With the UK getting the iPhone some 6 moths after the US there's been a degree of hysteria about its launch in the sceptred isle.
PC Advisor were quick getting a UK iPhone review to their site, and at 9 pages it's as comprehensive as any. If you're in the UK you'll know that O2 currently have the exclusive rights to the iPhone, but there are methods of unlocking your iPhone and more options emerging.
The review waxes lyrical about the device's media player - which when you consider it's effectively a late generation iPod with a touch interface isn't surprising - but like many other reviews isn't overly enthusiastic about the iPhone's abilities as a phone. The camera is described as "decent", and they dedicate a whole page to over 50 of the Apple iPhone's biggest flaws. Some of these are ridiculous and clearly list padders (the lack of TV-out is hardly a serious flaw), others will be fixed with software updates, and only some are serious enough to feature in a buying decision.
Ultimately though they fall for the iPhone, concluding:
The future of mobile devices is here and it's called an Apple iPhone.
