Looks pretty amazing but I prefer the black one. I also live in the UK. But got to say that is cheap!

What's that speaker thing at the top near camera? My black iPhone 4 only has only the one speaker there. [editline]27th April 2011[/editline] [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/hero_20110425.jpg[/img]

Ambient light sensor? Probably can't see it against the black one.

It's the ambient light sensor. If you look at the black iPhone in the sun, you'll see it.

Looks pretty swish, I'll have to stick with my black one for now

why cant they use the fromt camera for the light sensor?

Is it to lock the touch screen for when you're on a call?

[QUOTE=meppers;29489084]why cant they use the fromt camera for the light sensor?[/QUOTE] It requires more processing power to calculate the ambient light, why take an average from a few milion pixels rather than getting one result from one sensor.

Not as bad as I expected. They've just pointed out that on the website that they've still got it listed as the same thickness, Apple might want to change that quickly :ohdear:

I wish I could switch my black one for white. I have no scratches at all, not even a smudge on mine since I got it back in June.

lol so now that 4 different iphone 4 variants and each require their own case type in most cases

My sister just bought a white iPhone yesterday. The camera doesn't work, the shutter won't open for any apps, she's gonna return it today.

Recently in my opinion of the iPhone 4 they seem to of failed a bit in the quality of their products. Hope they pick their selves up this year.

[QUOTE=Raptor;29672132]What do you not like about it?[/QUOTE] I have one and as a phone, it truly is quite terrible. At everything else, it's astounding.

[QUOTE=M24;29672814]I have one and as a phone, it truly is quite terrible. At everything else, it's astounding.[/QUOTE] Really? I think its pretty good. Texting HUD is great. And I've never had a problem with dropped calls

[QUOTE=d_cover;29644583]As much as I love Apple products. Recently in my opinion of the iPhone 4 they seem to of failed a bit in the quality of their products. Hope they pick their selves up this year.[/QUOTE] It is a huge improvement over the iPhone 3GS, besides the phone being made of "all glass".

[QUOTE=Raptor;29678770]Really? I think its pretty good. Texting HUD is great. And I've never had a problem with dropped calls[/QUOTE] Texting is good, I agree. But I always get dropped calls, unlike any other phone i've had.

The iPhone 4 is great in my opinion, I used to have a walkman phone before. Theres only one problem with it, you can't decline calls when you're on the lockscreen!

[QUOTE=Raptor;29672132]What do you not like about it?[/QUOTE] I have to say I love my iPhone 4 but what I've heard from other users they aren't bringing out the quality I received with mine. Such as signal when they brought out the iphone 4 most people couldn't get decent signal. I love the design it looks great but they did say the glass is shatter proof. Before I bought mine I had to get a case quickly. Since it simply isn't. People are already experiencing issues with the white iPhone. Come on it's a hpone in a different colour more or less it's hardly a new generation. But all in all I still like Apples products as long as the ones I have work. The only thing is I wait a year till I purchase the newer products so all the bugs are phased out.
