Macrumors has put together a promising roundup of the latest Verizon-iPhone reviews. I do believe the title says it all. There are definitely pros to having the iPhone join Verizon’s network, however there are also some pretty inconspicuous and noteworthy cons. “Like what?” I’m so glad you asked. This is perhaps my single, largest gripe with Verizon’s network (via Macworld):
If you’re using the Internet and your phone rings, your Internet connection immediately drops.
I’m sure I am making a bigger deal of this than is necessary, but my mind can’t seem to get around it (I guess I have been with AT&T too long). Another one of my favorite quotes:
AT&T’s network averaged 46% faster at download speeds and 24% faster at upload speeds.
Huh? No kidding.
