Yet, without proper maintenance and care, it is inevitable that your iPhone 5 will be damaged before you know it.

Well, this is to be expected and especially if you carry your gadget in the pocket alongside your keys and change.

5 Tips To Keep Your iPhone 5 in Excellent Condition

1. Get it Protected

The first thing you need to do is ensure that your iPhone 5 is well protected. You can use protectors for the rear and front of the phone. These are essential for ensuring that it remains scratch free, and it will also ensure the gadget is protected from moisture, dirt, water droplets and sprays. The top option you should consider in this case is Invisible Shield. The best ones tend to be military grade, thin protective film and ultra tough, thus sticking to the screen of the iPhone 5 and warding off scuffs, scratches and fingerprints.

Apart from these screen protectors, you will also need to invest in a case. Whether it is designed from rubber, leather or any other type of material, it will ensure that your iPhone gadget is protected from impact in case it hits something that is hard or falls in the floor. Select a case that also comes with a cove for the front in order to ensure that when it touches down, it does not come into contact with the surface.

Review of The Apple iPhone 4S: Features and Characteristics – Ever since I was young, I have always been fascinated by technology. Moreover, it does not get any better than what is featured by all the models of the iPhone manufactured by Apple.

Sincerely speaking, I was not a fan of Apple as an electronic manufacturing company but ever since the release of their first iPhone, I have transformed into one of their greatest fans and followers. In fact, ever since the release of the first iPhone I have constantly changed each time a new model is released. Talking about changing, I am now preparing me for latest release of the iPhone 4, the iPhone 4S.

A Detailed Review of The Apple iPhone 4S: Features and Characteristics

Thinnest and Sleekest Apple iPhone 4S

Though many people have stated their dissatisfaction at Apple about the fact that the iPhone 4S has not made any significant changes to the design of the original iPhone 4, I am for a different opinion. This model is still the thinnest and sleekest of all the iPhone smartphones family and that in itself means I am still at the peak of Smartphone technology. In fact, those who understand the concepts that are used during development of modern day smartphones will attest to the fact that having a consistent design is very key.

New Features in the Apple iPhone 4S

When I talk about preserving the features of the iPhone 4 you may get me wrong and think the Apple iPhone 4S is similar to its predecessor in many aspects. However, I think its good I also highlight some of the features that Apple have added to their latest iPhone 4S model. Well, I most definitely will start by analyzing a feature that is making its debut in the iPhone series. This is the Siri Assistant. This is a kind of intelligent program that offers users of the Apple iPhone 4S with crucial assistance on how to operate and use the Smartphone. The Siri Assistant is able to understand normal human language and do exactly as asked. This is where my anticipation for the phone certainly begins.

Additional Characteristics of the Apple iPhone 4S

Talking about enhancements without mentioning the improvement of the camera would be overlooking a new milestone in camera technology. Apple has stated that the IR enhanced 8-megapixel camera is so far the best. Though this may just be another of the cunning marketing strategies that different Smartphone manufacturers employ to attract customers, I certainly applaud Apple for making such a significant upgrade for the iPhone 4S. The iPhone 4 had a 5-megapixel camera and springing all the way to 8 megapixels is an achievement for Apple. Though many people are arguing that there is no need to get the Apple iPhone 4S if you have the original iPhone 4 I am begging to defer not just by words, but by actions too.

The price of both, the white and black models, will be the same. The iPhone 4S with two year contracts will cost you: 16GB – $199, 32GB – $299, 64GB – $399

If you opt to buy the Apple iPhone 4S without a contract and/or unlocked, you will be looking to acquire it at the following prices: 16 GB – $649, 32 GB – $749, 64 GB – $849

Apple iPhone 4 Review: Features and Specifications

no thumb

Apple’s latest iPhone is the iPhone 4. This sophisticated device provides excellent communication and entertainment facilities.

Features include, among others, Wi-Fi internet, Apps store, iTunes, navigation with GPS and MAPS support. Music lovers will appreciate the included iPod features.

The striking design makes even some of the of the newer competition look dated. Front and back are glass, with steel edging circling the phone.

Apple iPhone 4 Review Features and Specifications
The flat back prevents that “quivering” many phones are subject to when placed on a table.o iPhone 4 certainly feels solid and should survive the odd fall.

The glass, though covered with oil-resistant veneer, does tend to draw smears and the promised scratch-resistance will have to prove itself in pockets full of keys and coins. The new Retina Display, so called because it exceeds the number of pixels a human retina is able to process, features a resolution of 960 x 640 pixels – four times as many as previous iPhones.

Combined with the IPS display (as used on the iPad), featuring a contrast ratio of a massive 800:1, this provides a stunningly clear display, finished off nicely with TFT and AMOLED, as used on many Android phones.

iPhone 4 uses the same ambient light sensor, proximity sensor and accelerometer as previous versions, with no functionality changes. Most other outer elements – such as the home button, headset jack, power button, speaker, microphone and 30 pin connector – remain pretty much unchanged from the iPhone 3GS. Unfortunately this means the battery still can’t be removed.

Other design changes include a front VGA camera with LED flash and a noise cancellation microphone. The split volume button is easier to work than the previous rocker and the mute button above has also been improved.

One major change is that the SIM card slot is now at the right of the iPhone and the format has been changed to MicroSIM, resembling the iPad. It is therefore no longer possible to use a regular pattern SIM in this phone. Last, but not least, the iPhone 4 16GB is also available in white, and the 32GB version offers more storage space.
