Apple iPhone 3GS is a fair quality cellphone launched back in 2009, which features a 3.5 inches capacitive display, a 3 MP back facing camera and a good 600 MHz CPU.
Apple didn't seem to put much effort to reduce weight in this 4.76 oz phone. This cellphone is sold in two different colors, black and white.
Apple designed the Apple iPhone 3GS with a good 3.5-inches screen, and a resolution of 480 x 320 , giving this phone a decent image quality. Its screen uses LCD capacitive technology, and allows multi-touch for gestures like pinch and zoom.
Apple decided to build this phone using a powerful 600 megahertz processing unit with as little as 256 MB RAM memory. A good point of this phone is its 32 GB big internal memory and whereas it doesn't come with an external SD slot, it is still enough to store tons of apps, games, pictures and videos without even thinking about running out of space at all.
The Apple iPhone 3GS counts with wifi connection (but it can't provide it to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot) and 3G fast connection type, using HSDPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. This cellphone uses a SIM card to use GSM services.
The iPhone 3GS is equipped with only a 3 megapixels back facing camera. It can also film videos up to 640x480 (VGA) at 30 frames per second. In addition, this phone's camera also features geo tagging and auto-focus.
This cellphone also comes with a handful of cool features like Bluetooth (2.1, EDR) and GPS Localization, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
This phone comes with a 1219 mAh medium Li-Ion non-removable battery providing this phone with a not very long battery life. According to Apple, the iPhone 3GS has a reported stand by time of 300 hours and a talk time of 12 hs. An important issue to take into account is that this phone's battery is not removable so you won't be able to replace it when it begins to live shorter, having to buy a new device to "solve it" or maybe take the phone to an expert who can dismantle it and change its battery.
Apple offers this phone for $ 170, which is very expensive for a cellphone this level.
