The
iPhone 4 is a
touchscreen smartphone developed by
Apple Inc. It is the
fourth generation iPhone, and successor to the
iPhone 3GS. It is particularly marketed for
video calling (marketed by Apple as
FaceTime), consumption of media such as books and periodicals, movies, music, and games, and for general web and e-mail access. It was announced on June 7, 2010, at the
WWDC 2010 held at the
Moscone Center, San Francisco,and was released on June 24, 2010, in the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Germany and Japan.
The iPhone 4 runs Apple's iOS operating system, the same operating system as used on previous iPhones, the iPad, and the iPod Touch. It is primarily controlled by a user's fingertips on the multi-touch display, which is sensitive to fingertip contact.
The most noticeable difference between the iPhone 4 and its predecessors is the new design, which incorporates an uninsulated stainless steel frame that acts as the device's antenna. The internal components of the device are situated between two panels of chemically strengthened aluminosilicate glass. It has an Apple A4 processor and 512 MB of eDRAM, twice that of its predecessor and four times that of the original iPhone. Its 3.5-inch (89 mm) LED backlit liquid crystal display with a 960×640 pixel resolution is marketed as the "Retina Display".
The latest operating system release is iOS 5.0.
In October 2011, the
iPhone 4S was announced, which retains the same form factor but includes many upgrades such as the
A5 processor,
iOS 5, and an improved camera
History
On April 19, 2010, gadget website
Gizmodo reported that they had purchased an iPhone prototype for $5000, and furthermore, had conducted a
product teardown of the device. The prototype is reported to have been lost by an Apple employee, Gray Powell, in
Redwood City, California. Shortly after Gizmodo published detailed information about the prototype, Apple's legal associates formally requested for the phone to be returned to Apple, and Gizmodo responded with the intent to cooperate. On April 22, officers from the Rapid Enforcement Allied Computer Team (REACT) task force of the California
HTTAP Program raided the home of Jason Chen, the Gizmodo editor responsible for reviewing the prototype, seizing all of his computers and hard drives.The
Electronic Frontier Foundation criticized the raid as violating journalist source protection laws that forbid the seizure of journalist computers as well as the suspicion that Apple had used its influence as a member of the steering committee which is charged with direction and oversight of the California REACT task force to push police into action in a way that would not normally be conducted for this type of incident. Apple had already received the iPhone prototype prior to the raid when it was returned by Gizmodo.The
District Attorney has stated that the investigation has been suspended, and discontinued searching through the Gizmodo editor's belongings as they determine whether the shield laws are applicable, and cautioned that no charges have been issued at this point
