    Can anyone who has an iphone comment on the call quality on both ends (you and receiver). I have read a lot about it being fairly poor for earpiece volume and sound quality on receiver end.

    Also if the phone is sleeping (screen off) what is the sequence for answering a call? Is it simply press a button to answer or do you have to wake the screen, unlock it and then answer?

    Also is you phone unlocked or genuine O2?

    i haven't noticed any difference between calls from my old phone k800i and no one has told me otherwise either.

    the screen automatically wakes when a call comes through, then you just slide to answer the call.

    the button on the top of the iphone if pressed once when someone is calling you will turn off the ringtone/vibrate but the call still rings if pressed twice in succession it goes to voicemail.

    i have a unlocked iphone but on O2 bill pay whatever plan is €35.

    Call quality is very good at both ends, But i find the ringer very low.

    When the phone rings the screen comes up with the callers details,
    you "slide to unlock"
    there are some vids of it on the Apple website in the iPhone section.

    Unlocked US phone on o2 prepay!

    i find the audio is a lot clearer than my old phone (nokia 6103). same goes for the receiver, i've been told a couple of times that the mic is almost too loud.
    i'm using an unlocked uk phone on meteor bill pay, previously meteor payg.
