    I can’t believe I’m writing this so many months later but for the record the “little hole” I’m referring to at 3:03 isn’t the microphone. I’m making a joke about not knowing what the headphone jack is.
    Sorry to those who got it but I’m still receiving a ton of comments about this lol so I figured I’d clear it up. Side note, if you want to be a great person you should go follow me over on social media! My ego needs a boost. (@91_Tech)

    • @zacharyshaul
      @zacharyshaul 5 лет назад +14

      Yes. I really don't want to carry around a phablet. I have an S7 which is a perfect size. 5.1 inches, still great camera, great resolution but the battery is okay. Phones should be a little chunkier which would allow room for a bigger and more efficient battery so flagship smartphones can have awesome battery life just like some budget phones (performance sucks on those phones but battery life is top-notch). The 4s body with an Xs screen would be amazing. Maybe even a 5s/SE body with a full screen. That phone you've mentioned really needs to happen. One can only dream...

I am currently a jailbreak user, and the 4S was the only phone that I was fine using without a jailbreak. Yes, it essentially became garbage after the release of iOS 9, but ios 7-8. My only complaints with it at the time was the weird placement of the headphone jack, compared to where it was placed on the iPhone 5 and 5s, and getting *good* replacement chargers was, and still is, quite the challenge

BUT I was able to compare it to another 4s and it turns out my screen is discoloured and my cameras are grainy so I figured it would be too frustrating to deal wth.

    I still use my iPhone 4s as a daily driver phone. I can't afford an upgrade right now but would love one. Yeah it is difficult to use but it is still usable. And yes the network still works HSPA plus. And yes you can unlock it and go on T-Mobile. There is a trick that you can do to get the app to work. Look up a very old version of iTunes that has the iTunes App Store. Make sure you can still login and log into it. Look up an app on your iPhone it Hass to say this app needs iOS 10. When it says that search that exact app you searched for on your phone in iTunes and then click download once you download it from the old version of iTunes App Store and it will immediately download to your iPhone. That's a helpful trick that I found to keep your iPhone 4s running. Now the app won't update if it needs iOS 10 but you'll be able to use the app with less features because it hasn't updated in forever.

    Hey buddy, I scrolled past this video and was curious how others did it. I've been living with a 4s for over 2 years now and I've figured I might as well try to adapt. I run IOS 9.3.5 and RUclips for sure is my slowest app, in fact, this comment will probably take a good few minutes to post. I can never borrow a charger from anyone which is pretty inconvenient, and when using a friends phone I struggle with even unlocking the phone, as I'm used to swiping. I make all my calls and text messages through iMessage, as I don't have a SIM card. It is on its last legs, with my home button torn off and the entire back is shattered. Just to be clear, I use the 4s not by choice, but because I'm a kid with parents who don't just go off and buy their kid a new phone everytime they need a new one. Just wanted to give a little insight on what it's like really living with it. Nice video!

    last year when I had a iPhone 5s it got water damaged and I had to use a 4s on iOS 9. Honestly the most slow annoying thing ever. The battery life was trash and the apps crashed all the time. I had to use it for like 6 months!! I have an iPhone 7 now tho so it’s ok😂💜😭🤦🏼‍♀️

      Pingky Dbno yeah I’m on the 7 atm - using the 4s in 2018 was the worsttttt. I had to use it until June 2018 and I just remember apps like snapchat RUclips and Instagram constantly crashing. The only app I found okay was netflix aha x
