Globe Brings iPhone 4 to the Philippines

Last September 24, Globe Telecom announced that it will launch the iPhone 4 in the Philippines with a range of Globe plans designed for iPhone customers.  Wow!  I’m sure a lot of Filipinos out there have already registered online at the Globe website to get their own units at the exclusive launch today at Makati Shangri-La & New World Hotels.

My best friend Christina is actually one of them, she will be claiming her 1st iPhone (finally!) later at 3PM!  I’ll surely be able to play with it when we see each other next week hehehe 😛

Globe Telecom executives’ has this to say about the new iPhone 4:

• Globe President & CEO Ernest Cu – “Customers will enjoy a superior mobile experience with iPhone 4 on Globe’s high-quality network and wide array of fully customizable plans.“
• Globe Consumer Business Head Peter Bithos – “We are very excited to deliver iPhone 4 to Globe customers. Our customers want the best in innovation and personalization and we are delivering that with the revolutionary iPhone 4.”

What’s with iPhone 4 that everyone has been so excited about?  Everyone seems to want to have one just like when the iPad came out last May 2010.

The iPhone 4 has amazing features that we just can’t pass up.  Facetime, which finally grants us our long request for Apple to include video calling on our phones.  Way cool, right?  Wait, there’s more!  iPhone 4 features a 5 megapixel camera w/ LED flash & HD video recording.  Now, for nonprofessional photographers, you only need your iPhone and you get a phone, camera & video camera, what else do you need? 😀

The newest version of iPhone also has a new design of glass & stainless steel and included in the new design is the fact that it is now the thinnest smartphone in the world.  For current iPhone users like me, we are well-aware that iPhone 4 comes with iOS4 which includes over a 100 features.  You can check my previous post about my top 5 things about iOS4, I’ve written there the things that I really love with the newest version of the world’s most advanced mobile platform 😉
