Iphone 4s Singapore

There is no iPhone5. Instead you get the same look of the iPhone 4. An iPhone 4S instead was announced by Apple early Wednesday morning (Singapore time).

What Singapore consumers will get when they get their hands on the iPhone 4S on Oct 28 is a phone which can, among other things, take much sharper images at faster speed, play more graphic-intensive games, download data faster, and take high-definition video.

There is a new faster microprocessor called A5 and a new graphics chip. There is a now an 8 megapixel camera and a new lens arrangement that offers more accurate and sharper images as well as high-def video.

Ask the phone to find out the latest weather report, search for the closest Italian restaurant and shopping centre, convert Singapore dollars to Turkish Lira or find the equatorial circumference of Mars.

While I am weighing the cost of buying the iPhone 4S - I have to consider whether my telco provider will penalise me for an early conversion to a new phone - I would also now seriously consider the iPod Nano.

I have avoided it so far because I already have two iPods and did not see a reason to buy another one. But the new Pedometer feature is compelling.

Plus the multi-touch interface means I can swipe from one icon to another. The pricing from US$129 (S$169), makes it a serious purchase consideration.

The iPhone 4S, the iPod Nano and a white iPod touch were the new devices that were launched at Apple’s campus in Cupertino, California, and also streamed live to its London store in Covent Garden.
