The new Concept of iPhone 4G looks like an iMac phone

It is not much since the iPhone 4G launch and a new concept of iPhone 4G appeared on internet. Seems like the a new version iPhone 4G will be available. of This concept subtly updated the iPhone 4G from a mysterious designer hdi is really amazing, it’s simple and beautiful. This iPhone 4G version has a mixture of glass and aluminum as the iMac. And indeed, after the note, there may be some disappointment on the part some, or not, so leave the iPhone 4G true that Apple will launch in the near future. Soon the IPAD will launched, ultrathin computer from Apple and iPhone 4G announces the American company for the fourth quarter of this year. The information was given on Wednesday by Roberto Lima, President of Vivo, commenting on the results of the first half of this year.
But Apple has another problem to face until the launch of the iPhone 4G, the antenna problem. If you are one of the lucky owners of the new iPhone 4G, certainly will be thinking in a thousand ways to maintain the integrity of the device, after all is not everyday that you buy an iPhone 4g smartphone from Apple. There are numerous iPhone 4G covers and cases in the market for all tastes and styles, we selected one in particular for its originality and love of nature, the case is made of bamboo and decorated with super minimalist designs and delicate. You can also create your own template through the page that offers dozens of possibilities to create a unique cover for your iPhone 4G phone.
The company that develops the iPhone 4G cases is called Grove Made and sells the cases for $ 50 if you do pre-order. Otherwise it will cost $ 99. A little salty, but the salt shaker is little compared to the price of the iPhone 4G smartphone itself. This is an idea that was suggested by several industry observers, Apple admits the mistake and sends the cases free of plastic and rubber for all iPhone 4G owners. The case is thick and no driver would fix the problem of the iPhone 4G antenna, but the company’s reputation would suffer from technical brilliance. But remember that you have experienced the plan B, duct tape free for all. As the Consumer Reports and other sites have noted, a piece of adhesive tape applied strategically at the junction of the antennas of the iPhone 4G is an effective repair, despite the ugly.
That, no doubt, would be the worst situation for Apple. The company conducts a recall of four million iPhones 4G already sold / shipped and fixes the problem provided, of course, can be a quick and easy.
Ready for the iPhone 4G? Maybe it’s time for Apple to shorten their annual cycle of upgrading the iPhone 4G and launch a new model as soon as possible – a camera, of course, that does not suffer the problems of antenna current model. In a perfect world, the iPhone 4G owners would get a free upgrade. Despite this act of kindness for the consumer will probably cost a small fortune for Apple, the company has had high returns in recent years and could certainly afford it.
This would be the most stupid approach, and one that would send the four potential iPhone 4G owners rush for smartphones based on Android (Google’s operating system), which are already experiencing an explosive growth market. Unfortunately, it seems closer to Apple’s strategy thus far. With users in media sites and forums already expressing doubts about the explanation of the strange company for the problems of antenna of the iPhone 4G, doing nothing could be a disaster.

Apple coughs to iPhone 3G IOS 4 upgrade problems Where are we now?

iPhone 3G users who've upgraded to iOS 4 are discovering that the roaming switch isn't working any more, for those on O2's network at least.

Apple's new OS isn't running as smoothly as intended; users report the upgrade causes slow-downs and freezes, not to mention draining the battery and running up unexpected roaming bills, all of which should be keeping the Cupertino engineers busy for a while.

Apple confirmed, to the Wall Street Journal, that it is investigating reports that some users upgrading their older iPhones to iOS 4 have seen the life sucked from the beloved handsets as the new OS increases the energy drain while slowing down the interface.

Meanwhile several Reg readers have been in touch to report that their upgraded handsets have run up considerable bills while travelling, despite the fact that data connections when roaming were switched firmly off.

All the complaints we've heard, and seen posted on the Apple support forums, are from O2 customers, and the operator told us that it's aware of the problem and is investigating the issue in conjunction with Apple.

Whether the problem is restricted to O2's users, or if it's just because there are more iPhone users on the O2 network (or even down to O2 having more customers in the jet set) we've not been able to establish, but if you've upgraded to iOS 4 then take care when travelling abroad.

