Apple iPhone 4 Hands On Tweet

The iPhone 4 is drastically different than the iPhone 3G or 3GS. To start, it has an all new design features a sheet of glass on the front as well as the rear. Having glass on the rear means that it is scratch resistant. The edges are aluminum and act as the antenna for the WiFi, Bluetooth, and cellular radios. The iPhone 4 is the thinnest smartphone available at 9.3mm, but is a bit heavier than the iPhone 3GS.

The display has such high resolution, that each pixel is nearly the width of a human hair. This makes for a super smooth image that is many times clearer than what you'll find on any smarpthone. The resolution is 960x640. Most high end smartphones like the Google Nexus One or EVO 4G have resolutions of 800x480.

The iPhone 4 has two cameras. The camera on the front is used for the FaceTime video chat feature. The camera on the rear is 5MP with an LED flash, and can also record 720p video.

The new iPhone ships with iOS 4 and is available on June 24. You can get the 16GB model for $199 and the 32GB model for $299.
