Our iPhone 4 has just turned up at the Geeky Gadgets office, so we decided to take some photos of it being unboxed. I think this is the first unboxing post we have ever done here at Geeky Gadgets.
As you can see from the photos, the iPhone 4 features a new design. It is much slimmer than the iPhone 3GS, and the design is less rounded. There is also a new aluminum body design and a new screen, which looks pretty impressive so far.
Design and Build Quality
The iPhone 4’s design marks a significant departure from its predecessors. The new aluminum body not only adds a premium feel but also enhances durability. The flat edges and glass front and back panels give it a sleek, modern look. This design choice also makes the device feel more solid and less prone to slipping out of your hand compared to the more rounded iPhone 3GS.
The new screen, dubbed the Retina Display, boasts a resolution of 960 x 640 pixels, which is four times the resolution of the iPhone 3GS. This results in incredibly sharp text and images, making everything from reading emails to watching videos a more enjoyable experience. The improved display is one of the standout features of the iPhone 4, and it sets a new standard for smartphone screens.
Performance and Features
Under the hood, the iPhone 4 is powered by Apple’s A4 chip, the same processor found in the original iPad. This ensures that the device is not only fast but also efficient, providing a smooth user experience whether you’re browsing the web, playing games, or multitasking between apps. The iPhone 4 also comes with 512MB of RAM, double that of the iPhone 3GS, which further enhances its performance capabilities.
One of the most talked-about features of the iPhone 4 is its camera system. The rear camera has been upgraded to 5 megapixels and now includes an LED flash, making it capable of taking high-quality photos even in low-light conditions. The camera also supports HD video recording at 720p, allowing you to capture your favorite moments in stunning detail. Additionally, the front-facing camera introduces the possibility of video calls through Apple’s FaceTime feature, which was a groundbreaking addition at the time.
As soon as we have our new iPhone 4 hooked up to iTunes and activated, we will be posting some more information, including our initial impressions on the iPhone 4 and iOS 4. Make sure you have a look at our article on the difference between the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S.
The iPhone 4 represents a significant leap forward in terms of design, performance, and features. Its sleek new look, improved display, and enhanced camera system make it a worthy upgrade from the iPhone 3GS. Stay tuned for our in-depth review and initial impressions once we’ve had more time to explore everything this impressive device has to offer.