Luckily, for all its faults, the new OS does include a function to switch off cellular data manually, rather than relying on the phone to detect when it's on a foreign network, which deals with that problem. Still, if your handset is overheating, freezing or just generally running slowly then you'll have to wait for Apple to investigate

A big iFuss over the latest gadget

THE aerial doesn't work when you hold it in your left hand - but iFans are still excited for the release of the new iPhone.

The iPhone 4 is the thinnest smartphone in the world and includes more than 100 new features.

It has a five megapixel camera and the highest resolution display ever built into a phone. It also has a three-axis gyro and allows up to 40 per cent longer talk time.

Scroll down to read our tech expert's review

But this latest Apple gadget is not without its flaws. A glitch in the design has caused the phone's antenna to lose signal when held in the left hand. But Apple has already promised to supply every iPhone 4 buyer with a free "bumper" case - which will address the fault.

Telstra area general manager Mark Sweet said he was looking forward to bringing the next generation of iPhone to Australians on the country's largest and fastest national mobile network. Rival telco Optus is also plugging the device, claiming the company's dual band network means those in the Northern Territory will be able to use the iPhone to the full capacity for the first time.

But amidst the hype, Apple accessory makers expressed concern that Apple's promise to give iPhone 4 buyers free cases could cripple the industry.

Successful Melbourne-based iPhone accessory maker Cygnett has made 36 cases for the new-look smartphone, but chief executive Gary Newman said Apple's decision to give away a free case with every phone could significantly eat into accessory purchases.

"Every case you give away is one case that probably won't get purchased,'' Mr Newman said.

"But it will be a question of how many people are satisfied with a black bumper on their phone versus how many people want to personalise it.''

The offer for a free case will be available until September 30.

Apple recently called the new phone the "most successful'' Apple product to date after selling 1.7 million models in three days.

The phone costs $859 (16GB) or $999 (32GB) outright.

Revealed: The hapless Apple engineer who lost top-secret 4G iPhone prototype after a beer-fuelled night out

It has happened to most of us at some point: you arrive home after a night out and can’t remember what on earth you did with your phone.
But - unluckily for this man - a mobile left behind on a bar stool at a German beer garden in Redwood City, California, has set alarm bells ringing with an intrigue worthy of the Cold War.
For a website is claiming that the forgotten phone wasn’t just any old mobile. Gadget blog Gizmodo says it was a secret prototype of the next generation of the iPhone.
And if so, Apple employee Gray Powell has just made his 27th birthday unforgettable.

According to media reports in the U.S., Apple employee Gray Powell apparently left the iPhone behind after celebrating his 27th birthday at the Gourmet Haus Staudt bar, not far from the computer giant’s Cupertino, California headquarters.
Gizmodo said the person who found the phone claimed it was logged into Powell’s Facebook account and the last post on the social networking site was said to be: ‘I underestimated how good German beer is.’
After trying unsuccessfully to return the iPhone to its owner, the finder sold it to a 'mysterious middleman' who then sold it to the website for $5,000 (£3,250), Gizmodo editorial director Brian Lam said.
Mr Lam said the phone was shut down remotely by Apple, adding to suspicions that the phone held secrets the company didn’t want exposed.

Since posting pictures of the device online, the website, little known outside the hi-tech industry, has had more than three million hits in just 12 hours.
And it has triggered a guessing game over whether the new iPhone is genuine, how it got into the hands of the website and what sort of punishment the highly secretive Apple bosses might mete out to the software engineer apparently responsible for losing it.
Photographs posted of the device show a more angular model than the traditional iPhone with square corners and aluminum edges. Technical experts claim the case - similar to the older iPhone 3GS – was perfect camouflage for a prototype.
‘This may not be the final design for the next iPhone, but the fact that they built a fake case to make it look like the earlier iPhone, that says a lot,’ Brian Tong, editor for Cnet tech site, told ABC News.
The phone had a camera with a flash on the back with a bigger lens than the existing iPhone for better photo quality.
The front also sported a camera, which could indicate a video- conferencing capability for future models. On top of the device was a second microphone, possibly for noise cancellation.
The massive online interest in the prototype mystery prompted speculation that the whole thing may have been a marketing ploy to set up the launch of a new iPhone.
Apple’s initial silence over the find only fed the suspicions. But last night, Gizmodo said it finally heard from the company’s lawyers.
‘It has come to our attention that Gizmodo is in possession of a device that belongs to Apple,’ wrote Apple’s senior counsel.

