NEW iPhone 4G Release likely around June 24 2010

Lots of speculation is going around on the new iPhone 4g... in HD!! Official features have been revealed at the WWDC conference today.



Verizon Wireless is currently testing a CDMA version of the iPhone 4G and Verizon confirms they are making network changes to bring the iphone to their network. The new iPhone 4g is going to be loaded with awesome new features like video chat, multi-tasking and extreme downloading. (List of possible features below). Just when you think there is nothing else to come up with, more and more and more technology comes out. And it is on the rise, and not just at Apple, Inc!

This iPhone 4g could also have dual core processors and higher and powerful graphic chips that can deliver higher video resolutions and better "still" images when taking pictures.

There are a few networks working on building a 4G network. T-mobile would be a likely carrier since they are GSM already. Sprint has a 4G network already... AT&T and Verizon Wireless are in the beginning stages. There are talks of Verizon Wireless getting iPhone sometime in 2010 since the exclusive contract with AT&T expires, but it could be renewed until 2012.

Whether or not it will be 4G will be up to them!... can they build in time? Regardless, there is much anticipation on how many people will leave AT&T for Verizon Wireless because of AT&T's lagging on app restrictions like Slingplayer and Google Voice and Skype (on #g network, not Wi-Fi).

AT&T's restrictions have caused the percentage of people that are JailBreaking their iPhones to rise since Jail Breaking usually comes with Cydia which is the app store for jail broken phones. Most of the applications, ringtones, and even iphone themes!...are free with Cydia. Winterboard is part of the download, and it very easily add's the changes to your phone so you dont have to figure how to do it on your own...it is VERY automated.

The Palm Pre on Sprint and HTC EVO (Sprint now offering a 4G network) has made an attempt at being competitive with iPhone and Blackberry...and it seems they are making head way.

iPhone 4G looks promising in terms of being sleek, packed with new hardware and multi-tasking software. Very exciting.

A few features of iPhone 4G:

Thinner! With shiny glass back piece - 9.3 mm thick.

Unified Mailbox (all email accounts in one area).

Application folders.

New wallpaper/background options.

A new, sleeker body design.

OLED screen.

Multi-Tasking. (use multiple functions at once without going in and out of apps).

iChat camera (on the front so you can have video chat!!!).

32G (basic) and 64G of memory. You're sure to never run out.

Extended battery life!!!

Hi Definition Camera (5 megapixel) with a backside illuminated sensor AND FLASH!

Hi Definition Camcorder.

Hi Definition audio.

Messaging light.

True GPS built in.

Introduction to iPhone 4

Since the introduction of iPhone (EDGE) in 2007, Apple remained the unipolar champion of the smartphone world. But its unchallenged supremacy has now been challenged by other stalwarts like Google’s Android, and the upcoming Windows Phone 7 Series by Microsoft. It will be obligatory for Apple to bring some innovative changes to the device and it just cannot afford the luxury of cooling its heels. In the meanwhile, Android continues to gather momentum, and whereas it lacks iPhone’s content and elegance, yet it has started matching Apple in terms of features.

iPhone 4 - HD

Apple has no option but to leap ahead of the competition once again this summer, where it is expected to be launching its 4th generation iPhone. Steve Jobs has reportedly confirmed an "A+ update" for iPhone, and that "Apple will deliver aggressive updates to iPhone that Android/Google won’t be able to keep up with". But what should we all expect from the new device? Some speculations and expectations from the new device are in the ensuing paragraphs.

As far as the name is concerned, it will mostly likely going to be called something on the lines of iPhone 4, or iPhone HD as Engadget found out a few days ago. It is expected to ship with a major new iPhone OS update – the iPhone 4.0 firmware. John Gruber of Daring Fireball the other day hinted at a possible 960×640 display, which is higher than the best of the best Android phones like Nexus One and EVO 4G, or even the WinMo based HD2 – which features a 800×400 resolution screen. Some other facts which are making the rounds for the said device are listed as follows.

* Apple A4 CPU like iPad
* A Front-facing camera for video conferencing
* To be released on June 7 at WWDC
* Multitasking for third party apps
* Coming to Verizon and AT&T

Apart from these specs, another important aspect will be the form factor for the new iPhone. Yes, iPhone is still one of the most sexy gadgets to have but come on, the look and feel is now getting old and is need of a change. It’s been three years now that we have had hold almost the same looking device. The original iPhone (EDGE) had rugged metallic back and therefore was heavy, where as later on, iPhone 3G/3GS series were lighter as it had plastic back. While the use of plastics was practical in terms of signal strength, but for some, it gave a cheap look and feel in the hand. Looking at the popularity of unibody Aluminum enclosure of MacBook Pro, it will be only wise for Apple now to introduce an aluminum unibody makeover for the next-gen iPhone 4 as well. This will give it a unique look in comparison to its competitors today, just like how different MacBook Pros are in the PC market. This unibody enclosure concept for the iPhone can be seen in the image attached above.
