Most of my friends have the iPhone 4 using 4.1 & 4.2 OS
I am using the iPhone 3GS "4.1 OS"
They are always complaining of their phone not working correctly, such as freezing, not turning off, etc. The only problem I have had with my phone is the MMS messaging, the 3GS had multiple cases of MMS problems.
The only BIG difference between the phones is the facetime which not many people I know use it, most of the other things can be jailbroken making the 3GS better than the 4G for a much better price.

This seems like a good place for my first post...
Having owned the iPhone 3G, 3GS and now the iPhone 4 I can say that the iPhone 4 is definitely a huge improvement in many ways over the 3GS. Call quality issues that were made a big deal of when the phone was first released are cured simply with a bumper or case. Since using a case I have never suffered the breakage or scratching issues.
The iPhone 4 is nice and light and strangely even though the back is glass now and not plastic it feels sturdier than the plastic did.
The best thing though is the Retina display. SMS messages look sharper and clearer to read and games look stunning compared to the 3G or 3GS. Add to that the improved speed of the CPU and the larger RAM in the iPhone 4 and your apps will be far quicker.
Facetime is ok but quite unused...weirdly skype won't let you use the camera.
All in all if offered any iPhone for free, the iPhone 4 would be my first choice hands down.
I use my phone a lot for calls, sms, browsing and apps and have no problems at all.

I would prefer an Android phone, but if you are an Apple kind of guy, i guess it is for you. My friends dad has it and i didn''t really like it much.

Again, based on what you heard, not what you know from using it. Not a lot of bugs at all in iOS 4.2. Overpriced? In what way? They cost what they cost and there are cheaper options for example getting a refurbished iPhone 4. Should the iPhone 5 launch in the summer as the 3G, 3GS and 4 have done over the last 3 years, the cost will drop again.
I've rebooted mine possibly as many as 3 times since July and it's on 24/7. Hardly crap and buggy...
