subject: Lets Crack The Myth About Hiphone 3g [print this page] The excitement that was generated when the original HiPhone i32 came out seems like an incredibly long time ago, although it really wasn't. I think it seems long in terms of time because so much has been improved with the iPhone clones between now and then. Still, the original HiPhone i32 was really innovative for it's time. It was one of the first clones to introduce the "shake and tilt" feature (where you can advance the phone by shaking it.) And, it was one of the first that had a decent finger touch interface. It allowed you to scroll through the phone and edit photos using only your fingers. So, now that the new Hiphone 3G Phone has started to become available, a lot of attention and doubts wanting to know just what is different about it arise continulally.
Here comes some significantly instructive information to crack the new Touch Screen Hiphone.
What's Been Added: Java, 4 Bands, A Sleeker Size, And More Memory: There were some grumblings about the original i32. It was only tri band. It was a bit fat and bulky. And, it could only accommodate 2GB of memory. This 3rd generation model had rounded edges so it looks more like the iPhone and the housing is more slick. Java has also been added so that you can add a lot more games, applications, and downloads, including Word and PowerPoint.
Additionally, this third generation model can now hold up to 16GB of memory. The clone has been waiting for this capability for a long time. And, this one isn't so big and heavy. It's 11.5 X 6 X 1.2 centimeters. It still has the one button at the bottom and the minimalist fat touch screen, but it's a more stream lined phone. The old phone was only a tri band. This one includes all 4 bands.
It can be used with any GSM sim card, including those that are prepaid. Common networks that this phone is used with is T Mobile, Fido, Rogers, and AT&T. It now includes the ability to flip the screens on the phone like turning the pages of a book.
The Icons Can Be Customized And Moved Around: Another thing that people like about this Cheap Mobile Phone is that there are more icons. You can go with the typical standard iPhone welcome page or you can customize it to include those that you use the most, only where you want them. You can touch an icon and drag it exactly where you want it. And, there are now icons for any application on the phone. Basically, you can create an icon / short cut to anything that you use the most, including Face book, stock reports, photos, notes, documents, videos, and music. People sometimes ask me what is the difference between this phone and the i9. The icons are most definitely the main one.
What's Still There: There was a lot to like about the i32 and all of the good features are still there. Shake and tilt remains as does the flow touch interface. The HiPhone 3G is still dual sim. It still has FM radio, MP3 / MP4 players, Bluetooth, MMS, SMS, email, web browsing (WAP 2.0). There is now video and voice recording, as well as voice and handwriting recognition. The camera has been upgraded a bit too.
Price / Cost: The price on this HiPhone 3G is not that much more than the old model, especially when it first came out. It's tough to find the older i32's, but if you could, you'd pay around $100 or less. The new HiPhone 3G ersion only runs about $50 more than that, which is not too bad, considering all of the upgrades.
