Hardware

iPhone 3G S features video recording, Voice Control, 16GB ($199 with new/upgrade-eligible AT&T Contract, $399 with contract extension) or 32GB ($299 with new/upgrade-eligible AT&T Contract, $499 with contract extension) of storage. The iPhone 3G, a lesser model in terms of hardware, preserves an 8GB flash drive, and has a reduced price (to $99). It was announced at WWDC 2009.

Camera

The iPhone 3G S features a 3.0 megapixel autofocus camera that takes pictures and video. The camera automatically adjusts focus, exposure, colour and contrast and includes an automatic macro focus. The camera software also includes a "tap to focus" feature, where users can touch the display to select an object or area of interest, and the camera will automatically re-adjust the focus and exposure of the image. VGA video clips can also be recorded and edited from the iPhone 3G S by utilising the new trimming tool to trim the start and stop points. The phone also allows users to send pictures and video by email or MMS and post them to MobileMe or YouTube.

Voice Control

The iPhone 3G S has a feature which allows users to interact with the device through speech. For example, Voice Control can be used to dial the phone number of a specific contact, or to find out the name of a song which is currently playing on the device's built in iPod. According to Apple's "Compare iPhones" section, the iPhone 3G will not support Voice Control.

Digital Compass

The iPhone 3G S features a new digital compass to allow users to see which direction they are heading. Application support will allow users to track which direction they are heading and sync with the built-in GPS to track their path.




Woopee.
