Is the iPhone 3g a good phone? - 1

I'm thinking about getting a second hand iPhone 3g off my friend for 50euro. Is it a good idea to get it, or should I get an android phone? And can you get snapchat on it? Even though it has no front facing camera?

Its as good as iphone 4 or iphone 5, i will get a lot of thumbs down as a lot of people have spent a lot of money on them phones, but there's not much difference apart from weight of phone and shape of phone, the apps or nearly the same the screen the exact same and the battery in all of the iphones die after one day, also all iphones break really easy espicially the screens.

The only reason that this phone is currently so unpopular is because after a while, Apple cuts their old products off and leaves them in the dust because they no longer allow you to update your software to the newest which soon will be iOS7, the 3GS Is still stuck on iOS5 due to not being able to update.

This means that you won't be able to download the newest apps on the app store and even if you do, you may not be able to run them to their full potential.

You can JailBreak the device so that you can force the new software onto the phone but unless you have a technical knowledge, you may find that hard.

As for the snapchat? Yes, you may still be able to download it, but it may not work too well.

Honestly, I would go for an android or some other device, Kind regards.

No, as it is old, discontinued and I think they are ending app store support for it.
