Posted by Augusto Triste under Interviews, Tricks, Videos on Sunday Jun 21, 2009New iPhone 3G S – S for Speed
Posted by Augusto Triste under Updates, iPhone on Thursday Jun 11, 2009The new iPhone 3G is pretty similar to the current model from outside but from inside has a lot of new features and new hardware.
The Fastest iPhone Ever
The first thing you’ll notice about iPhone 3G S is how quickly you can launch applications. Web pages render in a fraction of the time, and you can view email attachments faster. Improved performance and updated 3D graphics deliver an incredible gaming experience, too. In fact, everything you do on iPhone 3G S is up to 2x faster and more responsive than ever.
Video
Now you can shoot video, edit it and share it — all on your iPhone 3G S. Shoot high-quality VGA video in portrait
or landscape. Trim your footage by adjusting start and end points. Then share your video in an email, post it to your MobileMe gallery, publish it on YouTube or sync it back to your Mac or PC using iTunes.
3-Megapixel Camera
The new 3-megapixel camera takes great still photos, too, thanks to built-in autofocus and a handy new feature that lets you tap the display to focus on anything (or anyone) you want.
Voice Control
Voice Control recognises the names in your Contacts and knows the music on your iPod. So if you want to place a call or play a song, all you have to do is ask.
Compass
With a built-in digital compass, iPhone 3G S can point the way. Use the new Compass app or watch as it automatically reorients maps to match the direction you’re facing.
Cut, Copy & Paste
Cut, copy and paste words and photos, even between applications. Copy and paste images and content from the web, too.
Landscape Keyboard
Want more room to type on the intelligent software keyboard? Rotate iPhone to landscape to use a larger keyboard in Mail, Messages, Notes and Safari.
Internet Tethering
Surf the web from practically anywhere. Now you can share the 3G connection on your iPhone with your Mac notebook or PC laptop
