Tech Brief: Apples Announces the iPhone 4s
Posted by Bryan Maggi on Tue, Oct 04, 2011 @ 03:37 PM
Today Apple announced their new iPhone, for
good or bad, it is now here.
The question now is if you are an iPhone user or are planning on becoming one how will this new iPhone work for you? The new iPhone, dubbed iPhone 4s, is basically the same phone as the previous model.
The big difference between the two is all in the “S”. It now contains the A5 chip found in the iPad2. The new features include an improved antenna for reception, higher quality camera capabilties, most of all is Siri. Siri is amazing. Siri lets you use your voice to send messages, schedule meetings, place phone calls, and find a local mexican cantina nearby. It will not only find it for you, but remember it.
The real feature on the new 4s is the fact that iOS5 will be coming out soon for both the 4 and the 4s. What does this mean? iOS5 will have a drop down notification feature, reminders with geo location “fences”, and even an app that will allow you to send get well cards" strait from the phone.
All in all it is a great phone for both business and personal use. Probably the best phone on the market for at least 6 months. Naturally, all good things have a nice price. Therefore, if you are currently under contract with provider, check to see when your upgrade date is due. Otherwise, you will end up spending full retail price for the iPhone 4s. For more details, ask your IT service provider or IT management partner.
