Apple 3G iPhone
Quad-band GSM/Tri-band W-CDMA with EDGE/HSDPA

Full Product Teardown Report

Product Description Accompanied by media frenzy, the July 2008 release of the Apple 3G iPhone proved to be an event of worldwide significance. Retaining the sleek glass-faced bar form and touchscreen interface of its predecessor, the new iPhone builds on an established platform by doubling available memory and adding functionality. Of particular interest is the addition of W-CDMA/HSDPA capability and Assisted GPS, improvements that propel the 3G iPhone into the "World Phone" arena. Both the 8GB and 16GB models were examined for this report. With the exception of memory capacity, the two are essentially identical. The now-familiar feature set, including orientation-sensitive display, 2.0MP camera, 802.11b/g WiFi, Bluetooth, music and video player, and games, is again integrated into a highly intuitive user environment.
