So the recent Apple keynote has come and gone and the new iPhone 4 is now officially released to the world despite the odd test model getting 'lost'.
In reading the specs and having watched the videos on the Apple website I can't wait to get my hands on the phone. Apple have added the A4 processor (the processor that makes the iPad so fast) coupled with a larger battery so we will be able to enjoy a long lasting and speedier experience. The addition of the better rear camera (now 5 megapixels) and a VGA front facing camera allows for video conferencing (Apple even have a new app called FaceTime) although only over WiFi initially.
The better camera allows for HD (720p) video recording and there is finally digital zoom (5x) a feature I am always looking for every time I try and take a picture with the current 3gs phone.
But beyond all that good stuff...this phone must be the most beautifully designed piece of tech I have ever seen. Johnny Ive has worked his magic yet again, who wouldn't want to hold and use one of these baby's.
The only negative for me is that Apple are going to be instituting a phased rollout meaning we will have to wait a month to get our hands on the new phones here in Australia :(
It is as it is!
