Unless you’ve been living on another planet over the past few months, you will no doubt have been subject to the media hype surrounding the release of the Apple iPhone 4.
Whilst its media attention may not have been all positive, you would be hard pressed to find an iPhone 4 user who does not love everything about the handset.
With a number of improvements on previous iPhone models, apple has packed a massive amount of technology into the sleek and stylish handset. The design of the phone itself so big improvement on the previous models, featuring a metal and strengthened glass casing with a steel band around the edge which doubles up as the antenna. A slightly more angular appearance gives a modern feel to the iPhone, and when you hold it in your hand it really feels like a luxury item, made with premium materials and manufacturing processes.
An impressive five mega pixel camera caters for everybody from the photography enthusiast to those who simply like to take spontaneous snapshots when out with friends. The camera now features a flash and the ability to shoot video in 720p (HD), making it one of the most advanced camera phones currently available. Another addition to this new version of the iPhone is a front facing camera which can be used in conjunction with the new FaceTime app. This allows video calls to be carried out over Wi-Fi Networks with other iPhone 4 users.
Access to the Internet is provided courtesy of both HSDPA in areas with 3G, as well as Wi-Fi connectivity where available. The renowned Safari web browser makes surfing the Internet a pleasure and is superbly accompanied by the handset’s touchscreen abilities, with features such as pinch to zoom and an accelerometer sensor for auto rotate.
A new and improved retina display features a previously unheard of pixel resolution, which is in fact so high that this human eye cannot distinguish individual pixels. The result of this is unrivalled quality and clarity of on screen content, making it perfect for viewing photos, video content rich web sites as well as the iOS 4 user interface.
Access to the AppStore is provided as standard which allows users to access many thousands of applications which can be downloaded. Many are free of charge whilst others have to be paid for. Even by downloading free apps, users have the ability to turn their iPhone 4 into a highly functional and versatile tool which excels at any task you could possibly think of ranging from entertainment, to productivity in the workplace, so making it the media powerhouse with apps which perfectly complement the iTunes and iPod functions.
It is easy to see why the apple iPhone 4 has proven to be such a popular handset, and despite the inevitable teething problems which should be expected from a major product launch such as this, it looks set to remain at the top of many a gadget enthusiast’s wish list.
