Apple presents the new iPhone 4
Jobs has called it “the biggest leap since the original iPhone”. The new Apple iPhone 4 was announced yesterday at the Worldwide Developers Conference and buzz around Apple’s most recent gadget is growing rapidly.
Features of the new iPhone 4 include a Retina Display – the highest resolution ever built into a phone, the main features functions and most importantly (for me anyway), unlike its predecessors, the new Apple iPhone 4 now has the ability to capture clear video with a built in editing function, all in High Definition. With its LED flash, the iPhone 4 also doubles as a video light when recording and iMovie application is easily downloaded for a meagre $4.99. You can upload your video on to any platform you want and you don’t even need to go near a computer.
It seems Skype were left behind as Apple pioneered ahead creating their own application, FaceTime. What is FaceTime? Engage, connect. It doesn’t get any better. The iPhone comes with two cameras; the front camera for FaceTime – video conferencing or friends and family and the rear camera which is now 5 megapixels, is for photos and video. FaceTime is built into the new iPhone 4 so you can now make phone calls by using the front-facing camera that will enable us to see as well as hear each other whilst on the phone. And all in HD.
But. Here comes the but. The FaceTime application can only be used in WiFi zones and if the person you are calling does not have the iPhone 4 then don’t expect to take advantage of this feature. And if your from New Zealand you will have to hold out until July – at least you won’t have to wait in the early morning drizzle on Regent’s Street.
The Apple iPhone 4 means its all about video. The screen is four times sharper and with new iphone battery life improved through Multitasking that will help you navigate quickly through apps, this really is the new must have for this Summer. Unless, of course China come up with another cheaper copycat version (iPed vs iPad)!
competition- and goes on to say ‘the iPhone 4 is still lacking in some features.’ But the iPhone 4 is lighter and with its high resolution display I reckon a few minor details can be overlooked. Cased in stainless steel the iPhone 4 is available in black and white with the choice of 16GB or 32GB. If you pre order next week you can get the 16GB for a reduced $199. It will be available in shops from the 24th June (US, UK, Germany, France and Japan).
