Anyone 2020 ???? I remember going back at that time when i got a brandnew galaxy mini to watch this The Verge iPhone 4s review.. i was just graduated from highschool at that time
I don't understand the people that talk trash about people that use certain phones in comments. Let people use whatever phone they want, it's not going to bother you any. This is a good review, so i'll be checking out other videos from you guys whenever I want to check out a new phone.
Man, just landed on this video kind of randomly as I was reminiscing about my prior gadgets. The screen may be smaller, but there's something really elegant and just plain perfect about how the iPhone 4/4S fits in the hand. Probably Apple's best phone design.
Loving these high production-value videos. It'll definitely help make The Verge stand-out from the myriad of other gadget blogs other there. Keep videos like these coming.
the web is full of "here's my face and my obnoxious thoughts" videos from people around the world, and it's nice to see a new approach to product review videos. it surely takes longer to edit, but the result is brilliant. i hope the reviews stay consistent with each writer's personality. that's what makes TIMN/TheVerge unique.
I got my first iphone (4S) a couple of days ago and I am in love. I have got it doing everything I want, so customisable. I choose the i4S because I didn't like the look of the the 5 and I you can only get the 5 on contract here in OZ. I am glad I held out all those years and tried numerous other phones/brands to finally realise what everyone is going on about. Samsung 3s was to big in my hand and a bit plasticy. The i4S is nice and solid, not to light not to heavy and just the right size.
I was really referring to not being able to connect a camera than expanding the memory. It wouldn't be hard to fill 32GB though. I didn't realise you can get an "Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit" (so what I said wasn't possible below is) but Googling it and you're expected to pay £25. Those are extra things to get lost too. I would love to know the logic in why Apple refuse to include one. I get why Flash isn't included. Basically I was just saying Flash vs. an SD card slot.
Get the iPhone 5 for larger and better screen. Also for performance. Also, letter boxes in movies are reduced. But, there's not a lot on the OS to use the extra screen space.
i have a question, since iphone always coming with new model so frequent is it worth buying it now??? or i need to wait for much newer and better model??? it just apple product is so expensive and i want a phone that i can use for a long time
Good video. I upgraded from my iPhone 4 mainly because of the upped storage capacity 64GB. I do notice the increased speed esp. since I have more free space. Hold outs for the iPhone 5 may not see it for another 18 months. I'm sure Steve Jobs selected from several conceptual designs before passing.
*I remember ditching my 3gs because I wanted an iPhone with a front camera. This is that iPhone **_with a selfie camera._** Many years passed, and I could not believe this iPhone was so tiny. iPhones have gone through many changes so much.*
Sorry, I'm new to smartphones, when you said switch, did you mean that u could switch a phone, or do just buy a new one? I probably alredy kno the answer, but i need a solid answer
need advice.. i was a 3gs user .. sold it like 4 months back.. now im in market for iphone again... i have option to get a used good condition factory unlocked iphone 4 or to pay 40$ more to get a good condition used gevey iphone 4S.. what phone should i choose?
For a phone who's biggest upgrade feature is the new processor, the review should have included benchmarks compared to the older phones on iOS5. Good review though.
so i am due to get my new phone this christmas and i am hoping to get the iPhone 4s, if any of you have it let me know what you think! i was comparing it to the samsung galaxy s3 which ranked higher then iPhone but some of the reviews it got were horrible!
@RandomPersian if you want to open a message, reply or add a reminder you don't need internet connection. but...if you ask for the weather or any question , you will need to turn your internet connection ON.
@Firestoner46 i suggest you wait for iphone 5, when it's out, don't buy yet, wait for iphone 5 S, when Apple release it, dont buy again because iphone 6 will come out. but then again don't buy iphone 6 because iphone 6 S will come out. by then there might be a built-in refrigerator with it, and im sure it'll be very handy.
Check the Apple Store. It's US$649; US$749; US$849; for 16, 32 and 64gigs. If you like the Nexus, then buy it. Nobody forcing anybody. But if you're implying that everyone should get the Nexus cause it got 16gigs for lesser price, that would be against consumer's choice, wouldn't it? The Prius have more mileage than a Ferrari for a lesser price tag. So, even though one can afford a Ferrari, one should always opt for a Prius?
this phone seems like a really cool phone.. but I really wished they would have improved the front facing camera for FaceTime. and in iOS I was hoping for a video wallpaper feature. maybe iOS 5.3 will have it
does the iphone 4s still better than the nexus 4? i'm thinking of getting the iphone 4s but having second thoughts because of the specification of the Nexus 4. can anyone help me decide ? thanks :)
waching from 2023, glad to see this video

