Apple iPhone 3G Dock

Excellent product

Written by CV from Smyrna

This is an amazing product. I don't like the high price but it is worth it. I am using this dock with the USB power adapter that came with my iPhone and with the USB cable the also came included. Love it, Love it. Especially since I use the night stand app wihich is like a nightstand alarm clock. So nice. Also I hate looking for the cord everynight to charge my phone. This is nice because it is right where I left it when I return. It would be even better if this came with all three for a better price. I am only giving it a four star because I think it is very expensive.

Apple iPhone 3G Dock

pretty good, but overpriced

Written by JJ from Fenton

this is a very high-quality product. the iphone fits VERY snug and doesn't move around or wiggle in the dock. Its got a rubber or silicone (not sure which) bottom so it doesn't slide across whatever surface its on. The audio out hole-thingy i helpful so i don't have to reach a cable all the way up to the top of the iphone. and the audio coming out of it seems much clearer, and im not even sure if its supposed to be that way. I really wish it came with an extra USB cable, but it doesn't, unfortunately. But it seems overpriced for $30 USD, i would think its worth $20, but whatever its only a difference of $10. This would defiantly be 5-star if it came with another USB cable.

Good dock

Written by TG from VIRGINIA BEACH

This is a good dock for the iPhone 3G, it allows the phone to stand up while charging giving you a good view of the screen for incoming text messages and the like. The only criticism I have is that it did not come with another USB charging cable so you can keep the dock connected to your computer and have a travel USB charging cable for on the go charging. It would also be nice if the dock accommodated charging the Apple iPhone Bluetooth headset like the first gen iPhone dock.

Great design

I like the overall design of the dock, also it has a 3.5mm audio out for your external speakers. Little costly but a must to have for your iphone :)

this dock ROCKS!!!

I love the dock I think its great the reason it only gets 4 stars and not five is the whole fact that it does not come in black and the only reason that I think that's bad is because I have a black iPhone

Does what it says on the tin - almost

Written by IM from MILTON KEYNES

Dock is fine, nice as always if a bit overpriced. I think the lack of cable is no real hardship if you already own 3 iPods :)
The fact the bluetooth headset wont charge when it's cable is connected to the dock is a pain in the rear though and means extra desk clutter.
Roll on the combined 3g / bluetooth dock.

Functional: one drawback though

Written by SP from New York

The line-out on the back is a nice touch, but isn't supported for phone calls! This vitiates one of the huge advantages of the Phone and iPod integration on iPhone - the way music fades out and the ringer sounds in your earbuds when you take a call. Your only option when using the Dock is to take the call on the speakerphone.

Apple iPhone 3G Dock

It is exactly what it says it is: a Dock

Written by PC from Jacksonville

Sep 20, 2008

Some people like to gripe too much. The box says it's an iPhone 3G dock. That's what you get. Nothing less, nothing more. It does exactly what it's supposed to do. If you were expecting a cable, an AC adapter, or a Macbook Air to be included with it, it's your own fault for not reading the side of the box. It clearly states that just a dock is included. The cable & AC adapter came with your iPhone. If that's not enough, just buy more cables and adapters. Problem solved. If you don't like that policy, tough, because that's how Apple works.

I will ding Apple 1 star because it is a shame that Apple decided not to include a dock with the 3G, when it was included with the first iPhone. They also continue to supply the 'Dock-specific' USB cable (small connector) with the 3G iPhone rather than the normal 'dockless' cable (with it's larger connector that clips in). It seems that this was intentional to force people to buy a dock.

It is fine, but limited use of cases

Written by ND from Seattle

Sep 19, 2008

I am not at all disappointed by the lack of a cable, unless you ate the one that came with your iphone, you should be fine with it too. Otherwise you just end up with a cable sitting in a drawer.

I guess I might have preferred to have the larger one for an extra 20 bucks, just because my silicon case is not an easy fit onto this one. I have seen that the agent 18 case comes with a universal dock adapter included in the box, and this may be one way to go, but the larger dock seem to work with any case, in any case :)

What's up Dock?

Written by DO from Yuma

Sep 14, 2008

Ok, this isn’t rocket science and it isn’t a bargain, although it does the job. Likewise, the audio line out is a nice touch. It’s very well made too. However, as you may already know, it doesn’t come with a cable so either buy one locally or use the one that you may already have for your car charger, etc. I keep it on my nightstand and I’m tempted to buy another one to have connected to my Mac. In short, it just works.

Just a dock

Written by MR from PLACITAS

Aug 30, 2008

This is just a dock, it looks better than the previous one for the 1st gen. However, it will make small marks on the back of the black iPhone only visible in good light but it's just something i've noticed and happens with all docks, you can tell by the demos at the apple store.

Just Works!

Written by LH from LAND O LAKES

This dock works fine-It is weighted properly and I don't think there is a problem with the Iphone tipping over unless you take a swipe at it! The phone fits snugly enough and does what it is supposed to do......charge......only down side I see is "No cable included".....wonder what marketing genius decided to trade a cable for "bad PR"?

Very Nice

This is a nice dock to have. The iPhone fits perfectly, and it helps keeps scratches off your phone. But for the price I wish they would include an USB cord, and a power adapter.

More Angle

Written by JO from Chino Hills

Jul 23, 2008

I like the dock but one modification would make it even better. I would like to see more of angle to the phone when it is in the dock so I can work with it better at my desk without taking it out of the dock. I had a palm device which has the perfect dock angle. I would never change back but it would be nice to tilt the dock back about 30 degrees.

Wish It Came with iPhone, But There's a "Solution"

Written by JM from NEWHALL

Jul 22, 2008

I had become very accostumed to using the dock with my first iPhone, and was surprised to not find one with the 3G. Since I also have an Apple bluetooth, I have the dual dock also. When I sold my original iPhone I also gave the original dock, but still have the dual dock. So what would I do with this precious (but now obsolete) device? I shaved the inside edges of the dual dock to accomodate my iPhone 3G! (cheapskate that I am). It works fine and I have one of the first iPhone 3G dual docks. You can do the same with your regular iPhone dock if you dare (and want to save $30).
