Recently released, the Apple iPhone 4 is already Apple's greatest sales achievement. Throughout the UK and US they are currently selling fast, but what about the iPhone 4 makes it so special? Let's take a look at what this phone has over the competition.
Features
In addition to the newly released iOS 4 software which adds many great features including multitasking, the new iPhone 4 also offers many new features as well.
First there is the new "retina" display, boasting an eye popping 960x640 resolution screen with 326ppi (pixels per inch). This new screen shows sharper text and the clearest video of any phone out there. The new display also enables great angle viewing and is able to display 720p high definition video.
In addition to showing great video, the new iPhone 4 also takes great videos as well. While the new 5mp camera may not have the highest megapixel count out there, the software is what enables crystal clear pictures and video. Also with the addition of an LED flash your videos and pictures in low light come out clear as day
.
The other great addition to the video capabilities of the new Apple iPhone 4 is a front facing camera. This addition allows video calls using a new feature called FaceTime. While it's now only available for iPhone 4 to iPhone 4 calls it is a very cool feature that over the coming months will surely expand to include other phones and features in the future.
Internal Hardware
Now that we've looked at the new features you can see on the outside let's look at what makes this phone outperform its competitors, the internal hardware. The new Apple iPhone 4 offers some of the most advanced hardware of any phone on the market.
The greatest hardware advancement in the new iPhone 4 is the processor, featuring Apple's A4 chip it boasts speeds of 1ghz which is 400mhz faster than the iPhone 3GS. Also helping speed up the new iPhone is 512mb of ram compared to the iPhone 3GS's 256mb. Just using the phone for a few minutes you can tell the amazing speed of the new handset.
One of the biggest complaints about most phones is the battery, and the Apple iPhone 4 features a battery that lasts 40% longer than the previous iPhone 3GS. While making the battery bigger and more powerful Apple also made the phone thinner, 24% thinner than the iPhone 3GS.
What helped enable the new iPhone 4 to be thinner than previous models was the new antenna design that integrated the phones antenna into the stainless steel band that runs along the edges of the phone. In addition to the glass front and back panels this new phone looks futuristic compared to other handsets.
Overall
Overall the Apple iPhone 4 is the greatest handset Apple has ever produced and their best selling product ever. With sales already in the 2 million range and stores struggling to keep them in stock worldwide, it will be a while before this phone is readily available everywhere.
With the new features and hardware the new iPhone is capable of more than ever at much faster speeds. The new antenna design also has shown to get better reception and the integrated Wireless N technology enables the fastest Wi-Fi speeds yet.
So if you can find one snap it up, there's no telling how demand will affect availability and this is not a phone you'll want to miss out on.
