Review: The Verizon iPhone 4
Editor's Note: This article was originally published in February 2011 when Apple released 16GB and 32GB iPhone 4 models compatible with Verizon's CDMA network. In October 2011, Apple pared down its iPhone 4 offerings to a single 8GB model that worked on either GSM or CDMA networks.

- Fast processor with lots of RAM
- 5-megapixel camera takes great stills and good HD video
- Longer battery life than previous iPhones
- iOS 4 features
- including multitasking
- FaceTime

Review: Apple Verizon iPhone 4
After years as an iPhone customer on AT&T, I forgot what it was like to have a reliable, working phone. But over the weekend, when I called buddies with both an AT&T iPhone 4 and subsequently a Verizon iPhone 4, we could immediately tell the difference.
Pros:
- It's a better phone, period
- More likely to pull a signal, even indoors - this could change the way we converse at bars
- Hot-spotting is well-integrated and very easy to use
- Has a whiter, slightly better-looking display
Cons:
- Slow data transfers compared to the AT&T iPhone
- Sluggish app installs take away from the App Store's instant gratification
- Video streams are compressed more heavily, so Netflix and YouTube are uglier
- No simultaneous voice and data transmissions thanks to the limitations of CDMA

The political philosopher Steven Lukes argued that the mark of true power is the ability to make people want what you want them to have. If that's the case, there is currently no company stronger than Apple.

iPhone 4
Continuing reception issues aside, the iPhone 4 is the best iPhone yet, and it's still one of the best smartphones on the market. After 4 years, the competition is catching up though, and we've seen this before with Apple.
Pros:
- Beautiful design
- sharp display
- Facetime
Cons:
- Not a phone you want to drop
- reception and call quality iffy

iPhone 4
Like most people who first get ahold of one of these things, I was impressed. The same kind of compact and elegant design Apple delivers in their computers, and a whole lot of the same high-powered tools that make computing useful and enjoyable-from internet browsing to voice recording to the built...

Apple iPhone 4
No phone has been as anticipated this year as Apple's update to its hugely popular iPhone 3GS, this time bringing in new hardware and a new design to complement a new operating system in iOS 4. We thought HTC Desire fever was big, but nothing can beat iPhone fever.
Pros:
- High resolution screen with great contrast
- touch response
- intuitive user interface
- App Store
- HD video play back
Cons:
- Price
- odd situation with network reception

Verizon Apple iPhone 4 Review by Taylor
The Verizon iPhone 4 is a great device and it should fare well among its current competition. However, there are upcoming Android devices with dual-core processors, much larger displays, and LTE connectivity. I fear the iPhone 4 on Verizon may soon be forgotten.
Pros:
- Solid build quality
- great camera
- good battery life
- slim for easy pocketing
- simple and easy for new users to pick up and learn
Cons:
- Very slick back
- two slabs of glass versus one
- larger capacity is a bit pricy at $300 on-contract
- poor notification system

Apple iPhone 4 review
Apple's fourth-generation smartphone really is its best yet, notwithstanding controversy about external antennae. In our tests, reception was outstanding. Its screen is the highest resolution of just about any screened gadget, with amazing colour and definition.

Speck Fitted iPhone 4 Case Review
I bought the Speck Fitted iPhone 4 Case off Amazon instead of choosing it from the free case program for iPhone 4 because I already chose the slightly more expensive InCase Snap Case. First, the Speck fitted case is made from very hard plastic.
