Daily Telegraph reviews iPhone 4: Not just a slight improvement over iPhone 3GS, a massive jump

On the occasion on the iPhone 4 launch in Australia, Stephen Fenech reports for The Daily Telegraph, “I knew it would be impossible to review Apple’s new iPhone 4 without first discussing the antenna ‘issue.’ I’ve been using the iPhone 4 for nearly a week to make calls, send and receive emails and surf the web from various places around the city and suburbs.”

“Is the antenna an issue? No it’s not,” Fenech reports. “Have I dropped calls? No, I have not. Have I noticed an impact on the device’s performance? No.”

“Now it would be impossible for me to test every single mobile reception area in Australia just as it would be unlikely any iPhone 4 user will use the device in every mobile reception area in Australia,” Fenech reports. “If reception is an issue where you live you will probably experience difficulties no matter what smartphone you use.”

“Is the iPhone 4 an improvement over the iPhone 3GS? Absolutely,” Fenech reports. “The iPhone 4 is the best smartphone Apple has ever made… You can only appreciate how thin the device is when you hold it on your hand. The iPhone 3GS next to the iPhone 4 is like a before and after photo of a Biggest Loser contestant.”

“The iPhone 4 is not just a slight improvement over the iPhone 3GS, it is a massive jump,” Fenech reports. “There are so many enhancements across the board it will be hard for existing iPhone owners to resist and a great place to start for users who are new to the smartphone market.”
