Before giving the good news I would like to explain some details on how the new iphone 4G was found and how we can be sure that it really is the new iphone. Well the first fact is that Apple's engineer Gray Powell was celebrating his birthday at a German bar in California, and th iphone dropped from his pocket. A young man found it and asked the people around if any of them lost an iphone. (This clearly seems strange as the iphone is totally different, however there is an explanation for this, apple had the new iphone inside a fake iphone 3gs cover and with this the person who found it thought it was actualy a 3GS.) The person that found it mentioned that he even played with the device for some time and gave the bar his phone number if someone called for the device. In the morning he went to the phone in order to see if someone called however the phone did not turn on. After trying to get it back to work he noticed that the 3GS cover opened and revealed a totally new device. The first thing he did was to call apple and tell them that they lost a prototype iphone, but the attendants thought it was a joke and gave him a protocol number which he never heard about again. Finally gizmodo contacted him and bought the phone for 5,000 dollars (which I find to be a very small amount when talking about the new generation iphone). After tarring it apart they found it to be very similar to the iphone 3GS which made them think they had the iphone 4G in hands. The last factor that proves that I am not retelling a story in order for the Gizmodo to make money is that Apple sent them a letter in order to obtain the prototype back. With this there is no doubt that they really had the iphone 4G in hand. Now there are two questions that I can't answer that are: What happened to the iphone? and Is Apple going to change the design? (this would cost them a lot of money) Even though there is one question I can answer and that many people want to know. What is new in the iphone 4G?!
Here you have...
What's new
• Front-facing video chat camera
• Improved regular back-camera (the lens is quite noticeably larger than the iPhone 3GS)
• Camera flash
• Micro-SIM instead of standard SIM (like the iPad)
• Improved display. It's unclear if it's the 960x640 display thrown around before—it certainly looks like it, with the "Connect to iTunes" screen displaying much higher resolution than on a 3GS.
• What looks to be a secondary mic for noise cancellation, at the top, next to the headphone jack
• Split buttons for volume
• Power, mute, and volume buttons are all metallic
What's changed
• The back is entirely flat, made of either glass (more likely) or ceramic or shiny plastic in order for the cell signal to poke through. Tapping on the back makes a more hollow and higher pitched sound compared to tapping on the glass on the front/screen, but that could just be the orientation of components inside making for a different sound
• An aluminum border going completely around the outside
• Slightly smaller screen than the 3GS (but seemingly higher resolution)
• Everything is more squared off
• 3 grams heavier
• 16% Larger battery
• Internals components are shrunken, miniaturized and reduced to make room for the larger battery
