iPhone 4S - Read post #1 before asking questions

Siri is a smart arse -

Sold my 4 for £350, when I bought it in May I got £150 cashback. Thats covered the cost of the 4s outright, and my contract only has 12 months to go, and is better than the current offerings.

 

[The Boosh!]

My 4gs doesn't appear to have Siri. When i hold the home button I just get 'voice control' blue screen thing. Do you need to switch it on?

 

[welshname]

yep in settings, i think its under accesibility

 

[Brian]

Siri doesn't really understand what I'm saying :dapprove:

Same

I don't think it was ever going to be as easy as it appears in the advert for it tbh with all the differences in accents etc. Pretty cool though!

No, it's just seen Monty Python.

Just wish that Siri would work for businesses in the UK. Loving the phone so far. Massive step up from my 3GS as expected.

Or the couple of whacks of your desk.

ahhh

This is a bit of a downer...!

[h=2]Siri: Maps and Local Search for International Customers Coming in 2012[/h]Friday October 14, 2011 7:58 am PDT by Arnold Kim

As we noted on our iPhone launch article, international iPhone 4S users are noticing that Siri won't provide them with Map or local business search information. Those features were demoed by Apple during the keynote but are limited to the U.S. market only.

Apple's Siri FAQ (via @dujkan) reveals that international support for those features won't be available until 2012:
Maps and local search support will be available in additional countries in 2012.

So whats the overall verdict??

Is the 4S really worth the extra money??

Once I sell my iPhone 4 I will be around £40 better off!

Siri seems slightly argumentative and sarcastic

I'm taking my bumper back. Says it fits the 4gs on the apple site but the mute button doesn't sit in the hole right meaning I can't mute my phone properly.

I wouldn't mind if it was off the market but if you're paying 20 odd quid for one you want it to fit properly.

^ Same here

I said to the O2 blokes about this and they were adamant it was the same as the 4, I didn't bother arguing.
My speck case just about clears the mute button though, so I'm happy with that.

It's weird though, almost as no one has realized moving the mute button has even happened and ruined the compatibility of a lot of cases.

I've got mine and confused no end.

LOL!

I'm a noooooob!

 

[cafcross]

I've had a case off my mate and had to cut a small bit out so it fits okay.

The place I went weren't aware that there was any difference until I showed the
, and now they're making an emergency order to get 4GS specific ones in.

 

[Ollieeee]

On the subject of cases, anyone recommend any good ones? Want something fairly unobtrusive

 

[imprezaworks]

Look in the what phone cases thread, I've just bought one, superb. oh and my phones just turned up lol and i was expecting it monday. Will get it all setup tomo

 

[Rob R26r]

I personally wouldn't bother with a case as they have only ever damaged the phone where dust and dirt get trapped in it. I even had my original 4 replaced for free because of the damage the Apple bumper caused. Much better to go naked

 

[Millsy]

sena ultra slim, doesn't matter if its a 4 or a 4S either

Try saying 'I love you' to Siri - and also ask it why the chicken crossed the road.

I was expecting to see loads of people wanking over their 4Ss in here, but not many people seem to have got them yet.

 

[jenic]

Biggest difference over my 4 I have noticed is the signal strength. Getting 2 bars of 3G where previously I had none earlier tonight. Much much improved, which is excellent.

It all feels quicker too, but so does my ipad since upgrading to ios5.

SIRI is cool, told it to remind me something when i got home, turned onto my street and felt it vibrate in my pocket, brilliant.

Will make way for my 3GS lol

 

[AK]

SUCH an amazing upgrade over the 3GS.

 

[tonksy26]

Cool little feature I just found. Select (highlight) some text and then u can get the phone to speak back to you what u wrote. A good 1 is 'lolololololololol'.

You need to turn this feature on. Go on settings, general, accessibility, then turn speak selection on.

 

[Spiezels]

Hiya! Massive upgrade from that. s***s got edges y0!

AK PM me about your flat, location, price etc.

Wanna get info on London prices and s**t.
