Everyone’s seen an iPhone, and nearly all folks want one, but can you discover the difference relating an iPhone 3G and an iPhone 3GS? The answer is most certainly no; they look identical to each other and are no out of the ordinary to the naked eye. After you’ve used an iPhone 3GS, however, you’ll realize just how distinct it is in this evaluation.

The 3GS has been here awhile since its release. Many thought it was a low key upgrade from the iPhone 3G.

So what can be added to our earlier review of the iPhone 3G? Well here’s the vital enhancements that we’ve happen to appreciate in using the iPhone 3GS, especially if you immediately go back to using an iPhone 3G – these differences are then instantly obvious!

Performance enhancements

I’m not talking about the user interface or any added applications – everything that runs on the iPhone 3GS can run on the iPhone 3G, but the 3GS is significantly quicker. I was skeptical when Apple determined to concentrate on quickness considerably than introduce new features to the previous iPhone, and without using it myself I’d never have paid the furtherer money for a more powerful prototype over the previous one.

While looking at the specs, the CPU in the 3GS is clocked at 600MHz, compared to 400MHz on the preceding generation. As well as this, you’ll be getting 256MB RAM compared to 128MB in the 3G. When you’re using the 3GS it feels a great deal more responsive, and the speed at which applications load (especially more intensive ones such as Sims 3) is staggeringly faster compared to what you’d get on the older generation.

Battery life

A surprising feature of the 3GS is increased battery life, despite a superior clock speed in the device. Battery life is constantly a matter in smartphones, with most lasting no more than a few hours of intensive use, but the normal user will be able to get a full days charge with the new enhancements to battery life.

Camera

In addition to the faster speed and longer battery life, now you've got another reason to look at the 3GS over the 3G iPhone. The camera in the iPhone has always been pretty shocking, as with many other phones in the market. I could never use the iPhone’s camera as my most important point-and-shoot, but you’ll notice a 3MP camera in the 3GS, which also boasts video recording and auto focusing for when taking still shots.

You’ll be surprised how much this will multiply the quality of your shots over prior generations, especially while used with the new auto exposure and auto white-balance features. Even with these improvements, I couldn’t use the 3GS as my main camera – Apple has still got a lot of work to do before that’s viable, but it’s a definite move in the desirable direction.

When it comes to the quality of your video recordings, you’ll be impressed with the quality for a cell phone device, although it simply can’t compete with committed recorders. Still, it’s a good item to own, and you can tap the screen when recording to focus your videos. After capturing video, you can upload your shots directly to YouTube with the help of a nice characteristic from Quick Time X on Snow Leopard, which allows you to quickly trim your video, allowing you to edit out unwanted sections.
