The exterior design of the iPhone 3GS is not very different from that of the older models. Equipped with the most responsive and powerful display you can forget about using a stylus pen. The retail package of the phone is composed by a minimal list of accessories. There you will find a head phone set, a USB cable and a charger. As we said, in terms of design, the iPhone 3GS is similar with that of the older models. It has the same classic Apple design with a case made of high-quality materials which presents rounded edges and corners.
The dimensions are also similar. The new Apple iPhone 3GS measures 115.5 x 62.1 x 12.3 mm in dimensions and 135 grams in weight. The front side of the phone is occupied, of course, by a huge 3.5 inch touch screen and a unique Menu button placed below it. On the left side of the phone you will find a volume rocker and a Silent key while on the right side is clear. On the top part you will notice a 3.5 mm audio jack, a Power On/off button and the SIM card slot. The USB port and the speaker are placed on the bottom part. The back side presents the same glossy cover with the Apple logo on it.
Because we are used to getting only high-end features from an iPhone, the 3GS model don’t seem to be the exception. The display of the phone is one of the most attractive features. Being a 3.5 inch touch screen one, it comes with a 320 x 480 pixels and support for 16 million colors. Being very responsive and offering brilliant quality images, it is the best display ever used on a mobile phone. The camera has only a 3.2 Megapixel sensor but even if it seems to be mediocre for this top-rated smartphone, it offers high-quality photos with a high-level of details. If you are interested about the internal memory, this smartphone is available in two models: one with 16 GB and other with 32 GB. For connectivity, the iPhone 3GS comes with all new top-rated features. It offers Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, USB, GPS with A-GPS support and TV-out plus support for GSM, GPRS, EDGE 3G and HSDPA 7.2 Mbps.
But this smartphone attracts customers not only with its powerful features. It also is an excellent multimedia handset. With this cell phone you can enjoy many multimedia applications in a special way thanks to the many sensors like proximity sensor, accelerometer sensor, digital compass and motion-based. The battery of the iPhone 3GS is a Li-Ion one which manages to keep the phone on for 5 hours of conversations, 300 hours in standby mode or 30 hours of music play. Anyway, the most disappointing aspect of this smartphone can be the price. If you want one, you need to pay $310 to get it.
