There's only so little features left between iPhone and a smartphone:

SOFTWARE:

Web:
No multi-tab browsing
No text reflow
No real web experience, most sites identify it as a phone
No saving web pages for offline viewing (missing apps? buy them!)
No streaming audio/video support (missing apps? buy them!)
No Flash
Slow JavaScript interpreter
No disabling of JavaScript
No instant messaging (missing apps? buy them!)
No real push e-mail (it syncs from time to time draining a lot of power)
HTML attachment issues

File management:
No downloading content for offline playback except through iTunes
No accessing iPhone's folders by any means
No Flash or Java native application support
No DivX, XviD, FLV native video support (missing apps? buy them!)
No ZIP or RAR support (missing apps? buy them!)
No real office suite (missing apps? buy them!)
Clumsy searching for both files and in-text (missing apps? buy them!)

Connectivity:
No videocall
No VoIP support for Wi-Fi
No tethering support/must pay extra to the carrier
MMS shows the wrong sender number http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/14/i...r-number-poll/
A2DP (BT stereo) lags on videos (power-hungry cpu, useless!)
AVRCP Bluetooth Profile - only some headsets work
No supported services when pairing with MacBook
No BT file sharing (BT almost useless!)

Misc:
No TO-DO app (missing apps? buy them!)
No true multitasking support (power-hungry cpu, useless!)
No video recording above VGA (power-hungry cpu, useless!)
No apps developed for 3GS power-hungry HW, you might aswell use 3G (power-hungry cpu, useless!)
iTunes treats free applications like purchases + FairPlay DRM wrapping


HARDWARE:

Screen:
No precision at all on the touchscreen
No adjusting for parallax (finger/screen offset)
No feedback whatsoever
163 pixels per inch (decent monitors today have at least 200ppi & you're not holding them as close as a phone)
Small resolution (320x480), stretched too much (3.5"), sometimes looks pixelized
Dim in sunlight: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3171/...f404979442.jpg

Power:
Not enough (~1200MAX) mAh - smallest battery from it's cpu range/estimated value might be less
No full day coverage with one charge
No OS power optimization
No USB charging without adapter
No safety garment for the battery (swelling and cracking the screen from the inside reported) http://www.betanews.com/article/Appl...lem/1251474518
No warranty for the above

Connectivity:
No DLNA
No HSCSD
Slow HSDPA speed
Strong frequency interference - poor audio - poor GSM/GPS signal
Very high SAR value 1.4W/kg (above 1.6 subjects to risk of cancer)
Non-standard headset jack (although it looks like one)
Non-standard connectivity forces you to use overpriced accessories
No IR

Storage:
No Micro-SD slot
Not addressable as USB storage
256 SDRAM; why Intel? it's slow & they are far from other flash memory manufacturers.

Media/camera:
No stereo speakers /weak speakerphone and voicemail playback
No radio
No FM transmitter
No hi-res camera sensor (less DPI than other 3mp phones); focus distance limited; no exposure control
No ability to use 3RD party OCR on taken pictures
No front camera
No light sensor
No flash

Design:
No sim ejecting without special key
No removable battery (hard reset required if it gets stuck and you have to be a service engineer to reach the battery http://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iPhone-3GS/817/2%29)
No typing on a table; it wobbles
No kick-stand/standing on it's own for timed/group photo
No hot swappable or expandable memory
Not built by apple themselves

As you can see iPhone is only missing some unnecessary features that only the haters would complain of!


Yes! Well done Apple! Well done Steve Jobs!

Buy iPhone, it's the best,
Be a sheep, just like the rest!
