The iPhone 3G is a smartphone that was designed and marketed by Apple Inc. It is the second generation of iPhone, and was introduced on June 9, 2008 at the WWDC 2008 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, United States.
The iPhone 3G was internally similar to its predecessor, but included several new hardware features, such as Assisted GPS, 3G data and tri-band UMTS/HSDPA. The device also benefited from software improvements introduced with iPhone OS 2.0, which was launched at the same time. As well as other features (including Push email and turn-by-turn navigation), this new operating system introduced the App Store—Apple's new distribution platform for third-party applications.[12]]
On July 11,2008, Apple released the iPhone 3G across twenty-two countries in two storage
options, 8GB and 16GB. The 16GB model was available in either in white or black.
Following the release of the successor iPhone 3GS model one year later , the iPhone 3G
remained on sale but became Apple's Budget phone offer, with its price cut in half. This $99
iPhone 3G was only available in black and with 8GB of storage, but came bundled with the
iPhone OS 3.0 Software. On June 7, 2010, the iPhone 3G was discontinued, and placed as
Apple's budget phone by an 8 GB iPhone 3GS selling for the same price of $99.
2G vs 3G
There are simple reasons why the iPhone 3G is better than the 2G
Apple has eliminated so many annoying little hang-ups that you might run into when using the
old one. The GPS pinpoints to meters instead of blocks. the 3G connection slashes
web loading times by minutes to seconds. The most rounded case feels nice in the hand. Most
importantly the new software polishes the OS and opens the phone up to nearly unlimited
capabilities through the countless programs that are already being written by the brilliant
legions of faithful developers.
