Thinner, heavier, and faster, the new iPhone 4 that Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced at Monday's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) was indeed the leaked prototype that caused such a ruckus a couple months back.
The iPhone 4 is 25 percent more svelte than the iPhone 3GS; it's 9.3mm thick and is powered by Apple's A4 chip, the same one that powers the iPad. Many more specs are available here.
At long last, Apple upgrades the iPhone's camera, bringing it up from 3 megapixels to 5. A front-facing camera also gives the iPhone the ability to place video calls. In addition, the LED flash on the main camera remains on when you switch on the video recorder.
