First of all: it looks exactly like the iPhone 4. Every speculations about a thinner phone, with a bigger screen and that wider capacitive home-button did (very sadly, in our opinion) not become real. Apple kept the changes in the inside. To sum up, it's the following:
- A5 dual-core processor
- 8MP rear camera recording in 1080p at 30 fps
- 16, 32 or 64GB of internal storage
- 3.5 inch IPS display at 960x640 pixels
- GSM and CDMA
- Bluetooth 4.0
- running iOS 5 (obviously)
In addition to that, it's got a new function called "Siri". It lets you do basically everything you can with your iPhone - but with your voice. Texting, browsing, calling someone etc. And it's supposed to work brilliant. But we'll see about that.
Wrap-up
Well, I suppose everyone can see that this doesn't even nearly get close to a revolutionary phone. With its dual-core processor, it barely catches up to current Android devices. Soon, even the screen will be outdated when the first phones with a HD-display hit the market (not to mention that 3.5 inches can't be taken seriously these times anymore). Trying to not punish Apple too hard, I have to say it is indeed a good phone. But for the price of $199 (16GB), $299 (32GB) or $399 (64GB) on contract, I want a brilliant phone.
However, if you think it's worth the money, you can place your order on October 7th and it will start shipping on October 14th.
