The new iPhone 3G version has just been released by Apple and it has made an impact immediately. As compared to the earlier version, this one scores pretty high on all parameters and is something that every mobile user must actively consider possessing.

Mobile users who have been accustomed to the "edge" technology and network did not make the transition to 3G in a hurry due to the entry cost that was perceived to be on the higher side. To a certain extent, the earlier version of Apple 3G did suffer from a lukewarm response and did not get away to a start that was possibly expected given the track record of Apple with other similar products. Another perception was that the benefits provided by 3G was not considered exceptional and people did not want to spend extra money.

That is when the folks at Apple decided to launch a new version with the extra 's' for speed and now this phone is something that truly delivers on its promise and people are more than willing to make that extra investment in purchasing this phone. They also provided the much deserved and demanded video recording feature and that has made it a big hit considering the fact that it is not very usual for a Smartphone like the iPhone to have such a wonderful and impressive video recording facility. Moreover, there are some basic items provided through which the recorded videos can be even edited and that is the extra plus factor that has made this model very popular. Of particular mention is the email and MMS convenience and with this device, you only need to position the phone horizontally to send both text and MMS to anyone of your choice.

Further, the much improved camera with 3-megapixel makes shooting of stills and moving images a pleasure and the good news for those less inclined to take the trouble and shoot with proper focus, the tapping screen feature enabling them to do so in a jiffy. Apple has also boosted the storage capacity from 16GB to 32GB. The most important part of this iPhone and something which gives it the cutting edge is the speed that is powered by the superior processor duly upgraded in this version.

One more excellent feature is the voice recognition software imbedded in this phone. This is a great benefit while driving as you can really stay hands free by just mentioning the name and the phone will do the dialing for you. Moreover, you can also use it as a Dictaphone and also play music by just saying your preferred artist name.

The built in compass, the map, new improved headphones and remote are other excellent facilities that come with this device. Connecting your 3G to the Mac or PC is also very easy and you can browse the internet.

This phone also supports cut and paste facility, which has been a long standing requirement from many users.

Apple has really welcomed out a winner with this 3G iPhone.
