This amazing new device from Apple combines a mobile phone, a widescreen iPod with touch controls! The Apple iPhone also an Internet communication device with email, web browsing, maps, and internet searching, all packed into one small and lightweight handheld device.
The first thing you'll notice, as you look at its ultra-sleek glass and aluminium body is that Apple have given it a sum total of 4 buttons. 4. That's it. And this is where you see how revolutionary the Apple iPhone’s interface is. You do nearly everything via the touch screen, with various swiping, flicking and prodding motions of your fingers making the phone dance to your tune. And we have to confess, it's a fabulous way of doing things.
Once you've stopped playing with the groundbreaking interface (which you'll be doing for a while), you're going to find actually using the iPhone a pleasure. From calls to texts, music to the internet, everything works as smoothly as you'd expect. And with the Internet browser, the iPhone's accelerometer comes into its own. What's an accelerometer? Simple. It senses whether you're holding the phone upright or sideways. So, with one twist, your web browser goes from portrait view to landscape view. It's truly stunning to see in action, and one of the coolest features we've seen on any phone.
