iPhone 4 v iPhone 4s

Has anybody had a iPhone 4 and now got a iPhone 4s

I'm looking at updating my iPhone 3 I'm just wondering if it's worth that extra 100?:approve:

Mate, join www.iphoneforums.net

Its free to join and there is literally hundreds of 4s reviews and comparisons

 

[Revels]

Yes. It is.

 

[DB.]

Just get the 4s. Will also be worth a little more come sale time.

 

[jenic]

4s is a bit faster, and siri is surprisingly useful.

 

[Dolan]

Ok guys cheers.

 

[Herr Flick]

Yes. It is.

has the 'Siri' hype worn off yet or is it actually a good day to day feature?

 

[Fletcher]

The 4s is slightly better IMO.

I use it about once a day id say.

Useful for setting alarms, reminders, odd texts, timers.

 

[AK]

Better once the location service works in the UK.

4S opens and switches apps quicker and the camera is exceptional for a phone but Siri is a gimmick and something to impress your friends with for 30s.

Anyone that doesn't feel a c*nt speaking to their phone is a c*nt.

Changing from a desire, i opted for a 4s. Dual core will hopefully equal longevity.

I wouldn't trade my 4 for a 4S. Siri isn't worth the £100+ I'd have to pay to get one.

I came from the 4, and it was worth the £250 upgrade.

Faster. Better camera. Siri (which I've used for sending texts at home/in the car).

Really? Don't go telling me that bye bye bank account

split views, my contract is out the end of this month ill just have to have a think about it
Thanks guys. i might just buy one from ebay then get a cheaper phone on contract and sell that.

Upgrading from a iPhone 3/3GS is definitely worthwhile, from a iPhone 4 not so much. If trying to decide between the 4 or 4S then the £100 premium for the 4S isn't huge so definitely worth paying.

 

[Dave Hester]

Think this is pretty much how most people feel about the 4s

I use Siri in my car a shed load. Works a treat and definitely a worth while function too

 

[sneeks]

Siri is handy in the car for reading sms messages to me, unfortunately trying to dictate a message to Siri while in the car is a waste of time.

Siri will be on the 4 at somepoint in the future no doubt. Sure someone has already done it.

Really? I've not had any problems.

Maybe it's your accent?

I upgraded to a 4S and ended up £40 in credit!

 

[C.J]

I upgraded to a 4S and ended up £40 in credit!

How? I sold my 4 for £250, then bought the 4S for £500.

 

[sneeks]

More than likely that is a factor along with road noise and mic quality from my bluetooth visor mounted speaker.

Does anybody know when the iPhone 5 is out ? is it round about this time next year. i might just wait for that.

ill see like i said the end of this month :rasp:

 

[Dave Hester]

No one will ever ever ever know when the iphone5 comes out until its launch just like the 4s

 

[DB.]

Here we go again

 

[Dolan]

Ok never mind

 

[spirez]

Just get the 4S. It will be worth £100 more if you decide to sell it on anyway so it's win/win.

I have the 4 and the Mrs has just got the 4S. There's not a massive difference between the too but the difference from a 3GS will be epic. The screen and camera alone are worth it in my opinion. And the better processor would make a fair difference to me. I play quite a few games on it and the 4 can tend to lag a bit sometimes.

Wait for the 5.. people have been doing that since last year lol.

 

[Dolan]

Haha then I might as wait till 5s or 6 :rasp:

 

[JD]

Gave my 4 to the OH and now seems very slow in comparison to my 4S. So if you can afford to, upgrade.

 

[Dolan]

Thanks JD im sure i will
