4G iPhone Set For April Release
The latest iPhone product could be hitting shelves by April 2010 if the latest reports are anything to go by. The new hardware will feature a range of upgrades including a dual-core processor, a video chat facility, better graphics, an OLED display and most surprisingly, a removable battery.
Reports are referring to the latest handset as being the 4G iPhone or iPhone 4G. The 4G in ‘iPhone 4G’ refers to ‘fourth generation’ as opposed to 4G wireless broadband technologies. Similar to the latest Google phone, the nexus one, and the new 4G Apple iPhone will utilise a state of the art OLED display screen. The live video chat functionality will also come as a welcome addition to the iPhone. The handset will have two camera modules to handle live video chat, one module positioned as normal on the back of the phone and a new camera module on the front.
Reg Hardware seem to think that the addition of a removable battery to the iPhone 4G is ‘highly unlikely’. Based upon the fact that no previous iPhone, iPod or MacBook model has contained such a feature. However, rumblings of new European legislation suggest that new handsets must come equipped with a removable battery. Early indications suggest the 4G iPhone will come equipped with a battery that is twice as powerful as the current 3G and 3GS iPhone handsets.
Despite all the speculation, the phrase and misuse of the term 4G iPhone will undoubtedly cause even more confusion amongst potential suitors.
