Siri: Your wish is its demand. This voice activated system will text your grandma, play any song on your iPod on a whim and find your little lost, Gretel self the way home. Not only does it have full comprehension of the English language but it actually understands the concept of implication. For example, if you ask Siri, “Where’s a good place to play bingo?” it will find all of the locations relatively close to you that hold bingo games. Then if bingo no longer appeals to you, then you could ask, “What about lasertag?” Siri would already know that you previously asked for the locations of places that one can play bingo, so it knows to find places that one can play lasertag. So Siri is literally and little pocket secretary.
A new camera: This new phone has eight megapixles, more megapixels ever in an iPhone camera. Not to mention, it has more precise large aperture, which automatically adjusts to however much lighting you’re in, this makes your favorite red shirt bolder, and your pearly whites more definite. With this new camera, lagging is nonexistent. You can take a picture the instant you push the dual purpose, home button. If that’s not good enough for you, you can also edit your photo with the new A5 chip’s image processor.
Dual purpose A5 chip: This little chip is the mitochondria of the iPhone 4gs. The Apple site claims that this chip “delivers twice the power and seven times faster graphics.” So you can play Angry Birds with raging and vivid colors and effects like never before on an iPhone, and barely enervate your battery life.
iOs 5: This top of the line system will keep you in touch with the world despite disabilities or language barriers like VoiceOver and Braille mirroring for the blind and fast frame rate facetime for the deaf. Also, a computer is no longer needed for editing songs, photos and email folders. It can all be done wirelessly. You don’t need a chord to sync your iTunes material onto your phone either. Apps like mail, calendar, and game center have been updated to form a more interactive experience for you. New apps have been added too like newsstand where magazines you’ve subscribed to are available on your apple device. So you can read Teen Vogue or Car and Driver without waiting for the mailman and without paper cuts. Notifications won’t interfere with what else you’ve got going on either. So your girlfriend’s text message won’t interrupt your vividly colored game of fruit ninja, it will simply inform you of the message through a discreet header at the top of your screen. If you want to iOs 5 but don’t have the 4gs, don’t worry, iOs 5 is compatible with iPhones: 3gs, 4, 4S, iPods: 3rd and 4th generation, and iPads: one and two.
iCloud: This storage unit is “a hard drive in the sky” as the Apple store says. All of you music, contacts, photos, apps, books, and documents can be transferred from one apple device to another without a wire. Cloud also backs up your entire phone paraphernalia. It’s like apple insurance. So if you drop your phone into the lake because you casted your fishing line too hard, all is not lost. They’ve got you covered. On top of that, finding the whereabouts of your friends is a breeze. Just select a friend that also has the Friend Finding App and you’ll know where they are in seconds. No need to scavenge the whole fair grounds just to find your roller-coaster-riding partner.
