upgrade from a 2G phone to 3GS?? good or bad idea

**John1177** · 08-22-2009, 10:24 AM

I am on a 2g phone, upgraded to the 3.0 firmware. My question is this. Is it worth the investment to move up to a 3GS phone?

I've only played with my buddies. But if I were an AT&T customer, I wouldn't think twice. Its got way more processing power, a decent cam-corder, a decent camera, a compass (which is nice if your a bad Indian, and get lost easily), etc. It truly is a superior device.

Its an AMAZING idea.

i made the leap over when 3g s came out its awesome, gps faster processor memory a that i luv mine <3

I appreciate the feed back..I am thinking that I could sell me 2G for about what the 1600gig would cost me at ATT. I am eligable for the upgrade price and my 2G is in immaculate condition..it has been in a case and with screen protector from day one..

I gave my 2g away to a friend... Didnt even bother selling it.

2G-3GS is a perfect upgrade...
Unlike 2G to 3G... Which was a waste of money

its not worth it...the money isnt worth a new phone...if u sell ur 2g for a good price then maybe...but to spend full pprice on a 3gs when u have a 2g..bad idea...

@John1177 thats basically what i did sold my 2g 16gb on ebay an got $280 LOL

so i basically paid about 35 dollars for a extra a brand new 3g s iphone (of course with a extended contract but i planned to stay with att anyway)

It's worth it for sure!

Right now, anything is better than the 2G iPhone. Do it!

Short Answer: Yes.

Long Answer: Yesssssss. It's real nice coming from a 2G to an S.

From a 2G? Definitely!

**bobright** · 08-24-2009, 12:58 AM

hell even a 3g those suckers lag like hell its like u type keys an then it reacts seconds later lol

**angiepangie** · 08-24-2009, 01:00 AM

^From a 3G - not worth $700.

**John1177** · 08-24-2009, 07:21 AM

I am with AT&T and eligible for the upgrade price so I am only looking at either $199 or $299. Since I have not even filled up my 8g phone I am thinking that the 16 would be plenty unless there is other benifits that come with the 32.. Anyone know if there is any additional benifits to going with the 32?

**Grassmasta** · 08-24-2009, 09:41 AM

The advantage of the 32 gb is really going to lie with future applications. Take for instance the Tom-Tom app, that alone is 1+ gigs. Apps are going to keep getting bigger and bigger!!! Ride dirty with the 30...2!

For sure. That and the fact that they just found the S can play HD video, which will take up a good amount of space.

32 ftw!

**angiepangie** · 08-24-2009, 06:35 PM

I'm stuck here with my measly 16gb 3G.