‘This letter constitutes a formal request that you return the device the Apple. Please let me know where to pick up the unit.’
Mr Lam said the mobile was returned to Apple with a note saying: ‘I hope you take it easy on the kid who lost it. I don’t think he loves anything more than Apple.’
Under Californian law Gizmodo could be charged with received stolen goods.
While the outer packaging of the phone was rather rough and ready, Gizmodo have insisted that the hardware is anything but.
The screen has an improved display with a higher resolution so that individual pixels are not discernible.

The phone measures 4.5"x2.31"x0.37" and weighs 140 grams. The 3GS weighs 135 grams.
The battery 5.25 WHr at 3.7V, compared to the 3GS battery, which is 4.51 WHr at 3.7V.
On the back of the phone, it said it was XX GB, but Gizmodo were unable to see how large the memory was as they believe Apple had killed the phone's 4.0 operating system after it went missing.
The iPhone 4G is expected to hit stores worldwide in June, according to the latest blog speculation and will be on the Verizon network in the US.
This was given some credence by the CEO of Canadian carrier SaskTel, who said in an interview: 'The good news is that (Apple) is coming out with a new version of the iPhone in the June timeframe and they're going to put us on that. So we're quite excited about that.'
Another tantalising piece of evidence that the iPhone 4G is nearing release is the new 4.0 operating system, announced last week, which would incorporate features such as multi-tasking into the current iPhone 3GS model.
Last week Apple announced the UK launch of the long-awaited iPad with Wi-Fi would be delayed by a month as demand had outstripped supply in the US.
However the US will receive the iPad 3G version on April 30.

10 reasons not to buy Apple's new iPhone 4G

When Apple first launched the iPhone in 2007, it was leaps and bounds ahead of its nearest rivals. But now the handset is a triumph of marketing over functionality. And it’s so ubiquitous it’s not even cool any more.

Here are ten reasons why, whatever is announced at the forthcoming launch, there’s no point buying the iPhone 4G:
1) It’s expensive: Buy the top-of-the-rangeBlackberry or Android handset and you will still pay a lot less than the extortionate prices Apple charge. If the iPhone weren’t made by Apple, networks would have had to start giving it away on £30 a month tariffs years ago.
2) It’s anti-technology: When the iPhone launched it was cutting edge – now as other manufacturers announce, for instance, that you can use their phones as shareable wifi hot spots, Apple says no. Not because of some spurious “user experience” argument, but because of economics. When will they learn that it’s customers – supply and demand – that should dictate feature availability?
3) No Flash: The iPhone, the phone that promised to put the web into everybody’s pockets, can’t even show you most of it, because it can’t handle Flash graphics. Google Android can, in the latest version (OS 2.2), and it’s going to be available free on a lot of budget tariffs.
4) No multitasking: Tried instant messaging on an iPhone? Oh yes, you have to open the app to see if you’ve got a message. Genius. If Apple announces multitasking next it will be an improvement – but there’ll be no apology for the way it’s treated customers in the past, and no guarantee it won’t behave similarly shoddily in the future.
5) Its battery life is terrible: This isn’t a problem unique to Apple, but look at phones by companies such as HTC – multitasking, better cameras, better screens, all draining their batteries far more – and yet the iPhone, with its undemanding technology, still only offers equal performance.
6) Developing apps for it is costing you money: The special version of the BBC iPlayer, of Natwest Phone Banking, of Eon’s meter reader – developing all of these came out of money that could have been channelled away from a self-important minority and towards more generally useful ideas.
7) It comes with offensively bad headphones: Sit next to somebody using the original iPhone or iPod headphones and you can hear everything they can. It’s another example of Apple charging premium prices, but delivering a dressed up, budget product.
8) It’s not very well designed: Use the iPhone as a phone and it’s not got great reception, nor is it particularly comfortable to use for long periods. It’s a computer that happens to have a phone bolted on – jack of two trades, but master of neither.
9) It charges for satnav: In an age when Nokia and Google Android provide completely free mapping and satnav facilities, the cheapest way you can turn your overpriced iPhone into a satnav is with a £19.99 app. Bargain.
10) Those iPod docks are holding back better technologies: As every hotel increasingly thinks it should provide iPod docks, the momentum behind this technology is only growing. But if it wasn’t for the iPod and iPhone’s ubiquity, there’d be more wifi radios, more new technologies and a range of different options, competing and driving innovation.

