No. I waited half an hour, then noticed that the apple forums were full of complaints such as that. I backed up normally, then did a restore, and OS4 applied quickly.

That being said - meh.

Agreed on this point, the article could have been 1/4 the length and still had the same information. Way too many superlatives.

Should have mine tomorrow morning.

Getting £180 for my old one.

Was gonna spunk up tomorrow but I have more pressing things to purchase...

oh hey, "We're not going to beat around the bush -- in our approximation, the iPhone 4 is the best smartphone on the market right now." - Engadget.

I have mine in my hand.

Just need to go home, charge it up, and transfer all my shit. Yay!

lol i heard the evo battery life is horrendous and u gotta turn all kinds of shit off or it dies in no time...rofl?...

Not a trace of the screen separation issue (which was quite minor from the pics I've seen), and no sign of the backlight bleeding that the Engadget iFags mentioned, either. It's really quite an awesome phone. Battery life does lick bollocks, though.

You mean exactly like the iPhone? rofl?

This is a big one for many people, and we have some fairly surprising news to report. The battery life on the iPhone 4 has been outstanding thus far, exceeding our expectations for longevity during testing. We've only had a short time to use the phone, but in the week or so we've been carrying the device as our main phone, we've had pretty amazing results under normal to heavy use. In fact, we managed to squeeze more than 38 hours -- yes, 38 hours -- of life out of a single charge using the phone as we normally would. We're talking calls, some gaming, lots of push email and calendar invites, playing music over Bluetooth in the car, and just general testing (like downloading new apps, rearranging icons, tweaking settings). We went from 10:30AM on a Saturday morning till 1:00AM on Monday without needing to charge the phone. Of course, it switched itself off just after the clock struck 1, but it was thrilling -- like that episode of Seinfeld where Kramer and the car salesman see how far they can get in a car with the tank on E. Sitcom references aside, the battery life seems markedly improved in the iPhone 4, and why not? It's got a much larger battery coupled with that iPad-powering A4, which has already shown that it can sip rather than gulp power.

Once the rest of the team has their iPhones in hand, we'll do some hardcore battery life testing and see what we come up with, but we think under pretty active use, the iPhone 4 blows Apple's previous generation phone out of the water, and makes a lot of the competition look downright needy.

Brilliant! Some of your guys' cellphones are better than other people's cellphones. Congratulations!

iphone destroys evo...i feel bad for nightshade...
