As I said just my personal opinion, I really doubt that when it comes to releasing the hardware, the upgrade is worthy the pricetag, if anything just the apple logo alone makes it worth £200. I mean kudos to Steve Jobs for stunning the masses into purchasing every upgrade that comes out despite the somewhat sublime differences. The 1st/maybe 2nd gen are what's really new additions to the market, anything else does not justify such a high price tag, as again, my opinion.


In the US they are roughly the same price as the other high end phones. I have an android phone with 2.3 but it still has many bugs, deficiencies and the apps are very inconsistent working, plus there is no netflix. The apps are just plain better on the iPhone in most cases, consistent and easier to setup.

In UK, On amazon.uk, the difference between an iPhone 4G and Galaxy S in a region of £200, that's about $300.

I don't really follow the phone industry in such a detail as to know the latest of the Android releases, I am quite satisfied with my Xperia, just finding it ludicrous that people are selling their 3G for around £200 and adding £200, to put it in perspective they're selling it for $300 and adding the same value on top to get the somewhat little bit different version of the same phone, after all, phone is there to make calls, maybe an ocassional browse through the web, albeit now they're being effectively converted into handheld entertainment devices.
