Why did apple under-clock the iPhone 3gs' CPU speed from 833MHz to 600MHz?

I have read the tech-specs for the Samsung ARM A8 Cortex Processor, and it says the processor speed is 833MHz. It also stated that it can handle 720p video recording and playback at 30fps. I don't care if it it was for battery purporses. It want REAL answers from Apple. I have the tech-specs photo below. Thanks in advance,

Then you're really making a big mistake posting here.  This is a user to user technical support forum.  Apple doesn't respond here, nor will they likely ever respond to your question.

    Why did apple screw up the discussion forum format?

    Hi,
    Apple in this case has to rely on what software is out there that can handle the amount of Traffic that these boards get.
    This is from the Brows Option the selecting People in the box
    Note the Number
    At the Launch of the new software this was at just over 2,250,000 and has now topped 2,300,000
    That is well over 50,000 people joining in just 2 weeks.
    Jive are the only real players in this market.
    To some extent the software is a one size fits all, much like the previous software was.
    We got used to the look and the Folder type layout of the Previous software.
    We ignored the foibles of where things were placed.
    Things are somewhat double edged in my view.
    I post mostly about iChat.
    I don't like that the Leopard and Snow Leopard forums that were are now "Refine the List"/Tag led searching to read specific threads. (not to mention that returning to "Dicussions" loses the "refinement").
    On the other hand those same threads and anwsers are now a lot more viewable in the OS forums than the subforums of before.
    As a regular poster I use a couple of Boiler plate things for a welcome message and my Signature.
    Some were made with TextExpander and included the HTML code to sttyle things slightly.
    These no longer work without going to the HTML editor.
    Posting link used to use the BBCodeXtra add-on to Firefox but this action is now included in the Regular and Advanced Editor. 
    That means I equipped myself and used things to get around shortcomings of the old software which is some cases I either don't need or need to learn the new way.
    I am sure the Style will morph as we go along.
    Of course some of this relies on what exactly you mean by:-

  • Does apple still make the iPhone 3GS?

    Are they still making the iPhone  3GS? If I send in my iPhone 3GS because it won't charge are they gonna send me another iPhone 3GS?

    The 3GS is still available for warranty replacement.

  • Why did Apple take away the ability to shuffle videos?

    A firmware update about a year ago took this feature from my 5th gen video iPod; I was hoping other iPods didn't suffer from the same affliction, but lo and behold, my 3rd gen Nano does the same thing. If you set Shuffle to "Songs" or "Albums", the iPod will only play one video in a playlist, then stop. If you turn Shuffle off, and put Repeat to "All" you can play all the videos in a playlist, but only in order.
    Can anyone think of a way around this, short of manually doing the shuffle yourself in iTunes? Or alternatively, anyone know how to contact Apple techs and get this feature put back?
    Thanks
    Paul

  • Why did apple leave out the estended screen

    why does mountain lion not utilize all my 27" screen when using the web? the old lion had an extended screen setting which operated well
    can this be in a future update? If not, looks like I've purchased a 27" computor that is usless for what I thought I was getting.
    can this computor be taken back to Lion??

    why does mountain lion not utilize all my 27" screen when using the web? the old lion had an extended screen setting which operated well
    If you are referring to full screen, it's still there in Mountain Lion. Go to the View menu and choose Enter Full Screen.

  • Why did Apple OS loose the ability to adjust load order of login items

    In OS X.3.9 I was able to adjust the load order of log in items.
    I can't do this in OS X.4.11. I would like to adjust two items Mozy and Yahoo! Widgets so that they load last. Although all my log in items including them load they hesitate while Mozy and Yahoo widgets load. I would like to make Yahoo widgets load very last and Mozy next to last.

    Another approach which might work would be to delete some, most, or all of your current set of login items and replace them with a single Automator workflow, one set up to open individual applications in a predetermined order.
    The workflow would be comprised solely of separate *Launch Application* actions (from Automator's Finder library) and might look like this:
    1) *Launch Application* -- click the popup button and select the first application you'd like to open.
    2) *Launch Application* -- select the next application you'd like to open.
    3) *Launch Application* -- 3rd app.
    4) *Launch Application* -- etc, etc, until you reach the last application, which could be Yahoo! Widgets.
    From Automator's File menu select Save As > File Format: Application, and add the saved Automator applet to your login items.
    Good luck.

  • Why did apple stop making the 40gb photo ipod?

    ????

    The cost differential between the different sized hard drives decreased and, to simplify the product line, the 40GB iPod Photo was discontinued.

  • HT4972 why cant i update my sons iphone 3gs to ios5 from ios4? it wont let me download him any apps?

    my sons iphone3gs has ios4 and it wont let me download any apps i need to update it to ios5 but dont know how ?!?!

    IF you actually have a 3GS, follow the instructions in the article from which the question was posted and you will be able to update to iOS6.
    If you have a 3G, iOS 4.2.1 is as high as it can go.

  • Apple shop changed my iphone 3gs today, got home and cannot join my wifi. both my mac and ipad is working on wifi. tried rebooting, resetting still doesnt hold the wifi, it's there for a sec then its not connected.help please?

    Hi,
    Apple shop exchanged my iphone 3gs today. got home but it doesnt pick up the wifi. first the correct supplier appears then it says not connected.
    both my mac and ipad is working on wifi (so did the previous phone) i ve tried rebooting, tried reset supplier...nothing works. can someone help please?
    thanks

    Yes, they should be able to verify that WiFi is working properly. If I just got a new phone & it didn't work perfectly, right out of the box, before I started restoring or whatever, I'd be right back where I got the phone.

  • Why did Apple omit the Panorama feature in Camera on the Ipad, when they did the IOS6 update?

    Why did Apple omit the Panorama feature in Camera on the Ipad, when they did the IOS 6 Update? They included this feature on the iPod touch (5th gen) so why not on the iPad?

    I was on vacation in a national park and saw people using their iPads as a video camera...one of them standing in the  middle of a 'river' (read really large stream) at the time.
    I'm going to also go with the supposition of it being a different camera and probably different video handling processor. The iPhone is quite far ahead of the iPad camera wise, so probably has better protocols in place to handle images, especially something as complex as the 'live photo stitch' of the panorama.
    many existing cameras take what the panorama was, a 'photo stitch' where mulitple side by side photos are stitched together into one large panorama. This just appears to do it 'live' instead of individual shots that need to be processed on a comptuer to make the panorama.

  • Why did Apple choose O2 as their carrier in the UK????

    Why did Apple choose O2 to be the carrier in the UK when their 3G network is truly awful?
    I get 1 bar of signal on 3G most of the time
    Wouldn't it have been more useful for Apple to sign with 3 as they are the main 3G carrier in the UK?

    I am using my Italian, unlocked, iPhone here in UK with Orange. Coverage is mostly OK and orange has got EDGE when 3G is not available.
    I have heard funny stories about O2 coverage but that has nothing to do with the iPhone itselfit is just the network.
    I found the T-Mobile site very useful where you can punch 3 postcodes where you mostly are and it will tell you what data and voice coverage you have.
    O2 has a similar service but I am told by fellow iPhone users that is not reliable.
    Not very useful to have unlimited data if you don't have coverage but you can pop into a cafe and they for sure will have Wifi that you can use.

  • Why did Apple raise its prices overnight by $200 on the iMac, including refurbished models.

    Other than greed and trying to narrow the spread between the price of the old iMacs and the just-announced new iMac, why did Apple raise its prices overnight by $200 on the iMac, including refurbished models? Their existing product component costs didn't increase overnight.

    I was "literal" because I quoted the ToU. Did you read the ToU you agreed to when you established an account? Available here:
