The new iPhone will be available for pre-order on October 7th and arrive on October 14th at the following prices:
- iPhone 4S 16GB $199
- iPhone 4S 32GB $299
- iPhone 4S 64GB $399
The iPhone 4S will will offer eight hours of 3G talk time. Six hours of
browsing, nine on WiFi. 10 hours of video, and 40 hours of music.
“Fantastic battery life.”
The new iPhone 4S will also feature HSDPA+, which will push its maximum speeds to 14.4mBps and will pack two antennas that it will automatically switch between to send and receive calls.
The new iPhone will also pack an 8MP back illuminated sensor that will gather 73% more light than the previous iPhone’s sensor. It is also 1/3 faster and features a hybrid IR filter. The camera’s lens has five lens elements and an f2.4 aperture. This, says Apple’s Phil Schiller, allows for “better accuracy and color uniformity.”
The custom Apple image processor allows for Face Detection and automatic white balance, much like high-end point-and-shoots. The camera talkes just 1.1 seconds to shoot the first photo and .5 seconds to shoot the next one. “I don’t know what Droid Bionic customers have to do between taking pictures… like, go get coffee,” said Schiller.
The Macro capability is now upgraded as well.
The iPhone 4S is also capable of 1080p HD video recording with stabilization and real-time noise reduction.
The iPhone 4S also gains the iPad 2′s Wireless Mirroring feature using AirPlay and an Apple TV.
