Apple iPhone 3G Dock

Just a dock

Written by SD from DURHAM

Pros:

- The viewing angle of the dock looks pretty natural when used on your desk, but also on the average night stand.

- Easy to dock and undock. Fits snugly, but not too tight

- Small and easy to take to an office

Cons:

- No extra cord

- Don't ask me how, but it's easy to knock over face forward. Wouldn't have been a problem if the "base" area was a little bigger

Overal not a bad solution, but I went with a all silicone cover. No te phone doesn't fit in the dock unless you uncover the bottom part of the skin. This could have been prevented if the connector had variable height options.

Without a cover the phone would scratch so I think I will get rid of the dock and just lay it flat.

Apple iPhone 3G Dock

A Must Have!

Written by KW from GRIFFIN

There is no doubt that living with your brand new iphone 3G without a dock is unacceptable. Anyone who had the first generation iphone understands what I mean, Once you live with a dock, it is just crazy to live without one. the ease of being able to sit it down in the dock quickly takes less than a second, and its even quicker taking it out. it sits upright so you can see it clearly. the sound is just as loud when it is resting in the dock. and no matter what minor cons we can think of, it is out-weighed by the fact that who wants to continue to use a cord or lay that precious phone we all bow down to on a table with the ever so slight possibility of scratching the back. its a guarantee, and you will appreciate it way more than using what came with the iphone. and yes its $30, you already paid for the phone i think we can shell a little bit more

Apple iPhone 3G Dock

No cable?

Written by JH from VALRICO

This dock is a great idea and can be very handy for a work situation. It really irks me that I have to go find a connector cable because one is not included in the package. I want to keep the dock ready at work, and keep a dock connector in my laptop bag for syncing and charging on the go. I find it very frustrating to purchase a seperate cable to power it up. Cables aren't that expensive, one should be included for the price of this accessory.

It is 5 stars, but....

The dock is a five star device, all apple docks in the past have been. The problem is that it should have been included with the iphone 3G.
I'm sorry, but it is hard for me to believe that the last reviewer of this product claimed he was amazed about this device - he said he had the old iphone and laid it down because it was aluminum. (Dude, the original iphone CAME WITH THE DOCK!!! How can you be amazed at something you already knew was out there??? YOU HAD ONE!!! Were you paid for that review LOL!

It's the same dock, for more money

What can I say? It's a dock, and it works fine. This is more or less the same old iphone dock that we all came to know and love when it came bundled with iPhone v1 - but now we have to pay $29 for it because it doesn't come included with iPhone 3G. For that reason, it gets only three stars from me.

I love it, it does what it is suppose to do, I just hated spending 29.00 when I need a dual dock for my 3G and my Apple Bluetooth Headset. Apple when can we see this product for sell?

Apple iPhone 3G Dock

a godsend.

Written by BL from New York

I recently bought the iPhone 3G, and have been afraid to set it down for fear of scratching it. Before it was ok to set it on its back, as it was aluminum. But now the front and back seem equally in danger of scuffs and marks.

I was sad to find out that it doesn't stand up on its own, as I figure that Apple usually thinks of everything. I tried for several hours to stand the phone on-end at my desk, to no avail. A coworker of mine noticed my frustration and suggested the iPhone dock. What an amazing device! With this piece of plastic, I was able to stand my phone on end and look at it lovingly from across my desk.

Some may say the $29 price tag is steep, but I think it's a small price to pay to be able to put the phone down and get back to using my hands for typing and whatnot.

Not as good as the previous model

Written by RJ from Chicago

I like the way it looks, and how the phone fits into the dock, but I've had a huge problem with touching the phone anywhere on the top half and it becoming dislodged from the dock ever so slightly, disconnecting from the computer, and then reconnecting immediately. Its become a huge hassle especially with the new backing up before sync in iTunes. I'm not thrilled with this dock, compared with the previous version, and I will probably return it.
