Amazon Kindle Fire Vs Google Nexus 7

Google, rumored to have designed the Nexus 7 tablet specifically to compete with the commercial successful Kindle Fire, being officially revealed by Google a few moments ago at the I/O conference, this newly launched Nexus 7 really surprised us with its super configuration. But how does the Nexus 7 tablet compare against what seems to be its direct competitor, the Amazon Kindle Fire. Does the Nexus 7 tablet have what it takes to become the best budget tablet ever created? Ok let’s just get this out of the way right now by comparing these two outstanding tablets!

OS

Google Nexus 7 runs on the newest version of Android 4.1 JellyBean. Jelly Bean's many tweaks are aimed at making the Android experience smoother and sleeker rather than at adding any standout new features .but what you really need to know is that the Nexus tablet is fully optimized for Google play, meaning magazines, movies and sometimes even web content are all perfectly displayed on the tablet. If you’re an Android fan, you’ll definitely want to get your hands on a tablet that brings you the full Android experience, and not the highly forked version of Android offered by Amazon on their Kindle Fire.

                                               

Processor

The Google Nexus 7 is packing along one snazzy and wickedly fast 1.3GHz quad-core NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor coupled with 1GB of RAM. Obviously, it’s far more impressive than the 1GHz dual-core TI OMAP4 processor with 512MB of RAM that’s stuffed inside of the Kindle Fire.

                                                

Display

The Google Nexus tablet and the Amazon Kindle Fire both showcase a 7-inch screen, although the differences between them are quite evident, even on paper. While both sport an in-plane switching (IPS) panel but differ when it comes to resolution, the Nexus 7 runs at a 1280×800 resolution while the Kindle Fire runs at 1024 x 600. The Nexus tablet is able to display 66% more pixels than the Kindle Fire.

Camera

The Nexus 7 will also feature a 1.2-megapixel front-facing camera, which should be useful for video chats, as well as Google's new map feature, "compass mode", which provides 360-degree images of your surroundings using the camera and gyroscope. The Kindle Fire does not have any camera.

Network

Both tablets will connect to 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi networks, but the Nexus 7 has the added benefit of built-in Bluetooth and NFC. That means it'll work with the vast selection of Bluetooth speakers and peripherals, while NFC could be used with Google Wallet or to easily share information between devices.

Multimedia function

Overall, there isn’t much of a difference between the two tablet’s music players – as we’re greeted with the usual set of items. However, we do like the cool 3D carousel that the Nexus 7 has to offer when browsing through its catalog. Paying attention to the output of their speakers, they’re nearly identical to one another, as they pump out similar tones that don’t crackle at the loudest setting. However, the Nexus 7 has access to various equalizer settings to enhance its quality.

                                                

In terms of video Playback, both tablets are able to smoothly play video that’s encoded in MPEG4 1920 x 1080 resolutions. Many of people would watch online movies on Kindle Fire directly by connecting network. As a matter of fact, you can download YouTube video to Kindle Fire with accelerated speed. By doing so you are enabled to watch YouTube video without internet connection in spare time. You can do this by taking advantage of a third part-Leawo Kindle Fire YouTube downloader, which will do you a favor to save YouTube video in Kindle Fire. From the looks of it all, Nevertheless, our eyes are particularly glued to the Nexus 7 display thanks mostly to its higher contrast.

Future upgrades

The Kindle Fire will still probably be easier to use and more intuitive for the average consumer. Keep in mind, the Kindle Fire is unlikely to see any major Android updates or overhauls, while the Nexus 7, being a flagship device, should see more timely updates for future versions of Android.

The Kindle Fire and the Google Nexus are direct competitors. And the Nexus 7 turns out to be significantly better in all departments. From a pure spec standpoint, the Nexus 7 is the superior tablet in nearly every way. Google did a perfect job in delivering a budget tablet. From where I’m standing, this is the first Android tablet that really counts!

The Multimedia Function of iPhone 4S

Equipped with a faster dual-core A5 chip, an 8MP camera with all-new optics supporting to shoots 1080p HD video as well as the new Sari, The Apple iPhone 4S remains one of the most popular smartphones on the market. It's the most amazing iPhone yet, even though it retains the exterior design of its predecessor, its hardware specifications and software performances have really been improved. But today we will ignore its high quality configuration and focus on its multimedia function.

Despite increasingly impressive competition, particularly from manufacturers like HTC and Samsung, which have recently released their latest flagship Android models. One of the strengths of the iPhone is multimedia. In this article I will look at why these features help to make the iPhone 4S one of the best multimedia devices out there.

