MERGED - iPhone

Re: MERGED - IPhone 4

I just found out that the shorted of the high end smart phone (iPhone, EVO, and Incredible) is due to conflict minerals in Congo. I must handed to Steve Jobs for slowing down production of the iPhone to insured that the phone does not contain any conflict mineral. I always thought he was evil cac.

ahh for the screens??
 
Re: MERGED - IPhone 4

Only when i'm holding the phone. If i have it on my desk its fine. When i'm out and about i have to use the EVO because when i hold it the speeds suffer. They really need to work this shit out.

I'm not talking about the problem with holding the phone. I'm asking if you are having slow data speeds? Can u do a 3G speed test and see what you are getting?

The substance for sale wasn't cocaine or top-grade opium. It was an ore called Columbite-tantalite - coltan for short - one of the world's most sought-after materials. Refine coltan and you get a highly heat-resistant metal powder called tantalum. It sells for $100 a pound, and it's becoming increasingly vital to modern life. For the high-tech industry, tantalum is magic dust, a key component in everything from mobile phones made by Nokia (NOK) and Ericsson and computer chips from Intel (INTC) to Sony (SNE) stereos and VCRs.

Read up. Very interesting article.

How Apple's Retina Display Fares in Contrast, Brightness, Depth, and Accuracy

iphone4.png


According to a test ran by Dr. Raymond Soneira of DisplayMate Technologies, the Retina Display of the iPhone 4 is said to be among the best on the market today. While Apple was touting pixel count--Steve Jobs mentioned that the iPhone 4 has a pixel density of 326 ppi, similar to that of text printed on a laser printer--Soneira tested for other factors, including contrast, brightness, color depth, and the accuracy of color production on the screen.

According to Soneira, the iPhone 4 has the brightest display compared to the Droid X, Droid Incredible with the AMOLED display, and the EVO 4G. The iPhone 4 came in at 536 cd/m², which is twice that of the AMOLED display; the Droid X and EVO 4G fell somewhere in the middle.

In terms of contrast, the Droid X and iPhone 4 did great and were on par. The highest contrast was from the AMOLED screen of the Droid Incredible. Although the Incredible's screen isn't as bright, the device benefits from having truer, richer, deeper blacks due to the AMOLED screen technology. On the iPhone 4, the contrast ratio is 1097, which is higher than the 800 that Steve Jobs mentioned during his keynote.

Color depth was highest in the iPhone 4 and the Droid X--both devices can display 24-bit color although the Android OS limits the Droid X's Gallery app to display photos in just 16-bit color. The HTC devices can render in 16-bit color.

In terms of color accuracy, the Droid X and EVO 4G had the best ratings. The iPhone 4 was undersaturated by about 36% while the Droid Incredible had an oversaturated display of about 37%.

Overall, it is said that the iPhone 4 "has the most well-rounded display of our bunch. It offers a completely 24-bit color experience, the brightest screen, and great contrast (for an LCD.) The iPhone 4 could be even better if didn't Apple didn't limit its color accuracy."

Re: MERGED - IPhone 4

Now that I have a non jailbroken phone I see I hardly use this shit. The apps are the only thing that keep me using it. I'm not buying all them shits though.

Never understood how they convinced people itunes was more simple than drag and drop into a folder. :smh:
 
Re: Switching from Android to iPhone 4? Here’s what you need to know

To each his/her own.. but for me, iTunes is great for syncing and playing music (or other digital media) across multiple mobile devices. When I play a song, a movie, a video, a podcast, an audio book on my iPad, iPhone or within iTunes and then sync that to my devices everything syncs.. ratings, play count, last play date etc. If I'm in the middle of a song it picks up right where I left off.. if I'm listening to an audio book, podcast, movie or song in my car on my iPhone and come in the house and sync.. I can then play it on iTunes or on my iPad and it remembers exactly where I left off.. it's seamless.

I use the remote app and so does my girl. When she comes over she can pull up her remote app and play any song from my library through my wireless speakers. She can request songs and queue them up right from her iPhone.

So, there may be better drag and drop solutions.. but I like the complete experience. Like I said, to each his/her own. I'm sticking with iTunes.

Re: Switching from Android to iPhone 4? Here’s what you need to know

very few people will find this useful. After having 3 Iphones, and 1 Android phone, I can't seem to understand why anyone would want to switch back to Iphone. There is not one thing my Iphones did better than my Android. The Iphones had a neater, more organized App store, but Android is such a better experience.

Two Cents

I can't seem to understand why anyone would want to switch back to Iphone.

I played around with a Evo 4G but I ended up with the iPhone 4, the iPhone just has a all-around better fit/finish, the display is off the chain, and it takes excellent pictures and HD video in a smaller package.

I will take a look at the Droid X when it hits the market but I'm not feeling these big ass droid phones.
 
Re: Switching from Android to iPhone 4? Here’s what you need to know

with close to 90,000 songs in my music library.. I need a manager of my music or I'd never be able to find what I want to listen to easily. Drag and drop simply is not an option.

I keep smart playlists sync'd to ALL my devices... those playlists are first organized by genre then ratings. Every time I rate a song 5 stars (regardless from which device I'm using at the time) it automatically adds and organizes that song by genre to all of my mobile devices upon syncing. Imagine trying to drag and drop that and keeping it uniform across multiple devices :smh:

Now You Can Bump iPhones to Become Facebook Friends






Christina Warren – Mon Jul 26, 1:57 pm ET


Bump, the app that makes it super simple to exchange information with other users by bumping phones, has just released Bump 2.0 [iTunes link] for the iPhone.
The app features an updated and refined interface plus the ability to compare calendars, instantly connect on Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn, and the ability to send messages back and forth without another Bump. Like its predecessor, Bump 2.0 is free.

Bump is a great app for people that travel in groups with lots of smartphone users because it makes it simple to transfer information without the need to pass out business cards. It's easy to use; just open up the app and make the "bump" gesture with the device to share your contact information.


You can set up your contact profile in Bump by selecting your existing address book entry or by creating [COLOR=#366388 ! important]something brand new[/COLOR]. You can then customize what information you want to include or exclude. We like that you can save multiple profiles, one of which you could use for, say, business contacts, and another for personal ones.


The ability to compare calendars and set up meetings on-the-fly is a great addition to Bump. It's sort of like Tungle.me and strikes us as being especially useful for business networking events.


If you set up Bump to let you share your Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn information instantly, Bump can even compare friends you have with the user you are "bumping" and show you items like photos from Facebook.


Bump also lets you share contacts and photos with the person you are bumping -- another nice touch. Bump alerts you when someone sends you their info and you can choose to add them to your [COLOR=#366388 ! important]Friends list[/COLOR] or follow them on Twitter.


This video shows Bump 2.0 in action:
