iPhone 4, a new leap in technology for the Apple smartphone

To renew your Smartphone, Apple is based on a new design, a new configuration and, above all, a new operating system.


With its new design, the iPhone 4 reviews the configuration of the phone Apple on the rise and the new office operating system, called IOS Gia 4. It offers video calling, 5-megapixel-Fotoapparat and is available in 16 and 32GB in black or white.


So, the iPhone has been found (or not) in a Region of Brewery Cupertino was actually the fourth iteration of Apple's Smartphone. If the iPhone has changed considerably between the external version of the 3G and 3G S, the difference is obvious in this case. Less rounded and more fein, the iPhone is indeed four rings with a metal frame, which is the device structure Antennas dienen kommen.


Superior finish and is a kind glass bottom lens extremely strong. Protects an impressive screen resolution. Believe Apple is the highest resolution and highest pixel density ever seen on the screen of a mobile phone. Retina is his screen name, offers a definition of 960 x 640 pixels per density of 326 dpi.
All for a diagonal of 3.5 inches. For comparison, the iPhone 3G Posted definition of D and a 480 x 320 pixels with a resolution of 163 dpi for the same diagonal. The IPS LCD panel capacity (best viewing angle), but also AMOLED guarantees a ratio of 800:1 Contrast indicated.


Apple finds mobile Video Conference

Another new exterior double 5 Megapixel Kamera. The one back in, an LED-Blitz can also TORCH ACTION kommen in Video mode, and a front for video calls. While you can switch between them during a video call.
Apple seems to have discovered that the French sold us players at the beginning of 3G. Some differences. First, FaceTime is the name of the service will operate between iPhone 4. Those who hope to chat with iChat users will be charged. Even more damaging, FaceTime can not use, for now, the 3G networks. It 's a need to use Wi-Fi network, which now can be 802.11n.
E 'per meet minimum level of quality that Apple has resolved or is that American players, including 3G networks, already staggering under the traditional practices, have set foot on? Hard to say. Probably a bit 'of both.


Autonomy and processor are doped

Inside, Apple also announced new products. Three are worthy of note. The first is the introduction of Apple's processor A4. It is not known at this time is whether the same model built in the IPAD (ARM processor einem 1 GHz). In any case, this is a nice jump in terms of computing power, since the 3G S Integra einem 600 MHz ARM processor.
The second is the arrival of a three-axis gyroscope, useful pro games? Finally, the third is the larger battery. According to Apple, this would be an increase of 40% autonomy. It would increase from 5 to 7 Erz in voice communication.

The Revolution will be the Software

Ultimately, this could Tarif the difference in the long run, the arrival of the iPhone OS 4, will now be called IOS 4. Name change makes sense, since the operating system (OS) running on both the iPhone (3G, 3G and S 4) that the iPod touch (2nd and 3rd Generation) or IPAD. The update is free for all Plattaforme.
The big news is obviously multitasking. Will be possible to quickly switch between applications without rebooting the system. Every day, another innovation that will change the life of the Arrival Date. They are created by dragging the icon of another application on. Then you can pack up to 12 questions (the limit of the current beta version of the operating system).
And, ein popular demand, Mail now show all the e-mail inbox, General. You can always browse course per address. In total, Apple has announced more than a hundred new features, some of which should improve the integration of iPhone in professional computing environments.
In addition, Apple announced the arrival on an iPhone version of iMovie, the software-to Videobearbeitung - if it passes the validation process of the producer, Steve Jobs joked during his keynote. You can make small ein Video 720p and mounted directly on their smartphone before sending them via MMS or upload them. pro iMovie iPhone will cost $ 4.99 a of the price in Euros is not yet published.

Apple iPhone 4 Review Roundup - Still the Leader Smartphone

iPhone 4 with important gadget, Apple tends to some (small) number of units to distribute to write early popular publications. (I do not think it surprise anyone to discover that Gizmodo is not on the list in search of Apple.) For the iPhone 4, there were five. Here are highlights:

David Pogue, "New York Times

"Says The iPhone 4 as a success. AT & T that it has received 10 times as many reservations as it has done for the iPhone 3G last year. The first day of order taking, Apple 600 000 requests to be processed before the AI booking system and AT & T, AOS, descended into chaos.

In brief, the public seems perfectly able to sniff out a winner without the help of tech critics. "

"Well, the iPhone is no longer the undisputed king of mobile applications. Above all, the more technically oriented more flexibility and choice of its rival Android, HTC and more complicated than you can find incredible Aore Ages and its App Store is not so good, but with Aore droolworthy features such as GPS turn-by-turn instructions, voice recognition, typing, saves removable battery and a choice of mobile networks loaded.

If what interests you, however, the size and shape, beauty and life of the battery, Polish and pleasure, then the iPhone 4 calls your name. "

Walt Mossberg, the Wall Street Journal

"I fell several times from a few feet onto a hard surface with no problems, and has acquired no scratches at all in my head, even though I was not a case or destroy."

"The camera is back from a major. My test image was clear and crisp even in low light conditions and in close-up. It is not the best camera phone that I tried, but it is a great improvement.

