Apple unveils the new iPhone 5
Apple
finally unveiled the new version of their popular iPhone on September 12, 2012
at a media event at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco. The
device will be called iPhone 5 as it was introduced by the Marketing Chief of
Apple, Phil Schiller, at the event. The event also revealed several other
significant details about the phone, including a larger screen, a faster
processor and quicker web browsing experience. In this post I’ll discuss some
of the noteworthy modifications Apple made to the new version of iPhone.
The screen is larger
The
display screen of iPhone 5 size is larger than the previous versions at 4
inches. The width of the phone is same as iPhone 4, but the height has been
increased by almost a centimeter. But more importantly, the LCD is Retina
display. In simple words, this means that it has a pixel density that makes it
impossible for your eyes to distinguish the individual pixels. So at 326 pixels
per inch you can experience the best quality picture and video on your iPhone
5. The color saturation has also been increased by 44% that makes the bright
screen spring to live at a single touch. You can watch any widescreen HD videos
on your iPhone 5, without any letterboxing to irritate you.
The phone is faster than ever before
Equipped
with the new A6 chip, the CPU performance is much faster than your last iPhone.
Apple claims that it is at least twice as fast as the iPhone running on the A5
chip. Applications will open up faster, web pages download faster and email
attachments open up right away. Even the graphics performance has been
improved, so your apps and games will show much better graphics performance.
Now you will be able to enjoy your favorite games with higher frame rates that
will give you much smoother gaming experience.
The batter life has improved
Not
only is the iPhone 5 slimmer and faster, it now also has a longer battery life
than any of your old phones. The A6 chip synchronized perfectly with the new
iOS 6 to give superior performance using minimum battery power. In spite of
more powerful graphics and faster speed, the battery life is long enough to
last throughout the day. It can provide up to 8 hours of talk time, 8 hours of
internet browsing at LTE speeds and up to 10 hours of video playback time.
The 8 megapixel camera
The
8MP iSight camera on the iPhone 5 has a sapphire crystal lens. So the lens
surface will be less prone to scratches as Sapphire is one of the hardest
transparent materials after diamond. Apple claims that taking photos is now 40
percent faster than capturing a scene from your iPhone 4. They also claim
improved performance in low-light conditions and a better noise reduction
filter. You can also snap pictures while recording a video, so you never miss
any moment worth capturing.