                             

                                                                           

iTunes

iTunes is Apple’s multimedia download service, where users can browse and download a multitude of multimedia products of different formats. This includes millions of music tracks, films and TV series as well as podcasts etc. The iPhone 4S comes with a preinstalled iTunes app, where users can download music and films directly to the handset.

iPod

The iPhone 4S comes with an iPod function pre-installed, which seamlessly integrates with your music collection, whether it is tracks that you have transferred from your computer using iTunes, or music which has been downloaded using the service. It has the same user interface as an iPod touch, and comes with cover flow which displays your music using album art, which looks great and also serves the function of making it easy and intuitive to browse through your tracks and albums. Audio quality is pretty satisfactory.

AppStore

The iPhone 4S uses the AppStore, which is widely regarded as the best application download service out there.  the apps are better quality and that it offers more choice than competing services like Google Play and Windows Phone marketplace which offers a similar service for Android and Windows phone devices respectively. so whether you are looking for apps for work or play, there is sure to be something to suit your needs.

                                       

                                       

Video playback

3.5” IPS display may not be the super-sized one to make it easier for us to watch high-def videos on a significantly larger display on the iPhone, but In fact, videos play swimmingly with no pause or slowdown during its playback in iPhone 4S, plus, they’re filled with plenty of magnificent details to make the experience gratifying. So now taking the videos’s high quality and the smooth playback into consideration, iPhone 4s can be excellent. Video enjoyment on iPhone 4S will be great. For example, if you have stored lots of MKV or HD MKV files on your computer, to make them playable on iPhone 4S can enrich your digital life definitely. However, there is a hassle that you can not stream MKV to iPhone 4S by default. Then in this situation you must resort to a third part MKV to iPhone 4S Converter. After converting MKV to iPhone 4S recognizable video format, you can enjoy the movies leisurely.

Thanks the features outlined above, the iPhone 4S is arguably the most impressive multimedia smartphone out there. Although competing manufacturers are offering increasingly impressive smartphones, the leading position of iPhone 4S still remains unrivalled, for now at least.

Rumors about Apple’s New iPod Touch and iPod Nano

It seems to have been finalized that the next generation iPhone 5 and iPad mini will come one after another in September and October respectively. But the rumored news is far more than this, this fall should be an extraordinary timeframe for Apple, it is said from the leaked news that Apple also will seize the opportunity to release a brand new iPod Touch as well as Nano player to refresh its entire lineup of devices. And now it seems that there are more and more evidences to uncover the truth for us step by step.

                                                 

The first news is about the iPod Touch, GizChina unveiled a new iPod Touch photo which is said to be its protective shell, seen from the shape of the protective shell from iPod Touch, it may change the fourth-generation streamlined shell as well as the four corners, and tend to become more squarer. Plus the camera aperture will become very large, and may be equipped with flashlights just like iPhone. In addition, the left side of the device has reserved apertures for unknown purposes.

With regard to iPod Nano, a Japanese website-Macotakara claims that the next generation iPod Nano will adopt strip design with the Home key and camera, the biggest feature is that it will be able to support WIFI function, which can wirelessly download the purchased music through iTunes.

This website also claims that the upcoming small-size version of the iPad will indeed be named as "iPad mini", and possessing Retina display and smaller data interface design. The screen resolution can be up to 1024 × 768 pixels, and at the same time, its built-in A5X dual-core processor has 8GB capacity space which is big enough for you to store your favorite music, games and video files.

                                             

Additionally, the Cupertino-based company is expected to launch redesigned iPod Touch and iPod Nano media players in September as well, with significant hardware changes and performance boosts.

Last September, Apple did not deliver substantially modified iPod touch or iPod nano models, but that should change this fall. From now on, let’s just expect to encounter the miracle moment of time and wait for the coming of iPhone 5, iPad mini, new iPod Touch and iPod Nano!

New iPad’S Video Function

The New iPad is a tablet computer designed, developed and marketed by Apple Inc. it can be regarded as Apple’s third-generation iPad which adds a 9.7inches Retina display, the new Apple A5X chip with a quad-core graphics processor, a 5 megapixel camera, full HD 1080p video recording, voice dictation, 4G and Sari. It also ships with the world's most advanced mobile operating system-iOS 5.1, which serves primarily as a platform for audio-visual media, including electronic books, periodicals, films, music, computer games, presentations, and web contents.

