Update: See Globe iPhone 4 Price here. Read the full iPhone 4 Review here or check out the iPhone 4 Release Coverage.

Jadi Apple akhirnya mengumumkan model baru dari iPhone dan bukan iPhone 4G atau iPhone HD yang beredar di internet. Steve menyebutnya iPhone 4.

Dan meskipun kami sudah pernah melihat sekilas ponsel ini ketika Gizmodo menampilkan prototipe yang hilang itu yang mereka beli seharga $5.000, itu masih menarik banyak kekaguman dari kerumunan.

iphone 4

Apple menambahkan fitur yang secara praktis umum pada kebanyakan smartphone lain seperti kamera depan dan lampu kilat LED namun ini belum menjadi sorotan utama.

iPhone 4 lebih tipis (klaim menjadi smartphone paling tipis pernah ada, 24% lebih tipis daripada 3GS) hanya 9.3mm (Nokia E71 memiliki ketebalan 10mm). Selanjutnya, mereka meningkatkan resolusi menjadi 326 piksel per inci (itu 4 kali lipat dibandingkan model sebelumnya).

Spesifikasi iPhone 4:
Apple 1GHz chip A4
Layar 3,5" @ 960x640 piksel
HSDPA 7,2 Mbps
WiFi 802.11n
GPS
Giroskop
kamera 5MP dengan lampu kilat LED + perekaman video HD @ 720p 30fps
Kamera depan kedua
2 mikrofon dengan peredam kebisingan
Bluetooth 2.1 dengan EDR
iOS 4

The iPhone 4 memiliki daya tahan baterai yang lebih baik juga -- 40 jam musik, 10 jam video, 6 jam penelusuran 3G, dan 10 jam penelusuran WiFi.

Apple is also putting iPhone OS 4 in it but renames it as iOS 4.

The iPhone 4 comes in two colors -- white and black and two models, 16GB and 32GB. As for the price:

iPhone 4 16GB: $199 + kontrak 24‑bulan
iPhone 4 32GB: $299 + kontrak 24‑bulan

Untuk ketersediaan:
24 Juni - AS, Jepang, Prancis, Jerman, dan Inggris
Juli 2010 - 18 negara lagi (semoga, termasuk Filipina)
September 2010 - 88 negara

Globe Telecom sudah menyiapkan kartu micro‑SIM mereka, jadi yang perlu kita lakukan hanyalah menunggu berapa harganya ketika iPhone 4 tiba di Filipina.

Jika Anda penasaran berapa harga iPhone 4 dengan Globe di Filipina, baca posting saya di sini.

What are the dimensions and thickness of the new iPhone 4?

The iPhone 4 measures 9.3mm thick, making it 24% thinner than the 3GS and claimed to be the thinnest smartphone at launch.

What display resolution does the iPhone 4 feature?

The phone sports a 3.5-inch display with a resolution of 960x640 pixels, providing 326 pixels per inch.

What are the storage options and pricing for the iPhone 4?

Two models are available: a 16GB version at $199 and a 32GB version at $299, both requiring a 24‑month contract.

Globe is like AT&T

go figure xD

nexus3g · 16 years ago

its nothing but old news. we had this with Gizmodo months ago pa hehehe

iPhone 4 surely is the top of the line. but it gets stuck there until iPhone 5 or 6 to be released a year or two.

BUT… Android OS 2.2 aka FROYO is coming with BETTER FEATURES than the iPhone 4. not to mention, the next Android update before the year ends, code-named GINGERBREAD will put that iPhone 4 to shame.

oh, don’t underestimate Windows phone 7 coming up soon!

sige bili nyo na din ako paki hatid nalang sa bahay thanks for free

Adrian · 16 years ago

excited. bili agad :)

nokia n8 – like:> great specs. usable. practical.

dislike:( seemingly sluggish OS still. BORING almost-the-same old-fashioned symbian UI. not sure if old symbian 9.4 apps are backward compatible w/ symbian^3

android phones – like:> beautiful android OS is the FUTURE. finally, iphone OS now has a real competitor head-to-head!

dislike:( android phones are expensive still 30k+ average. low priced “samsung galaxy” feels like a joke w/ more apps installed.

iphone 4 – like:> upgraded to iphone os 4. 185,000 third-party APPS TO CHOOSE FROM! VERY SMOOTH UI and the experience is a joy! really intuitive and well-thought-of design.

