With modifications in terms of design, battery durability and resolution, Apple has unveiled next version of its wonder gadget. iPhone 4 has been launched by CEO Steve Jobs during annual conference of Apple for software developers in San Fransisco on Monday.

iPhone 3G, the popular device from the stable of Apple which debuted last year had compelled users to go mad at its fascinating features and astute technology. Now this improvised model iPhone 4 will be available from June 24th.

The costs of this new device have been set at $199 and $299 for 16GB and 32GB respectively. The phone will come in consolidation with AT&T contract.

iPhone 4 operates its functionality on iOS4, the latest software developed by Apple for its mobiles. The software enables the device to run more than one program simultaneously. The Apple iPhone 4 features FaceTime, which supports video calling, and Apple's new Retina 960×640 pixelsdisplay, the highest resolution display ever built into a phone, according to the company. In addition, HD video recording, Apple's A4 processor, a 3-axis gyro and up to 40% longer talk time – in an all-new design of glass and stainless steel. Apple added that the new iPhone is the thinnest smartphone in the world, at 9.3 millimeters.

The previous iPhone was about 12 millimeters, or nearly half an inch. It is getting a camera on the front that could be used for videoconferencing, in addition to a five-megapixel camera and a flash on the back. It can shoot high-definition video, catching up to some other smart phones.

The display on the new iPhone remains 3.5 inches (8.9 centimeters) diagonally, but Jobs said it can show four times as many pixels - the individual colored dots that make up an image - as the previous screen.
