iphone 3gs 8gb

[blade77]

Thinking of buying this phone, o2 is doing it for £21/ 24months so its in my budget.
Any one have one - Just wondering is the camera usable and do I need any extras like screen protectors etc?

For the early models i.e. 3G and 3GS it is recommended to have the screen protectors and a case. The phone scratches fairly easy, both sides, and then doesnt look as good. Also if you want to sell it on after words, its always easier to sell a phone in good condition.
I think the 3GS has a 3 mega pixel. It takes ok shots from what ive seen.

I have the 3g one that im considering selling but i like it too much lol, it has a 3mp camera which is seem pretty good enough.

I like the 3gs much more than the 4. My 32Gb 3GS does everything I want, and does it very well. As for the camera, well its a camera on a phone and TBH there are phones with much better camera's. But it is a great phone and the pictures and video are reasonably good.

NB the 3gs runs the Iphone 4 Operating system - download via Itunes.

Thanks guys it seems a decent little phone - as long as it takes a useable photo I will be happy.I kad a sony ericson K800i a few years back with a 3.2 camera that was great, if the iphone 3 mp is as good I will be content.
I have been on youtube looking at reviews of aps for sat nav on it - the tomtom and copilot live both look good - co-pilot is less than £30. Will save me having to buy a seperate satnav now :)

Happy days, Just ordered and should be here tomorrow.
I dont have a wifi phone at the mo but I take it that this will auto connect to my wireless router at home or any wifi hotspot and allow me to use the net without using up my o2 data allowance?
Now I`m off to buy a case and screen protector and a car cradle and charger. :)

Yea if you go to settitngs > network and click the button to on this will automatically connect to available networks.

I'm sure in order to use wifi other than your own it will cost a subscription. BT have free wifi hotspots, but only when you use them at home as your internet service provider. Otherwise you'll be using your allowance while using the o/edge/3G connections. In the home you can connect to your wireless and correct - it won't touch your allowance.

If your with O2 then you can connect to any of the cloud networks & bt openzone & it's free for you. These are generally in shopping centres & restaurants (including mcdonalds). If your with any other network you get a data allowance for using on bt openzone networks but would have to pay for any others.
