/photo viewer/internet device/gps unit/gaming device..... what more do you want from a "phone"? I'm just glad it I can make a call on it...
Android/Google have come a long way in a short peroid of time, and have a fantastic ui; however at this time in the game, I'm partial to ios... Plus I hate the skins, and the time it takes for the phone manufacturers to update their verision, keep it clean guys, stock Android!!!

It's ok but I can wait

bcnjgirl has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

I work in the cell phone industry and I have to say, the Iphone is nice.
I have owned every smartphone from blackberry to android.
I owned a droid x before purchasing the Iphone.

The Iphone interface is very polish. The transition to different screens is very smooth.
There are many free applications in the App store.
I have to say that I do appreciate not having to worry about running apps like you do on the android.
The call quality is very good. Yes better than my droid x.


Here is what I don't like:
- no customization (you can't change the home screen unless you jailbreak it)
- notifications aren't bold enough (notifications can be set for each item such as email, text, etc..)
- no widgets (if you have a droid and know how to use it you will miss not having certain items right on the screen)

Overall, I feel if you have to keep a phone for 20 months, you should wait for the 4g phones. However, this phone is good for the basic smartphone user. I will be getting the phone for my mother because the android is too much of a phone for her, but she needs more than a blackberry.

I find that the Verizon Iphone to be a very reliable phone. Good connection, better than ATT iphone. I also own an Ipad with ATT 3g, it is less reliable than the Verizon Iphone 3g. In some areas, the 3g between ATT and Verizon are the same, in other, ATT does not work, while Verizon has strong 3g signal.
I looked at the EVO Shift, but he android apps seemed buggy relative to the Iphone apps. I am satisfied with the overall performance of the Iphone 4, and definitely happier than with my previous smartphone (Omnia).

I don't think many of the criticism about the Iphone 4 seems to be deserved, but there is one critique which is true. You cannot use the internet while making a telephone call. Other than that one issue, the Verizon Iphone 4 is superior in connection to the ATT Iphone 4.

As for Andriod phones, I think they still need to work the bugs out of the apps. Also, I notice many of the android phones lack the front facing camera for video conferencing.

Using Tango app for 3g video conferencing worked well with the Verizon Iphone 4. Hundreds of frees apps, as compared to a few dozen andriod apps. I would choose an Iphone over an android phone for now, including the HTC Evo shift (complicated, and not as user friendly. Also lacks video conference camera.).

Stop Trolling

McBeaven has owned it for less than month before publishing this review

It is pretty obvious that there are some people on here just trolling, and have possibly never even used the phone, to actually give an honest opinion about something you have to use it for more than just a couple of days, unless its absolutely unusable, which i know for a fact, this does not describe the iPhone, although it may not be perfect. The build quality is fantastic, it suffers from some problems, but the actual quality of the materials is top notch, the browser is amongst the best, android's is the same, its all based on the same webkit engine. The camera is great, there is no need for an 8 megapixel camera on a phone, if your basing your phone purchase on the camera then your doing it wrong, you will not see a difference in a 5 megapixel to an 8 megapixel phone camera, do a little research and you will see why, people just automatically think bigger is better, but its not. The battery life is amongst the best. Much better than any android phones, but this is not androids fault, it is the phones, hardware, Apple just has this down to a better science. The display is very crisp and clean. There is a lot of hype built around the screen, but you will not notice a difference in picture quality unless you compare it with another phone side by side. The death grip is much overplayed, but still a problem, i never squeeze my phone as a hard as i can when i am talking on it, that is the only way i have noticed an issue, that being said, it is still not the best.

After using Android this phone is just so uninteresting. Boring user interface, no customazation, apps are almost all paid, no good free apps. The whole experience was just like GOING BACK instead of progressing. I also don't like how the sides feel in your palm, they are too sharp.

I pre-ordered it on verizon and had it in my hands on 2/7. Since then, I can't stop playing with it! I haven't had any antenna issues and calls are crystal clear! It had a MUCH better battery than my prior phone- the DroidX. Also, the speed is unmatched- no matter how many apps I have, it hasn't slowed down the phone at all! FINALLY the Iphone!!!

I couldn't wait to get it. Then couldn't wait to send back!

I had HTC Incredible and was very happy with it. But still, I couldn't wait to get this "wonderful" iPhone, just like many more millions of people. What a mistake it was! This phone is nowhere near what other phones can do now. Internet was so slow compared to my HTC. So was the reception, not as good. Interface is so bland, there's nothing attractive about this phone (IMHO), despite all the hype. Plus, my camera was broken, shutter wouldn't open. I understand it's another common problem with this thing, in addition to dropped calls, death grips and so on...

I had to happiest days of my life: the day I finally got my iPhone, and the day I sent it back!

In my mind this phone was the best, but in person didn't meet my expectations. I'm sure it will beget better after Verizon speeds up the internet and gets Flash. I sent mine back
Did a side by side test with a HTC Driod Incredible and the Droid was so much fast then the iphone :( My push didn't work right called Verzion they said send it back.

My first smartphone. All i hoped for.

Great phone. Plan to keep it for the duration of my contract unless something goes seriously wrong. Overall, no complaints besides battery life. It just needs a task manager or app killer and it would be perfect. The bright side is I can basically charge it wherever I go because I have my laptop with me often. Also for the internet, if you are a Verizon customer and planning on getting this phone, the internet is fine. Not slow at all. There is no speed difference from all the Droids on the market. Individual ratings will go in more depth below.

Build quality 10/10 Very sturdy plus many case options to protect it

Reception 10/10 No problems with the so called "death grip". Verizon moved the antennas to fix that issue

Call quality 10/10

Internet 10/10 Nothing really to compare to for me so it gets the job done. I see no need for the voice and data at the same time so that is a non issue also. Not slow at all.

Multimedia 10/10 Music and Video are all from Itunes and the quality is great on the retina display

Camera 9/10 I'd give it a 10 if it had a slightly better camera on the front and an 8mp for the back. No complaints, just recommendations.

UI speed 10/10 What else can you expect from Apple

Everyday usage 10/10 Everything I ever need in a day. Listen to music, play games, send texts, check emails, phone calls, etc.

Text input 10/10 The best touch qwerty interface on any phone available. Just beats out the swype for the new samsung phones and the touch on the new htc models as well.

Display 10/10 Beautiful. End of story.

Battery 7/10 Could be better. Needs an app killer or task manager like the droid. If I'm not playing games or anything that uses intense battery, it lasts a while. But still could use some work.

Pros

• Everything but battery

Cons

• Needs app killer or task manager

Great phone!

I got the Droid X about a week ago and was having so many software issues with it, I just couldn't stand it, so I swapped it for the iPhone! It was a great choice because of the simplicity, while still being able to control what you want. The only issue I had was that the 3G cut out yesterday and I had to restart it to get it back, but I had that problem with my BlackBerry Storm2 a lot, so I'm not too worried.
