We had some alone time with the iPhone 4 at the DiGi launch and took the opportunity to take some detailed snap shots of the device and compare it with its predecessor, the iPhone 3GS.
While we welcome the enhancements in hardware, realistically, we don’t see the real need for 3GS owners to upgrade to the iPhone 4.
We like the Retina Display and the 5MP camera is a tremendous improvement over the 3MP offering on the 3GS but in terms of day to day use, the 3GS is just as smooth and can do most of the things the iPhone 4 can just as well.
Sure there’s no FaceTime on the 3GS but how often is the typical user going to use that feature?
Well, that’s our initial impression of the iPhone 4. It’s nice and everything but if you’re already using the iPhone 3GS and you’re not an Apple fanboy, you might not see what the fuss is all about. However, if you’re using an iPhone 3G and is looking to upgrade that, yes, please get the iPhone 4.
This is of course not our conclusive findings, we purchased an iPhone 4 at the Maxis launch (sorry DiGi) and will be looking at the device in detail in these few days. Look out for our review soon.
In the meantime, head on over to after the jump for a collection of pictures and some videos comparing the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 3GS side by side.
What do you think 3GS owners, would you get the iPhone 4? Comment us.
Apple says that the iPhone 4 is the thinnest smartphone in the world and although the data tells you that, the look and feel of the iPhone 4 tells a different story. I looks, to us, chunky from this angle. In fact, the Samsung Galaxy S looks and feels thinner.
The first thing you’ll notice about the iPhone 4 is its built quality. The hardened glass chassis and the stainless steel wraparound frame lends the device an incredibly high level of tactile pleasure. It feels like a crafted rather than mass produced.
Next to the iPhone 3GS, you’ll notice immediately how much better the screen on the iPhone 4 really is. The Retina Display a wider viewing angle on top of its bright, crisp and clear renditions of the iPhone 4’s UI icons.
The design of the iPhone 4 creates an optical illusion that makes it look like it is thicker than it actually is. You can see clearly here that although the iPhone 3GS is a full 3mm thicker than the iPhone 4, they look to be of the same thickness. In fact, in some angles, the 3GS looks thinner.
