Video:
Now you can shoot video, edit it, and share it — all on your iPhone 3G S. Shoot high-quality VGA video in portrait or landscape. Trim your footage by adjusting start and end points. Then share your video in an email, post it to your MobileMe gallery, publish it on YouTube, or sync it back to your Mac or PC using iTunes.

• Shoot video in widescreen: A tap of the camera toggle switches from photo to video. Then you’re ready to record 30-fps VGA video — perfect for posting on the web — in portrait or widescreen landscape.
  
• Edit video on the go: No need to wait until you’re at your computer to start editing your mobile movies. Trim your footage right on iPhone. Just drag to select start and end points on a filmstrip.
• Share video anywhere: Say you’re in the middle of a text message conversation when you see something video-worthy. Tap the camera icon in Messages to record on the fly and send it to your buddy via MMS. Or select video from the Camera Roll and let iPhone add it to a new email message, ready to send. Publishing to a MobileMe Gallery or to YouTube is also just a tap away. And iTunes syncs all the video you shoot on iPhone 3G S back to your Mac or PC.

3-Megapixel Camera:
The new 3-megapixel camera takes great still photos, too, thanks to built-in autofocus and a handy new feature that lets you tap the display to focus on anything (or anyone) you want.

• Tap to take a picture: iPhone snaps shots with a tap then saves them in the Camera Roll, where they’re easy to enjoy. Rotate iPhone to see a photo in landscape. Zoom in or out with a pinch or a double-tap. Turn any photo into your iPhone wallpaper. iPhone even geotags your photos with information about where they were taken.
• Share your photos: Select photos you want to email and iPhone opens a new message for you. Send photos via MMS, too. Or post everything directly to your MobileMe Gallery where friends and family can browse and download them.
• Tap to focus: Autofocus keeps things sharp, and a macro lens takes great close-ups. But you can also tap the iPhone display to selectively focus on anything in the picture — a face in the background, for example.
• Sync your photos: iPhone uses iTunes to sync the photos you have in iPhoto on a Mac or in Adobe Photoshop Elements and Adobe Photoshop Album on a PC. All the photos on your computer sync to your iPhone, so you can look at them — and share them — anywhere you go.

Voice Control:
Voice Control recognizes the names in your Contacts and knows the music on your iPod. So if you want to place a call or play a song, all you have to do is ask.

• Use your voice to make a call: Voice Control can find anybody in your contacts list. Simply say a name to make a call. Or say a phone number. iPhone repeats your voice commands to confirm them, then dials away.
• Use your voice to play music: Voice Control knows the music in your iPod, too. Ask your iPhone what song is playing (and hear it answer). Tell it to play your favorite album. Even have it play more songs like the one you’re listening to.

Compass & Maps:
With a built-in digital compass, iPhone 3G S can point the way. Use the new Compass app, or watch as it automatically reorients maps to match the direction you’re facing.

• Find locations: iPhone 3G S finds your location quickly and accurately via GPS, Wi-Fi, and cellular towers. Drop a pin to mark your location or share it with others via email or MMS.
• Get directions: View a list of turn-by-turn directions or follow a highlighted map route and track your progress with GPS. Specify if you’d like walking or driving directions, or see what time the next train or bus leaves with public transit directions.
• See which way you’re facing: A built-in digital compass rotates maps to always match the direction you’re facing. You can also use the compass on its own.
• See traffic: Maps on iPhone shows you live traffic information, indicating traffic speed along your route in easy-to-read green, red, and yellow highlights.


• Search for a location: Find locations by address or by keyword: Search for “coffee” to see every cafe near you. When you find what you’re looking for, tap the phone number to call, tap the web address to open the website in Safari, or add it to Contacts for future reference.
• Change your view: Maps on iPhone lets you switch between map view, satellite view, hybrid view, and street view. And you can always double-tap or pinch to zoom in and out on a map.

Cut, Copy & Paste:
Cut, copy, and paste words and photos, even between applications. Copy and paste images and content from the web, too.

• Cut, copy, and paste words: Quickly cut, copy, and paste words with a tap. You can also copy content from the web, then paste it into an email or text message.
• Copy and paste photos and videos: Copy multiple photos and paste them into an email or an MMS. Copy videos you’ve shot. Or copy images from the web to send and share.
• Shake to undo: If you make a mistake, just shake your iPhone to undo.

