The 4th generation of Apple iPhone has an all new look, new feel and plenty of new skill. We already caught a glimpse of the device but there's much more: a 1GHz chip, two cameras, HD video and of course the Retina display – the highest-res screen.
Surely there are still enough blank spots on the feature list but that's Apple and its iPhone. Compromises are being made in every phone out there anyway. But the simple fact is Number 4 is the best iPhone to-date. Let's see how good that is.
