There all over eBay. "have the iPhone 4 at your door on 25th June" some are £895 some are over £1k. Why dont people just walk intoi the shop ?

So how scratch resistant is the glass going to be on this thing as the last thing I want to do is cover such a nice looking phone with a horrible cover!!

Pretty sure screen protectors for front and rear will start appearing soon enough!
 
Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

Has anyone rung up o2 to see what the crack is for someone who is eligable for an upgrade on their current iPhone?

If it's anything like the current iPhone's front, it'll be very difficult to scratch.

They said they would release the details soon enough. So doubt they will tell you over the phone anything they havent released officially.

Why are you even getting an iPhone?

Ease of use, great UI, ability to easily check my emails, get online if I need to. CS when I'm bored and not at home... need I go on? iPhone aren't just about removing the mp3 player from your pocket.

I was wondering about this, hopefully its tough as f**k, but on the bright side, being glass, if you do scratch it, I think you could sand it back with some fine paper and buff it back up! (You'd have to be a brave man though)

TBH I see my having screen covers on back and front... lol

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

Watch the video on Apples site. They explain about the glass.
You couldn't sand it back as it has some uber coating on it.
And I really cant see how you would damage it tbh?
 
Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)


Nice one, cheers. I've signed up to receive emails with updates.

Out of interest, how much is a used iPhone 3G 8GB with everything in the box and some very light scratches to the back worth on the likes of the bay? With o2 offering £172.50, it's tempting since it's so easy compared to listing it.

I'll pass I think..

I think black on black or White on white will look ok.

Mine will have front and rear screen protector things and probs a black one of those, wish there was a red one.

I wont be getting one. No need for it other than having the colour (if you want it).

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

I think the colour makes it look more of a chavy phone tbh.

I think I will just get the black one with a black casing.

Apple's own website describe the glass as:

All the breakthrough technology in iPhone 4 is situated between two glossy panels of aluminosilicate glass — the same type of glass used in the windshields of helicopters and high-speed trains. Chemically strengthened to be 20 times stiffer and 30 times harder than plastic, the glass is ultradurable and more scratch resistant than ever.

lol @ helicopters and high speed trains, I'll believe it when I see it. My 3G is covered in chips and scratches.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

They developed a new coating for the 3GS, and now use a different material altogether. You cant compare the 3G and 4 screen LOL

how the hell do you scratch an iphone front screen?

i can't understand people who even use screen protectors, its pointless, the screen is near impossible to scratch, i've had a touch for 3 years and an iphone for 1 and neither have the slightest scratch on them, how the f**k do people manage to scratch them?

screen protectors ruin the screen, totally pointless. Paying all that money for an amazing screen and then covering it with some 5p jobbie.

Quick question re facetime video chat... this works over wifi only, rite? can you have a facetime chat with just anybody like do a search for other people online? or do they have to be in your contacts and have an iPhone also?

if you get me?

I've never been so gutted to be going away on hoilday! I'm at my parents from June 20th until July 1st so will miss the launch day. Rubbish!

Does anybody on here know how 'o2 Open' works?

I'm work for CFS so am eligible for the promotion, but can't find any info on it. The o2 website talks about the new terms and conditions, but doesn't actually tell you what discounts you get.

I wonder if I'll be able to get discount on the new iPhone, or will I have to wait 6 months or so?

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

I could see it bein a sperate app if you could be in touch with randoms with vid chat...

but if only to your contacts then there would be no point to seperate it.

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

Its obviously guna be an option from the menu once a call has been activated. According to Apples site:

All you have to do is tap a button.

oh trust me its not that hard to scratch, yeah fine if it lives in your pocket and only comes out at the pub, but mine gets used and abiuse, its covered in paint, primer, chipped and scratched to fook. its pretty easy to scratch imo so hopefully the new one will be a little more hardcore

Do you keep yours in some homo cloth pouch in your pocket? they get surface scratches ridiculously easily... not ness the heavy deep ones but mine had the light surface ones within about 48hrs.

ANYWAY... it looks ok.. I'll get one obviously... but a bit disappointed that they haven't made it any bigger storage wise? I assume there would be a 64gb this time? My 32gb is full. :(

Er, no, the screen is nearly impossible to scratch, on the 3GS at least, not a single hairline scratch and gets constantly all day every day.

Don't use a 'pouch', or a screen protector, there is no need.

People who are scratching them really must not look after stuff, I've not been over protective of mine.

What the hell, covered in paint, primer and scratched/chipped, don't you work for Audi on reception?

Is this a 3G or an s?

Re: iPhone 4/iOS4 Info (Read this before starting more threads)

I can confirm that any contact with sand will put some nice scratches in the 3G glass. I've had my 3G for well over a year, it's been around the world, lived in a backpack, and the only thing that's really scratched it has been sand.

The back however is a different story, it's by no means knackered [i look after my stuff, but refuse to use a case] but there's plenty of scratches on the back.

Compared to other "scratchproof" phones I've owned, the iPhone has been head and shoulders above the rest.

LOL @ DK, it's not 'nearly impossible' at all, give me your phone for a minute and I'll show you... it's difficult, but nothing like impossible.

Doubt it if you only touch once. Opening an app, selecting a contact, starting a video call cant be done with one touch.
It'l be an option to "open video" (or something) once in a phone call on this menu:
