Pro's
The iPhone 3GS is even more a dream to use than previous iPhones. It's much faster to use when using applications. The 3G download speeds are very fast. The video capture is excellent - 30 frames per second so it's very smooth. The other 3GS exclusive features I haven't tried yet, such as the voice activated commands and the voice memo.

Con's
Most of the big improvements come from the iPhone 3.0 software which is also available on the iPhone 3G.

The battery life is better but still too short. I have to charge my 3GS at least once a day if I want to listen to music as well as make calls and surf the web. The biggest dissappointment for me was the lack of distinction in design to the 3G. I was hoping for an OLED display and a fresh design. After shelling out loads of cash and spending 3 hours in Carphone I want people to easily notice that I have the latest iPhone but to the naked eye it looks the same as the common old 3G. My posing potential is severely reduced.

Overall
The iPhone continues to be the best phone on the market. 1st generation or non-iPhone users should definitely buy one. iPhone 3G users may want to wait until a more revolutionary product comes out next year.
