Post #138

Sup. World. Miserable world. Lol. Emo.

It's currently 9:07am. My semester has ended but I'm at Taylor's. Why? Heh. Being an awesome boyfriend, thats why. Lol. Hannah is having her end of sem exam and I'm chilling here waiting for her to finish.

Currently writing this on my brand spanking new iPhone 4. Was a birthday gift from my mum. But I know that this 'gift' will come back and haunt me. Inevitable haunting to come.

I shall make this a geek post? Okay, go! First of all. The iPhone is way heavier than my iPod Touch. I'm basically gaining finger muscles supporting this up. The Retina display is a million times better than of my iPod. And on top of that it came with a clear screen protector which I'm beginning to like for it is so very clear. However there are some downsides to this clear screen protector. I really don't mind the glare. But the oil that gets stuck there is really unbearable. No matter how much is wiped off, it still feels oily. Ugh.

I think iPhones wifi capabilties are way stronger than of the iPod. And performance wise the iPhone wins hands down, in terms of battery and device lag. My iPhone was jiailbroken less than an hour after purchase to the latest firmware, 4.3.3. Restored from my backed iPod well I guess. As usual the jailbroken stuff will clash a little but I decided that was better due to the games I played on my iPod. Lol. But no issues nontheless.

Battery life is surprisingly good although friends have complained otherwise. I've been using my iPhone for the past hour non-stop. Wifi and music on. Surfing the internet and now typing this and it has only dropped 10ish percent.

This iPhone costs RM2400 from the Bangsar shopping complex Apple store. Fully unlocked with a free casing worth RM100. Never knew they sold fully unlocked phones at the Apple stores here. However my one year warranty still comes from Maxis.

Is the phone worth it? Its okay I guess. Only thing missing now is 3G which I don't have. So I have to rely on wifi whenever I wanna go online, meaning no whatsapp on the go, which blows a little. It's not so bad. I get to experiment with jailbreak apps that I never got to use on the iPod. And maan, I was missing out on a lot. Like bitesms and lockinfo. 2 amazing apps to compliment the iPhone. However with the incoming final release od iOS5, jailbreaking could just be used for free paid apps. I really think apple steals bits and pieces of jailbreak apps and includes them in their new OS releases. Boo! Cannot tahan how alike their updates are to jailbreak apps that have been around for so long. Why didn't you implement it in the first place eh, Apple?

So i guess thats about it. Here's a picture of my lockscree with lockinfo.


Niceee.
