The iPhone - A Longer Life
Posted June 18th, 2007 by Marius Trusculescu
Not even available on the market, Apple’s mobile phone already got some improvements today, ten days before its release. According to an official Apple statement the overly anticipated device promises to deliver more battery life: “up to 8 hours of talk time, 6 hours of Internet use, 7 hours of video playback or 24 hours of audio playback” and 250 hours (10 days) in stand-by mode.
The other upgrade announced today focuses on the multi-touch display. As the only input method of the iPhone, the display is clearly exposed to scratching and consequently Apple decided to replace it: “We’ve also upgraded iPhone’s entire top surface from plastic to optical-quality glass for superior scratch resistance and clarity“.