Consumer Reports confirms iPhone 4 antenna problem is very real, Apple get censoring

Steve Jobs may be doing his best to sidestep the issue (see update below), but the plain truth is that a lot of users are frustrated by the iPhone’s antenna problem, which causes the handset to lose signal bars if the handset is held in the “wrong” way.
Don’t touch that case!
In areas with weak signal, touching the external antenna band at the bottom left side of the iPhone can cause the loss of voice and data connection, and the independent Consumer Reports website has confirmed this issue and decided that they can’t recommend the phone as a result.
Here’s their blog post on the matter:
We reached this conclusion after testing all three of our iPhone 4s (purchased at three separate retailers in the New York area) in the controlled environment of CU’s radio frequency (RF) isolation chamber. In this room, which is impervious to outside radio signals, our test engineers connected the phones to our base-station emulator, a device that simulates carrier cell towers. We also tested several other AT&T phones the same way, including the iPhone 3G S and the Palm Pre. None of those phones had the signal-loss problems of the iPhone 4.
Our findings call into question the recent claim by Apple that the iPhone 4′s signal-strength issues were largely an optical illusion caused by faulty software that “mistakenly displays 2 more bars than it should for a given signal strength.”
The site did, however, offer an economical if not stylish solution, and that was to break out the gaffa tape (or ‘duct tape’ if you’re on the other side of the pond) and slap it over the problem area.
It sure seems a dreadful bodge to be slapping sticky tape on a £600 phone, but we guess that’s got to be better than dropping vital calls.

Nokia and RIM respond angrily to Apple’s antenna statements

We have to say we weren’t too impressed by Apple dragging other handset manufacturers into their press conference yesterday – the issue was about the iPhone 4 dropping calls, not the performance of their competitors’ phones – and both Nokia and RIM have responded angrily.
RIM co-CEOs Mike Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie were mightily displeased to see their Blackberry Bold 9700 being used as a demonstration device to prove that the signal loss problem afflicted all manufacturers.
Describing Apple’s situation as a “self-made debacle” the two let rip in no uncertain fashion:
“Apple’s attempt to draw RIM into Apple’s self-made debacle is unacceptable. Apple’s claims about RIM products appear to be deliberate attempts to distort the public’s understanding of an antenna design issue and to deflect attention from Apple’s difficult situation. RIM is a global leader in antenna design and has been successfully designing industry-leading wireless data products with efficient and effective radio performance for over 20 years.
During that time, RIM has avoided designs like the one Apple used in the iPhone 4 and instead has used innovative designs which reduce the risk for dropped calls, especially in areas of lower coverage. One thing is for certain, RIM’s customers don’t need to use a case for their BlackBerry smartphone to maintain proper connectivity. Apple clearly made certain design decisions and it should take responsibility for these decisions rather than trying to draw RIM and others into a situation that relates specifically to Apple.”
Nokia were equally unchuffed, unleashing the following statement after Apple’s conference.
“Antenna design is a complex subject and has been a core competence at Nokia for decades, across hundreds of phone models. Nokia was the pioneer in internal antennas; the Nokia 8810, launched in 1998, was the first commercial phone with this feature.
Nokia has invested thousands of man hours in studying human behavior, including how people hold their phones for calls, music playing, web browsing and so on. As you would expect from a company focused on connecting people, we prioritize antenna performance over physical design if they are ever in conflict.
In general, antenna performance of a mobile device/phone may be affected with a tight grip, depending on how the device is held. That’s why Nokia designs our phones to ensure acceptable performance in all real life cases, for example when the phone is held in either hand. Nokia has invested thousands of man hours in studying how people hold their phones and allows for this in designs, for example by having antennas both at the top and bottom of the phone and by careful selection of materials and their use in the mechanical design.”
Undignified stuff
We still remain pretty unimpressed with Apple’s behaviour over this whole ‘Antennagate’ debacle.
They’ve gone from outright denial to blaming the customer for ‘holding it wrong’ to attacking other manufacturers while the bottom line remains: the iPhone 4 drops more calls than its 3GS predecessor and needs a bit of plastic around it to make it work reliably for all users – and no amount of slagging off other handsets will alter that uncomfortable fact.
It looks like the bad press isn’t going away either – a fact echoed by this rather damning video report on the BBC and this feature in MacWorld:
Apple’s press conference was a strange mix of finger pointing, random sales figures and statistics and–surprise!–some actual accountability and solutions for the iPhone 4′s antenna woes…
After a long-winded spiel about the universal antenna problem within the cell phone industry, the iPhone 4′s successful sales records, and the low number of antenna-related AppleCare complaints, it felt like “Antennagate” was something dreamed up by the press. I wish all of the dropped calls I’ve experienced were just a dream. And you can be certain that the personal iPhone 4 hell my colleague Melissa Perenson experienced with her three units (she’s on her fourth handset now) was not just a figment of her imagination.

Skype for iPhone iOS 4 supports multitasking, with no extra 3G charges

Skype has suddenly become a lot more useful, with the company releasing an updated iOS 4-ready version of VoIP app for the iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4 which is capable of multi-tasking.
The new version of the app allows users to receive Skype calls while other apps are running – even when their iPhone is locked.
Rummage’n'chat
This means that users can be enjoying a natter on Skype while switching to other tasks, such as checking movie listings, flicking through their diaries or rummaging through their email.
The graphics have also been given an extra shine and sprinkling of high def sparkle to support iPhone 4’s Retina Display.

Apple’s iPhone 4G Model Reduction In Popularity According to YouGov’s BrandIndex

Apple iPhone 4G reportedly has only 13.7 of existing customers willing to recommend the iPhone, as a result of its reception problems Apple is still making increases in sales, reportedly up 61% on the previous quarter. The iPhone 4 has been in the news constantly over the past few weeks, but unfortunately for the wrong reasons. Customers complained of drop in signal strength and iPhone 4 response was to advise customers to hold their phone differently. Obviously that wasn’t going to work so they are now offering a free bumper case to help improve reception.Although with sales of iPhone at 8.4m in three months then they probably have everything under control, especially with the US share price recovering after the initial scare of the possibility of a product recall.

Apple iPhone 4 vs. HTC EVO 4G

White iPhone 4 delayed until later this year

Yikes, it looks like the mysterious white iPhone isn’t going to make it on to Apple store shelves until later this year. According to Apple’s PR department, the iPhone 4 has “continued to be more challenging to manufacture than we originally expected.” Oh well then, time to get the Tipp-Ex out and get a little creative.

