Apple has released iPhone’s third generation named iPhone 3GS. The S stands for speed. iPhone 3GS smartphone came equipped with a software upgrade – the iPhone OS 3.0. The iPhone 3GS didn’t bring many hardware changes this time, the smartphone still retains that same look and size. The iPhone 3GS carries over the 3.5’ OLED touchscreen, but receives a minor upgrade. Apple claims up to double the speeds for the phone. And the hardware changes is reportedly from, 412 MHz to the new 600 MHz processor and the 128 RAM is upgraded to 256MB RAM. I’ve noticed that web pages load faster and app launch faster as well.

iPhone 3GS finally see the bulk of the connectivity options, 3.6 Mbps HSDPA, quad band GSM (850/900/1800/1900 MHz), Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.1, although Apple is still locking down the Bluetooth for pairing with Apple headsets only. Another upgrade from the 3G is 3.0 MP camera with a tap-to-focus function, the picture quality is decent.

If you are new to the iPhones then the 3GS is a worthy smartphone to put in your pocket. The iPhone’s UI retains its ease of use, and the phone remains a strong multimedia device. Apple’s App store also gives you an additional option to tweak your software needs.