From the above mentioned equipments, we can see that although the third-generation iPad remains the same on the outside as iPad2, it does bring a lot of improvements on the inside. And its overall performance has a great improvement. It will take a lot of time to describe the whole features of the New iPad, But currently I will focus on its video playback feature. When watching videos the iPad is at its most comfortable to use. The reason can be concluded from the below three aspects.

                                           

First of all, it has a new 9.7inches Retina screen with resolution of 2048x1536 pixels, delivering an amazing tablet pixel density of 264 ppi. The screen is crisp and bright, though direct sunlight hampers viewing and with white backgrounds you can see the vivid picture in a widescreen comfortably.

Another major improvement has to do with the processor of the device, which is now the so-called A5X-still a dual-core processor, but with a new quad-core GPU for outstanding graphics performance. It will make the video playback fast and fluid.

The camera has also been given a boost and is now much more capable in terms of both photo and video taking. The New iPad features a 5-megapixel camera with advanced optics which enables you to shoot stunning 1080p HD video.

The New iPad with Wi-Fi + Cellular connects to fast data networks around the world, up to 4G LTE so that wherever you go, you can download videos, music and e-mail quickly.

                                                   

Lying in bed watching video or surfing the web is much more natural than using a laptop. Streaming video quality is quite good. It should be pointed out that a widescreen iPad would be very fantastic when playing your favorite videos on it. Here you may wonder if the New iPad can supports all popular videos among the world, of course not, only a few video formats like H.264, MPEG-4 will be supported. So you may ask how you can play your collected videos such as AVI on this big screen. Now do not worry, I will let you know how to do it.

I know AVI is a popular video format. It comes with good video quality with relative small size and is a commonly used file container. You may have many AVI files stored on your computer. Since New iPad doesn't support AVI video format, so you have to convert AVI videos to New iPad format videos before transferring them to iPad.

                                                                                                    

That is to say, if you want to play AVI on New iPad HD, you need to find out an AVI to New iPad Converter which is capable of converting AVI to New iPad formats mentioned above. You can also find other kinds of video converters online if you want to convert WMV, FLV, RM, MOV, Xvid etc to this New iPod. It is all up to your choice and based on your video collection.

iPad Mini Will be Launched on October

Back in 2010, former Apple CEO Steve Jobs said that smaller screened tablets were not sufficient to create great tablet apps and would be "dead on arrival", so rumors suggesting a new iPad mini is in the works reveals a potentially new direction for the firm in its post-Jobs era.

As the Amazon Kindle Fire steals the budget tablet show and with more small, cheap tablets coming all the time, such as the Google Nexus 7, Apple may well want to launch its own mini tablet-iPad Mini to complete its rivals and grab the potential Tablet market.

                                               

It is reported that iPad Mini will have7.85 inches Retina display and adopt A5X dual-core processor. Seeing from the recent news, the iPad Mini will be released later after iPhone 5, while iPhone 5 will be released on September 21. The news indicates that the Apple may also introduce a new iPod player simultaneously with iPad Mini’release.

The latest news claimed that Apple has officially named this small tablet as iPad Mini, when it releases, the official name of this product is iPad Mini, such kind of a name is in line with everyone’s expectation. After all, Apple fans have been accustomed to calling this name. In contrast, the name of the New iPad makes people very uncomfortable when the third-generation iPad hit the market, many people still like to call it iPad 3 instead of New iPad.

                                                         

The news also unveiled that the new iPod Nano will provide support for Wi-Fi technology, and supports cloud iTunes service. In addition the new iPod Touch will also have the iSight camera, which is said to offer amplifications for NFC function. Seeing from the entire second half of the year, Apple’s several products will be released and sold which will benefit Apple stock. The analysis say that Apple's stock price will be expected to shot up to $ 800 before the end of this year, thus will also consolidate the world 's highest market value status it already has.

According to analyst Ben A. Reitzes, the iPad Mini would not be a threat to Apple's current domination with the New iPad, and is likely to be a favourite among gamers as well as educational the iPad Mini may herald a new era for those who long for an Apple device, but simply can't part with an arm and a leg to buy one.

iPhone 5 is Set to Launch on Sept 21

A few days ago, there were related sources claiming that Apple would announce the release date of iPhone 5 and there is no doubt that its debut will be scheduled on Sept 12. In addition to the Apple company, Apple’s competitors such as Nokia , Motorola will all choose to release its new products before the 12th of next month. We’re fairly certain that the real iPhone 5 will roll out of Apple's gates and that the device should be a bigger leap forward than the 4S was.

