iPhone 4s

4 Oct

During today’s “Let’s Talk iPhone” conference, Apple’s CEO Tim Cook has unveiled their “new-old” iPhone4s.

Apple’s new iPhone 4S is just last year’s design loaded with a new brain and more memory.

Design
It’s the same old design as the iPhone 4. Nothing to say here. Same materials, same look.

CPU and Graphics
The iPhone 4S now has the iPad 2′s dual-core A5 CPU and dual-core graphics.

New Camera
8 megapixels CMOS backside illuminated sensor – compared to the previous 5 megapixels.

HD Video
The camera now shots video at 1080p video with real-time image stabilization and temporal noise reduction.

New Antenna Design
First phone to have 2 built in antennas, presumably to solve the signal attenuation problem.

Storage
The iPhone comes now with 16, 32 and 64GB of storage.

Siri, the smart assistant
Apple is also including Siri in the iPhone 4S, which will only run in this model (and presumably the iPad 2). The reason is the need for a faster A5 processor.
The key about Siri, according to Apple, is that it isn’t just voice recognition. It really understands natural language and follows complex commands. It actually interprets what you are saying. You don’t talk to it using commands. You just talk to it like you would talk to another person. So instead of asking “tell me the weather today” you can just say “Do I need a raincoat?” and it will reply “It sure does look like rain today!”

Price
The iPhone 4S would be available in black and white. The 16GB model would be $199, 32GB for $299 and 64GB for $399. The iPhone 4 would still be available in black for $99. All these prices require a contract.

Availability
You can pre-order the iPhone 4S on October 7. It will be available on AT&T, Verizon and Sprint on October 14.
