iPhone 4 is not released in the markets YET people!

WARNING : this post might be boring for those who are "not so tech-freaks", although I didn't go through the technical details as much as I'd love to, but you've been pre-warned!!

 

well I'm a bit late but the reason I'm writing this post is because of the people that keep babbling about iPhone 4 and how it's already out and some stupid rumors that I'd like to address here.

I actually send a long SMS to my friends about this

" iPhone 4 is not released in the markets yet, you can pre-order it from Apple and it'll be released around 23 of this month (actually it's the 24th XD) if my memory serves me, and the prices of iPhone 4 will be almost like iPhone 3Gs so the previous generations prices will go down a bit.
it's impossible and there is no freaking way that the iPhone4 is  sold in stores right now! and the even more ridiculous rumor about it being sold with 90 O.R ( equivalent to $234 !!! ) is so freaking NOT TRUE!, who spread this rumor must have been day dreaming or is cracked headed apparently"

First of all, iPhone 4 was announced about in the WWDC 2010 conference from Apple, you can check about it from the official Apple website,  YouTube clips about Apple official video for the iPhone 4 or just google about it! The pre-ordering proccess started in June15 and it's going to be available starting of June 24 in 5 countries : the U.S, U.K, Germany, France and Japan! then it will be sold in another 18 countries EXCLUDING the Arab countries in July . Probably the distribution of the iPhone 4 will reach the Arab countries in August! .. sources : Apple & iPhone islam (arabic website)






Second of All , The features of iPhone4 are enhanced from the iPhone 3Gs with some cool features but for the average user it won't be much of a difference since iOS 4 will be available for the previous generations as well! I won't go to the details of the specifications since many websites and blogs have already covered that area! so get off your lazy bones and just google it!

Ofcourse Apple will market for the new product as if it's the best thing on earth and the old versions of iPhone won't be as hip again!well if you got too much money in your hands then why not!

Third of all,  Apple's products have really one of the most steady pricing status among the years, so saying that the new iPhone price hit the ground is absolutely stupid and unrealistic!! The prices of the iPhone 4 are almost like iPhone 3Gs about $599 (around 230 O.R)  for the 16 GB version $699 (around 269 O.R) for the 32 GB version (for the LOCKED UP ones in the U.S! so it's gonna be more expensive in our regions ).
In our regions it may reach up to $700 (around 269.5 O.R) for the 16 GB version ( this is EXCLUDING the taxes, shipment and whatever reason the retail stores might come up with in our area so be prepared!! XD )

At last, should you get the new iPhone?
here are some questions you should ask yourself before getting one that I found quite interesting! ( translated from a post in iPhone Islam ).


1- Do you love reading alot on the iPhone?
2- Do you use the phone camera alot?
3- Do you like video recording ?
4- Do you game alot in your phone?
5- Is your current iPhone older than iPhone 3Gs?

if your answers for more than one question is Yes, then we recommend you to buy one!

well I promised to blog about it to some friends so here it is folks! hope it helped you even a lil bit XD

Cheers,

Maria
