iPhone 4 has arrived
Today at the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference of 2010, Steve Jobs has unveiled the new iPhone. The fourth generation iPhone comes with the new iPhone 4.0 OS, and such features a slimmer design with glass casing. Two cameras (one front and one back with LED flash), reworked volume buttons, micro SIM card, second mic with noise cancellation. The metallic bezel of the case doubles up as a large antenna which helps boost the reception signal.
The new IPS screen has four times the amount of pixels compared to the original iPhone, with pixel density being 326 pixels per inch with a screen resolution of 960×640 and 800:1 contrast ratio. This results in a much sharper text. The phone is powered by the A4 CPU just like the iPad, and has an improved battery time with 7 hours talk time, 6 hours of 3G browsing, 10 hours of WiFi, 10 hours of video, 40 hours of music, and 300 hours of standby. There will be up to 32GB of storage, a gyroscope for up to 6 axis of motion sensing, along with 802.11n network adapter.
The camera on the back is 5 megapixels with 5x digital zoom and auto focus. The camera also records 720p HD video at 30 frames per second. You can keep the LED flash on while recording, and share it with just a few easy steps. Additionally there will also be a version of iMovie for the iPhone. The front facing camera enables video calling.
The operating system has been renamed to iOS 4, which will also be available for the older iPhones (3G and 3GS) and free for the iPod Touch. One of its biggest new additions is multitasking made in a way that would drain as little amount of battery power as possible while running multiple applications in the background. Other features included in the new OS are folders for sorting applications for easier access, social gaming network, ibooks, iads for in-app advertising, and more. Today, the iOS4 goes Gold master, which means that it’s close to being released to the general public.
The new iPhone will be available in white or black/ It goes on sale June 24th (pre-orders start June 15th) from AT&T and Apple, and will be priced as follows: $199 for 16gig and $299 for 32gig. More information is available on AT&T and Apple websites.

Hey tommorow is the day of the new iphone 4 – can you give me a good tip for a really good display-protection? I found some crappy things at amazon – 4x for 5 Euro, but these ones looks very cheap!
I signed up to ipad media all seems ok but I’m having problems getting the ebooks on. My friend in new york has theirs working but I’m stuck on what I need to do. Anyone else used this service? Link is below,
iPhone 4 like a higher-quality display and front-facing camera were helping to whip up interest in the phone.
Hey man, was just browsing on the internet searching for some information and came across your blog. I am impressed by the information that you have on this blog. It shows how well you understand this subject. Marked this page, will come back for more. You, my friend, ROCK!!!
GEEZ!I did a crazy long response to your post but my internet cut out and I lost it all! Oh well, just wanted to tell you that it was a great article! Awesome!
Im not convinced TBH but interesting comments. Just my opinion, but a few more pics would have been nice.
The battery life on the iPhone 4 has been outstanding thus far, exceeding our expectations for longevity during testing.
Sound is much better on both ends of the call, thanks in part to a noise-canceling microphone and an improved audio chamber (which also helps speakerphone and music sound).
My cousin recommended this blog and she was totally right keep up the fantastic work!
