Cell phones seem to get sleeker and slimmer by the day, and the Apple iPhone 4 is no exception. Its new design attracts the eye, a design that is appreciably thinner than the iPhone 3GS. Whereas the iPhone 3GS is 12.3mm thick, the iPhone 4 is only 9.3mm deep for a reduction in size of about 24%. Additionally, the iPhone 4 is narrower, measuring 59mm to 62mm. The weight of the iPhone 4 has stayed the same as its predecessor at 136g, but the dimensional alterations lead to a less bulky perception. Changes in design are of course just the tip of the cell phone iceberg. Where the Apple iPhone 4 really shines is in the technological department. After all, beauty is only skin deep. Maintaining the 3.5-inch display of the iPhone 3GS, the iPhone 4 doubles the resolution of its display to 960 by 640 pixels. The IPS display is comprised of 326 pixels per inch, making it the highest resolution phone available. Also featured on the iPhone 4 is the “Retina display.” The name refers to the fact that the display is greater in number of pixels than the human retina is able to process. The high number of pixels brings a new level of performance in sharpness, clarity, and detail of the images seen on the phone. The in-plane switching (IPS) techniques found on all iMac and iPad displays also appears on the iPhone 4. The bright, lustrous display and its huge viewing angle make images look excellent from any position. Apple’s A4 CPU, the same one found in the iPad, powers the iPhone 4. Its operating system is the iOS 4, which provides a large number of capabilities to the iPhone 4. Multitasking may be the most welcome capability. It seems too long in the making, but Apple has taken the time to ensure that the multitasking is done smoothly, just like the copy and paste feature that took some time in being released. Camera and video advancements are also welcome enhancements to the iPhone 4. The primary camera has received a boost from 3 to 5 megapixels. This is accomplished with the same size pixels. Also new is an LED flash, backlit sensor and a 5X integrated zoom. High-def video is now possible at 720p and 30 frames per second. The tap-to-focus feature previously found only on the camera is now included on the video recorder. Owners of the original iPhone and the iPhone 3G will certainly want to make the jump to the Apple iPhone 4. Previously, with the advance of the iPhone 3G to the 3GS, Apple focused on small enhancements in performance. With the iPhone 4, digital imaging was the priority as well as the display. These encompassing augmentations make the iPhone 4 the phone to beat.
