Hi guys, I have an N82 and I'm planning to upgrade to an iPhone 4. I would like to ask a few questions.

1) I don't usually carry cables with me, so I normally transfer files via BlueTooth to other machines/phones. Does the iPhone 4 support this?

2) I have Linux (Ubuntu). Can I transfer files (with cable) or micro-sd card to/from the iPhone 4?

3) My current phone has lots of MP3 files. Some of them I use as alarm/SMS/ringtones, any problems to use them on an iPhone?

4) I heard iPhone 4 browser is much better and faster than other phones, so no problem if I visit Flash sites right?

5) I heard the new iPhone 4 has a front camera but only WiFi by default, but are there 3rd-party applications that can use it to communicate with other phones via 3G?

Thanks for your attention! smile.gif

1) Nope, the iPhone 4 doesn't support bluetooth transfers although it has bluetooth capabilities. You may, however, download an app that supports bluetooth transfers from one iPhone to another.

2) As far as I know, you will have to go through iTunes to put anything into your iPhone. With an exception to photos.

3) No problems with ringtones. Ringtones are fully compatible with the iPhone 4; however I'm not too sure about SMS or alarm tones.

4) iPhone's browser, Safari, is indeed faster than the majority of smartphone browsers out there. However, it doesn't support flash due to some issues concerning battery life, nature of flash, etc. Read more on the first post of this topic.

5) 3G meaning video call, right? At the moment - none that I know of. I'm guessing Skype will implement this later on, but I don't know.

Hi thanks for your reply. Hmm, seems like the iPhone 4 has a lot of disadvantages. hmm.gif
I did some reading up on GSMArena and might buy an Android phone instead...
But thanks for your help anyway! notworthy.gif
