Backing Up Your iPhone Easily

With the popularity of iPhones these days, many people are carrying around lots of music, videos and email in their pockets and purses. Since we are constantly told about the importance of backing up our data that we keep on our computers, many people are rightfully concerned about backing up their iPhones as well. Unlike a computer that stays on your desk, an iPhone will go almost everywhere with you and is inherently easier to damage or lose. The good news is that Apple designed the iPhone to not require you to think about backing up the phone in most cases. Whenever you connect your iPhone to your computer in order to sync music, photos and videos, anything on your iPhone is backed up on your computer. This means that it’s a good idea to synchronize your iPhone every once in a while. Luckily, most people already do this when adding more music to their phones. Based on how iTunes works, restoring a backup is easy: If your phone were to be lost, you could them buy a new one. When you connect that new phone to your computer, iTunes will update the phone to be identical to your old phone based on when you last synchronized it.

One situation where you may need to take extra care is if you normally sync your iPhone with a laptop computer that you also regularly carry with you. In this case, it’s common for you to be carrying phone and laptop with you which means that you don’t have a backup safely stored at home. Here, it’s a good idea to keep a backup of your laptop somewhere at home. This can mean writing a DVD every once in a while, or keeping a spare external hard drive at home that contains a mirror image of all your data. This means that if your phone AND your laptop are stolen, you can restore a new phone and a new laptop for your backup at home.

When it comes to the matter of reading iPhone reviews, it becomes important to establish the credibility of the individual who is writing the review. That is to say, if the reviewer is not qualified to write the review then the review may be without merit. While this may seem like an overly serious assessment of requirements needed to read a review, there needs to be a clear understanding present as to why the potential customer is reading the review in the first place.

The primary reason people read a consumer review is to make the proper purchasing decision. Considering that there is a time and monetary commitment required for making the purchase of the iPhone, the need to be forewarned and forearmed is vital to many people who are of limited time and resources. In short, they peruse the iPhone reviews so as to make sure they are not making an inaccurate purchasing decision.

If the credibility of the review is in question, this will undermine the primary purpose and objective of reading the review in the first place. Of course, there are those who read consumer reviews for entertainment purposes only, but such trite casual reading is also deserved of accuracy in consumer review and reporting.

Providing iPhone reviews – or any reviews for that matter – should not be treated tritely by the reviewer and there should be a clear and definite attempt to provide a quality review. If not, the previously aforementioned undermining of the review’s purpose becomes present.

The Unimportance of “Like or Dislike” Statements in iPhone Reviews

If there was a genre that movie critics disliked to review it would be the comedy genre. The reason for this is that no matter how much they may dislike a comedy they can not say it was not a funny film if the bulk of the audience is laughing. The purpose of a comedy is to make people laugh and if it does then it succeeds at its purpose.

Similarly, liking or disliking a particular iPhone may provide entertaining reading as some iPhone reviews may serve a purpose of being little more than a vehicle for humor, but whether a person likes or dislikes the phone is irrelevant unless the liking or disliking is expanded upon to include whether or not the phone delivers on its promised service. Ultimately, this is the most important aspect of the phone – does it work or not and does it provide a functional value in concert with its cost?

Gadget Review: Blackberry Bold vs iPhone 3GS. Blackberry or iPhone? That is the question I hear every day from any person looking to obtain one of the cool gadgets. Well my friends, this review will most certainly shed some light on both phones, and hopefully you will be able to draw some conclusions at the end.

As you know from my previous post: Gadget Review: iPhone 3GS, I am quite the happy iPhone owner. I do not own a Blackberry Bold, but a lot of my friends are in possession of the competitive Research In Motion (RIM) gadget. I have played around with it several times, and I believe I have established a fairly good “rapport” with the Blackberry.

The Blackberry Bold has a very sleek design, unlike its predecessors. I fancied the look of the gadget very much. The QWERTY keyboard was always easy to use, as the buttons are very well designed for data entry on this neat gadget. Now, one of the bigger features on the Blackberry Bold is the screen. The gadget features a half VGA resolution 480 x 320 pixel color display. The quality of the picture is extremely crisp, and I would be very satisfied to watch the latest episode of Two and a Half Men. The email on the Bold is superb. I do not think there is any real competition for that particular aspect of the Blackberry, as it is the main feature that RIM strives to improve on with every new gadget release. And of course there is the Blackberry Messenger. Loved by many and desired by others. This Blackberry service is free, and it features on every Blackberry released. This cool digital gadget reduces your bill greatly on text messaging. Now of course, this is only available to Blackberry phones, hence making it such a unique feature for the RIM device.

