No video-recording support
No built-in voice dialing
Limited Bluetooth functionality
No support for text selection

Copy and paste
Apple may have rectified the recessing 3.5mm headphone socket with a standard jack
So you can plug in some decent cans
But they ignored our pleas for a better camera. Why change the rest then stick with the two-megapixel camera
Eh Apple?
Can’t render Flash content
No video recording or MMS
Poor battery life
Battery life typically smartphone-poor GPS functionality not quite there yet Texting still needs work Camera remains poor
Battery life worse than predecessor
Camera still lags way behind rivals
Plastic case feels less solid
Downloading time
Poor battery life with 3G switched on
Doesnt play Flash
Camera could be better/ no video
No copy paste possibility
Bluetooth flexibility
Still limited to O2
Some will be disappointed that the camera hasn't been improved
Will undoubtedly lose some chicappeal as it becomes inevitably ubiquitous
