Apple finally announced iPhone 4S – Price, Specs, Features

Apple has announced a next-generation iPhone, iPhone 4S in their “Lets Talk iPhone” event. Although outwardly they look identical to the iPhone 4, internally it has gone through many changes. It includes the same dual-core processor, the A5 debuted on the iPad 2 graphics card, which also offers a dual-core, up to 7 times the graphics performance of the iPhone 4S’s A4 chip.

Camera: The device also has an 8-megapixel camera and a new system Schiller said would be comparable to a point-and-shoot camera. The camera will be able to capture 73 percent more light, work 33 percent faster, and feature a hybrid infrared filter, which Schiller said is “the kind of stuff you talk about with high-end dSLRs.” It can shoot up to 3264 x 2448 images. A new signal processor enables face detection and 26 percent better white balance. The camera also works much faster than on previous models; Apple claims it takes only 1.1 seconds to take the first photo, with subsequent shots having a delay of only half a second. The improved camera also features true 1080p HD video recording and video stabilization, a first for the iPhone.

Internet speed: The new iPhone 4S runs on faster HSPA+ networks. That means that your telephone will download stuff faster from the Internet. Before it was up to 7.2 Megabits-per-second downloads. Now they claim two times as much: 14.4Mbps. This depends on the carrier, of course. I don’t know about you, but on AT&T I never get the maximum speed they claim.

Apple claims that, in real life situations, they are fast or “faster” as the competition’s phone on faster 4G networks. We will test that claim.

Siri: The Assistant Feature: Artificial intelligence-based speech recognition software “Siri” has been integrated into the device which lets user to make hotel reservations or search for a flight with voice commands. Using speech-recognition technology and the iPhone’s GPS capabilities, your command is translated and processed, only to confirm if it available or not. GPS features will provide you detailed Map to reach out the location.
