Apple iPhone 4S

Apple's latest smart phone is nothing new, its the same redesigned smart phone with very little of an upgrade. For early adopters, this can be quite the disappointment. The iPhone 4S has the same functional design, all the basics of the iPhone 4 and the upgrades only circle around its processor and camera. There's an additional complex voice-control system to boot plus worldwide capability for Sprint and Verizon subsrcibers. Apple claims to have improved the antenna layout, which was discovered to have poor reception problems in the iPhone 4. Though the iPhone 4S's top-speed, dual-core processor can execute graphic runs much faster than the old iPhone 4, this new rendition is also expected to download much faster but won't run at par on the top-speed 4G networks.

The iPhone 4S is a step-up from the imaging functionality of the iPhone 4. The old iPhone 4's 5-megapixel camera is now an 8-megapixel one on the iPhone 4S. The photos are 30 percent sharper and can shoot within 1.1 seconds in a click, faster than most smart phones in the market. Other capabilities include Face detection and video-image stabilization, and HD video capability at 1080p resolution.

Mobile Video Chat Apps

Make video calls across the mobile gadget divide, from intuitive smartphones, tablets and notebooks- what video chat app should you go for? And can fully give you you're needed face time?



The champion videochat app on desktops is definitely Skype followed by GoogleTalk video and Yahoo Messenger Video Chat.

If you have an Apple device- iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad- then you're all set with FaceTime. Its pre-installed, runs on the iOS, Mac OS X platform and works well on MacBooks. In terms of features, its very user-friendly, easy to navigate and quite reliable in keeping the video chat going. No drop calls or annoying lag times. It also has the best video quality, so tell your chatmate to have that photogenic smile ready. The only downside to this- its exclusively for Apple devices. None of that 3G support, WIFI only. Expects some pixelation if you're using an iPad and you're trying to chat up someone on the iPhone. And yeah, no group video chats. Bummer.

The Apple iPad

The Apple iPad popularity can be attributed to three factors:

Ease of use:
Based on a variety of user activity and scenarios such as reading ebooks, playing media, games, apps and using email and roaming the web.

Screen Display:
Superiority of display color, consistency even in viewing at odd angles, brightness and glare control.

Touch Response Capability:
Responsive Time and Clarity of Response of the touchscreen when moving and clicking objects.

The iOS 5

Apple's new operating system, iOS 5, is new, yet familiar. Aspects of it resemble features found on the Android, BlackBerry, and Windows operating systems. It lets you use the camera, preview e-mail, and perform other functions even when the phone is locked. Contact lists will integrate data from a variety of sources. A Game Center will show you what your friends' friends are doing and give recommendations based on their input.
