iPhone 4 is here guys!


Ok, first things first. The all new iPhone 4 has been launched at WWDC'10 by Steve himself and here's all you needed to quench that speculative appetite of your mind.

Its special/flagship features include:
  • Extremely high screen resolution
  • Video Chat Capability with FaceTime
  • Amazingly cool new form factor


Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome the all new "squared" design for iPhone 4, after 3 long years of battle with the iconic design, continued till iPhone 3G and 3GS sequels:



I guess this design change was one expected by all of us and we would really enjoy the sexy new body in our palm(s).

At just 4.5×2.31×0.37 inches, it weighs 137 grams which is slightly higher than its 3GS predecessor.
The steel rim that you can notice here in the first pic above is actually the phone's antenna, which would solve your concerns about signal problems as the whole phone is now receiving signals for you.




All old iPhones had 480X320 pixels but iPhone 4 carries 960X640 pixels in its 3.5'' display packing about 326 pixels per inch, that's even more than EVO 4G's 800X480 pixels.

The PPI (Pixels Per Inch) is so high that as per Steve, "it even surpasses the human eye's threshold to differentiate between pixels". The contrast ratio is at crazy 800:1

So u needed that extra set of MP's (Megapixels) on your phone right?



This lovely device comes with 5MP camera with flash and a frontal camera, perfect for video chat. I am speculating that there should be a function available where you can keep switching between front and rear cameras if you wanna share with your mates if you spot a sexy sedan or an elegant lady in that party you visited. I am really keen on its video streaming for now.



Ok so you wanted a new operating system?
So here is the all new iOS 4. Well, we'll decide how good it is right?



The Processor?
iPhone 4 runs on an A4 processor, nearly same as the one in iPad (as per Mr. Jobs)
 

You can expect up to 40% battery life improvement due to this high efficiency of A4. Add that to 16% larger battery size. What do u get? 7h 3G talk, 6h 3G browsing, 10h Wi-Fi, 10h video and 300h standby time.

You can also play lot more games on this one as it has 3-axis gyroscope, which definitely is at least 1 more axis and therefore new ball game altogether, over the accelerometer on iPhones.

Available by 24th June in UK, US, Germany, Japan and France, without contract cost will be $599 for 16 GB and $699 for 32 GB.

3G support will be discontinued and 3GS will see major slash in prices over next 1 month.

What? Nintendo wants to launch an HD phone too now?

  1. Can a video call app be transcendent if it’s nowhere near as pervasive as something like Skype, and only works when you’re in the vicinity of Wi-Fi?

  3. Only Steve Jobs could have said this to the media guys who had 500+ base stations using Wi-fi in the room because of which the presentation had a glitch: "If you want to see the demos, turn off the wi-fi's shut off your pc's, put it on the ground please!"

  4. 600,000 iPhone 4's pre-ordered on day one. Guess it might cross the 1 Mn mark on second day only. That tells a lot about the numbers they are looking for this year. Isn't that true?
