The latest offering from Apple has the iPhone updated to a faster and a bit leaner design. What are the latest updates to the iPhone ? Check it out here in this review article on the new iPhone, the 3GS.

You may not have noticed it but the new iPhone 3GS weighs just a bit less than the older iPhones. This is a big strange since the newer 3GS is also larger than its predecessor. But the basic dimensions are hardly a difference that can be noticed. The newer model iPhone is just a millimeter thicker than the earlier models. The screen has more performance with the 3G S, but the size has not changed. The latest model has a screen that reveals an impressive 16.7 million colors. This makes the screen much more life-like and videos and photos are rendered more naturally.

One setback for the iPhone 3G S with its new abilities is that the battery is drained faster than the older models. The 600 Megahertz processor is hungry for power and drains the battery faster than usual. The old iPhone had a talktime of eight hours, the newer model can handle just five hours of talk time. This may mean you will need to carry an extra battery with you. If this is unacceptable there are extended life batteries available that will help with the short talk time. 600 Megahertz is becoming a normal speed for mobile devices these days so battery technology will need to catch up soon.

Yes, the 3Gs. Does that little ‘s’ tagged on the end make that big of a difference? You better believe it! This nifty new toy, released by Apple on June 19th, features twice the speed of the traditional iPhone 3G. Generally when we see a technology update it is only slightly faster. Companies that produce processors, GPU’s, and the like all tend to release a ‘new and improved’ product, charge twice what the model below costs, and gain very little in any noticeable performance. Apple should be commended on this upgrade as it is one of few out there that is truly worth it.

This phone offers more than just a power update. Countless add-ons have been installed such as the new 3.0 megapixel camera that you may take VIDEO with! Finally, Apple, finally! One of the biggest gripes with previous versions was the lack of video support. How could they leave this out? I really don’t know. Phones released years and years ago had this support, alas, at least you may have it now. Seemingly in order to ‘make amends’ for leaving out such a standard feature, Apple has put video editing software directly into the iPhone’s software. This is truly phenomenal. I can think of no other phone that offers such an incredible program in such a small device.
