Unlocked US iPhone 4 in Market
At a time when the whole world is waiting anxiously for the latest and greatest version of mobile phones by Apple, iPhone 5, the company has taken all by surprise by releasing an unlocked version of its iPhone 4 in the United States market. Though iPhones of unlocked version are not uncommon in most countries, the customers still require getting it via a contract with a mobile operator for getting subsidized prices for the product. Nevertheless, the news is that all iPhones sold by Apple will not require any contract with mobile operators and the iPhones sold by AT&T at subsidized rates will be SIM locked. Thus, the customers require a hefty price to pay for purchasing the unsubsidized unlocked iPhone.
The unlocked GSM iPhone is not connected with any mobile carrier and the model is not SIM-locked. Thus, it can be used by other mobile networks and SIM cards too. This adaptability feature is perfect for those who require frequent travelling and switching of mobile operators and SIM often. It also allows for switching and using multiple SIM cards with one iPhone. The GSM version of unlocked iPhone 4 can be activated by inserting an active micro-SIM card from any supported GSM mobile carriers. Post this, the setup process can be completed by iTunes by connecting the unlocked iPhone 4 to the computer. Free activation via iTunes will be possible once the iOS 5 is released. At present, only the GSM version of unlocked iPhone 4 is available which is available for sale at all Apple stores in black or white colour with a price tag of $649 (16GB) and $749 (32GB), respectively.
Get Ready to Experience the 4G Connectivity on next iphone
You will be amazed to hear about the new iphone with brand new 4G experience but only for AT&T’s users. Well, it is big news for AT&T’s iphone 5 users but not for Verizon users as they would not be able to experience the increased speed. This can be understood from the fact that the AT&T iphone 5 users can experience download speed ranging from 5-10 Mbps. However, for Verizon users, the speed remains 1 Mbps. Rethemeier gives the information about this next iphone. But no one knows exactly about its launching date. Some even call it a rumour and this rumour has made its place in the market a few weeks before.
iphone 5 with 4G is a kind of new advent which we all are waiting for. It offers a tremendous downloading speed and will work in other networks as well. However, some people claims that iphone 5 is just an advanced version of iphone 4 and just consider it is a slight revision of the previous successful set. Apple is now expected to launch any new iphone before September at WWDC. Instead of launching of new iphone hardware, WWDC 2011 will host software launch and three software namely iOS 5, Mac OS X Lion and Apple’s new iCloud service are on their way of launch in the market very soon. This news has been confirmed by Apple and this launch will bring a big revolution in the software industry as well and it is really big news for iphone users. The launching of iphone 5 is indeed big news for which we have our fingers crossed and it will launch soon after this big launch. It will be great to use the new iphone and new software.
All about Apple’s New iPhone 5
The next generation iPhone is scheduled for a launch this June. With the fast flying rumours about the leak of iPhone 5 features, the market is buzzing aloud with questions regarding what exactly will be the new iPhone 5 features. Will there be a complete change in its design or it will be an enhanced version of the latest model by Apple – iPhone4? Read on in order to know all about iPhone5.
The concept of iPhone5 has been designed by item. The new iPhone 5 features a clear glass in the front as well as on rear side. Similar to the iPhone’s of previous generations, the edges are back in this phone and are rounded in shape. The iPhone 5 features also include a touch sensitive Home/Menu button. The new iPhone 5 is rumoured to have more of an iPod touch or resembling mini iPad2 but with a bigger display size of 3.7’’. The other iPhone features suggest that the phone could have a wedge or teardrop shape.
The iPhone5 is speculated to be built with a multi-core Cortex A9 chip inside, a Qualcomm chipset supporting CDMA, UMTS as well as GSM baseband support but lacking in providing a 4G LTE support. By supporting these technologies, this smartphone would be able to compete with both AT&T and Verizon.
The fifth generation smartphone could also feature a slide out keyboard. Apple is said to be using the same 30-pin connecter which has been used in the earlier devices. The device could be “slightly thicker’’ but could also have a “sliding cover” to contain a hardware keyboard. It could instead have a thinner bezel. Steve Jobs has also said that the new iPhone5 might have some incarnation of turn by turn GPS directions thus suggesting at turn maps in the new iPhone5.
Thus with a wide array of speculations regarding the features, all about iPhone 5 still remains dubious. But this phone will certainly transform the way mobile phones are used.