                                                      

According to the news from TechCrunch, AT & T internal staffs have confirmed that they have already received notice from Apple that the new generation iPhone will be launched on September 21. Right now the company has begun the special training work and canceled all employees’ vacation activities.

At the same time, Verizon employees also claimed that they had began the new iPhone training work due to the fact that it will be available for sale on September 21.

Last Friday, LG insiders have confirmed that the 4-inch screen applied on the new iPhone has already been produced massively. Compared to its predecessors, the visual area will be enlarged by 30% and the In-Cell Panel (embedded panel) technology will also be adopted, that is to embed the touch sensor directly into the liquid crystal display.

                                             

Seeing from the current rumors, the new iPhone will be equipped with a 4-inch touch screen with a high resolution of 1136×640 pixels, powered by A5X dual-core processor and replaced the 9-pin Dock connector, all in all its body will be slimmer. Appearance is fabulous since it uses a dual-core metal back cover. It supported LTE 4G network will undoubtedly add more colors to the new iPhone.

We need to know that the iPad mini will strike a pose on the stage along with the new iPhone in the conference on Sept. 12. But iPad mini’s release date is scheduled on early October.

Basic Features of Amazon Kindle Fire

Carries a 7-inch multi-touch display with IPS technology and runs a forked version of Google's Android operating system. This Amazon Kindle Fire released last year has really drawn lots of attention among its users. Though it lacks the tech specs found on more-expensive Apple and Android tablets, the $199 Kindle Fire is an outstanding entertainment device which values that price.

Screen:

The Kindle Fire (left) uses a 7-inch screen that is roughly half the area of the Apple iPad 2. You may prefer the iPad's larger screen for Web browsing, reading magazines, and watching videos, but such a cost-effective tablet PC is also hard to find.

                                                 

Interface:

The Amazon Kindle Fire is an Android 2.3 Gingerbread based tablet but it is not a “with Google” device, so it doesn't feature Google apps like Gmail, Calendar, Contacts and most importantly – Android Market. This means that at its core, it is Android, but what the user really has is an “Amazon OS”, relying on the Amazon Appstore and ecosystem.

Multimedia:

The Kindle Fire handles MP3, AAC, and OGG music, including album art. For video, it plays H.264 and MPEG4 only, at resolutions up to 1080p. There's no Bluetooth stereo support, HDMI out, or way to connect the Kindle to a TV. But to enjoy movies you can also rent, buy or download movies or TV shows, or play Amazon Prime's subscription streaming video service. Due to its dual processor and stable wi-fi connection you can easily watch online videos such as YouTube movies on Kindle Fire. But can you always guarantee the smooth playback and no blurry picture? If you are out for travelling can you make sure that? As a matter of fact, you can download YouTube video for Kindle Fire in accelerated speed with the help of kindle fire YouTube downloader. By doing so you are enabled to watch YouTube video without internet connection in spare time. Just search how to download youtube video in kindle fire online for more details.

                                                           

Processor:

The Kindle Fire packs a dual-core, 1GHz TI OMAP4 processor and runs a very highly customized version of Android 2.3.4 (Gingerbread).

                               

Internet and Connectivity:

The Webkit-based Silk browser does some magic in the cloud, where it processes things to offer a better rendering performance. However, it is far from being the smoothest thing we’ve seen. Not surprisingly, it’s able to load complex web sites like ours in around 30 seconds–even with YouTube Flash content and all. As it stands, the only connectivity item featured on the tablet is 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi–and nothing more, so that means you won’t find GPS, Bluetooth, or any 3G cellular connection with it.

Price：

Amazon Kindle Fire faces with its prominent competitor Apple iPad in the market, both are specially designed tablet, but The Amazon Kindle Fire $199.00 at Amazon puts the Apple iPad $555.00 at Amazon Marketplace on notice. In general, Kindle Fire is cheaper!

                                                         

When Amazon announced the Kindle Fire and its price point, excitement was at fever pitch, but until now this masterpiece still has its solid users and customers. with a simple, clear interface and powerful functions, the Kindle Fire is the first small tablet that average users can pick up and immediately use.

When HTC One S Meets Apple iPhone 4S, Which One Is the Winner?