Anyone 2020 ???? I remember going back at that time when i got a brandnew galaxy mini to watch this The Verge iPhone 4s review.. i was just graduated from highschool at that time
Man, my first iPhone. Bought it in 2011 and i was so happy lol. I still have it somewhere in a shoebox or something. Great memories.
I like the way he just gets to the point cuz I can't be watching 18 min videos all the time
How about now

I have been using a 10 year old green screened nokia for alot of years and I think i'm gonna spoil myself with this 4S!!! What an amazing device!
I have an iPhone 6 and I just bought a white iPhone 4S running iOS 6.. It's obviously not better than the 6, but i just love it..
Couldn't agree more!
Nice! I also have an iPhone 4S on iOS 6, and even prefer it over newer iPhones sometimes
thinking about upgrading from an iphone 11, should I?
Why oh why does The Verge pay for ads in 2014 that links to their iPhone 4S review from 2011?
They don't pay for ads they get paid for ads, it's called ad sense
@stuartwilliams1986 That's DIN Condensed dog.
For once, a great review: straight to the point, clear voice, good quality video, good points and real facts. Thanks!
this video has the ascetic of a video the was made this year
What camera did you use to record the review? Looks great.
Man, just landed on this video kind of randomly as I was reminiscing about my prior gadgets. The screen may be smaller, but there's something really elegant and just plain perfect about how the iPhone 4/4S fits in the hand. Probably Apple's best phone design.
My first iPhone, I do miss iOS 6 the Skeumorphism UX.

I don't know, hopefully soon!
in your opinion TheVerge black or white is better ?
Woah, really loving the high production value on the video. Can't wait to see what's ahead.
Thank you Steve jobs.
Is it good to buy iPhone 4S instead of 5? Are there so many HUGE differences and updates, or is 4S just fine?

Awesome review.. Does the iPhone 4s actually have a 'insert sim card' issue, or is it a rumor.
I got my first iphone (4S) a couple of days ago and I am in love. I have got it doing everything I want, so customisable. I choose the i4S because I didn't like the look of the the 5 and I you can only get the 5 on contract here in OZ.

