The goodies keep piling up, people. The new iPhone 4 is better than all the ones that came before it. Yes, it has that amazing front-facing camera. Of course the internal gyroscope is yours now, making your iPhone the cutest little motion-sensor you’ll ever own. The games are outrageously good. But are there things about it that you don’t know? Are there surprise packages that you never thought you’d find in your iPhone? Let’s find out!

1. Did You Forget to Turn off Your iPhone?

If you’re one of those people who always forgets to switch off your phone at night, don’t worry. Open the Timer tab of the Clock App; configure the timer for the number of hours you’ll be awake and select “Sleep iPod” under the “When Timer Ends” field. No matter which application is open, Pandora or music, your iPhone will shut off.

Apple’s latest offering, the iPhone 4S is soon to arrive in South Africa. Yes, your PC can do almost everything that an iPhone can, but it’s not always with you, in your pocket. The applications (apps) on it are beautifully designed, offer ease of use and exciting ways to organise your life. Apple offers a choice of 500 000 different apps and since the App Store’s launch in 2008, 15 billion apps have been downloaded. So clearly I’m not the only one that likes Apple apps. Here’s what is cool about them:

Built in Apps

These apps mean you don’t have to pay for them; they’re already on the iPhone.

Do you hate having to go grocery shopping on the weekend? No one can really blame you; you work hard all week to earn money and then you have to endure crying babies, mile-long queues and slow-moving crowds at the shopping mall. Soon, your phone will save you from this fate.

 

Erica Naone reports that a new iPhone app has offered up a preview of the future personalised, self-service shopping experience. The app was created by Modiv Media and lets users scan items while they shop, displays personalised offers on-the-go and speeds up the checkout wait. Stop and Shop is one of the first companies to deploy the app, a version called Scan It!. This particular version is geared towards the 375 supermarkets that Stop and Shop operates in the United States and relies on loyalty card numbers. A user installs the app on their phone, loads in their loyalty card by taking a picture of it with the phone’s camera and then takes the phone along with them to the store.

Samsung’s clever new product could combine tablets with smart phones

Is it a smart phone? Is it a tablet? No it's a smartablet.

Think about the gadgets you own; cell phone, laptop, tablet, and camera. Anything else? With the amount of gizmos on the market more and more people end up with a whole range devices. You would have thought that by now one company would be smart enough to develop a device that could do it all in one go. Perhaps we’re closer to that than we think.

 

Jaymi Heimbuch reports on Team Treehugger that people don’t buy tablet devices instead of something; they just get added to the long list of gadgets we can’t live without. But electronic giant Samsung might change all that. Apparently it’s working on a tablet device that might make them a must-have gadget instead of one of convenience.

It’s almost like a movie series like The Fast and the Furious, except this sequel seems to be never-ending. Apple is set to release yet another mobile device; the iPhone 5. Since the first iPhone was introduced to the world in 2007 the mobile giant has successfully released an updated version every year and 2011 is no different. But what would make someone buy this version if the next updated version will probably be out next year? We check it out.

According to MSN, the iPhone 5 will incorporate the rumoured updated A5 processor that put the iPhone 4 and iPad ahead of other mobile phones. The processor allows power efficiency and is based on ARM processor architecture. This new version will feature a number of cores which will increase the mobile’s performance and battery life immensely.

Apple Forced To Eat Humble Pie?

Earlier this year, Apple passed Microsoft to become the biggest tech company in the world. It seemed the company could do no wrong. After all, who doesn’t own at least one Apple product? From iPods and iPads to Macs, Mac Books and iPhones, Apple owns every inch of the tech industry. The iPhone 4 was the most anticipated release of the year. People queued for hours to get their hands on the new wonder-phone. Approximately 1.7 million were sold in the first three days of its release. Apple was on top of the world. And then the complaints started rolling in.

A few complaints turned into a deluge and a deluge turned into civil litigation, as three particularly disgruntled customers sued Apple because their iPhone 4 antennae didn’t work as they should.