iPad vs iPhone 4G

With iPad pre-orders opening today, you may be um-ing and ah-ing over whether or not to shell out for the wunderproduct - finger hovering over the buy button, beads of sweat breaking out as you tap your credit card in a state of pure disarray. The reason for your indecision? The iPhone 4G.
Forget all the concepts, leaks and debate over features, come June we'll no doubt know all the specifics of the next-gen iPhone. So will it be worth the wait? Or should you just give in to your iPad cravings now and have done? Allow Recombu to play the devil on your shoulder as we run through who should and shouldn't indulge now.
Yes, you should buy an iPad immediately
- You relish fanboy status: You're already on thin fanboy ice for not managing to import an iPad from the US, where they've been on sale for over a month. If you hold out now, you'll be relegated to mere *shudder* trend-hopper.
- You travel a lot: No doubt the iPad would be handy for watching films on planes, keeping connected in places with Wi-Fi, reading e-books and working (if you're the Prime Minister of Norway). Of course, you probably already have a perfectly serviceable laptop, but maybe you're looking for something a bit slimmer, a bit lighter and a bit hotter off the press.
- You're a creative or you adore videos and gaming: As clever as the iPhone 4G will no doubt be, there's no way it'll have such a deliciously large 9.7-inch display with colour depth much more impressive than the piddly little iPhone 3GS.
No, control yourself and wait for the iPhone 4G
- You aren't made of money: If you've got an iPhone (or any smartphone, really) you're already paying for 3G and no doubt you're also already paying for Wi-Fi at home. Do you really want to add another 3G data plan to that? Even if you go for the Wi-Fi only option the cheapest you'll get it for is still £429, and you'll probably want some hefty insurance with that too. Not to mention all the apps, eBooks and movies you'll need to load it up with in order to get the most out of it. Whatever way you look at it, the iPad doesn't come cheap.
- You can't see into the future: Who knows what the iPhone 4G will do? Apple must know they've got to up their iPhone game now that the iPad is at large - with OS, apps and design being so very, very similar on both devices, there may just be something big in the works to differentiate the two. So what could it be? The purported leaked model which Gizmodo has encountered so much strife over suggested a potential HD camera, front-facing video chat camera, higher-resolution screen and noise cancellation. But maybe the money-shot is going to come from the software or processing power to enable proper multi-tasking (welcome to 2008, Apple) or, quite likely, something we commoners cannot yet even conceive of... there's just no way to know until June.
- You won't use it in public: Here in London, it'd be a brave soul who'd whip out the iPad on the underground to read an e-Book on the long commute, particularly in the rammed tube carriages of rush hour. The same no doubt apply anywhere else in the country. It's like asking to be mugged, just like wearing the distinctive white headphone wires of the iPod Classic was in days gone by (you know, back when iPods still had resale value).
Whether or not you're heeding any of our advice, let us know in the comments if you're pre-ordering an iPad today (so we can make plans to mug you, obviously).

Comparing : iPhone 4 vs. HTC Evo 4G

We compare the Apple iPhone 4 vs. the HTC EVO 4G. The gloves are off as Apple’s latest creation goes up against the first 4G smartphone in America.
With the curtain now officially lifted onApple’s iPhone 4, hoards of Apple devotees have already made plans to ditch their well-worn 3G S models and move onto the next iteration. But if you’re not wearing a heart-shaped locket with Steve Jobs inside, does the move to the iPhone 4 make sense? Where previous iPhone releases have towered over the competition in every way, this year’s release faces stiffer outside competition than ever before. Does Apple still have what it takes to reign supreme in the smartphone market? We stacked the iPhone 4 specs side by side with those of its most intimidating competitor, HTC’sAndroid-powered EVO 4G, to find out.

Display
Winner: Apple iPhone 4

With this year’s Android offerings moving to ever higher resolutions and screen sizes, it was clear that the iPhone would need a major overhaul to compete. And Apple provided it. The 3.5-inch, 960-by-640-pixel LCD screen on the iPhone 4 quadruples the amount of pixels from the last-gen screen to 614,400. By contrast, the 4.3-inch screen on the HTC EVO 4G is physically larger, but at 480-by-800 pixels, the total pixel count of 384,000 still pales in comparison. More pixels in a smaller screen will also give the iPhone 4 astounding clarity and sharpness due to the pixel density. The bifocal crowd might prefer the EVO 4G for its larger size, but most users will probably prefer the sheer detail and clarity of the iPhone 4.

Portability
Winner: Apple iPhone 4

That 4.3-inch screen naturally boosts the footprint of the EVO 4G significantly, and this size 14 monster can’t compete on any level when it comes down to the denim. Besides being taller and wider, it’s also 0.5 inches thick compared to just 0.37 inches on the iPhone 4, and weighs 6 ounces compared to just 4.8 on the iPhone 4. No contest.

Processor
Winner: Draw

Both the iPhone 4 and EVO 4G sport top-of-the-line processors. The iPhone 4 uses the same capable A4 processor as the iPad, and the EVO 4 uses the hotrod Qualcomm Snapdragon running at an impressive 1GHz. You’ll have to wait for the iPhone 4 release to see head-to-head benchmarks, but AnandTech pitted the iPad against the EVO 4G and found a 37.6 percent real-life performance gain in page load times. Of course, different operating systemsand a range of other variables make this far from scientific, and Apple could underclock the model in the iPhone 4 for battery life, further throwing a wrench into the works. Bottom line: Until the iPhone 4 makes it to the wild, it’s too early to tell how it will perform beside the EVO 4G.