 As the best Android smartphone designed and manufactured by HTC, HTC One S came into market this year with a big success. It is a decent smartphone though it may not be the smartest one among all the smartphones available on the market. The current top-selling phone-iPhone 4S which launched last year on the market will become a big rival to HTC One S. of course, as iPhone’s fifth generation touchscreen-based smartphone developed by Apple Inc, the top class Apple iPhone 4S will always be people’s dream phone.

Now let us compare the new phone HTC One S with Apple iPhone 4S.

1. Design:

The displays on both phones are pretty different in both size and tech. We have the 3.5 inches Retina Display on the iPhone 4S, with its IPS-LCD technology and 640x960 resolution, meaning 326ppi pixel density, good colors, wide viewing angles, and high brightness.

As for HTC One S, The 4.3” AMOLED display on it sports 540x960 pixels of resolution, results in lower pixel density than iPhone 4S. But AMOLED has other advantages, like wider viewing angles and deep blacks, hence extremely high contrast ratio. This comes in handy when people watch HD video on iPhone 4S. The screen size at 4.3 inches is much closer to the iPhone 4S’s 3.5-inches which makes it comparable with iPhone 4S.

                                                                                               

3. Operating System:

HTC One S has Ice Cream Sandwich v4.0 OS. On the other hand, iPhone 4S has a brilliant iOS , The present version is iOS 5 and is upgradable to iOS 5.1.

5. Camera:

Both handsets film fluid 1080p video with 30 fps and good amount of contrast and detail, with the HTC One S again producing slightly oversaturated colors than the footage from the iPhone 4S.

Both the smartphones have 8MP cameras in the rear, with no limitation to the extra features like LED Flash, geo tagging and much more. Secondary camera in Apple is VGA, whereas that in HTC is 1.3 MP shooter.

6. Video playback.

The iPhone 4S lives up to its video playback, though it plays H.264/MPEG-4 files up to 1080p with no problems, whereas you'd have to convert video to iPhone 4S compatible video formats, or hit the App Store for a 3rd party player. But purchasing for a third part iPhone 4S Video Converter to help convert video to iPhone 4S may be more convenient for users to enjoy the movies on the go. The larger screen, higher contrast and more vivid colors also make for a better video playback experience on the HTC One S.

                                                        

7. Battery life.

The battery life of iPhone 4S can be 14 hours which will guarantee a long talk time, as for HTC One S, the battery life is 9.7 hours, obviously iPhone 4S is slightly better. The One S has a reasonably high capacity battery of 1,650 mAh, but the iPhone 4S is average which reaches 1,420 mAh.

The price of One S is $710, while that of the IPhone 4S is around $775. It is hard to say which one is more suitable for customers due to the reason that each one has its own distinctive features. It is just up to your preference for an IOS smartphone or Andriod Smartphone.

The Samsung Galaxy S wows you and is extremely thin at just 0.39 inches (9.9 mm), compared to the Nokia N8's 0.51 inches (12.9 mm).The Nokia N8 is crafted from a single sheet of anodized aluminum, giving it a certain amount of heft, while the Samsung Galaxy S is made from plastic, making it lightweight, lighter and less rigid thаn metal.

2. Display

The Samsung Galaxy S sports a 480x800 pixel Super AMOLED display, while the Nokia N8 phones in with a regular AMOLED display with a 360x640 pixel resolution. Thanks to the Super AMOLED tech, the Galaxy S delivers incredibly high-contrast ratio, great viewing angles and better visibility in direct sunlight. Still, Nokia has done a great job, and the display is decent outside.

                                    

3. Performance:

As far as performance goes, the N8’s core uses a 680MHz ARM 11 chip, while the Galaxy S uses a ARM Cortex A8 processor, rated at 1GHz. The Nokia N8 uses Symbian, while the Galaxy S runs Android 2.1. The major disadvantage for the Nokia N8 and all Symbian phones is the uncertainty of Symbian’s future. Whereas Google’s Android is gobbling up market share like a pack of hungry, hippos, Symbian is on a steep decline.

4. Navigation and User Interface:

Both of these mobile operating systems are excellent smartphone platforms, with mobile web browsing, pinch to zoom, navigation and maps, excellent keyboards and multitasking. However, Android tends to do this with a little bit more finesse and eye candy. Nokia’s Symbian platform is functional, but Android is just more touch-friendly and easy to use.

5. Camera:

First up, the N8’s 12.0 Megapixel camera features with Carl Zeiss optics, a Xenon flash, autofocus, geo-tagging, face/smile detection, plus 720p HD video capture and editing. It has a max resolution of 4290 x 2800 pixels. For video calls, there’s also a second, front-mounted camera.

