Say 'Hi' to iPhone 3G S

Welcome Apple iPhone 3G S
Apple iPhone 3G S, probably the greatest smart phone anyone could talk about after the news broke of its new and improved features at this week's Worldwide Developers Conference 2009. It looks to be yet another lust-worthy gadget from Apple Corporation, but the most important info you can take away from this is that it will be launched in Malaysia sometime in July, a source close to Maxis says. (Darn do we have to follow Maxis' plan again?)

Due to be released on 19 June, the iPhone 3G S seems like a fully-featured smart phone. However, I don't think the incremental changes in hardware would be enough to entice current iPhone owners to upgrade. The good news is that Maxis might be bringing in the new model to Malaysia in July. Keep your fingers cross! Well, I mean cross. What can you expect from Maxis?


What's so good about Apple iPhone 3G S?
Improved Graphic Quality and Gaming Performance
The reasonably fast processing of the previous model is now apparently two times faster, thanks to the new 600MHz processor with 256MB RAM on board. This speed bump covers execution and launching of applications, and also performance of the embedded Safari web browser too. Apple Corporation also claims that iPhone 3G S features improved graphics performance. That's why we should expect to see better game performance, as well as games of increased visual complexity.

Video Trimming
Video recording is available at 30fps VGA, as well as auto white balance, auto exposure and auto focus too. You can too perform video editing, or video trimming with just a touch of your finger.

Copy, Cut and Paste
Ahh, the most wanted Copy, Cut and Paste function. You can perform this action from anywhere to any iPhone apps. What more could you be bargaining?

Voice Control
If you are using iPhone 3G S now, you can now talk to your iPhone to dial any contact, or numbers, to play a song. You can even ask your iPhone about the song's title you are currently playing as though your iPhone is a know-it-all device.

Maps + Compass
Now you can bring your iPhone into a jungle. The compiled compass may avoid you getting lost when you trek.

3.0 Megapixel Camera
Unlike iPhone 3G, iPhone 3G S comes with in-built 3.0 Megapixel Camera. What's more? Autofocus function is too supported in iPhone 3G S, which iPhone 3G doesn't.
*Captured photos can be e-mailed, sent as MMS, used as wallpaper etc.*

*Comes with Video Recording too*


Search
Explore your iPhone with the included Search function in iPhone 3G S. Search everywhere in your iPhone.
*iPhone spotlight search. Search everywhere in your iPhone*


Voice Memo
Through Voice Memo, you can now record your own voice and save it inside your iPhone. Voice Memo can be used as a reminder to remind yourself on something or during lecture class.

*Voice recording, replaying, trimming and e-mailing. All in Voice Memo*

Price
Some photos of iPhone pricing

*iPhone 3G plunges till $99*


*iPhone 3G S - Twice as fast, half the price*

Pricing of iPhone 3G will be plunged down to $99 while iPhone 3G S 16GB and 32GB will be priced at $199 and $299 respectively. Of course it's not that cheap as it comes with Maxis plan. (Of course I hope not).
