Our iPhone 3G review is now totally complete, with the battery tests updated and final. So what do we think of Apple's update to its iconic phone? We feel it's an upgrade over the previous iPhone almost across the board. This is reflected in our ratings, where the iPhone 3G ranks ten spots higher than the original iPhone with improvements like third party applications, 3G, GPS, improved audio and Exchange support pushing it up. It should be mentioned, however, that many of the software improvements are also available on the original iPhone. This makes the phone less of an upgrade for existing iPhone owners, but it does make it a worthy pick up for those who were waiting for the second generation of the iPhone. It's still missing some basic features like MMS, Video recording and copy & paste; the camera has actually taken a step backward. But these deficits are more than made up for by other upgrades.
So we've been running battery tests non-stop since the iPhone was released on Friday and we've been getting some consistent results and some vexing ones. We're finally comfortable with the battery results we got for talk time, we'll be using our best result of five hours fifty minutes for the iPhone 3G's score. We also ran two other tests that were within half an hour, five hours thirty-nine minutes and five hours twenty-two minutes respectively. All of these results are better than Apple's stated talk time of five hours and are very good for a 3G device, where the network is very power hungry.
It's worth noting, however, that talk time may be the least of the factors impacting your battery life on the iPhone 3G. That display seems to be a power hog, GPS is another and of course data transfer and music playback will impact it as well. Still, it's good to see that the iPhone 3G didn't totally tank this test given the concerns about battery life that have been voiced.

Following on from our tests on the new iPhone 3G yesterday, Apple has confirmed that the display on the new phone is warmer, and that this was a deliberate decision. Macworld quotes Apple’s senior director of iPhone product marketing Bob Borchers as saying that they deliberately tweaked the new display to be warmer. “We moved the white point in order to make [the display feel] more natural” they quoted Borchers as saying, who also explained that the change would make photos look more attractive. Borchers also did not rule out the possibility of an update that might allow the user to tweak the display to their preference,