DISLIKE:( RESTRICTIONS OF THE OS, + CRIPPLED/LIMITED bluetooth functionality, EXPENSIVE, expect to pay no less than 40k openline (if youre lucky).

MY TAKE: i’l just wait for iTOUCH 4th gen, to be announced come September 2010. it will be more or less the same with iphone 4 (without call&text functionality). but youll only pay (estimated based on history of itouch) about 300-400usd. that is GOOD VALUE FOR MONEY, at least to me.

to each his own. peace to all:)

@Ebengtot

Symbian fails because it took them years to come up with a decent app store and through the years platform version fragmentation.

IPhones on the otherhand had excellent app store by relying on it’s App Store service. However this created a monopoly that any published app or content will be subject to censorship and may be withdrawn at Apple’s whim.

Will definitely save up for this. :) Hope Globe won’t make it too pricey though… Cant wait to have one!

snpklsdmbdlr · 16 years ago

Steve Jobs was unable to connect at the network…. EPIC FAIL! haha someone will get fired xD and whats up with the retina display? i though it would be somesort of retina scanner or something! LOL Apple is making their own king of display again, but still SUPER AMOLED is the BEST! HTC EVO is still miles better than this one but fanboys will not admit it, Gingerbread is coming and tons of new Android smartphones will make this phone look ancient in this year alone xD

Arvin · 16 years ago

YAWN!!! like i expected, has the same features as the high end android phones already released since may an june. Let’s face it? who would buy an over priced product when you can buy a cheaper non contract device that has the same features as this thing has. people! pay for the device not the BRAND NAME!!!

Ebengt0t · 16 years ago

@ic deadpipol
n8 alth0ugh symbian was the m0st useful smartph0ne when we talk about applications. And iph0ne4 have no match for it. From camera to connectivity, availability of applicati0n are c0untless, supported s0ftwares and files.

jade bryan · 16 years ago

I’m not an Apple fan but there will be no iPhone this July. 100% confirmed.

d00dz · 16 years ago

@Mike

Symbian? Ugh. No matter how much I try, I can never get myself to like Symbian.

Mike · 16 years ago

Ok so iphone 4 has big improvement now but there are still better alternatives which is also coming before the end of this year. For example upcoming Samsung i8920 specs: 4″ super amoled, 12mp cam, 1080p @ 60fps video recording, symbian 3, 1.5 ghz processor and absolutely better and cheaper than iphone 4.

Ryan Ang · 16 years ago

Finally Farmville app!!!

/end sarcasm

I think the main selling point of this phone is the “Retina Display.” Imagine, 320+ppi on a screen that size. I will write my 20/20 vision a lovely farewell letter now.

Facetime, 720p recording, multitasking, better battery; marami nang nakagawa nyan. ‘And’ Facetime currently will work only with wifi (which they even had problems demo-ing it during the keynote).

at 9.7mm though it’s freaking thin.

Jon · 16 years ago

Looks ugly. I find the 3GS better. Though I kinda like the white one. Looks so edgy. Not so Apple IMO.

boowee · 16 years ago

sa website sabi, pwedeng mag-video edit using this phone! :)

I love the hardware specs, I hate the OS and the company…

“i have an android phone â€“ itâ€™s UIâ€™s sluggish, maybe because of the OS i think itâ€™s still running 1.5 or 1.6”
errm.. update? What phone are you on? XDA devs/cyanogen could help.

N8 comparison with the iPhone 4 – including the EVO and other smartphones

spoiled_by_leaks · 16 years ago

as for quality and its hardware – the iphone 4 is the best, nothing similar i’ve seen on any other competing brands – is there anyone with gyroscope hehe, or retina display – custom made front and back plastic glass and the marketing hype Apple’s been known to…

and look their video ad shows some footages during manufacturing process which are just awesome…

-i have an android phone – it’s UI’s sluggish, maybe because of the OS i think it’s still running 1.5 or 1.6 (nakakabanas lang ang bagal – pati mga Android phones wih the latest Froyo OS di pa available sa public)

im turning an apple fanboy now (which is not a bad thing and when google catches up again – i can be an android fanboy too

win win

arnold · 16 years ago

@Abe – I think it won’t be coming here in July. September na siguro.

talksmart · 16 years ago

From the iPad to this. I’ll be getting the iPhone 4 on the 24th. Pre-order starts on the 15th. I will post details once I have it.

yeyeyeye!

