If you are considering upgrading your iPhone to a newer model, Mike Heller and Chris Pinnock made a video that will help you decide: a no-prisoners speed race between the original Jesusphone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4.
If you are going to buy the obvious winner, you should also consider our review and remember to order the free bumper that will avoid the antenna problem. [TUAW]

Wednesday, July 28, 2010 at 10:05 AMIt’s kinda the reason that I went for the Galaxy S instead of waiting for the iPhone 4 to upgrade my 3gs. Sure it’s a little faster and the screen is a little better and the camera… well ok. the camera is heaps better, but it’s practically the same phone. I still use and love my 3gs.

on the other hand, you’d be crazy NOT to from a 3G, specially if your going into another contract anyway.
that being said, its worth remembering that the iphone 4′s screen IS also 4 times as many pixels. I don’t know how many of those apps took advantage of the higher res, but it is good to see it has simply taken it in it’s stride, especially as it uses the same GPU as the 3GS as a base.
