Apple has recently released their iPhone 4, and even before its release it created quite a buzz through the technology industry. The iPhone 4 features a super slim design that blows away its current phone contemporaries. The iPhone 4 is about 9 millimeters in width, which makes it 3 millimeters smaller than its older sibling, the iPhone 3GS. This is a 24% reduction in size. The iPhone 4 is also less wide than the iPhone 3GS, making it perfect to stow anywhere and less clumsy to hold. The iPhone 4 still weighs in at 136 grams, but because of its slimmer and sleeker design, it is a must have for just about everyone.
While these enhancements alone are enough to justify upgrading to the Apple iPhone 4, they have thrown in even more convenient features for the discerning customer. After all, the iPhone 4, while being smaller, shares the iPhone 3GS’ same 3.5″ screen, but now it can carry an even higher 960 x 640 pixel resolution. Each inch carries 326 pixels, making it the highest resolution phone screen you can find on the market today.
The Retina display is far better than any other type of smartphone screen you can find on the market – after all, it gets its name from the fact that it has a greater number of pixels than can be picked up by the human eye. iPads and iMacs have also carried over their in-plane-switching techniques to the screen of the iPhone 4, making the screen able to be viewed from more angles than ever before and allowing for maximum visibility and comfort – no more tilting the screen so you can see what is going on.
The A4 CPU included with the iPhone 4 is the same one that powers the iPad. What’s more the iPhone 4 has a greater number of capabilities with the new iOS 4 operating system, including the ability to more easily multitask. While you may think that they took too long to do it, Apple merely wanted to bide their time until they could release a finished product, as with the copy and past features.
The iPhone 4 also has fantastic ways to use your still and video camera, now featuring a 5 megapixel camera in the body of the phone. What’s more, it comes with a backlit sensor, 5x integrated zoom, and an LED flash, as well as the ability to record 720p HD video at 30 fps, making it an amazing video camera. You can even use tap to focus on the video camcorder as well.