Now for the review of the cons….yes there are always cons! The Blackberry Bold is fairly big in size. Its bulky size does not allow for seamless blending into your pocket. If RIM manages to reduce the size of Blackberry Bold to one of that the Pearl sports, I think the customer base for the gadget would increase dramatically. The Blackberry Bold browser, while an improvement, is still ways away from a user friendly interface. Navigation is done with the trackball that is located in the middle of the gadget, and the constant scrolling to navigate through the pages can become fairly annoying and tiring. I hope RIM thinks of something for the future Blackberry phones. The screen, while crisp is only a half size. But that is the trade off with most non-touch screen gadgets. Finally, the camera leaves desirable improvement. Blackberry Bold does in fact come with a flash, and the camera is a 3.2 megapixel camera, but the Sony Ericsson CyberShot dwarfs the Blackberry gadget in comparison, however we will leave the Sony Ericsson gadget for another review.

The comparison of the Blackberry Bold to the iPhone 3GS is a fairly daunting task (unlike my previous comparison of the iPhone and the Nokia N-95), as in my opinion both gadgets are intended for different target markets and meant for slightly different purposes. However, let us attempt to compare and contrast the two gadgets.

The screen comparison is fairly simple: you get a bigger screen with the iPhone, but the quality is better on the Blackberry Bold. Now, do note that the screen on the iPhone is the glue that holds everything together. While it is big, it is also almost like putting all your eggs in one basket – lest the screen crack, the gadget performance might suffer. Such is the double-edged sword nature of the touch screen phones!

If you prefer real tangible buttons for data entry such as on the Blackberry Bold, as opposed to digitized keyboards on the iPhone, the choice is fairly obvious; this one is really down to user preference. I personally happen to love the iPhone keyboard, but I do not have a problem with the Blackberry one either; it is simply that I prefer a bigger screen, and the iPhone keyboard makes it a very efficient gadget.

The camera. To be quite honest, this comparison of the two gadgets in the picture-taking aspect can be described as a Special Olympics race. Now, I have nothing against the handicapped population of our world, and apologies if you found it offensive, but to simply put it, the two cameras of the iPhone and the Blackberry Bold are simply not on par with what is out there. Blackberry trumps the iPhone by 1.2 megapixels and a flash, however it is not really something I would be particularly proud to show off to all my friends. Moving on.

Email. Absolutely no competition. Blackberry phones were designed for email. iPhone does have a decent and simple email client, but it does not even come close to the RIM gadget.

Blackberry messenger is something I would love to have on my iPhone. I am a huge admirer of the iPhone text messaging system, but if I could also send texts for free, well let’s just say that even Gollum from Lord of the Rings would overlook his Precious for a feature like that!

Browser. Once again, no contest, but this one goes to the iPhone. Easy to use, big screen, fast Safari browser. Once you have used the iPhone browser, I would dare anyone to find a gadget that aces the Apple phone. Blackberry Bold is blown out of the water, country, planet and solar system in this department.

Finally the size of the two gadgets is very comparable. Personally, I find the slim form factor of the iPhone extremely convenient, however it does make it more fragile. Don’t forget it’s in your back pocket, or you will end up having a nice spider-web design on the screen of your precious gadget. The Blackberry Bold, as mentioned earlier is fairly bulky, but it does make it much sturdier than the iPhone. I give this to the iPhone, but as with most aforementioned comparisons, this one is once again user preference.

The verdict….well there simply is no winner in this battle. Many of the comparisons of the two gadgets were ultimately down to user preference. You have to ask yourself: what am I going to use my phone for? If it is for email and organizational purposes, then I recommend the Blackberry Bold. If it is for fun and browsing, I recommend the iPhone. The choice is yours. Both gadgets are very capable of performing every task, but their design and approach to these tasks is significantly different, and you are the one to make the call – Blackberry Bold or iPhone.

I hope you found this gadget review useful, and I welcome comments or discussions on the Blackberry Bold or the iPhone. Both gadgets are fantastic pieces of technology, however, as this review outlines, the ultimate target audience is different.

Stay tuned for more reviews such as this “Gadget Review: Blackberry Bold vs iPhone 3GS”, from the Gadget World.

Apple iPhone 3G S Review

Apple iPhone 3G S is finally here. Basically, the phone is so much alike with the standard iPhone 3G. However, it is the inside that counts. You may say that the housing is same but the furniture is different complete with a renovation to make the house better. Yes, it is an overhaul on the inside but the outside remains the same.

The most significant change that you will realize in times to come is the Speed. Now, you might be wondering why the phone is called iPhone 3G S. The ‘S’ means speed. So, this new phone is all about speed. Check out the wonderful CPU. At 600 MHz, it is definitely faster than the standard iPhone 3G which is currently at 412 MHz. Apart from that, the RAM is said to be upgraded to 256MB which is double the standard phone. 

You can get the phone with 16GB or 32GB storage. If you need more storage, go for 32GB. This new version is definitely picking up on popularity as it is much easier to use and the applications load faster than before. There is a statement from Apple that said the loading is twice as fast as before although no one can be sure of that. Still, you will be able to sense the change. 

