The iPhone 3GS, stylized as iPhone 3G🅂,[a] is a smartphone that was developed and marketed by Apple Inc. It is the third generation of the iPhone and the successor to the iPhone 3G. It was unveiled on June 8, 2009[6] at the WWDC 2009, which took place at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.

This iPhone is named "3GS" where "S" stood for Speed (Phil Schiller had mentioned it in the launch keynote).[7] Improvements include performance, a 3-megapixel camera with higher resolution and video ability, voice control,[8] and support for 7.2 Mbit/s HSDPA downloading (but remains limited to 384 kbps uploading as Apple had not implemented the HSUPA protocol).[9] It was released in the United States, Canada, and six European countries on June 19, 2009,[10] in Australia and Japan on June 26,[11][12] and internationally in July and August 2009.

The iPhone 3GS runs Apple's iOS operating system. It was succeeded as Apple's flagship smartphone by the iPhone 4 on June 24, 2010. At the same time, an 8 GB model of the iPhone 3GS was released, discontinuing the 16 and 32 GB models,[13] the 8 GB 3GS continued in production until September 2012 when the iPhone 5 was announced.
