  • The iPhone 3GS finally adds common cell phone features like multimedia messaging, video recording, and voice dialing. It runs faster; its promised battery life is longer; and the multimedia quality continues to shine.

  • The iPhone 3GS doesnt make the same grand leap that the iPhone 3G made from the first-generation model, but the latest Apple handset is still a compelling upgrade for some users. The iPhone 3GS is faster and we appreciate the new features and extended...

  • At the end of the day, the Apple iPhone 3GS was easily the most impressive item that we had the chance of reviewing in 2009 and it's definitely a contender for product of the year. Apple have taken things that were once the domain of computers and GPS ...
