Apple iPhone 4 Review

The newly launched Apple iPhone 4 has created quite a stir in the market. In fact, it can be safely said that no other new phone has generated so much excitement as the iPhone 4. Steve Jobs has managed to once again pique the curiosity of his audience.

The iPhone 4 claims to have a zillion new features that are out to woo the audience. HD video recording, a super high-res screen, all-glass front, stainless steel casing, and the tag of the “thinnest smartphone on the planet…how can you expect people not to get enticed and covet this phone?

Unlike its predecessors, the iPhone 4 has volume controls on the side of the phone and there is also an accessible microSIM tray. The iPhone 4 has a front-facing camera while at the back there’s a microphone, a speaker, and a 30pin connector for docking. At the top is a second microphone for noise cancellation, a headset input, and sleep/wake button.

Almost everything about the iPhone 4 is likeable. It has a slick interface and the phone seems to react almost intuitively to your touch. Apple has also revamped the battery life of this phone and made it comparatively better than the other models.

As for the things that could be better, we obviously wish that it was a little more reasonably priced. The iPhone 4 does show huge tech improvements but the current price does seem to be an obscene amount to pay for a phone.

If you’ve been dreaming about holding the iPhone 4 in your hands, but have been waiting to see what the reviews are going to be like, you can safely go ahead and buy this smartphone. There’s really no reason for you to hold out. You won’t be disappointed by the iPhone 4.
