Others The iPhone's battery is not to be replaced by the user. According to Apple, the battery provides up to 24 hours of music, eight hours of talking, seven hours of video, six hours of web browsing, or 250 hours of standby (depending on personal configuration).

The iPhone has been supported with headphones similar to those of iPod, but they also incorporate a microphone. A call can be answered/ ended by a microphone squeeze. A double squeeze while listening to music skips to the next track.

Drawbacks The iPhone was presented as a groundbreaking device combining lots of important features, yet it has been criticized for the lack of some crucial functions. A built-in camera does not support video recording and there is no zoom. The usage of EDGE technology has also been heavily criticized, since there is no match for the 3G network's solutions such as UMTS, HSDPA. The iPhone lacks also IR (infrared port), GPS and an possibility of recharging the battery. In a subscription version there is no support of MMS messages and the use of MP3 files as ring tones. The unlocked versions support MMS sending and enable the use of MP3 ring tones. The latest version of firmware 1.1.2. enables an easy download of MP3 ring tones.
