More Detail on the Verizon iPhone

Hey guys, this is M kids1, and I just wanted to make another video. I know we already have one online about the Verizon iPhone, so in the previous video, it was kind of like a news flash. In this, I'm going to be showing you more detailed information and just going over more detail.

So, uh, as you may know, today Verizon had an announcement, and they announced that there will now be an iPhone for Verizon. Now, well, the reason originally Apple wasn't using Verizon is, one, they have to change a lot of stuff, and it's not as easy as you might think to make an iPhone for Verizon. It's very expensive. But another thing is that they had a contract with AT&T.

So now, now that that's over, they can go to other networks. I think originally Apple's idea with AT&T is it was GSM. So when you got your GSM iPhone, it worked in other countries. Like, let's say you go to Europe; you'll probably be able to use your iPhone. Um, um, so that's probably, uh, their idea on that is so you can use GSM.

But now, you know, it's really time that they support another network, and Verizon is perfect. It's CDMA, which is a different type of technology, which, uh, I think pretty much only the U.S. uses. But it'll still be useful because a lot of Americans who have Verizon can't get iPhones, and they really want iPhones. So, uh, I think it'll help Apple sales out a lot and help Verizon sales out quite a bit.

Um, and this is also good for AT&T users because they'll have more people getting iPhones on Verizon, and they don't have to worry about their network quite, quite as much. And you know, it's really, um, it's good for both sides. So yeah, Verizon iPhone— that's basically what we expected, what we knew was going to happen.

Now, for the cool part, Apple on the iPhone in general is releasing a software feature where you can create a Wi-Fi hotspot, just like Verizon MiFi. And I actually have reviewed the Verizon MiFi; you can check out that video— I'll put a link in the description for that. But the iPhone for Verizon, at least, and I don't know if the hardware is built into the existing iPhone, you'll probably be able to do it on AT&T as well, but uh, that's only if AT&T allows it.

So you'll be able to create a Wi-Fi network. Obviously, you can set a password, set the name, etc., and use it as a MiFi for the 3G network you're on. And if you're on AT&T, then, um, you might be missing out on this feature. It took AT&T a long time to let tethering on in general, so I don't know—AT&T is quote unquote considering, you know, they're looking it over.

So I don't know how high of a chance there will be that you can do this on AT&T. But if you can't, that's really bad for AT&T because all these Verizon users will be getting, you know, the iPhone, and people will be switching to Verizon, which will be good for those of us who don't want to tether anyway because we'll have less people flooding the AT&T network.

But yeah, as you'll recall, like, it might have been last year that in New York, there were so many iPhone users using, you know, 3G technology that it flooded their network, and no one could use their phone effectively. So it's good that there are now multiple networks to get an iPhone. The popular phone now is distributed like it should be.

But anyway, if you get a Verizon iPhone, I don't think you'll be able to use it in other countries that use GSM for their carriers, just because—or you won't be able to make calls, at least, because it's CDMA. So I don't know. It's not a standard like GSM is, and that's why I kind of like AT&T more, because it's a standard. You know, a lot of people travel a lot, so it's better to have an AT&T iPhone for that.

So anyway, that's just the Verizon iPhone—some news on that. Um, so thanks for watching! M kids1, subscribe, and goodbye!
