Apple iPhone 4 Review

32 GB Verizon CDMA     See other variants reviews Score: 60.8 / 100

Apple iPhone 4 is a mid-end iOS phone released many years ago, equipped with a medium sized 3.5 inches multi-touch capacitive screen, a fast 1000 megahertz processing unit, and two cameras, a 5 megapixels back-facing camera and a 0.3 megapixels front facing camera.

This cellphone ships with a fast 1000 MHz processing unit, included in the Apple A4 chip and 512 MB of RAM. This cellphone comes with an amazing 32 GB internal storage and while it doesn't include an external memory card slot, it is still enough to install hundreds of apps without even thinking about running out of space.

Regarding its body design materials, the iPhone 4 is mostly built with Glass and Aluminium, giving it a premium feel and an extra resistance. Being just 0.37 inches thick,this cellphone is very slim and good-looking. Apple is offering this cellphone in 2 different colors, black and white. Apple forgot about weight optimization in this 4.83 oz phone, way heavier than other similar phones.

The Apple iPhone 4 has two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 0.3 mega-pixels front camera. Its back-facing camera lens has a F2.8 aperture so it has problems taking sharp photographs in dark conditions. It also captures HD 1280x720 videos at 30 frames per second. In addition, the camera features some good characteristics like auto-focus, flash and geo tagging.

This cellphone includes a beautiful 960 x 640 3.5-inches screen, which makes everything look brightful and colorful. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and is multi-touch enabled.

This phone provides wi-fi connectivity (which it can share with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot) and 3G connection type, over EV-DO A technologies. This cellphone doesn't use a sim card, because it doesn't work with GSM connections and it works in CDMA carriers.

This phone also features a few useful features such as Bluetooth (allows communication with other bluetooth devices and accessories) and GPS Geolocation, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

This cellphone counts with a medium 1420 mAh Li-Ion non-removable battery that provides this cellphone a quite short battery life. Apple afirms this cellphone has a talk time of 7 hs and a stand by time of 300 hs. A possible problem to take into consideration is that the Apple iPhone 4's battery is non-removable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to get older, leaving no choice but to buy a new device or hopefully take the phone to someone who can disassemble it and replace the battery.

Apple offers this phone for $ 545, which is not a good offer for this type of cellphone. The iPhone 4 is probably a great choice for you no matter if you are looking for a gaming cellphone or want it mostly for internet broswing and social networks.
