Enter the iPhone
Now within the ranks of smartphones, enter the iPhone, Apple's entry into the smartphone market. Apple's iPhone is basically an internet capable, multimedia 2.75G quad-based GSM mobile phone. It comes with the ever popular features of smartphones like text messaging capabilities, e-mail capabilities and web browsing functions. The iPhone's user interface comes in the form of a multi-touch screen, coupled with buttons and a virtual keyboard input system. It comes with a 2 megapixel camera, perfect for taking pictures, and is built in with Wi-Fi connectivity capabilities.
What makes it a standout smartphone is the iPhone's storage size, which range from 4 gigabyte and 8 gigabyte models. With that much storage space, the iPhone is also quite the portable music player, as well as the portable video player.
The iPhone is run by an optimized version of the popular Mac OS X operating system, which works on an iPhone's ARM processor. The Mac OS X running in an iPhone differs from the desktop version, in the sense that the desktop Mac OS X runs on the PowerPC ISA and x86 systems, and is specifically written for it. All in all, the Mac OS X operating system in an iPhone is one without the unnecessary components which make the Mac OS X operating system for Mac desktop or laptop computers.
The iPhone's operating systems takes up about 700 megabytes off the 4 or 8 gig storage the phone is built with, and is capable of supporting applications from Apple.
Located on the back of an iPhone would be its 2.0 megapixel camera. The camera comes with zoom in and zoom out features, which could be accessed through the phone's multi touch user interface. Accessing the pictures taken by an iPhone could be easily done with Apple's iPhoto software on a Mac computer or laptop.
Though the iPhone's appearance bears certain resemblance to that of Apple's ever popular iPod, the iPhone's music library is different from an iPod's music library interface. The layout of the iPhone's music library appears to have larger font sizes, and is divided much more clearly, making it much easier for users to select songs and playlists. Just like an iPod, the iPhone is capable of sorting songs by genres, composers, artists, albums and compilations. It comes with Cover Flow, which shows album covers of songs in a slide-show like style.
The iPhone takes after the 2005 generation of iPods, which are capable of playing video files, as well as watch TV shows and movies. It plays on a landscape-oriented view, with video files capable of being zoomed in, to fill the iPhones screen.
All in all, the iPhone stands to be a major contender in the smartphone market, expanding Apple's horizons with their products.
