Apple iPhone 3GS review: Same clothes, new feel
But by keeping the old design of the device Apple took quite a risky step. As if they wanted to keep their 3G user base where they are - consuming apps at a fast rate - and are willingly putting them off from upgrading. As we can't really imagine how many people would want to shell out the cash for a new phone that looks just the same as their old one.
- A faster 600MHz CPU and double the RAM at 256MB
- Noticeably faster performance
- Faster network speeds of HSDPA 7.2Mbps
- 3.2 megapixel auto focus camera with VGA@30fps video recording, touch focus with subject tracking, macro mode from as close as 10 cm
- Double the storage space - 3GS is selling in 16GB and 32GB versions
- Digital compass with automatic map orientation in Maps app
- Better audio quality (as recorded and analyzed in our office)
- Louder loudspeaker results (with performance gains primarily in music playback)
- Purportedly better battery life
- Oleophobic display coating supposed to make fingerprints easier to clean
- Voice Control, speaker independent. Can be use to call a phone number, play music by song/album/artist name, shuffle music
- Built-in support for Nike+ jogging system
- TV-out outputs 480p instead 480i resolution
- Text-to-speech feature called VoiceOver is included in the new Accessibility menu
- System-wide Screen Zoom is also included in the Accessibility menu
- The new iPhone 3GS lacks the same novelty factor as its predecessors - the lack of design changes is a turn-down
- 3 megapixel camera with limited feature set hardly cuts it for a high-end device
- There's still no flash or hardware shutter key for the camera
- Despite the upgrade, battery life is still generally poor (2-year old iPhone 2G are still doing way better)
- No videocalls functionality
- No FM radio
- No stereo speakers (or are we pushing it too far already?)
