Apple iPhone 4S review: Fast 4ward

21 October 2011
The last thing you need is one that looks exactly like your ex. On a second thought, it's too early perhaps to end it. You two did look great together, your iPhone 4 and you. In fact you still do. iPhone 4S owners, this is between you and your phone's inner voice - Siri. iPhone 4 owners, this...

Anonymous, 19 Nov 2011No doubt iPhone 4S is fastest. Here are some popular iOS... moreFastest on what? Its 14mbps on HSDPA. The SGS2 bangs out 21. The OS may be faster but for pure 3G capability, its behind the top dogs. Also, why the hell would anyone get a phone for those games you mentioned? Street Fighter?!? What?! I have an xbox, ill stick to that thanks and use the phone for texts, calls, internet, emails and the odd App here or there.

      I think iPhone 4S RULES!!! no other phone can match iPhone. It will not be No.1 if it is not the BEST! the number of units sold out and high market demands indicates how a great device is...

            Anonymous, 02 Nov 2011Yup, because android really does multitasking, that is doin... moreAfter reading ur whole comment i feel as if u regretted buying ur droid and hardly defending it to make an impression that ur droid is worth buying.

            But whole point is different with iPhone.

            3GS performance is almost same as iphone 4 and like 30% slower than s2 or 4S .
            3GS also supports all updates even iOS 5.

            Most people say "512 MB Ram on 4S is low or bla bla"
            but question is "How much RAM are developers utilizing to make apps ?"
            Answer is most of developers still target 3GS which has 256 MB RAM .Because if u want more people to buy ur apps u must support older phones too along with new ones.

            U don't understand this.
            Nokia had 5 MP cameras right from 2007 and what they achieved ? its about usability.

            Camera doesn't depend on lenses and sensor alone.

            Good Processor + Decent Camera Sensor = Best quality.

            Good example :
            Car ziass lens + 3.2 MP 5800 express music quality vs 3.2 MP 3GS quality.

            3GS camera rocks and 5800 camera simply bad because processor can't handle good white balance and smoothness.
            So usability is what iPhone is meant for.

            iphone is not meant for flash and u still buy it and complain about flash = immature .

            Multitasking is another blame on apple.

            Try this on ur droid phone and tell me if it works ? ok ?
            1.Open Youtube app , start a video
            2.while keeping the video playing now open browser or launch a game
            3.switch back to youtube , ur video doesnt even load instead it stops and "repeat arrow" symbol.

            Is that true Multitasking ? haha lmao

            ur entire statement b4 is a fanboy statement totally.

            i used to hear lot about android and now u remind me of one of those fanboys who use "excuses" to blame other products to argue.

            u went along adobe's back shouting "Flash" and now they are also going apple's route (develop HTML 5 and ditch flash).

            u shouted "honeycomb" and said unique experience.
            Now ? ICS use same UI on tablets and phones.
            Apple did that in 2010 January itself (launch of iPad with same iPhone UI)
            using same UI on tablets and phones.
            Now Google is also following apple's route.

            u shouted "Open Source" .
            Now u must root device inorder to do anything like overclock or install custom ROM.
            is that open source ? lmao

            i think u must teach all about "android is very cool" and i already showed u how well android is with above description.

              As a matter of interest, the Australian consumer magazine Choice test of 17 mobiles, the iPhone 4 won for sensitivity (calls made at varying distances from mobile tower). Then the Atrix and then the Torch.

                @Androidfan: I don't really need "all features are available". What I need is "All features are not only available but also the best they are"

                              It's true that some people are having battery problem on iphone 4S. Apple is trying to fix it through an update in a few weeks.

                                It is weird why there is a genre called dice in the app store. SGS 2 has superamoled and it honestly looks awful with everything bluish the iphone 4s is mundane and boring as everyone has an iphone. in short there is no best phone but can you justify if the phone is worth the price.

                                        @Lybomber iphone 4s has the best audio quality and tons of accessories for music gears. Chatting is even better now that iPod people can send you messages on wifi through iMessage app. Look no farther, iPhone 4S has arguably the best 8MP camera on smartphones. For traveling, unlocked iphones will work anywhere with GSM.
