People all know by now that the iPhone's current features can easily be outdone by most smartphones out in the market, such as Nokia's groundbreaking N95 smartphone for example. Still, the iPhone is being touted as the best device that hit the market, and it's not just hype - people who bought the iPhone were very satisfied with their purchase. So, what's the deal?

According to a comprehensive review in Download Squad, it's because the iPhone was never marketed as a smartphone; rather, the iPhone was being advertised as an iPod, a mobile phone, and a portable internet device.

iPhone was meant for users who could never be bothered with such complicated power features, which are crammed in today's smartphones. Instead it put its emphasis on ease of use. So easy to use, that the iPhone does not come with a user's manual (the manual can be downloaded from Apple's website).

The iPhone's lack of complex features added to its appeal to the mass market as well. Multimedia experience with the iPhone is seamless with a less cluttered user interface that is almost a part of every other smartphone in the market.

It is therefore no wonder that the iPhone turned out to be such a hit with the mass market, despite its high-end price. In the end, it is not the features that made the iPhone win, but it is how the iPhone allowed people do things with ease.
