Apple has retained the same design and retina display on the new iPhone, it is called the 4S. However, it seems that a lot has changed on the inside. Compared to the iPhone 4, the 4S has an all new processor, antenna design, camera and faster HSDPA speeds. The iPhone 4S becomes a world phone, so no separate GSM and CDMA models, Verizon, AT&T on the same model for US. A good number of changes are on the software front with the iOS 5, at this moment we aren’t sure what makes it to 4S and not to the iPhone 4. The Siri powered voice controls look cool though!
Apple had a lot of camera improvements to show, be it full HD video recording or the speed at which you can snap pictures from this 8MP shooter. Apple has put its claim forth, better than point to shoot cameras! We would wait till the claim is validated, but for now, here is a quick look at the specs: iPhone 4S vs the iPhone 4.
