The movement that iPhone came into market brought a technical revolution in the cell phone
market. People found some imperfections while loving it. So based on the weakness of iPhone,
Apple Inc. launched the second generation of iPhone, iPhone 3G in 9th June, 2008 which had
been improved in many parts. So we will make a comparison of the two generations to see what
had been changed in iPhone 3G.
1. Outlines.
As we can see from the pictures that the colors of iPhone is part black and part white. But iPhone
3G is totally black or totally white. The covering of iPhone was metal while the 3G's was plastic so
the 3G is a little lighter than iPhone. And about the size of two cell phones, 3G is a little bigger
than iPhone which is hard to been found by eyes.
2. Main Body
Comparing with iPhone, iPhone 3G took lessons from the design of MacBook Air, so the arc on
the back of cell phone made the phone looks much more beautiful. The other point was that the
headphone connector that was a big problem in the past Apple products was improved. The 3.5
mm headphone jack was designed on the side of the cell phone and it makes every kind of
headphones possible to be applied.
3. Networks
The difference of networks was most obvious difference of the two cell phones. iPhone did not
support the 3G networks that made it a target to be criticized by the medias. This time, iPhone 3G
had stepped up to 3.5G level and support WCDMA/HSDPA networks. According to Jobs' saying
the speed is much faster than Nokia N95.
4. Built-in functions
Another advantage of iPhone 3G was that GPS module was added which supports the mobile
navigation and location search. The camera was the same as iPhone, but for the GPS, it could
provide the geographic grid of the pictures. The cell phone could record the latitude, longitude and
altitude of the shooting locations. And the picture element per inch (ppi) of iPhone 3G increased to
163 ppi from 160 ppi of iPhone without any improvement of the screen and distinguishability.
5. Battery
The battery of iPhone 3G was still designed as fixed as iPhone. The standby time and speaking
time of iPhone 3G had increased much by comparing with iPhone. The speaking time in 2 G
networks increased from 8 hours to 10 hours and the standby time increased from 250 hours to
300 hours. But the online time, music and video playing time did not changed comparing from the
past. Besides, there is a tool in the sales package of iPhone 3G to help the customers take out the
SIM card easily.
6. Software
The improvement of iPhone 3G in software was effective. It could support many languages,
Chinese, Japanese, Korean and other Asian languages. And it support gesture recognition. The
iPhone 2.0 firmware could support AppStore software store that the developer all over the world
could discharge by free or sell iPhone software through the store.
7. Price
The last difference that the customers could experience themselves was the price of the two cell
phones. iPhone 3G was only 199 dollars when it first come into the market. So it was cheaper than
iPhone.
All these differences put together, we could find the difference of iPhone and iPhone 3G clearly.
But in all they are cell phones, though they have differences, but they would not change very
much. They are Apple's cell phones.
