Starlink, Qatar’s premium communications and entertainment retail and logistics business, has announced that, from 25 October 2011, it will be selling Apple’s newest handset, the iPhone 4S.
The iPhone 4S offers a whole range of new features including Apple’s dual-core A5 chip for super fast performance and stunning graphics; an all new camera with advanced optics; full 1080p HD resolution video recording; and Siri, an intelligent assistant that helps users get things done just by asking.
With the launch of iPhone 4S also comes the launch of iOS 5, the world’s most advanced mobile operating system with over 200 new features; and iCloud, a breakthrough set of free cloud services that work with the iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac or PC to automatically and wirelessly store content in iCloud and push it to all other devices.
The iPhone 4S includes a much-improved camera with the most advanced optics of any phone. The 8 megapixel sensor has 60% more pixels which means high quality photos with more detail than ever. The Apple-designed image signal processor in the A5 dual-core chip is built for performance, and coupled with the features built into iOS 5, makes the camera one of the fastest on any phone.
New features in the Camera and Photos apps give the user instant access to the camera right from the lock screen, and the volume-up button can be used to easily take a photo.
New iOS 5 features include built-in Twitter integration and iMessage, allowing users to instantly share photos via Twitter directly from the Photos app and send photos via iMessage to individuals or groups.
The iPhone 4S can also now record video in full 1080p HD resolution and with the new video image stabilization feature, allowing for richer, smoother videos. Other iPhone 4S video camera improvements include increased sensitivity, sharpness and an increased ability to capture video in low light conditions.
The new iMessage service in iOS 5, means that users can instantly share videos with family and friends.
Apple’s dual-core A5 chip delivers up to twice the processing power and up to seven times faster graphics than iPhone 4, all while maintaining incredible battery life—now up to 8 hours of 3G talk time.
