POLL: Iowa City, What Say Ye about the IPhone 4S?
Apple unveiled its new phone today. Are you going to buy one?
The long anticipated IPhone 5 turned out to be the IPhone 4S today in an announcement from Apple. Our friends over on Engadget have details about the new phone, which supposedly boasts an improved camera, a faster processor, and other design improvements.
Apple has jammed a dual-core A5 CPU inside alongside a new dual-core GPU that supposedly boosts graphics performance by up to 7x. Up front is the same Retina display we've all come to know and love, and a glass back. That antenna around the sides (which caused many users so much trouble) has been revamped and can intelligently switch between two different sets of anntenae on the fly to avoid dropping calls based on how you hold it. Those antennas are connected to a dual-mode GSM and CDMA radio that will let Apple's handset roam the globe while enjoying either 14.4Mbps HSPA+ or EVDO.
But will you buy it?
