The recent delivery of the Apple iPhone 4 has seen the most excitement for a mobile phone release ever, in history! The new iPhone 4 is faster stronger and a millennium ahead of the iPhone 3GS. With HD video recording, a huge flash drive and a super high resolution display this new arrival to the Apple phone roster will launch to success within its first day never mind its first week.

The phone has only a few visual similarities to the 3GS, the front and back casing are made of stress tested glass and they are separated by a steel strip which runs round the sides, top and bottom of the chassis. Overall the phone is a visual feast of shiny glass, steel trim and a beautiful 3.5 inch capacitive touch display, the iPhone 4 is very comfortable to hold and you can feel the quality of the chassis build, the device feels strong and it gives you a sense of reliability.

The device runs on the new iOS 4 operating system, the interface has been specifically designed for multi-touch functionality and from the moment you pick up the new iPhone 4 you already knowhow to use it. The interface is fun to play with as the phone responds to any shape or movement of your hand; this is great as some of the 200,000 apps require some obscure control.

The phone has two cameras; the 5 mega pixel camera on the back handles your high resolution still photo’s, with LED flash, tap-focus and geo tagging thrown in for the serous snappers and a whole range of integrated and downloadable tools for image editing, the impressive HD video recorder shoots at 30 fps and works wonderfully in any light conditions to deliver a truly perfect filming experience. The camera on the front allows you to take self portrait’s and it supports the iPhone 4′s FaceTime feature; FaceTime is more like a face-to-face conversation than a phone call, other iPhone 4 users can contact you or be contacted via this feature so emotion and facial expressions can be savoured.

The awesome 3.5 inch retina display has an auto rotate sensor, it also has 326 pixels per inch which adds up to 960 x 640 pixel resolution, this is 4 x more then the 3GS and according to the developers the screen has such a high resolution the naked eye cant even comprehend. No matter how close you zoom in on text in the web browser the text remains solid and clear and images are rendered to perfection even in the highest zoom factor. This Retina Display is a work of art and gives you a real insight into to the direction manufacturers are taking mobile technology in the future.

As you would expect from Apple the iPhone 4 has full internet coverage with advanced  Wi Fi and 3G technology which enables you to keep a constant link to e-mail inboxes, social networks and your favourite news feeds. The web browser is fully interactive to your touch and utilises the multi-touch functionality to its fullest; pinching, pulling, twisting and tapping.

The iPhone 4 comes complete with a fully functional media centre for video and audio playback, the 3.5mm jack lets you plug in your favourite headphones for personal listening and the in-built speakers deliver a brilliant stereo sound. There is a FM Radio tuner pre-installed and with Bluetooth technology you can team your device with other compatible devices for extra functions or wireless file transfers. The iPhone 4 comes well equipped with either a 16GB or 32GB flash drive and with a full selection of colourful bumpers and full App Store exposure you have almost endless opportunities for device personalization. This phone is AWESOME!