Storage
Winner: Apple iPhone 4

We’ve always found Apple’s neglect for microSD expansion slots irritating, and that hasn’t

changed with the iPhone 4. But at the end of the day, the iPhone 4 offers the same maximum storage as the EVO 4G, and for less money.
The EVO 4G comes with an 8GB microSD card preinstalled, but you can potentially expand it up to 32GB with a larger card. Unfortunately, 32GB models remain quite rare and you’ll need to drop at least $200 for one. By contrast, the least expensive ($200) iPhone 4 comes with 16GB of built-in memory, and it only costs $100 to upgrade to 32GB. As of press time, a smartphone owner who wanted the maximum memory would pay $300 from Apple, and or $200 from HTC plus $200 from SanDisk for a total of $400. A user who wanted the minimum would pay the same ($200) on both devices, but get 16GB on the iPhone 4 and only 8GB on the EVO 4G. The iPhone 4 wins on all accounts.

Camera
Winner: HTC EVO 4G

Both the iPhone 4 and EVO 4G sport both back cameras for snapping photos and front cameras for video conferencing. The EVO 4G gets the sharper vision on primary cam, shooting at 8 megapixels to Apple’s 5 megapixels, and on the front-facing cam, which shoots 1.3 megapixels to Apple’s VGA (0.3 megapixel) cam. Higher resolution doesn’t always mean a better camera, but we’ll have to give the EVO 4G the upper hand until launch time. The EVO 4G also sports a dual-LED flash rather than a single-LED flash, potentially making it more potent for night-time shooting.
For video, both cameras are capable of high-def 720p recording, but the iPhone 4 can shoot at a full 30 frames per second while the EVO 4G can only do 25.

Connectivity
Winner: HTC EVO 4G

That “4G” in the EVO’s name isn’t just for kicks, although we happen to think it rolls off the tongue nicely. It’s actually the first phone in North America to ride on a blazing fast 4Gnetwork, potentially putting an end to the molasses-slow loading we typically associate with browsing on a mobile phone.
How much faster? HTC claims 10 times, but that’s based on comparing the very slowest end of average 3G speeds (600 Kbps to 1.7 Mbps), to the high end of its own 4G claims (3 to 6 Mbps). We managed to hit 3 Mbps once in a while in our own 4G network tests, but it was the exception, not the rule, and we typically got much slower.PCWorld’s speed tests of the EVO 4G confirmed the same type of network performance on the EVO 4 when testing around the Pacific Northwest.
That said, even 3 Mbps is more than you could ever hope to wring from most 3G phones, and the EVO 4G can do things that the iPhone 4 just won’t, like videoconferencing without a Wi-Fi connection. “Ten times faster” is an obvious marketing exaggeration, but with think most consumers would be plenty happy with “twice as fast,” which is speed you might actually be able to achieve, depending on location.
Even if you discount the 4G capability for its battery life, the EVO 4G also pulls an interesting trick that should leave iPhone 4 owners jealous: it functions as a Wi-Fi hotspot for sharing its connectivity with other devices – likelaptops, tablets, and even other cell phones.

Battery Life
Winner: Apple iPhone 4

Battery life has never been a strong point for Apple’s notoriously thirsty smartphone, but the company claims to have improved it this time around, and the same 4G modem that gives the EVO 4G its leg up in connectivity is its Achilles heel here. HTC hasn’t released complete battery life estimates for the EVO 4G, but we managed to get six hours of only on-and-off 4G data usage, while Apple claims the iPhone 4 will do six solid hours on 3G. Talk time also seems to suffer, with HTC claiming 360 minutes on the EVO 4G and Apple claiming 420 on the iPhone 4.
It’s worth noting, of course, that the EVO 4G sports a replaceable battery while the iPhone 4 has a sealed internal battery, eliminating the possibility of battery swaps. Although we don’t know too many cell owners who would carry around a replacement to swap out halfway through the day, long distance travelers who spend plenty of time away from outlets will certainly appreciate the possibility.