Now you can play many games without having to worry about the loading time. I am sure there is a significant amount of users who love to play games such as Resident Evil: Degeneration. Compare to the standard phone, this new iPhone is definitely hard to beat in terms of speed. There are many other games waiting for you so be sure to check them out as well if you have got the new phone. 

The 480 x 320 display is nothing different but one thing you should know is that Apple is coming up with new technology that is going to make you very happy. Imagine having to constantly wipe the screen from any smudges, this time around, you just need to swipe swiftly at the side of your pants and voila, everything is gone. The technology is that the new iPhone is resistant against smudges and dirt. This is why you should love the phone. Unlike other phones that need a few swipes, you can clean up the whole screen with just one swipe. 

The camera is being upgraded from 2MP to 3MP, which is not that impressive but still this is good enough for most of us. The software is excellent too as it is powered by iPhone OS 3.0. Apple boasts many great features and upgrades for the OS so you can expect great run on the iPhone 3G S. Last but not least, let us not forget about the ‘copy and paste’ feature that is being left out many times. This time however, you get to use the feature without any problems at all. There is a compass to boast about but unless if you are going for a hike or something, the compass doesn’t do much at all. Google Maps on the other hand seems rather accurate and useful for most of us. 

Overall, this is an excellent phone and of course, if you want to get a piece of this, make sure you either have enough money to buy it, or get ready to subscribe to any contracts that seems appealing and suitable for you. Since this phone is new on the block, the pricing is rather high but after a few months, the pricing might be reduced depending on the market and the popularity. Still, it is worth the money you pay. 

There’s no question that the CECT line of iPhone clones were a runaway success. That’s because not only did CECT convincingly copy Apple’s most popular features, it greatly improved upon them. The manufacturer added an additional sim slot to make the phones dual sim, allowing consumers to have two phone numbers or plans on one phone. They also made the battery removable so you don’t have to run down to the dealer every time the battery dies. Additionally, they added more surround sound speakers. The A88 has all of these bonus features and has added two more: shake and tilt control. This means if you want to change any media (songs, video, photos, or wallpaper) you just shake the phone. There’s no scrolling or looking down. Additionally, if you want to bring the images to wide screen, you just tilt the phone.

Additional Features: The A88 has everything you would expect from a clone. Here is a very quick list of the most popular features.: Bluetooth, a 3.2 inch finger touch screen, networking support (WAP 2.0, GPRS (class 10)), MP3/MP4 players, a 1.3 mega pixel camera, a video recorder, fully functional smart phone capabilities, web browsing and email, 256 MB internal memory, with an expandable capability of 2GB more. No driver or software is required with this phone. It will automatically read your sim card and works on most GSM networks.

Appearance: This phone looks very similar to the iPhone, but it does have a small keyboard/scroll button on the bottom of the phone and it includes a stylus. It has the silver casing on the back with black on the front. There is no logo or writing on the back of the phone and most people prefer this.

Functioning And Quality: This is a very high performing cell phone. I have never found any bugs or problems with it. It is quick and efficient. The video and music quality, as well as the reception, are excellent. The shake and tilt control is very useful and makes this phone very user friendly.

Pricing: This model starts at about $120, but can vary greatly depending on where you get it. This seems a very fair price considering all of the innovative features packed into this tiny phone.

You can download free iPhone theme from many different sites. There are even iPhone themes available for other makes of cell phone, and even as WordPress themes for websites. If you want to know where to get themes for your Iphone, check out the rest of this article.

Following on the huge success of the Apple iPod, which shows no sign of slowing down, Apple has now launched the iPhone, giving users the option of carrying just one light machine around with them to use as both a cell phone and a music storage system.

The Apple iPhone is a certainty to carry on the phenomenal success of Apple’s iPod. This is a highly desirable piece of hardware. Not everyone is in a position, for various technical and financial reasons, to avail themselves of it, and for that reason it is good news that there are themes available for other machines. All of the major names are included in this, such Nokia and Motorola. The Blackberry, which has far greater capabilities than the average cell phone, also has iPhone themes that can be used with it.

You can also download free iPhone theme for the iPhone itself! If you are not happy with the default, or just feel like a change, you can get something called a “Hack Toolkit”, which will allow you to get into your Apple iPhone, and change the theme. The new themes themselves are downloadable from many different sites on the internet, most of which are funded by advertising, and voluntary donations.

The main problem to watch out for when downloading themes, or indeed anything else, from the internet, is the trustworthiness of the site. Downloading themes from sites which offer them is a lot safer than downloading pirated software, movies or music from a P2P site. These downloads are totally legal. You should still exercise due care, though, as unscrupulous site owners can infect your machine with viruses and trojan horses, in an attempt to gain a “back door” into your machine. If you do download anything from the net, make sure that you scan it with anti virus software. Most machines will come with this software built in, but if yours doesn’t have it, or it has expired, it is possible to get free anti virus software, provided your machine is not used commercially.

Taking this precaution will allow you to safely download free iPhone theme. Check out the links below to see the most popular download sites.
