iPhone 3G Review II

9. Volume rocker is noticeably less "clicky". Preferred the old one, could feel it through trouser pockets and could tell when it was pushed. This one you can't much tell without listening.

10. Headphone jack is flush, meaning any standard headphones can fit without adapters. Last "click" is very firm, meaning the fit is as tight as the first generation. This is a very good thing; 2/3rds of my drops have been bungee-corded by the headphones. Improvement.

11. Maybe it's just me, but both screen and home button seem a little less sensitive. Maybe it's a case of "breaking in", and some may like it more this way. Home button more seamless, which is nice. Sensitivity takes some getting used to.

12. Stereo speakers noticeably (~30%) louder on new iPhone. More depth as well, richer.

Review of iPhone 2.0 software coming.
