Apple iPhone 3G S Unboxing
We know, we know. This isn’t like last year when we were the first to have an iPhone 3G, but come on, we’re the first to have one that’s not supposed to have one yet. That’s got to count for something? Since the phone isn’t activated at the moment, there’s not much to show besides some glamor shots. So click on over to the gallery to get your fill of iPhone 3G S greatness, my OS X-loving friends.

So much better than anything on verizon
Posted from BGR Mobile (iPhone) at: Dayton United States
so… What do we see here exactly? Nothing changed on the outside and the box/accessories look the same, too. Why do we need this post?
Lets see some 3.0 shots when you guys get a chance. Thx
Hey BG, whats up with the new glass there using. Tell us, is it smudge free like Apple says?
@Sean
Honestly from the short period of time I’ve messed with it, it looks like a huge improvement without having a totally different surface feel. But the real test is after some extended use. Will report back!
Love the BGR exclusivity, but Engadget had it since yesterday. They even Brought it to the Late Show with JF!. Still, you guys always get the latest scoops!
Holding offfff til 2010 because an actual “morphing-glass-gamepad-keyboard-media control ” slide-out iPhone sounds pretty cool!
Interested in what you have to say BG.
So far nothing has motivated me for the upgrade yet.
BG, can you try the video feature and report back in what format it records. .mp4 or .3gp ?
how hard would it be to photoshop an “S” and “32GB”…its the same damn external phone…
Yipee
whats with making all that fcc number jumbo crap all in the open? looked better when you couldn’t see it
If you don’t have the compass on the screen, how will all the other kids at school know you have the new one? U gotta be kewl!!!
Cool.. Thanks BG
We received ours in today. Could tell by the box you used a store’s demo model. Definitely feels slightly heavier than the last 3G which is a good thing & noticed the apps run very smooth. I’m looking forward to having mine tmorrow.
lololololOLOLOLOlolololoLOLOLOLOlolololOLOLOL
This Phone Is The Exact Same As All The Other Iphones
LololoLOLololoLOLOLolololOLOLOLolololOLOLOLOL
After a hands on I can say although it’s a LOT like the 3G, it is better. Camera is nice. Video is VERY nice. Clear as hell and responsive. The compass works in google maps. There is zero lag time when scrolling web pages no matter how fast (checkerboarding while the page loads up).
Side by side the 3GS loaded web pages faster somehow, even though our network runs about 1.5Mbit in our area.
Voice Command…. not so sure on that one. “play artist Kanye West” returns “playing artist: bob dillon”. “play artist bob dillon” returns “playing some whack ass artist you don’ know about”. Verdict still out on that.
Glass still smudged plenty. Phone was responsive as hell though, you can feel a difference in the performance. Worth the extra 100 bucks.
Is it the EXACT same size and external body as the 3G for cases etc?
“bob dillon”–further evidence it’s for school kids
once you get it activated, can you comment on whether reception has improved from the original 3g model?
And this was worthy of a post for what reason?
This phone looks exactly like the last…so seriously what was the purpose of this post?
Oh I know why…you just wanted to show everyone you have an IPhone 3G S first…
***yawwwnnnnn***
Nobody will be safe on the streets now. With so many ppl carrying a camcorder in their pockets.
A camcorder? WHAT? A phone with a video camera?!?! Who would ever think of such a thing!? My god, it’s a miracle of modern technology!
BGR, we know you’re jumping for joy like a little school girl, but I don’t see how this post is news worthy. This site has been inflated with a lot of redundant Iphone 3GS news lately. I think BGR markets Apple products more than Apple lately.. lol
dude BGR don’t front you didnt have it first!!!! Cnet was dropping that shit early this morning with speed testes against the pre live on prizefight. shit loads of top executives have been reviewing it and playing with for a few days come on dude.