Keyboard

• Landscape Keyboard: Want more room to type on the intelligent software keyboard? Rotate iPhone to landscape to use a larger keyboard in Mail, Messages, Notes, and Safari.
• The key to faster typing: The iPhone keyboard accelerates your typing because it tracks what you type, then suggests words, corrects spelling, and inserts punctuation for you. It even learns the words you use most often. The trick is to just type away and trust the intelligence of the keyboard.
• Type for the app you're in: While the tiny physical keys on other mobile phones stay fixed in place, iPhone adapts its keys and layout for different applications.
• Type (or write) in your language: The iPhone software keyboard is adaptable, allowing you to switch between more than 40 international layouts. iPhone also features sophisticated character recognition software that lets you draw a Chinese character with your finger and tap to choose the matching result.

Messages: Send messages with text, video, photos, audio, locations, and contact information. You can even forward one or more messages to others.

Search:
Find what you’re looking for across your iPhone, all from one convenient place. Spotlight searches all your contacts, email, calendars, and notes, as well as everything in your iPod.

• Search across your iPhone: Flick to the left of the main Home screen to open Spotlight and search your iPhone. Tap to go directly to a contact, play a song, open a calendar event, and more.
  
• Search across applications: Search names in Contacts. Search subject, sender, and recipient in Mail. Search calendar events by subject, location, or attendees. Search all text in Notes. Search for albums, artists, or song titles in the iPod application.
• Search the server: If the contact or email message you’re looking for isn’t on your iPhone, you can continue your search on the server. Search responds with all the results so you can display them on your iPhone.

Accessibility:
iPhone 3G S offers accessibility features to assist users who are visually or hearing impaired. These features include the VoiceOver screen reader, a Zoom feature, White on Black display options, Mono Audio, and more.

• Built-in Accessibility: Accessibility comes standard on iPhone 3G S. From closed captioning to TTY support, Apple builds accessibility right into the iPhone operating system. And innovative new features on iPhone 3G S take accessibility a step further, right out of the box.
• VoiceOver: In addition to Voice Control, iPhone 3G S features VoiceOver, the world’s first gesture-based screen reader. Instead of memorizing keyboard commands or pressing tiny arrow keys, you simply touch the screen to hear a description of the item under your finger, then double-tap, drag, or flick to control iPhone. VoiceOver speaks 21 languages and works with all of the applications built into iPhone 3G S. VoiceOver also features a virtual control called the rotor. Turning the rotor — by rotating two fingers on the screen as if you were turning a dial — changes the way VoiceOver moves through a document based on a setting you choose. For example, a flick up or down might move through text word by word or character by character, perfect for proofreading or editing text.
• Zoom: Zoom on iPhone lets you magnify the entire screen of any application. Zoom up to 5 times normal size and move left, right, up, and down to view any portion of the screen close up. Zoom works everywhere, including the Home, Unlock, and Spotlight screens, and with every application. Even those you purchase from the App store.
• White on Black: If you need or prefer higher contrast, iPhone 3G S lets you change the display to white on black. Use the White on Black feature in any application, as well as the Home, Unlock, and Spotlight screens, and with Zoom and VoiceOver.
• Mono Audio: If your hearing is limited in one ear, tap a checkbox to route both right- and left-channel audio into both earbuds, so you can hear both channels in either ear.

Internet Tethering:
Surf the web from practically anywhere. Now you can share the 3G connection on your iPhone with your Mac notebook or PC laptop.

• Share the connection: With Internet tethering on iPhone, you don’t need a Wi-Fi hotspot to surf the web from your computer. Now you can share the 3G connection on your iPhone with your Mac notebook or PC laptop and connect to the Internet anywhere. When your iPhone is tethered, you can still send and receive data and make phone calls.
• Connect wirelessly: Wirelessly tether your computer to your iPhone using Bluetooth and you can stay cable-free. Just pair your iPhone with your Bluetooth-equipped computer, then select the iPhone Bluetooth PAN service as your network connection.
• Connect via USB: You can also use the USB cable included with your iPhone to enable Internet tethering — and charge your iPhone at the same time. Connect your iPhone to your computer via USB and select the iPhone USB network service as your network connection. All the necessary software is automatically installed using iTunes.

Voice Memos:
Capture and share a thought, a memo, a meeting, or any audio recording on the go with the new Voice Memos application.

• Record memos (or any audio): Record ideas, reminders, meetings, class lectures, notes — any audio you want — using the built-in iPhone microphone, your headset, or an external mic accessory. Voice Memos records even when you’re using your iPhone to do things like check email or surf the web.
  
• Manage memos: Keep all your memos organized by choosing labels from a predefined list or by creating your own custom labels.
  
• Edit memos: You can trim recorded memos right on iPhone. That way, you only keep what you need most.
  
• Share memos: Send memos to your friends and colleagues via email. Or attach them to an MMS message.* Memos you record on iPhone sync back to your Mac or PC via iTunes, so you can share them later.
