Last week saw the launch of Apple's much anticipated iPhone 4S (Not the iPhone 5 the world expected!). Unfortunately last week also saw the very sad passing of Steve Jobs. Our sincere condolences go out to his family and everyone at Apple.
The iPhone 4S is Apples latest offering which is a more powerful, responsive and
efficient iPhone.
So what's the iPhone 4S got that the iPhone 4 hasn't?
At Xpango we reviewed the new model and made a short summary:
The new A5 processor - Apple's new A5 chip delivers twice as much power and up to
seven times faster graphics than the earlier iPhone 4. This makes the iPhone
4S quicker and responsive, which makes all the difference when you’re
launching apps, browsing the web, gaming and doing just about everything.
An 8
Mega-Pixel Camera - The
iPhone 4S has a new 8-megapixel resolution and a custom lens with a larger f/2.4
aperture. (60% more pixels than the iPhone 4) The iPhone 4S also boasts improvements to backside illumination, auto
white balance, advanced colour accuracy, face detection and reduced motion
blur sensors.
Shoot stunning
1080p HD video - With the iPhone 4S’ new optics, the light is always right,
the colour is always vivid and everything will look better than you
remember. Video stabilisation steadies
shaky shots; and you can edit and share video’s as fast as you shoot!
Siri -Apple have introduced their latest addition to the iPhone 4S
– Siri
Siri on iPhone 4S lets you use your voice to send messages,
schedule meetings, make phone calls and more.
Ask Siri to do things just by talking the way you talk. Siri understands what you say, knows what you
mean and even talks back. It searches the web for anything and
everything you need to know. It plays the songs you want to hear. It makes calls. It schedules meetings. It helps you remember. And it wakes you up. Siri tells you almost everything. And it even speaks for itself!
In Summary...
So
what do we think? The iPhone 4S is has received some big upgrades so it should be faster and allow for quicker
multi-tasking with the addition of the new A5 chip.
The new 8 mega pixel camera and 1080p recording will match the quality of the Samsung Galaxy 2 so it should be popular with anybody who uses their phone as their main camera or can't afford to carry both.
The original upgrades from the iPhone 4 are also still there such as the Facetime, Airtplay and Airprint so the iPhone 4S really is a more refined model.
The most talked about feature on the iPhone 4S is Siri. Some people are saying that the "S" stands for Siri!
Siri will be a great addition to people that need organisation. The system can book meetings, remind you to call someone when you walk out of the office and research for you while you're on the move!
