Apple iPhone 4S : This is the number one Smartphone in the world, Of course It has a Retina display, of course it’s glass on the back… but don’t be deceived, because inside it’s all NEW. It has A5 Chip (2x faster than before, with dual-core graphics, which are said to be seven times faster than previous iPhone.)

 

 

Features of iPhone 4S

 

I ) – iOS

The World’s most advanced Mobile operating system, With its easy-to-use interface, amazing features, and rock-solid stability, iOS is the foundation of iPhone. And even as others try to catch up, the technologies and features built into iOS keep iPhone years ahead…

 

- Elegant and intuitive interface.

You know how to use iPhone from the first time you pick it up. That’s because the revolutionary Multi-Touch interface in iOS was designed for your finger. And the simple, beautiful Home screen is the easiest place to start. From built-in apps to over 500,000 apps available from the App Store. From making a FaceTime call to editing a video with iMovie. Everything you touch is easy, intuitive, and fun.

- Notification Center

It’s the one place where you’ll see what’s up. iPhone works with your apps to let you know about missed messages, calendar invitations, friend requests, and more. New notifications appear discreetly at the top of your screen. And you can see a summary of recent notifications when you swipe down from the top of any screen.

 

- Messages with iMessage

Now you can text it up with fellow iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch users running iOS 5. Messages with iMessage are unlimited.1 And secure, too. Talk to all your friends or family at once with group messaging. See who’s reading with delivery and read receipts. And if words aren’t enough, send photos, videos, locations, and contacts.

 

- Twitter Integration

Twitter is integrated into iOS 5, so you can sign in once under Settings and begin tweeting directly from Safari, Photos, Camera, YouTube, and Maps. You can even start typing a friend’s Twitter handle and iOS will autocomplete the rest from your contacts.

- Photos

Touch up photos right on your iPhone — without the help of photo editing software on a computer. Crop, rotate, enhance, and remove red-eye. Then organize your shots into albums, so you know exactly where your favorites are when the next photo-sharing opportunity presents itself.

- Reminders

You’ll never miss an important deadline, errand, or grocery item thanks to Reminders. Create lists of things to do that you can check off as you go. Even add due dates and locations — pick up mustard at the store after work, for example. Reminders knows exactly when and where to send you an alert.

II )  Dual-Core A5 Chip

 

The most powerful iPhone processor ever. Two cores in the A5 chip deliver up to two times more power and up to seven times faster graphics.2 And you’ll feel the effects. Fast. iPhone 4S is quick and responsive, which makes all the difference when you’re launching apps, browsing the web, gaming, and doing just about everything. And no matter what you’re doing, you can keep on doing it. Because the A5 chip is so power-efficient, iPhone 4S has outstanding battery life.

iPhone 4S is great for gamers. The A5 chip pushes graphics up to seven times faster. So games run smoother and they’re even more realistic. And graphics-intensive apps perform even better.

III ) Camera

 

This just might be the best camera ever on a phone. And with all-new optics, it just might be the only camera you need. Because behind every shot, you’ve got 8-megapixel resolution and a custom lens with a larger f/2.4 aperture. Not to mention an improved backside illumination sensor, excellent auto white balance, advanced color accuracy, face detection, and reduced motion blur. It all means that no matter how many people, how much light, and how much action you capture, everything looks exactly as it should. And just wait until you see the photos.

The iPhone 4S camera gives you 8 megapixels — that’s 60 percent more pixels than the camera on iPhone 4. And they’re engineered with a higher, full-well capacity to collect even more light. With more megapixels and more light, you’ll see a dramatic difference in the resolution and details of

IV ) 1080p HD Video Recording

 Shoot stunning 1080p HD video everywhere you go. With all-new optics, the light is always right, the color is always vivid, and everything will look even better than you remember. Video stabilization steadies shaky shots. And you can edit video right on iPhone and share your lush life as fast as you shoot.

V ) Siri

Now you can use your voice to use your iPhone. Just talk to Siri as you would to a person: “Do I need an umbrella?” or “Any great burgers around here?” or “Where’s the closest ATM?” Siri not only understands what you say, it knows what you mean.1 It figures out the right apps to use to find the right answer. Then, just like a personal assistant, it answers you. Siri makes phone calls, sends messages, schedules meetings, sets reminders, and more. How much more? Just ask, and Siri tells you that, too.

VI ) Battery Life

 

iPhone 4S will offer Eight hours of 3G talk time. Six hours of browsing, Nine on WiFi. 10 hours of video, and 40 hours of music. “Fantastic battery life.”

