CUPERTINO, CA. (NEWS1130) – Apple has unveiled its first product since former CEO Steve Jobs stepped down in August. The new A5 chip iPhone 4S will be seven times faster thanks to its dual processor.

The new phone will also include an eight megapixel camera, voice recognition technology, and will do 1080P HD video recording. You can also download data twice as fast.

The iPhone 4S will run faster and has new mobile software that can sync content wirelessly, without having to plug an iPhone to a Mac or Windows machine.

While the iPhone is the world’s most popular smartphone, Google’s Android is the more widely used software.

Apple also demonstrated iCloud, a new service for storing files like pictures and music on Apple’s remote servers. That means they can be accessed through iPads, iPhones and Macs, and
mobile devices no longer have to sync up to a computer.

The 4S is available in Canada Oct. 14.