Operating System
Winner: Draw

We could run a keyboard into the ground spelling out the differences between the newly dubbed iOS and Android, but we value our previous keys, so let’s just say they each have their own advantages.
Apple’s iOS undoubtedly lacks the flexible open ecosystem of Android, which allows software like game console emulators that Apple has banned, but Apple holds the upper hand in selection, boasting 225,000 third-party apps to Android’s 70,000 or so, at last count. The latest release also alleviates some of the most frequent complaints about previous versions, like the lack of multitasking and folders for apps.
While techies will undoubtedly appreciate the lack of censorship and restrictions on Android, more mainstream consumers will find plenty to like about Apple’s overflowing App Store and ease of use, making this issue largely a matter of taste.

Overall Winner: Apple iPhone 4

Impressive as both phones are, Apple’s iPhone 4 appears to be a better deal coming out of the gate than HTC’s innovative EVO 4G. Why? HTC’s biggest bragging point – 4G connectivity – proves to be less of an advantage in real life than on paper after factoring in real-life network speeds and issues with 4G battery life. It also has a small leg up on the iPhone 4 in camera resolution, but less fluid 25fps HD recording also helps diminish that minimal edge. Meanwhile, the iPhone 4 is substantially smaller, has a higher resolution screen, and offers more storage for the money. We’ll wait to get the iPhone 4 in our hands before issuing a definitive verdict, but based on specs, the iPhone 4 truly does hold the upper hand.

Apple iPhone 4G to be Launched in June?

The iPhone 4G is COMING!!!
Lots of speculation is going around on the new iPhone 4g... in HD!! Official features have been revealed at the WWDC conference today.
Verizon Wireless is currently testing a CDMA version of the iPhone 4G and Verizon confirms they are making network changes to bring the iphone to their network. The new iPhone 4g is going to be loaded with awesome new features like video chat, multi-tasking and extreme downloading. (List of possible features below). Just when you think there is nothing else to come up with, more and more and more technology comes out. And it is on the rise, and not just at Apple, Inc!
Woo hoo! This iPhone 4g could also have dual core processors and higher and powerful graphic chips that can deliver higher video resolutions and better "still" images when taking pictures.
There are a few networks working on building a 4G network. T-mobile would be a likely carrier since they are GSM already. Sprint has a 4G network already... AT&T and Verizon Wireless are in the beginning stages. There are talks of Verizon Wireless getting iPhone sometime in 2010 since the exclusive contract with AT&T expires, but it could be renewed until 2012.
Whether or not it will be 4G will be up to them!... can they build in time? Regardless, there is much anticipation on how many people will leave AT&T for Verizon Wireless because of AT&T's lagging on app restrictions like Slingplayer and Google Voice and Skype (on #g network, not Wi-Fi).
AT&T's restrictions have caused the percentage of people that are JailBreaking their iPhones to rise since Jail Breaking usually comes with Cydia which is the app store for jail broken phones. Most of the applications, ringtones, and even iphone themes!...are free with Cydia. Winterboard is part of the download, and it very easily add's the changes to your phone so you dont have to figure how to do it on your own...it is VERY automated.
The Palm Pre on Sprint and HTC EVO (Sprint now offering a 4G network) has made an attempt at being competitive with iPhone and Blackberry...and it seems they are making head way.
iPhone 4G looks promising in terms of being sleek, packed with new hardware and multi-tasking software. Very exciting.
A few features of iPhone 4G:
Thinner! With shiny glass back piece - 9.3 mm thick.
Unified Mailbox (all email accounts in one area).
Application folders.
New wallpaper/background options.
A new, sleeker body design.
OLED screen.
Multi-Tasking. (use multiple functions at once without going in and out of apps).
iChat camera (on the front so you can have video chat!!!).
32G (basic) and 64G of memory. You're sure to never run out.
Extended battery life!!!
Hi Definition Camera (5 megapixel) with a backside illuminated sensor AND FLASH!
Hi Definition Camcorder.
Hi Definition audio.
Messaging light.
True GPS built in.
