The iPhone 3GS Hardware Exposed & Analyzed

—

First, two quotes from my review of the original iPhone :“The issue is that the iPhone interface is just as responsive as a computer, so you inherently expect the sort of performance you'd see on a notebook and it's just impossible on a device like the iPhone." “I think overall we need a handful ...

iPhone 3G S could be a powerful gaming device
The Tech Report: News — ... — 6:00 AM on June 11, 2009 Apple claims the new iPhone 3G S is up to twice as fast as the regular iPhone 3G, but it hasn't gone into a whole lot of detail about why that is. In his latest piece, Anand Lal Shimpi from Anandtech has dug into the new iPhone's hardware specs to paint a more thorough picture. According to Lal Shimpi, Apple has made the jump from a 412MHz ARM11 processor core to a 600MHz ARM Cortex A8. The latter has a longer pipeline and a dual-issue design, which reportedly makes it analogous to a "modern day Pentium." (The ARM11, by contrast, is more like a ...

iPhone 3G S has promising gaming capabilities
TechSpot — Although Apple already promotes the iPhone and iPod touch as very capable gaming devices, the recently-announced 3G S handset will offer even more potential for more elaborate titles in the coming months. At least that’s what many are hoping following reports detailing its souped-up innards. According to Anand Lal Shimpi from Anandtech ...

iPhone 3GS Torn Down, Reveals an ARM CortexA8 CPU That Can Go Bigger, Faster [Smartphones]
Gizmodo — The Rapid Repair crew ventured to France to obtain an early iPhone 3GS, dismantle it, and scope out the inner components. Their discovery? The same 600 MHz CPU powering the Palm Pre (that can actually run at 833 MHz). Though the two phones share the same CPU and GPU, they run on different chipsets (iPhone: Samsung SoC S5PC100, Pre: TI OMAP 3430). However, this Samsung chipset is also capable of handling 720p video recording, streaming vid conferencing and even Dolby 5.1 audio processing, giving this hardware some serious future potential. AnandTech also posted an interesting theory regarding this ...

Memory Scaling on Core i7 - Is DDR3-1066 Really the Best Choice?
AnandTech Article Channel — And we begin, with a graph: [image] The graph above represents the cost, from Newegg.com, of 11 different 6GB DDR3 memory kits (1066 C7/C5 are the same kit). The only variables are the manufacturer and speed of the DDR3 memory included in the kit. The least expensive DDR3-1066 6GB kit we purchased sells for $80, the most expensive 6GB kit? $289. That’s over a $200 difference; that and some pocket change is enough to pay for a sweet new video card ...

Understanding the iPhone 3GS
AnandTech Article Channel — I get some sort of odd satisfaction when Apple releases a product whose fundamental improvement is a new CPU. It happened when Apple first announced the MacBook Air , and it happened once more with the new iPhone 3GS : [image] From Left to Right: iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPhone From a distance you can’t tell it apart from the iPhone 3G, which itself was arguably a step back in design from the original aluminum iPhone. But Apple products only sell because they look pretty right? How on earth would Apple ever justify selling an iPhone 3GS whose fundamental improvement is inside its pretty plastic? [image] To make matters worse, ...