Unfortunately for the Galaxy S, it boasts a poorer specification, namely a 5.0 Megapixel camera with autofocus, geo-tagging, touch to focus functionality, face and smile detection and HD video recording. No LED flash either, Xenon or otherwise. The maximum resolution of the camera is 2592 x 1944 pixels.

                                                 

6. Video Playback:

Speaking of video playback, both handsets support a large number of formats, including DivX/Xvid, and the chipsets are powerful enough to play HD resolutions without notable issues. The big, vivid screen of the Samsung Galaxy S definitely has the upper hand for watching videos on the go. You may not want to waste the large number of online videos since you have this powerful Samsung Galaxy S. As the world’s most famous website, it is not surprised that YouTube comes to your first choice to watch videos. But as a portable device, it still has the limitation of video and audio formats. For people who want to enjoy online videos on it, but when you are out for a journey, internet connectivity will be a barrier for you to enjoy online videos. Here I suggest a third party software-YouTube Downloader, which is fit for users to accelerate and download YouTube to Samsung Galaxy S as well as Nokia N8 and watch YouTube videos on the go.

7.Battery life:

Juiced up to full capacity, Nokia claims 12.0 hours of talktime for the N8, compared to 6.55 hours for the Galaxy S. Standby times are 390 hours and 576 hours respectively. The Galaxy S loses this one.

Nokia and Samsung are two of the top handset manufacturers worldwide. So now that we've compared the two companies' flagship smartphones, it seems like both offerings are worth your while. Again, it is up to you to decide which features you need the most, but either way you'll end up owning one helluva smarphone.

Review on New iPhone5 Secrets

The specification of new iPhone has been exposed for six months. According to the media reports, multiple credible spare parts have made new iPhone increasingly true. To some extent some little secrets of the new iPhone are gradually revealed.

So far, after several rounds of the new iPhone exposure, the common point is that the exposure of the new iPhone appearance, spare parts and shell structure are basically the same, which further increases the reliability of the exposure information. These pictures, the videos have already told us a lot of the secrets of the new iPhone, this may be the new design that next generation iPhone will actually use.

                                                        

1, there are at least two colors, black and white (or more).

From several exposed photos of the new iPhone components, the next generation iPhone will have two color versions-black and white versions. They are also the colors that iPhone 4/4S designed now, and Apple iPad also adopt such two-color configuration.

Due to the back glass craft of IPhone 4, when Apple first brought out its white version IPhone 4 smartphone, it is almost a year later than the black version. From theleaked information, the new iPhone much more likely adopts aluminum back cover material, thus more easily to realize black and white colors collocation.

According to the source information claimed from iFixyouri, the white and black versions are just among the models that this year at least will launch, there are two other color versions will be introduced too.

                                                               

2, the screen size becomes larger.

About Apple’s next generation iPhone screen, a consensus is - the screen will become bigger and bigger. However, the specific increase range has been inconclusive.

According to the components comparison, the width of the the new phone will not increase, which is still 1.9632 inches (about 5 cm), but the height will be increased to 3.484 inches. The diagonal length is 3.999 inches, which means four inches screen size.

3, vice camera moved between camera and flashlight (which can remove the noise in the video recording, similar to the iPod Touch 4 design)

In the leaked pictures on July 29, we generally see the front panel structure. The photograph has clearly indicated that the new iPhone will move the front camera (which Apple calls Facetime camera) to the top of the handset, shifting from body left to the body center position.

                                                                          

Four, unibody design

Since 2008 Apple is likely to adopt unibody alloy metal design, which can not only make the phone look more attractive, but also better to integrate circuits and generate cooling effect.

Seeing from the photos, the back shell is a whole piece of metal parts, which not only makes the body more robust, and the change of the complex glass panel like iPhone 4/4S can reduce the cost.

Five, speaker upgrade

This is also a very intuitive change-the new iPhone parts indicate that the space and the sound hole of the new phone’ bottom speaker have significantly increased with the decrease of the data interface.

In the past, the two symmetrical metal covers at the bottom of the iPhone 4 and 4S seems to be dual-channel speakers. In fact, the left is the microphone and the right is the one mono speaker. We can see from the exposed map that the right space is significantly wider than the left, so the new phone will increase the right speaker unit even do not adopt dual-channel speakers to get better speaker sound effects.
