The iPhone 3GS, introduced in 2009, focused on speed and performance enhancements, featuring a faster processor and improved graphics. It was the first iPhone to offer video recording capabilities and voice control, allowing users to interact with their devices using spoken commands. The 3GS also offered increased storage options, making it a reliable and versatile smartphone for users who needed a balance of power and usability. Although its design remained similar to the iPhone 3G, the internal improvements made it a more responsive and capable device.
