iPhone 4 Launched
iPhone 4 is thinner than its predecessors but it manages to pack in a faster processor, as well as an improved camera system for capturing high-resolution footage and video-chatting.
Apple® today announced that it has sold over 1.7 million of its iPhone® 4 through Saturday, June 26, just three days after its launch on June 24. Apple sold one million units of the iPhone 3G during its launch weekend in 2008 and it repeated the feat a year later with the iPhone 3GS.
However, strong first-day sales have been marred by user complaints of reception issues with the iPhone 4.
Apple has subsequently admitted that gripping the lower left corner of the device could indeed affect its antenna performance and the company is rumoured to be on the brink of releasing a software fix for the problem.
The new iPhone 4 features FaceTime®, which makes video calling as easy as one tap, and Apple’s new Retina display, the highest resolution display ever built into a phone, resulting in stunning text, images and video.
iPhone 4 also features a 5 megapixel camera with LED flash, HD 720p video recording, Apple’s A4 processor, a 3-axis gyro and up to 40 percent longer talk time—in a beautiful all-new design of glass and stainless steel that is the thinnest smartphone in the world.
iPhone 4 comes with iOS 4, the newest version of the world’s most advanced mobile operating system, which features Multitasking, Folders, enhanced Mail, deeper Enterprise support and Apple’s new iAd mobile advertising platform.