I refuse to use SIRI, it creeps me out. But overall I love the phone.
loving the style of this review
debating on getting one??? is it worth it??
Cool video. What iPhone dock are they using? Not an official one is it? Looks great
I'm just going to wait 4 years and get one thats 2 years old used and it will still be amazing.
short, sweet, to the point. The Verge is awesome.
I subscribed. I really enjoy the way you did this review, a lot different then others.
Interesting fact; the camera module in the 4s is the same one used in the Xperia Arc. Which came out first.
I was really referring to not being able to connect a camera than expanding the memory. It wouldn't be hard to fill 32GB though.
I didn't realise you can get an "Apple iPad Camera Connection Kit" (so what I said wasn't possible below is) but Googling it and you're expected to pay £25. Those are extra things to get lost too.
I would love to know the logic in why Apple refuse to include one. I get why Flash isn't included.
Basically I was just saying Flash vs. an SD card slot.
wow.... I am loving the new video review format guys!!!! Keep them coming!
p.s. im super excited for the Verge launch!!
Love the new format of the videos. Only thing i can think of is maybe setting the Mic to be a tad bit louder. keep up the great work guys !
That's cool and all. But will it blend?
Get the iPhone 5 for larger and better screen. Also for performance. Also, letter boxes in movies are reduced. But, there's not a lot on the OS to use the extra screen space.
@TheIronPixie and I sincerely appreciate your kindness and being truthful.
i have a question, since iphone always coming with new model so frequent is it worth buying it now??? or i need to wait for much newer and better model??? it just apple product is so expensive and i want a phone that i can use for a long time
How did you get your hands on the 4[s] before today?
Good video. I upgraded from my iPhone 4 mainly because of the upped storage capacity 64GB. I do notice the increased speed esp. since I have more free space. Hold outs for the iPhone 5 may not see it for another 18 months. I'm sure Steve Jobs selected from several conceptual designs before passing.
Nice review. Short, simple and detailed.
Nice video style. I like the trippy beginning effect whatever it was.
*I remember ditching my 3gs because I wanted an iPhone with a front camera. This is that iPhone **_with a selfie camera._** Many years passed, and I could not believe this iPhone was so tiny. iPhones have gone through many changes so much.*
is this siri review or iPhone 4s review 😑
it was new back then so...
nice editing and review.very informative
Nice video, the video work was very professional, and the editing was well done, looks like it was a DSLR
Great review , very brief and doesnt drap on
My mom and dad got be the 4S today! I love it! Siri is awesome too^^
ill have mine by this week hopefully!
is it worth changing iphone4 to iphone4s .. just for siri ?
i really want to know
Very nice review! You should made more vids like this.
Such a simple and informative review. Thanks!
besides the physical change, there won't be a difference between the iphone 5 and 4S since the other changes are in the OS.
Sorry, I'm new to smartphones, when you said switch, did you mean that u could switch a phone, or do just buy a new one? I probably alredy kno the answer, but i need a solid answer
i still have a 3g so should i wait for iphone 5 or get the 4s
im getting mine within this month or next month!!!!!!!!so excited!
i have a Nokia N73 Music Edition for 7 years , should i buy the new iPhone 4S or what ?
need advice.. i was a 3gs user .. sold it like 4 months back.. now im in market for iphone again... i have option to get a used good condition factory unlocked iphone 4 or to pay 40$ more to get a good condition used gevey iphone 4S.. what phone should i choose?
And I still have one 😌
Same!!! 😊
I'll be getting mine next Saturday or Sunday
What about cases. Do they fit both models?
I am getting a 16gb iphone 4s for christmas, i cant wait. I am switching to this from a crappy toco lite
@okkp why didn't you wait to get a plan with it? you know you can get it for 199 with a plan right?
Great review! Short and informative.. Thanks
Hopefully it's in the mail tomorrow
i got a mac instead... was it a bad idea???
I have the iPhone 3GS and I love it but I want the 4s is it worth it ? 😝
@leonkevin
So, you decide not to upgrade your android phone one month after you buy it?
How did he get the iPhone 4s before the launch?
For a phone who's biggest upgrade feature is the new processor, the review should have included benchmarks compared to the older phones on iOS5. Good review though.
but will it blend?
so i am due to get my new phone this christmas and i am hoping to get the iPhone 4s, if any of you have it let me know what you think! i was comparing it to the samsung galaxy s3 which ranked higher then iPhone but some of the reviews it got were horrible!
Is thier any reason to get an Iphone 4s, does it do anything that the S3 and One x cant?
i hawe the iphone 3g should i go for iphone 4s or iphone 4
But Will it Blend?
simpel question-is this the best phone on the market???
@RandomPersian if you want to open a message, reply or add a reminder you don't need internet connection. but...if you ask for the weather or any question , you will need to turn your internet connection ON.
Does it come with a magnifying glass for the tiny screen?
Verrrrry well edited.
how much will it cost????
I'm definitely changing my N97 for this.
LOL. check inside the settings whether it's turned off or not.
I am getting an iphone 4 today i am so pumped!!!
I NEED THAT WALLPAPER! anyone have a link
@Firestoner46 i suggest you wait for iphone 5, when it's out, don't buy yet, wait for iphone 5 S, when Apple release it, dont buy again because iphone 6 will come out. but then again don't buy iphone 6 because iphone 6 S will come out. by then there might be a built-in refrigerator with it, and im sure it'll be very handy.
This man was ahead of his time
@TheBoymusic14 Siri is iPhone 4S only, and will probaby be fitted into future iOS devices. None of the previous devices will run it though..
I have a 3gs. I definitely wanna upgrade to this. But I want the 64 gig so im waiting till it drops in price
Check the Apple Store. It's US$649; US$749; US$849; for 16, 32 and 64gigs.
If you like the Nexus, then buy it. Nobody forcing anybody. But if you're implying that everyone should get the Nexus cause it got 16gigs for lesser price, that would be against consumer's choice, wouldn't it?
The Prius have more mileage than a Ferrari for a lesser price tag. So, even though one can afford a Ferrari, one should always opt for a Prius?
Can you take a video with the camera on the phone?
I'm getting mine within this month!
this phone seems like a really cool phone.. but I really wished they would have improved the front facing camera for FaceTime. and in iOS I was hoping for a video wallpaper feature. maybe iOS 5.3 will have it
does the iphone 4s still better than the nexus 4?
i'm thinking of getting the iphone 4s but having second thoughts because of the specification of the Nexus 4.
can anyone help me decide ? thanks :)
@okkp here in sweden they cost about 7000-8000 Swedish kronor and thats about 1000-1200 dollars
Ill think im gonna go with the s2
Very cool video format
