Would it be okay for me to keep my iPhone 3GS?
I know some of you may scoff at this lol but I love my iphone 3gs, it works well for me and it is still going strong for the couple of years that I've had it. Because Apple isn't selling it anymore and the egs won't get IOS 7, is it still okay to keep? I really don't like the other iphones to be honest:/
Added (1). I'm worried about it becoming obsolete.
No its fine and many still use 3GS. The only thing you may have an issue with is if you run alot of high end gaming apps or things like that since the hardware is a little outdated.
Sounds like you already got the answer yourself! Why spend more money on something you don't need and don't like? Keep the 3GS, and replace it in the future, when it's dead and useless ;-)
I have the 3GS and like you think it's a great phone, it has never let me down and still breezes through any task that I ask of it, it's reliable and refined… I'm not that keen on the newer iPhones either…
… The only problem that you would have when you don't update to the latest iOS is that some Apps might not be 'compatible' and you won't be able to 'purchase' them…
… I don't get why they constantly need to 'update' smartphone technology, I reckon the 3GS was 'close to perfection', it's destined to become 'a classic'…
Define Obsolete!
iPhone (original ones) still work
Phones from 10, 15, 20 years ago still work…
If your phone does what you need it to do - it will keep doing it.
nothing turns the phones 'off' or stops them working
except when they go faulty or their batteries stop recharging (which they eventually do) - which is the issue with apple phones, as they are sealed inside and the user can't change them. Though the apple store can - it may however be cheaper to buy a refurbished ("as new") Phone 4S or even 5 etc by that time!
- Would it be okay to put logos of other companies in without permission in my art? I'm joining this nationwide art competition in my country with the theme of "consumerism." I'm planning on putting an iPhone on my artwork but instead it will say iDiot. Will designing it in a slightly altered way avoid lawsuits? Do you think the competition will reject my entry if they saw a representation of the iPhone? It will not be the main object in my piece, just a little accessory. Like really small.
- Would it be okay to put a Vodafone SIM card into a new Iphone X? I'm thinking about buying a sim free Iphone x then putting my current vodafone sim card into it. Would this cause any problems or eould it be okay? Id have to buy a new SIM card contract the year after, but I don't mind having to do that.
- Why does my iphone 3gs for tmobile keep losing signal? I have a 3gs unlocked and jailbroken iphone and it keeps loosing signal randomly, i can't send or receive calls or messages and it will randomly go off. Is it possible i need to jailbreak it again? And at times i turn on airplane mode then off and i'll recover signal for a couple of moments and i've tried turning it on and off as well as taking out the sim card, problem has been on going for 3 days -thanks
- Should i keep my iPhone 3GS or get a HTC? I want more freedom with my device, and i currently have an iPhone 3GS. The locks on an apple iPhone annoy me to hell! And with android i know you can gain almost full control over your device, but apparently htc's arent as reliable? I don't know what to do!
