Answer 1

Ok, you should watch this video about the iPhone 3G hitting Japan:

I would think with that much of a demand, the people that do have them would be very cool and stylish.

Then again, all of the other phones can do just about anything (even can be used as credit cards!), so its your choice

Answer 2

made in chinese phones

Answer 3

The iphone doesn't have as many functions as the best japanese phones. however it's considered one of the coolest phones because it's an apple.  

Answer 4

iPhone sucks. Buy some thick,fat windows mobile.

Answer 5

All right Dude.  I'm an American in Tokyo!  Phones really don't matter.  There is a tiny bit of a craze about the I-Phone in Tokyo at this very moment.  The prob is that no one is going to come up to you and say--Oh My God that is a Cool Phone.  No one cares.   Actually, they are too shy to talk to you about how cool your phone is!  Most people have phones that receive calls, surf the web, take pictures, can work as credit cards, have super clear television channels, receive videos as clearly as your dvd player.  The list goes on.  Their phones used to be super tiny but now, they are huge and can do so many things.  So, it all depends on what phone company you are going to use.  Trust me buddy, I cam here with my 3G US phone and it only works in some sectors in JP.  Their phone works in subways so it does not matter jack!

Answer 6

The iphone isn't thaaat cool only because there's better technology already existing in Japan that the iphone doesn't even have, such as keitai saifu (you can buy stuff using your cell instead of credit cards), video calls (you can see the person you're calling), etc.

Why don't you check out these phones and see if you can pick out one that fits your needs and also looks cool.

Answer 7

iPhone is nothing to do with big deal in Japan.

There are so many functioned cellphone Japanese have used with there.

Playing cellphone itself maniacally  is out of date in here except ignorant teenager who just dream to get it immediately.

Japan is not cellphone freak country.
