A few pages back there was a big argument about the white balance on iPhone4 camera. After using my new 4 over the weekend, my thoughts are that the iPhone4 deals with yellow/tungsten lighting extremely poorly.

Outdoors, and indoors under normal/decent lighting, it's a good (for a phone) camera. Indoors under any sort of yellow-ish lighting, photographs taken are even more yellow than they should be.

I've attached an example. Do note that the walls in this house are white, however the iP4 has rendered everything a sick yellow.

A second flaw I've encountered is the terrible contrast exaggeration, particularly when taking videos. Screengrabbed a video, if you look at the red circle on my cousin's hand, you can see that it's as if someone is shining a spotlight only on her hand. however in actuality, the lighting in the house was very, very even.

hahhahahah this one is even funnier than the question

genius bar summore

deodorant the white balance issue is pretty interesting. going to do a iphone 4 vs SE c902 camera comparison later heheh

@stringfellow

I told you so right. They will keep asking this question and they never bother to even read the iPhone manual that comes with the phone. Even Apple website has picture on which is the speaker and which is the mic and yet, these question pops up..hahahaha.

@giovanni

I reckon you better read the Phone manual as well.

sorry, this is my first time using iphone device and i nvr tot that the 'speaker' actually mic.

Nope, sorry , no free pass. I don't go around buying my first DVD player and ask why there's no picture when I turn it on. I read the manual when that happens. I read the manual for which cables to plug into and which channel to turn on to. Same case here. Apple did not employ anyone here, or its Genius bar staff for that matter, questions with commonly known answers. Some things, after its fourth iteration, are common knowledge. Even if that DVD player I mentioned before, is my first one, I wouldn't dare simply turn it on and assume that everything would work based on what I "think" it should be. I read the manual. Or make sure I read and know everything there is needed to know before I bring that matter to the attention of others. Probably to avoid from making a fool of myself.

I'm sure in your line of work, with your job "working as computer technician formatting PC and lappy", you'd be reading instructions and procedures laid out on a specific manner on some for of printed text, wouldn't you?

@DG,

I raise you "one dinner meal" for the next idiot who ask another common knowledge/common sense question. I predict that it will be, from the look of things here, that it would be in the span of one month,or if I'm lucky, less than that. If it didn't happen, I belanja you dinner.

@nokia2003,

Score indeed. I've reset the timer for the "next facepalming question" to be asked, care to bet when that is gonna happen? We can wager meals or Starbucks coffee if you like. We can bet on "stupid answers to stupid questions" too, I'd imagine the lines exchanged between them would be straight from the movie "Dumb and Dumber"

@stringfellow
before i asked here, i've checked the instructions (both in english and chinese) and finger tips inside the iphone 4's box and there is no information about it. nvrmind, no need to go on RAGE MODE on me laio... lesson learned ady... huhu...

These scenario of commonly FAQ is also rampant in other windows mobile and android forums. Most mods do a verge good job putting up a good summary of product features, links to other site, FAQ, etc in the post 1 or 2. Problem is most new users never bother to even read these first posts. Forget about even asking them to refer to manual

Before I even buy any new notebook, smartphone I will always research about it in the appropriate forum. It is now so convenient. I will download the manual if available and read it first.

This is a problem and a growing one I noticed especially with the younger generation. They expect instant answers, they face a issue they jump into the forum and ask. I see same problem with some of my staffs in my work experience past 35 years.
There is lack of initiative and unwillingness to research for solutions. All they want is instant answer. Not suprising such staffs of mine rarely get the needed promotions due to lack of initiatives.

iPhone 3G on iOS4 is really slow man... im waiting everyday for the updates of 4.1

I hope this can answer the question...

Nobody's "raging" "laio", just pointing out the "white elephant in the room". Checking out the instruction booklets, especially the Fingertips booklet provided, it points to :-



On the Learn More section inside the booklet, it again points to that link above. And it even provides the iPhone User Guide links to view or download, and guess what, it points to the relatively same info as the one in the pinned thread here. VEterans would be fine to skim through without reading because they know what components and parts are on their iPhone, but newbies like you, it doesn't make sense to get to know your iPhone before you use it? Funny how some people think that once they've held the iPhone in their hands that they think they know everything about it already.

+1 on the bolded part. It seems to be the cancerous problem with these people, they're so used to getting their answers fast, they turn to the forum and expect the same treatment here. Funny thing is, there is an equally fast way to get the same information: Google. In fact, if he even bother to Google the very same question he asked , "my iphone 4 left speaker sounds so slow than my right one..is it normal?", the answer he would get from that search result, third from the top, would have already got him his answer, and only in 0.21 seconds. Plus it avoids making himself looking like an idiot asking in public forums like here. Oh well, like you say, "kids these days". I not that old myself, and I thank God I don't fall victim to fits of laziness like this.

@yuvanesh

I think the next time another person ask that same question, we just post that picture. I gave up asking them to read up on the manual.

Even 4.1 cant help you much, the lags will still bothering you. Its better to downgrade back to 3.1.3. IMO, 3.1.3 is the max stage i3g can reach.

yeah... my i3G ... got sick of the slowness... reverted back to 3.1.3 ... i do miss the 'Open With...' feature... and the other cool stuff in 4.0 ...

but a slow phone is not worth ANY new feature.

anyone of u face this issue?

http://www.iphonehacks.com/2010/06/iphone-...ring-calls.html

i always prefer to call than sms and this issue is really annoying. i know there's nothing we can do until Apple fix it, but if anyone of u face it, can share any tips to reduce the problem?

that's an article written in june

i believe they fixed it in 4.0.1 already

nope. it's not fixed in my case.. i mean i used to lots of touch screen devices, iphone, win mo, n android, but this is the 1st device that i've problem during phone conversation ..

forgive me. if iPhone 4 has new method of holding the phone that i dunno..

just wait for the 4.1 update. if you don't feel like waiting, return the phone.

This issue is not resolved yet and it seems does not affect every user ; probably due to production issues in certain batches of production. Apple had acknowledge this is a problem and Steve Jobs at his last conference promised a software patch but apparently was not in the 4.01

A very good and detailed comparison. Those having issues with photo n video quality the writer explain very well the iphone4 deficiencies. Again in any comparison there is no winner ..choice will depend on which features are more important to you
