Top Five Features of the iPhone 4G aka iPhone HD
Category: Free Stuff, iPhone News, iPhone Release, My Ramblings
If Carlsberg made iPhones….
1. Mass Storage Device
Forget disgust mode, with the iPhone 4G you can have disc mode!
Cut and paste files from your PC to the iPhone 4G without having to trample it into the ground in sheer frustration. PDFs and Excel files will never have to see the light of an e-mail (to yourself) ever again.
Ah, but there’s an App for that….Sorry it’s MobileNotMe, I’ll keep my £50 thanks.
2. Data Handling
No, I don’t want to save to your 19th century notepad, it’s my text message and I’ll archive it on the iPhone 4G if I want to.
The iPhone HD will treat iPhone users like grown ups and give us direct access to our own files, then let us back-up within iTunes.
3. Loony iTunes
Nope, not a loveable cartoon character, just a flash forward into the future of the iPhone 4G’s tabbed data management.
Apple produces by far the sexiest tech that you can get your sticky fingers on but iTunes always looked and felt like waking up next to the fat bird. It seemed like a good idea at the time…
Jobsy baby has had a shake up in iPhone OS HD and turned the iPhone platform into something even more remarkable then it is today.
4. A Tangled Web
Only Outlook used to have a calendar worth syncing according to the fruity boys. But not now…
The iPhone 4G not only lets you pair with you Yahoo Address Book, Google Contacts and Windows, you can now also get data directly from contacts within the iPhone HD itself.
Apple has finally got in touch with key Web services and the iPhone 4G is the Web-centric communications handset that we all craved.
5. The Camera Never Lies..unless it used to tell you it was good…
Avid snappers were chuffed to see that Apple had introduced a 3 megapixel camera into the 3GS and what’s in a megapixel or two (thousand). Move over Nokia’s 5 megapixel N97, we always wanted grainy images to share via our Spectrum ZX81s!
Kerching! The new iPhone 4G camera now uses the home/volume buttons as its shutter and solves the underlying problem of trying to find a virtual button. Steve, sir, you must know that we chaps have spent years and never mastered that!
With the addition of a LED flash the iPhone 4GD is beyond any shadow of a doubt, a powerful tool worth shouting about.
And if Carlsberg made iPhones, you’d be able to get a free iPhone 4G (well, OK, that bit is already true!).

I agree, the camera is a hugely powerful tool, and that feature definitely wasn’t overlooked in the creation of the product!
Everything about the iPhone 4 is better than the 3G; especially the camera. You can actually take pictures without it freezing for minutes at a time.
The virtual button for the camera was such a disappointment. Thank goodness that has been rectified.
I got my 3GS about a week before the iPhone 4 was introduced, and I’m stuck in a 3-year contract. I guess I’ll have to wait until the iPhone 6, which by that point will be implanted into my head, (but still only carry a 5 megapixel camera)…