 

VII ) AirPlay Mirroring

AirPlay Mirroring is now happening, meaning you can get your gaming on the big(ger) screen… Wired or Wireless!

VIII ) iCloud – Your content On all your devices.

.

iCloud is the easiest way to manage all your stuff, because it manages it all for you. iCloud stores your music, photos, apps, mail, contacts, calendars, documents, and more. And wirelessly pushes them to all your devices. It’s automatic, effortless, and seamless. And it just works.

With iCloud, the music you buy in iTunes appears automatically on all your devices. You can also download your past iTunes purchases. So your music collection goes where you go.

 

IX ) Retina Display

The sharpest, most vibrant thing you’ll see on iPhone 4S is everything. The Retina display is the highest-resolution phone screen ever. In fact, the pixel density is so high that the human eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels. But without a doubt, you’ll notice crisp text, sharp graphics, and stunning images. It’s more remarkable than the printed page. And you’ll be completely absorbed.

X ) FaceTime. It’s even better face-to-face.

 

FaceTime lets you hear a voice and see the face that goes with it – iPhone to iPhone, iPad 2, iPod touch, or Mac over Wi-Fi.5 So no matter where they are, no matter where you are, you’ll always be there. Making a FaceTime call is just as easy as making a phone call. And it’s even easier with Siri. Just tell Siri “FaceTime with Mom” and you show up, smile, and wave hello. You’ll never miss a big event, an important meeting, or a good laugh.

 

XI ) AirPrint – Print everything wirelessly.

 


Print your email, photos, web pages, and documents right from your iPhone over Wi-Fi.7 There’s no software to download, no drivers to install, and no cables to connect. With just a few taps, you can go from viewing something on the iPhone screen to holding a printed copy.

XII ) Call it better, faster, and even more worldly.


Maximum Data Download Speeds (HSDPA)
iPhone 4S : 14.4 Mbps
iPhone 4 :7.2 Mbps

iPhone 4S is the first phone to intelligently switch between two antennas to transmit and receive, so call quality is better. It also doubles the maximum HSDPA data speeds to 14.4 Mbps.8 Which means faster connections, faster loading and reloading, and faster downloads. And iPhone 4S is a world phone, so you can use it almost anywhere. Whether you’re a GSM or CDMA customer, you can roam GSM networks in 200 countries around the world.

 Price in Pakistan

Right now only Home Shopping PK is offering the iPhone 4S, You can place your order on there website & they are saying if you place your order now you’ll get it on October 16th. Right now the Price they are offering is too high it’s 99,000.00 /- PKR (16 GB Factory Unlock) & it’s almost double of the price Apple is offering for iPhone 4S 649 (Canadian Dollars)

Well as this is just the starting and due to the long lines you see outside apple stores at their product launches we are unable to get the desired amount of units in the first few days due to the global demand so either we can wait and watch the price come down or we can offer others who already got the phone a higher price and buy it from them so we can have these shipped . This way we are able to get the phones but are usually at a higher price in the first few days but as the international demand slows down or the response is not all that good then the price would come down fast.

WWDC 2011: Keynote Preview

0

The Apple rumor mill is in high gear with only a few hours left until Steve Jobs kicks off the keynote speech at Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference on Monday. The company has already said it plans to talk about Mac OS X 10.7 “Lion,” iOS 5 and a new cloud service called iCloud, but nobody knows for sure what surprises each new product will offer users.

Apple has already previewed OS X Lion and developers have had beta versions of the new OS for several weeks. However, there is a rumor that Lion could be available for purchase as early as next week via the Apple Store and, reportedly, the Mac App Store.

WWDC 2011: Keynote Preview

Apple has had almost nothing to say about iOS 5 and iCloud so far. Most believe that iCloud will include some kind of music streaming service that makes your music collection accessible on any device with an Internet connection. Apple’s iOS 5 is said to be getting new social networking integration, beefed-up speech recognition, widgets, and a new notification system.

Many critics are also saying that Apple execs are feeling very excited and bullish about today’s event. So whatever happens, it sounds like today’s WWDC keynote event could be a game changer for Apple device users. Here’s what to expect during today’s keynote including the latest rumors, prognostication, and predictions.

 

iOS 5

WWDC 2011: Keynote Preview

Photo Credit: TechCrunch Twitter Integration: Deep iOS integration with Twitter is expected in the next version of Apple’s iOS. This will reportedly include a one-touch button that lets you share a photo via Twitter using the social network’s new image sharing service. But there could me more to this new feature as well. Uber blogger Robert Scoble recently said via Twitter that today’s announcement would be “huge” for Twitter fans.

