The new Image Signal Processor Apple designed will also enable face detection and 26% better white balance. The iPhone 4S’ camera has backside illumination, the new sensor will allow the camera to gather 73% more light, and it’s faster than the iPhone 4’s old camera. That’s 60% more pixels that the old iPhone’s camera. The camera has been improved: the 4S has an 8 megapixel sensor shooting pics at 3264 x 2448 resolution. The iPhone 4S is a world-phone as previously rumored, integrating both GSM and CDMA technologies in a single, updated antenna design. The iPhone 4S comes with a new wireless system as well – downloads are faster over 3G with up to 14.4Mbps down. In spite of the iPhone 4S’ faster processor and dual-core graphics, Apple is guaranteeing 8 hours of 3G talk time, 6 hours of 3G browsing, and up to 10 hours of video/40 hours of music.

To demonstrate the 4S’ graphic capabilities, Apple invited Epic Games on stage to demo Infinity Blade 2, which will be available on December 1. The iPhone 4S is powered by Apple’s dual-core A5 chip, which will allow for graphics up to 7 times faster. As widely expected, the iPhone 4S looks exactly like the existing iPhone 4 model – industrial design with metal band in the middle, glass front and rear panels. Apple’s Phil Schiller took the stage today at Apple’s media event in Cupertino to officially unveil the iPhone 4S, Apple’s latest entry in the iPhone family.
