My New iPhone 4
Got home at about 6am from the Maxis iPhone 4 launching event. I was thinking of leaving the iPhone 4 first, and have it set up after a good sleep. But with my previous SIM card deactivated already, I have to set up this phone first or else I can’t receive any phone calls. But I got to do the usual unboxing process first.
So here’s the bag that I got just now, with iPhone 4 inside.
There’s a hint of striking green on this bad, which seems to be the theme colour for the launching this time at the launching event.
Talking about me having high sentimental value, and the tendency of keeping bag and boxes of things that I bought in the past, I still have the bag that I got buying iPhone 3G that was about 1 year and 6 months ago.
So what’s in the bag? Just the iPhone and only the iPhone. No free goodies what so ever. Last time I do get free Maxis iPhone t-shirt, even though it’s not my size.
As you may have aware, iPhone 4 is using micro SIM card. This is the new micro SIM card that I got, which is activated within 5 minutes from the time that I got my iPhone, deactivating the old SIM card.
The size comparison with the old SIM card. I also heard that you can do DIY converting the big SIM card to the micro SIM card by cutting the excess plastic. That will be useful if you plan to use iPhone 4 with telco that doesn’t offer micro SIM yet.
Here are the contents of the box – the iPhone itself, headphone, USB cable, charger and documentations.
My iPhone 3G (which I will be selling it soon) next to the new iPhone 4. Retina display is such a jaw dropping thing. In the past, I found that iPhone 3G interface is very clean and shiny. But after looking at the screen of iPhone 4 for a while, and look back at the iPhone 3G screen, it feels that the UI of iPhone 4 is so blur.
The next thing, I will need casing and screen protector for this pricey thing. I got the NUDE casing from SwitchEasy. I like the this because it’s ultra thin, only 1mm. I also like the anti-glare and anti-fingerprint screen protector from Power Support, the same one that I used for iPhone 3G last time. I got the same thing for iPhone 4G too.
Finally, as what I always do when getting a new mobile phone, here is my updated phone timeline. As always, I kinda wondering what will be next 😉
Nokia 3210 | Nokia 8310 | Nokia 6610 | Nokia 3650 | Nokia 6600 | O2 Xda II mini | ||||||
Nokia N95 | HTC Touch Pro | Apple iPhone 3G | Apple iPhone 4 |
the moment I heard about the party, u came across my mind. I bet to myseld that u'll be getting one for urself…. and… wallah.. u really did! 🙂
hehe. my other friends also relate me to iPhone. but i believed that there are even more hardcore iPhone fan out there that should get this credit 😀
nak beli tak mampu..dpt tgk jadilah huhuu…
meowwmania minat iPhone gak ek?
wah…so cool….review la sket ttg iphone4 ni lps guna bbrpa hari 😉
cukupkan guna seminggu dulu. baru leh wat review. hehe
Saya sangat jeles la dengan awak.. 🙂
ahakz. if you know the total damage that it has done to my pocket, awak takkan jeles lagi
hi ed. yes. did that. the antennagate problem does exist
that screen protector really cost RM118 from machines? Really expensive…check this: http://www.powersupportusa.com/accessories/iphone…
yeah. iphone accessories are ridiculously expensive. it's powersupport screen protector that i'm using. i'm using the 3-piece Film Set: HD Anti-Glare Front, Crystal Front and Crystal Back one
huhu god of gadget~ 🙂 tp simkad tu takleh share la dgn phone biasa ek
tu lah drawback dia sekarang. sim card tu dah takleh cabut then cucuk kat phone lain.
sy sempat view customer punye iPhone4 kat Mahkota Parade, UI yg kat tmpat test iPhone4 (Maxis Center) much better..how about u phone?ade try compare?
takde plak try compare. much better macam mana tu?
display resolution.. lg terang n clear..huhu even setting dah di adjust sama dengan iPhone tester
oh ye ke? nanti nak pegi try comparelah. tapi kalau nak compare, kena compare iphone 4 vs iphone 4. klu compare ngan previous model, memang iphone 4 lagi terang sebab dia ada high resolution retina display
NK DPTKAN Microsim 2 kt mne ek…
klu beli iphone, nanti maxis akan tukar ke microsim on the spot.dlm masa 15 minit sim card lama akan expired, dan microsim tu akan activate. tapi klu tak pakai iphone, kita leh tukar ke micro sim gak. tapi dia kenakan bayaran utk tukar
