When the iPod came out of the market, do you know what’s the biggest wish of its users? Well, they hoped that they could also make calls from the iPods so they don’t need to bring their mobile phones anymore. And guess what? That is now possible!
With the iPhone hitting the market, the two most important mobile devices that this generation can’t do without is combined in one cool package. The iPhone is a fully functional mobile phone that allows you to make a call by just tapping either the name or the number listed in the address book. It is a touch screen device so there’s really no need for keys and buttons. You can even listen to your voicemails with it. It is also compatible to loads of ring tone, which you can easily download.
But more than a phone, this device is still an iPod in all its shape and form. Meaning, you can definitely enjoy your favorite music and videos with it. Just fill it up with newest tunes from the iTunes Store. And you should be able to enjoy good music while you’re on the go. You can also play videos with it. It can also store your most treasured photos. You can make a collage out of your pictures and use it as your screensaver. The iPhone never runs out of surprises.
But that’s not all your iPhone can do. You can also surf the internet with it. It comes with Safari, Macintosh’s most reliable internet browser. So every time you feel like checking your mail, all you have to do is to find a Wi-Fi signal and connect. You should be able to surf the internet within minutes! Aside from regular internet surfing, the iPhone support widgets and can play videos from the popular video sharing site such as the YouTube.
But do you know that the iPhone is equipped with interactive maps as well? This one comes handy if you’re on an unfamiliar place and would desperately want to know where the best hotel or diner in the area is. All you have to do is to go to click on the map icon, type the place you’re in, and then search for that spot you’re looking for. You can even call the restaurant or the hotel’s reception area right there.
With the iPhone being a full touch screen device, there are no buttons on the interface, just a wide 3.5-inch screen. And it is equipped with an accelerometer, which automatically switches the view from portrait to landscape whenever you turn the iPod vertically or horizontally. With that much viewing screen, you can definitely watch your favorite TV shows and even movies conveniently.
The iPhone uses the OS X operating system. Right now, that is the most reliable and most stable operating system for mobile devices. It is also equipped with an address book and a calendar for keeping track of your appointments. The iPhone is built for multi-tasking. That means you can surf several pages at a time, while waiting for your files to download in the background.
So if you’re still carrying a music player on your hand and your mobile phone on the other, don’t you think it’s the time to make the switch?
