  iPhone 4

Finally the much awaited smartphone of the year is here. Although we all knew what it would look like, thanks to several leaks before the phone was announced, which kind of dampened the excitement of a new product announcement. Once again the new iPhone has changed the way we look at phones.

The original iPhone had already set the bar very high when it was launched and it continues to with every subsequent launch. However, the new iPhone 4 goes well beyond what the previous iPhones did, with a slew of amazing new features, many of which have never been seen on any mobile device yet. Let's go through the features that the new iPhone 4 brings to the table.

   

Nokia N8

substitute for apple for those who want more freedom at the cost of originality.

1]nokia N8
Feature-wise the N8 is as loaded asthe others. An AMOLED capacitive screen that supports multi-touch will display Nokia's redesigned Symbian 3 OS. The star feature of the N8 is its 12 megapixel Carl Zeiss branded camera.

For all those people who are put off by that tiny LED light on many phones, the N8 has a proper Xenon flash - delivering the same blinding strobe you'd get from a digital camera. It also does HD (720p) video recording, just like the iPhone 4.

Now many of these modern phones do 720p, but other than a great view on the screen, wouldn't it be nice to directly hook the phone up to your LCD HDTV? Guess what, the N8 has TV-out support via HDMI and composite - pretty awesome, we say!

The iPhone 4 comes in two colors; black and white. The N8 has a wider variety; including Dark Grey, Silver White, Green, Blue and Orange. Nokia's quoted 370 Euro (approx. Rs. 22,000) pricing for the N8 is very reasonable for a phone that packs in so much.

2]Samsung Galaxy S i9000

Leave it to Samsung to create some of the most feature-crammed phones that ever existed - the Omnia HD being a prime example. While the Omnia HD was great, its Symbian Series 60 OS isn't up to speed with today's Android OS.

Move over Symbian, the Samsung Galaxy S i9000 has set Android 2.1 in its heart. It sports a large 4-inch "Super AMOLED" screen, which Samsung claims to have 20 percent more brightness, 20 percent less power consumption and more importantly 80 percent less sunlight reflection.

It has 8/16GB internal storage, with a microSD slot for further expansion. And you're going to need a lot of memory on this one, since not only does it playback standard def DivX/XviD videos, it also plays back 720p videos directly.

So all those movies on your PC can directly be viewed on the phone, no down-scaling/conversion needed. Try pulling that off, iPhone! The 5 megapixel sensor as expected shoots 720p videos too. 
  
3]Google Nexus One/HTC Desire

 

These two are very similar phones, and both are manufactured by HTC. It's just that the Nexus One is a "Google-powered" phone, while the Desire has HTC's interface customizations over the same Android OS. Secondly, the Nexus One has a BlackBerry-esque trackball, while the Desire has an optical trackpad.

So how do these phones compare to the iPhone 4? Both have a slightly larger capacitive AMOLED screen (AMOLED delivers vibrant color reproduction). Its resolution is not as awesomely crisp as the iPhone 4's, but is fairly high at 800 x 480 pixels. The Nexus One can already be updated to Android 2.2 (a.k.a Froyo), which is Google's latest version of their mobile OS.

It enables some cool new features like Internet sharing over Wi-Fi and better support for Adobe Flash, along with faster performance. Android has also become, in our opinion, very close in terms of usability to the iPhone OS, give or take a few things from both parties. 

Both have a microSD card slot, which has scope for a lot more memory storage than the iPhone 4's 16 or 32GB fixed space; depending on how many cards you can buy. You can transfer files to other Bluetooth devices, something that even the newest iPhone doesn't allow you.

Both feature a 5 megapixel camera with an LED flash. It can't shoot HD (1280 x 720) videos like the iPhone 4, but rather shoots at DVD resolution (720 x 480), which isn't so bad.

The Nexus One is sold in Indian grey markets for about Rs. 30,000. We hear that the Desire should be officially available here by the end of the month.

4]HTC EVO 4G
The EVO 4G is a CDMA phone with support for WiMAX. WiMAX is that next generation tech that's also referred to as 4G for the sake of simplicity. It's one of the 4G technology, the other one being LTE. Enough with technicality, let's talk about what it can do for you.

In the US, where its sold by CDMA-based carrier Sprint, they say it can hit up to 10 Mbps. That's enough to let you stream HD videos on the phone, without aimlessly staring at the wall/window/whatever for a few minutes, waiting for it to buffer.

The screen is a visual treat at a humongous 4.3 inches. A Qualcomm 1 GHz processor takes care of the number crunching. An 8 megapixel camera lies at the back, and a 1.3 megapixel camera at the front - which is better than most phones that have a 0.3 megapixel front cam. 

So, if you live in the US and feel that 3G speeds aren't fast enough for you, take a look at the EVO 4G. The rest of the world, go back to staring at your HSDPA-ready phone.