MobilePinas · 16 years ago

The good thing here is iPhone 3GS will be sold for at least 6k to 7k (in pesos) when this new iPhone 4 released.

marisse_redblossom · 16 years ago

I’m so excited! Can’t wait :D

Mary Kris Figueroa · 16 years ago

bad trip! microsim! gugupitin ko pa yung luma kong sim..tsk tsk

roland · 16 years ago

can’t wait to upgrade from iphone 3g to iphone 4.

Jiro Yan · 16 years ago

It could be 16GB iPhone 4 FREE at Plan 5000 when it hits Globe.

d00dz · 16 years ago

Most likely won’t launch in the Philippines in July. We aren’t included in the list of 18 countries.

IC DeaDPiPoL · 16 years ago

Betting the 32gb model won’t be sold close to P13,800 over here. Also it took Apple multiple revisions to implement those feature standard to Smartphones. In addition for those who will be using this for web browsing, the lack of flash support will not look good.

Abe Olandres Editor-in-chief · 16 years ago

@IC DeaDPiPoL — I think it will be FREE on Plan 7000.

lolipown · 16 years ago

@pinoypi
running symbian? No thanks.

pinoypi · 16 years ago

It has no match to the upcoming Nokia N8’s specs. I already checked its comparison with HTC Evo 4G, HTC HD2 and Palm Pixi, but N8 reigns!

lolipown · 16 years ago

@fr0stbyte and blitzkrieg
isn’t that what fanboyism is all about? :D

-M

-m · 16 years ago

When will it get here?

John · 16 years ago

Fanboys will be fanboys. While it’s true that Apple is introducing “new” features in the iPhone already found on other smartphones for years, I have to say that the touchscreen of the iPod Touch/iPhone is the best I’ve ever used. I’ve never liked Macs and I don’t see me getting on anytime soon, but I think Apple’s designs are always something to behold.

I’ve always held back on purchasing an iPhone because of their lame lack of features that are regularly found in other phones, but I think I’m getting this one. The only thing holding me back now is the price.

fr0stbyte · 16 years ago

Apple fan boys. They rave like silly little boys holding their overpriced toys acting up like something’s up their butt. My post cowers in fear of deletion. :O

blitzkrieg · 16 years ago

Let the FANBOYISM begin. It’s so funny people consider the iPhone the most amazing and the best of the best in the smartphone category, wherein all the features introduced in the iPhone 4 have been around for quite some time in other devices. Then again, it’s your personal preference (I hope, and not blind allegiance). Hence, I respect that.

Video calling did not click here. It’s not going to click once the iPhone 4 arrives to our shores. It’s nothing but hype.

Paulin · 16 years ago

Hi,

I’m planning to purchase the SE X10. (for my bday w/c is in July. hehehehe)
I read your review and it looks like the X10 has not met your expectations of an android phone. i want to know what the release date of the Iphone 4G is here and the estimated price. (i bet it’s a bit expensive considering Globe is slashing off 3G price)

i hope it does come out in July d2 sa pinas so i can check your review. and hopefully decide what to buy. or, i hope i can wait that long. ; )

Kim Roa Endaya · 16 years ago

I want one….

My 3GS is jealous :| :))

Teknisyan · 16 years ago

wow… sir yuga.. beat me to it again.. :(

Anyhow.. nothing spectacular about the new iphone except that it’s from Apple. Hopefully… they’ll be more surprise as the WWDC continues.

ReyMatt · 16 years ago

I hope the video calling feature will be supported by Globe’s 3G network at launch locally. Steve Jobs said that it’s only available over wi-fi for now

lolipown · 16 years ago

@want new phone
just curious, will you be considering the 5″ dell streak?

want new phone · 16 years ago

I don’t know about this. There’s absolutely nothing new on the iPhone 4 that’s already not in the other android smart-phones that released earlier. (except the gyroscope) LOL

Longer battery life (iPhone 4 has a larger battery)
gyroscope (for gaming)
better screen reso (retina display what?)

I would still pick the Evo 4G or Incredible any day.

but they’re not yet available here so. I’ll wait.