Voice Recognition: It’s not clear what this new feature might be, but most expect Apple to revamp voice recognition in iOS 5. Apple acquired Siri in 2010, an iPhone productivity app with excellent voice recognition. The company also recently made a rumored deal with Nuance Communications, makers of Dragon Naturally Speaking.

Revamped Notifications: Apple could also reveal a new notifications system for iOS that improves upon the modular red buttons the mobile OS uses right now. Apple recently hired Peter Hajas, developer of MobileNotifier an iPhone app for jailbroken devices to help with the effort, according to Apple Insider. One theory floating around is that notifications may pop down from the top bar where the iPhone and iPad currently display the time, battery power left and so on, according to TechCrunch.

Automatic Downloads: Apple may introduce automatic over-the-air downloads to iOS devices for third-party applications. It doesn’t appear this expected new feature would be a background updating solution.

Widgets: Taking a page out of Google’s Android OS (not to mention OS X’s Dashboard) iOS may be getting widgets–small programs that quickly deliver basic information such as flight times or weather.

icloud

iCloud

Music Streaming: Apple reportedly has deals in place with all four major U.S. labels to let you stream to any device via the Internet. The new service will reportedly scan your hard drive and then automatically let you start streaming your music with no physical uploading required by you. This functionality is similar to Lala, a service Apple acquired in 2009. What’s not clear is whether automatic music streaming will extend to your entire collection or just your music purchases.

Video Streaming: A more uncertain rumor is that Apple is hard at work on allowing you to stream music and television rentals and purchases to any device as well. But Apple reportedly doesn’t have the deals in place to make this a reality.

iCloud = MobileMe: Another rumor being floated about iCloud is that it will either replace or absorb MobileMe functionality including contacts, email and calendar sync.

iCloud = iTunes, literally: Daring Fireball blogger John Gruber, who has a respectable record when it comes to Apple predictions, expects iCloud to be more than just music streaming or a revamped MobileMe. Gruber expects that iCloud will literally be able to replace iTunes by saving backups of your phone’s apps, videos, music, contacts, calendar, bookmarks, notes and files stored in any apps (such as PDFs in iBooks). But don’t take this iCloud rumor to the bank as Gruber says this rumor comes from a fourth-hand source.

iCloud + Time Capsule = Dropbox: Cult of Mac believes new Time Capsule hardware could debut at WWDC that be a cloud-local storage hybrid. The current Time Capsule is a home Wi-Fi router and external hard drive for Time Machine backups that comes in 1 TB and 2 TB storage sizes.

The rumored new Time Capsule would use the iCloud service to sync files across all your devices similar to the seamless way Dropbox works. You would have a dedicated “Home Folder” where you store files you want to sync, and they would be updated across your multiple devices. But instead of storing your files on Apple’s servers, the data would always reside in your Time Capsule hardware. ICloud servers would be used instead as a delivery system to move updated and new files between devices. Time Capsule would also continue to work as a backup solution and may work similar to backup services such as Carbonite that allow you to access all your stored data across multiple devices. However, it appears the new rumored service would only push file changes back to Time Capsule for data stored in the “Home Folder.”

Another interesting rumor is that both Time Capsule and Apple’s AirPort Express Wi-Fi router are going to have iOS under the hood.

OS X 10.7 "Lion"

OS X 10.7, Lion

Apple has already talked about Lion a fair bit so much of what is going on in Lion is already known, although Apple may surprise us with a few new features.

June 14: 9-to-5 Mac has heard that Apple may release the latest version of OS X as early as next Tuesday, June 14.

Find My Mac: A late rumor that came out last week is that Apple plans to introduce a Find My Mac feature in Lion similar to the Find My iPhone service. This would allow you to locate the general location of your Mac on a map, send it alert messages to display such as “Help! I’m lost please call 555-555-5555,” and maybe even a remote wipe feature.

No PowerPC: Apple is rumored to be killing backwards compatibility with PowerPC software in Lion. Apple switched to Intel processors for its hardware in 2006, and Intel Macs came loaded with an emulator to run programs written for PowerPC-based computers.

iOS inspired: LaunchPad, is a new feature that will let you view your Mac’s installed applications on one screen. Lion will also come with support for full screen apps similar to what Apple did with iLife 11.

For more about the next version of OS X check out Macworld’s “What to expect from Mac OS X Lion including freeze and resume, always on, version history and autosave, and new versions of iCal, Mail and Address Book.
