Fantastic new dual camera with flash enables 5MP stills, HD video, and FaceTime calls. Gorgeous screen. Significant battery-life improvements. Zippy A4 processor runs iOS 4 smoothly. Better, faster 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity. Lovely design.
AT&T is sole U.S. carrier. Doesn’t sit in hand as comfortably as older iPhones. Glass finish is slippery and smudgy. Must be docked to upload HD video to YouTube.

What, you didn’t think we’d leave Apple (NSDQ: AAPL)’s WWDC 2010 Conference keynote without getting some hands-on time with the slick new iPhone 4 and its feature-ladden iOS 4, did you? Following Steve Jobs’ keynote earlier today, press types such as...

The iPhone 4 is a tremendous improvement over the previous phones from Apple. Battery life alone is enough to sell a brand new notebook, there's no reason the same shouldn't apply for a smartphone. Being able to deliver real world battery life use of betw...

Apple's iPhone 4 is truly a smartphone for the Beta Age. iPhone 4 is at once a state-of-the-art gadget that's a joy to use and a phone so hampered by issues that it really shouldn't be shipping. Voice calls sound far and away better on this iPhone tha...
I could go on, but it all boils down to this: iPhone 4 takes what iPhone 3GS did and makes it better: Faster, richer, sharper, clearer … better. When it works right, anyway. Currently there's too much that gets in the way of iPhone 4 constantly workin...

Solid build quality; great camera; good battery life; slim for easy pocketing; simple and easy for new users to pick up and learn.
Very slick back; two slabs of glass versus one; larger capacity is a bit pricy at $300 on-contract; poor notification system.
After four years of waiting and relentless rumors, the Verizon iPhone doesn't fully live up to its hype. It is a very nice device that offers a consistent experience with very few hiccups and is great for smartphone newcomers and veterans alike. But...