"The most important drawback of the iPhone 4 is that the U.S., AT & T, which not only operates a network that is still having trouble connecting calls and care in many cities has is tied up, but now i abandoned unlimited flat-rate data plans . Apple needs a second network.

"Apple has shipped a major update, well designed, in my opinion, keep in mind in the smartphone wars."

Josh Topolsky, Engadget

"Overall, just do not find a better display on a mobile phone, and this is no empty rhetoric."

"Say it again: Yes, iPhone does not seem the issue fell 4 Call alleviate. It was not perfect and we had some problems connecting downtown New York City in particular, although it's difficult to say whether it was a fault of our phone number, we were near the group of buildings or the person we spoke, which had been on a 3G in the same location. "

"Here's the thing - that can not be" real "multitasking for many of us, but the amount of multitasking for most of us. I mean look, feel, and act like multitasking, so it's pretty hard to complain about .

"In our approximation the iPhone 4 the best smartphone on the market is now. The splendid combination of new hardware and displays are stunning, updated cameras and significant improvements to the operating system this is an extremely powerful package."

Ed Baig, USA Today

"No one really has nailed video calls over the years, at least not the way Apple has it here, with some restrictions. FaceTime is nailed as simple as a normal call to make."

Apple has improved the life of the battery on the iPhone 4. Use a larger battery, for one thing. Pounding it pretty hard, sometimes I have even met the battery warning at the end of the day, the Chargers, when and where you work live, no bad idea. "[Note: This is even more critical view of the battery life of the iPhone's 4 all, so I have made. Other reviews say the battery life of up to 38 hours in normal use.]

"As with the previous iPhone, the latest model of the new fact. FaceTime video telephony on the iPhone one of these four cool" seeing is believing "Functions and reach the top by the Bank, a number of extensions. And IOS-4 is a software update to the most terrible. "

Xeni Jardin, Boing Boing

"It's square-off, thin, steel-glass and the masculine form, much more. How to develop a Clock really hot. There chamfers and grooves and linear mode, which did not exist before. It feels really nice to hold . once had my hand in the habit of the body felt 3GS more like a toy, and I would not really consider it. "

"To be used with light, but with 3G and WiFi data turned the whole time, I got a full four days of battery life. Video with very serious and playback, instant messaging, e-mail and data over 3G connection, I had a days life of the battery. "

"Here's the thing: AT & T still sucks, and from the best engineering Cupertino will not change that."

"Thank you Jesus, finally. Blocks east on the iPhone, as we have on the IPAD. If you read Boing Boing to bed, just double-click press the Home button, tap the menu bar, far left, you can lock the display in Portrait to not change towards you when you move or sit or whatever. "

Apple iPhone 4 : Everything You Need to Know

iPhone 4: Retina Display

The iPhone 4 will also sport four, which Jobs described as "retinal display with four times the pixel density of a typical LCD display to an impressive 326 pixels per inch, far denser than anything else in the market for consumer electronics. The result is a 3.5-inch display with a native resolution of 960 x 640 pixels, which is actually a higher resolution than the typical human eye is able to perceive if, instead of at a distance of only 10 to 12 inches. Jobs claims the iPhone display four winds like a printed book of high quality (even if the light emitting!) Instead of blocky pixellated grating. The iPhone OS automatically handles text rendering and control institutions at the higher resolution for the iPhone 4, so that developers do not have anything to do to update their applications look at the new display as well ... But of course if the developers want to add higher-resolution graphics to their applications, they will look stunning on the iPhone 4

iPhone 4: A4 Chip and Gyroscope

The iPhone 4 is also an Apple-designed CPU A4, following the example of the power of the processor IPAD. Jobs said the A4 processor power management improved so that the iPhone will be 4 to 40 percent more talk time on 3G networks (and manage up to seven hours), or up to 6 hours of 3G web browsing and 10 hours Wi-Fi browsing.

The iPhone also sports a top four, the six-axis motion sensing ... possible as a game controller, and iPhone OS 4 developer APIs to use, offers the roundabout: Jobs sees the gyroscope enables entirely new forms of mobile gaming.

iPhone 4: Camera & iMovie

The iPhone 4 will say a 5-megapixel camera with a backside-illuminated sensor keys, the jobs, increase the amount of light detected by the sensor, which have better photos, especially in low-light situations. The camera will also record HD video at 720p resolution and 30 frames per second, and the LED flash can be used for light video. How the iPhone 3G is the iPhone 4 feature-phone video editing and allows users to share video on the Internet (think Facebook and YouTube).

Users can also camera images to their films (complete with the pan-and-scan Ken Burns effect) and iMovie for iPhone that allows users to add titles and transitions for their videos.

Users can also music as a soundtrack for her video "and choose from a range of pre-generated topics. IMovie for iPhone is available as a separate purchase from the App Store for $ 4.99.

iPhone 4: Bing

The new features in IOS 4 an option to use Microsoft Bing as default search engine, Google is still the iPhone will be the default search, but Yahoo and Bing are available as options-powered search. Note that Bing is taking over the back-end for Yahoo search services later this year.

iBooks for iPhone

The applications can synchronize on device, so users able reading an iBook to start an IPAD, then pick you up at the same place on the iPhone. Users will have the opportunity to buy the books for all supported devices Download their without charge.
