*** The all new iPhone 4 thread - Keep all iPhone 4 stuff in here ***

From the last thread. Is that the price showing internally at o2 now or just a random guess?

Nope its right here mate:

Im guessing/hoping the entire price structure will change though on release.

Looks nice and some nifty features in it ie video calling altho i cant really see that taking off here as we had it way back when 3G was first launched ie video calling by 3.

Looks like the leaked one was for real then, as it seems to be the same design.

It was quite obviously the real leaked one, question is was it an official leak? Most likely IMO.

Yup, it's the A4 but there was no mention of the speed and whether it's the same 1GHz as the iPad.

I doubt it would be clocked slower or there would be no actual hardware update between this and the 3Gs. We already know the GFX chip is the same (due to using the A4 processor) so any reducton in clock speed will mean alomost identical CPU as well.

Definitely getting one, I've decided on it! Well worth the upgrade from my 3G just pre-registered with O2.

 

[Amp34]

Wonder if any of our networks will copy the AT&T early upgrade that Jobs mentioned? It still seems fundamentally silly to me that no-one who bought a 3Gs on contract can upgrade to a v4 on launch!

Why? All other phone manufacturers do the same.

Thats the price today and what it was at launch - soz just referring to the 3GS price...

Was hoping to get an idea re Mobile Me going free - guess its time to see how much I can sell my 32Gb 3GS for now - dno if I cba with the bay...

I cant wait to get this, currently on the 3G with O2 and out of contract. What would the deal be with going from a Carphone Whorehouse O2 contract and upgrading to a direct O2 iPhone 4 contract I wonder.

Did anyone who had video calling on their old phone use it? I don't think that I ever managed it. I'm looking forward to this, as I know a fair few of my mates will be getting it.

They could have cleaned them up!

Good spot.
The black model seems to show finger prints and dust a lot more than the white version.

 

[Nocky24]

Can you stick your existing O2 iPhone sim into a PAYG iPhone 4 without any loss of functionality? Mine's a 3GS contract.

Same here! According to cnet you can cut your standard sim and not lose any functionality as the contact area is exactly the same as the micro sim, just more plastic. Theres videos of people doing this with the ipad and have proved it works.

I've had video calling on my phones for about the last 3-4 years, used it twice, for about 30 seconds each to test it with friend. That was the first and about only time they have used it either...

Ohh, I thought that was pricing for the iPhone 4. Seems to be cheaper on the Apple Store than the o2 Store as well.

Everyone who did that, myself included, can. You just have to pay like every other mobile owner.

 

[Kawolski]

Practical question time.
When i get this and plug it in to iTunes whats the deal with transferring all the stuff from my 3G?

 

[wellibob]

get a ipad, and really stand out from the crowd !

 

[Meatball]

Definitely getting iPhone4, not being locked in a contract has it perks . Just got to decide which network and where I'm going to que. Works out nicely as my shift pattern means I have 24 & 25th of June off .

Shame about no 64Gb, although with all the other improvements I'm not fussed.

 

[mOdO]

Anyone here keeping their 3GS? At the moment I don't think the upgrade is worth it - shall I sell?

 

[Burned_Alive]

It makes sense that they keep the storage low otherwise it'd take a lot of people away from ipods altogether.

Sync your 3G to iTunes, connect the new phone, restore the backup. Job jobbed.

Just cut your sim down, go PAYG for iphone 4 and sell your 3GS, job done (in theory). All depends on the pricing though. If it stays around the current £500 mark and less than £600 then i'll hopefully be getting it.
