iPhone 3G vs. 4G

Where did you hear that? Do you even have a 4G network where you live?

3G here is not even working properly (poor signal).

*Laughs at 128gb memory*

Probably just 16gb and 32gb.

should have 128gigs? lol how in the world you come up with that number?

I think I saw a stupid photoshop of something like this, it was 3.0 too

Yeah 3G isn't even that good in the UK yet. Plenty of bad signal areas. But if 4G is available, I'll go for it anyway... just cos it's new

Hmm , a bit of confusing terminology here I feel !

what with the 1G (1st Gen) iPhone referred to as the "2G" (referring to the cellular technology ) , and then the 2G (as in second Gen) being called "3G"


I think it's probably safe to say that the NEXT iphone (3rd Gen) will STILL be 3G , but I suspect everyone will refer to it as 4G , even though it's 3rd Gen device using 3rd Gen technology !!
They couldn't have made it more confusing if they tried

My speculations (I haven't read anything it's just what I believe)

- Improved camera, 3.2MP.
- iChat function with 2nd "invisible" camera
- Improved CPU and more RAM (192 or 256 MB?)
- 16 and 32GB versions
- Firmware 3.0.

As far as firmware 3 is concerned the only thing I have to comment on is themes. When I first thought about it, I was not sure if Apple would like to have themes on the iPhone - because after all it's Apple . On the other hand they can probably sell themes on itunes store which will make them money and well it's Apple and money + customer satisfaction = paradise for them.

It's completely safe to say the next iphone will be 3G and probably safe to say the next two or even three will be 3G.

Yet another new phone thread/

In the meantime and after what I have read in Wikipedia it definitely seems to still be 3G... So the used terminology in the papers was really rather confusing than helpful...

It is always going to be confusing with Apple Products being referred to as 1G /2G /3G , and the technology also being named 2G /3G /4G
To make matters even more confusing , here in the UK a lot people mistakenly refer to the (3G) network "3" as '3G'


Couldn't be simpler !

4G tech won't be around for quite some time. When 3G is the norm/standard, then we'll see the transition to 4G.

A better question, what will the name of the new iPhone be?

Stop wasting bandwidths on your post and actually post something useful. I thought forums are open to discussions as long as they are not repeating previous threads. This thread isn't doing that.

Gotta love these posts. OP is clearly confused between network & Apple versioning... 3G is the network. Currently we have the 2nd generation iPhone overall, so the next one would still be a 3G, but the 2nd release, so either it would be the 2nd generation 3G, or 3G 2nd generation iPhone.

Good morning mates!

I am new here in this forum and am located in central Europe. I have read the rumor that Apple will come up with a iPhone 4G this summer. This item should even have a 128 GB memory...

Since I am still using a Nokia E51 I am thinking of switching to the iPhone as soon as my cell provider contract is ending, which would be at the end of March.

Now here is my question:

Does anybody know a bit more regarding this new 4G already (expected price range? new technical features? etc.)?

Hail the rumors! ;-)

Best regards and thanks in advance!

sorry but you have no clue for making such a post, 4g yeah right.

4G.

One better the 3G.

But why not wait for a 5G which is TWO better?

I guarantee you that the next iphone will have *EXACTLY* the features that Apple builds into it.

I'd say your dead on with one exception - themes. Maybe not the second camera, but I can see it very useful. Plus - moving iChat to the iPhone with AIM support would be nice.

I'd like to see 32/64gb. I think it's more of a possibility than before. (Don't really have anything to go on besides the pricing for 64gb chips are in the $120 range.
