Apple CEO Steve Jobs calls it "the biggest leap since the original iPhone." And he has enough reason to brag. The new iPhone 4 comes packed with innovative features.
The iPhone 4's 3.5-inch Retina display has a 960x640 pixel resolution — four times as many pixels as the iPhone 3GS and 78 percent of the pixels on an iPad
Apple claims that the iPhone 4 is the thinnest smartphone ever at 9.3 millimetres.
Phone 4 features a 5 megapixel autofocus camera with a 5x digital zoom, a backside illuminated sensor and built-in LED flash. The phone can record and edit HD video and the tap to focus feature now works while recording video. The LED flash can be used for both still photography and video recording.
The new iMovie app for iPhone lets users combine movie clips, add transitions and themes and include photos and music.
Apple also included video chat on the iPhone in the form of FaceTime.
The iPhone 4 has a built-in 3-axis gyro that when combined with the accelerometer provides 6-axis motion sensing such as up and down, side to side, forward and backward and pitch and roll, making it ideal for gaming.
The phone comes with iOS 4, the newest version of Apple's mobile operating system. iOS features multitasking, folders, and Apple's new iAd mobile advertising platform.
iPhone 4 delivers seven hours of talk time on 3G networks, up to 10 hours of web browsing on Wi-Fi and up to six hours on 3G, and up to 10 hours of video playback and up to 40 hours of audio playback
The latest iPhone is powered by Apple's new A4 processor.
The iPhone 4 also features a second microphone and offers 802.11n Wi-Fi networking and adds quad-band HSUPA to provide 7.2Mbps downlink and 5.8Mbps uplink capability.
The iPhone 4 comes in either black or white and will be available in the US for a retail price of $ 199 for the 16GB model and $ 299 for the 32GB model. It will be available in the US, France, Germany, Japan and the UK on June 24.
