Er zijn altijd wat vroege vogels, zo zijn nu ook al de eerste reviews van de iPhone 4 opgedoken. Echte reviews kan je het niet noemen, eerder een eerste indruk. Over het algemeen is iedereen zeer positief over het toestel.

“We can’t overstate how high-end the design of the iPhone 4 is. The 3GS now feels cheap and chubby by comparison, and even a phone like the HTC Droid Incredible — which just came out — seems last-generation.” [..] “The battery life on the iPhone 4 has been outstanding thus far, exceeding our expectations for longevity during testing. ” [..] “the iPhone 4 is the best smartphone on the market right now” [..] ” it’s tough to deny that Apple has moved one step past the competition with this phone” lees volledig review…

“The first thing you notice is the new shape. Despite a beefier battery (16 percent more likely to last a full day), a faster processor and upgraded everything, the new model is still noticeably thinner and narrower than before. How is that possible? In part, the trick was squaring off the back. It’s no longer gracefully curved – a design that, if you think about it, created wasted space around the rectangular components. The new iPhone is two glass slabs, front and back, wrapped by a stainless-steel band.”
CNET
“”Apple has a unique talent for making us want something we never knew we wanted. The iPhone 4 features a 940×640-pixel (or 300 326 pixels per square inch) “Retina Display,” which is four times the resolution of previous iPhone models. What’s more, it uses the same IPS display that’s found on the iPad with an 800:1 contrast ratio. Though we’ve always thought highly of the current iPhone displays, Apple rarely rests on its laurels. Also, the company needs to compete with the gorgeous AMOLED screens and TFT displays we’ve seen on many Android phones like the HTC Evo 4G.”

“Both Apple and AT&T told me they worked to make the iPhone 4 do a better job with AT&T’s network. For example, the phone itself is surrounded by a prominent stainless-steel trim piece that acts as a large antenna. And Apple said it also tuned the phone to try to grab whatever band on the network was less congested or less affected by interference-to stress the quality of a signal over its raw strength. AT&T said it, too, made some changes to its network with the new iPhone in mind.
