A Review of The Multimedia Functionality Of The Best Selling iPhone 4S
|
The Apple iPhone 4S is the latest in a long line of success stories for the California based tech giant. It is the handset which introduced groundbreaking features such as Siri, the voice activated personal assistant, and the 8 megapixel camera which many critics agree is the best on the market.
In this article, I will take a look at how Apple has used its multimedia ecosystem to ensure the continued success of the iPhone brand.
iTunes
When you buy a new iPhone, you are required to activate it through iTunes, meaning that all iPhone users have iTunes in their computer already. The handset itself also has the iTunes app built in as standard, so users are already set up to download music and videos straight to their phone. Also, users can sync their music collection from on their computer with their iPhone 4S.
iPod
Once users have synced their music, they can use the built in iPod functionality which is pre-installed on the iPhone 4S. This allows the phone to double up as an iPod touch, the most popular portable music player in the world. Users can arrange their music into playlists, n their computer, and once synced enjoy their music through the phone, using the iconic white Apple earphones supplied with the handset. The iPod app also has the attractive coverflow feature, which allows users to browse and select their music by scrolling through album cover artwork.
AppStore
The AppStore is the Apple’s medium through which users of the iPhone 4S and other Apple devices can browse and download additional supplication straight to their device. There are currently over 500,000 apps and counting, within numerous categories. Some are free whilst other require a payment through the same bank and card details used to register with iTunes. Apple recently announced that over 1 billion apps have been downloaded, and this is no surprise, as apps are a major part of the appeal of smartphones as a whole.
As you can see, these three services complement each other brilliantly. Brand loyalty is important to a company like Apple, and millions of consumers are so used to the multimedia platform outlined above and this is a massive part of the appeal of Apple device like the iPhone 4S. It is also the reason why so many keep coming back and upgrading to the latest versions. Despite increasing competition from Android and Windows Phone powered devices, Apple is definitely here to stay as a major player in the smartphone market (and tablet market for that matter), and its multimedia ecosystem plays a large part in this.
