Information On The IPhone 4
Sunday, August 1st, 2010The Apple iPhone 4 has a design that really sets it apart from the competition. Its slim design is even thinner than the iPhone 3GS. The iPhone 4 measures 9.3mm deep while the iPhone 3GS measures 12.3 mm deep, making it about 24% less in size. The iPhone 4 measures 59mm to 62mm side to side, making it narrower than the 3GS as well. Although the weight is the same at 136g, the changes in the iPhone 4’s dimensions make it less bulky than the 3GS. Of course, the iPhone 4 offers much more than just cosmetic enhancements. What makes this phone so welcome is what has been changed and updated inside of the handset. As with its predecessor, Apple iPhone 4 comes with a 3.5-inch display, but the new phone’s display doubles the resolution – 960-by-640-pixel. At 326 pixels per inch, this means that phone has the highest resolution screen display available on a phone to date. The display provides an incredible level of sharpness, clarity, and image detail. Dubbed the “Retina display,” it obtained the name because of its ability to process an even higher number of pixels than the human retina. The iPhone 4 screen has in-plane switching, or IPS, capabilities that are found in all iMac and iPad displays. Because of this, you get a vibrant, colorful display that looks terrific regardless of how it’s held due to large viewing angle. The Apple iPhone 4 contains the company’s A4 CPU. This is the same processor found in the Apple iPad. Running on the iOS 4 operating system, a number of capabilities are available to the Apple iPhone 4. The recently renamed iOS 4 provides the long-awaited multitasking function. Just as with the welcome and long awaited copy and paste feature, Apple has come through by making the multitasking feature operate without a hitch. Size advancements and the addition of multitasking are not the only achievements of the iPhone 4. Advancements in camera and video recording devices are also a welcome improvement. The camera found on the back has changed from 3 megapixels to a more robust 5 megapixels with the same size pixel. An LED flash and a backlit sensor augment the camera. It also comes with and integrated 5X zoom. Video can now be shot in high definition at 720p and 30 frames per second. Additionally, the tap-to-focus feature found on the camera is now available on the video recorder. Anyone who owns an iPhone or iPhone 3G should consider the iPhone 4 a must own. Including design changes that are pleasing to the eye, the iPhone 4 has made technological advances that improve its performance as well as its imaging capabilities. These changes make it a noticeable upgrade to previous incarnations of the iPhone.
