I bought the 4a right after it released. It's been 4 years since... Although I could get a new phone at anytime I choose, I haven't changed a handset in the last 4 years & I think I've really gotten attached to this amazing phone. Always comes thorough & never crashes! (:
@Aksiyon Bizde yeah, 4s on iOS 9 is very slow. Thankfully, we still are able to downgrade it to iOS 6.1.3 :) it’s fast as hell on iOS 6 (maybe even faster than iPhone 11 on iOS 13)
it's still crazy to me to think we're at the point where we can have a 2.4 f-stop in a phone this small. This thing looks incredible, can't wait for mine to be delivered.
@shanegaming I agree and the iphone 5 is like the same size as my ipod 5g even though I love my iPod touch 5g I wanted a 4g more cuz my 5g is really long
Still have and still using this amazing phone up to now :) I bought it in November 2011 and until now it's still works fine.. Only thing is that it gets slower each time I update for the new iOS version, but overall it's a worth for investment! Not bad for 660€ for four years :)
Nov 24, 2022. So much memories… good times… a more naive era… without today’s Instagram, TikTok, and the form of social media we have to day that has dominated everything… As a tech and Apple enthusiast, I think that era (2008-2012) was the peak of how interesting technology could be. It was those times you were watching technology have so much potential, devices improve so much year over year, and people caring more about actual features and less about just social media. Nowadays, devices have found their peak in development and improvements, and people are not even care for the features anymore… We have so amazing devices, with cameras that can even be rival to actual cinema cameras in some extent, with displays that have perfected the viewing experience in any possible way, and with software smarter and more intuitive than ever before, but people are just recording low quality vertical 15" videos and uploading them to platforms such as TikTok to “fast-food” consume them. That’s the biggest utilization of consumer technology right now. Back then we used to dream… Now we just live a cold, fast-food life.😢
+SM2ooo Not certain about the points made but ,if anyone else wants to uncover how to use an iphone basics try Panlarko Simple iPhone Planner(do a google search ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got great results with it.
What a gorgeous phone. I have just purchased my first iphone...4S. So smooth everything comes together so easily, apps wise. I love how solid and weighty it is, although I could see if you dropped it, it would pretty much shatter. Other thing is I don't have big fingers but why do I keep hitting the wrong character. I am glad I held out on the iphone because now I just know what everyone has been going on about. Was considering Samsung gal 3 but to big and quite plasticy. Iphone is so solid.
After almost 8 years, mine works very well. Battery is nice after all those years. I have the original battery and i order a second one to see how it will performs. I will keep the original battery btw. Didint have many phones that works that well for 8+ years. RUclips is playing very well, i can play many games, i can take some good pictures and videos and i like the one of the most unique styles of every phone that is out there.
iOS felt just as polished and smooth back then as it feels today in 2023. Gotta give it to Jobs.... He wasn't kidding when he said desktop class mobile. Android on the other hand felt half baked in its gingerbread days. I've cream sandwich was a game changer for android and now it's come leaps and bounds since those days.
couldnt agree more. 4 & 4S still the best design. got mine last month 64gb for 160$ definitely refurbished..but i dont care, just use it as secondary phone and it still awesome.
The iPhone 4s screen is 3.5". i say go for the A5 if you are able to get it activated in your country, but if your looking for something that might not be let go anytime soon, i say go for the iPhone, you can find an unlocked one on ebay for $100. hope this answered your question!
This was a common problem because of a bug in iOS 5. It was fixed in the iOS 5.1.1 update. The iPhone 4S was never known for its good battery life, either.
I can't wait to get this, my first apple product, it was either between this or an HTC Design, and well Siri made up my mind. True if you have the Iphone 4 you feel ripped off if you were to buy this model but for people like me that this is going to be their first, well then this is a great choice to start out with.
I am getting this phone. This is going to be my very first smartphone which I am very excited about. I got my first cell phone when i was 16 and that was a very basic phone. I am now 24 It was mom's idea since i was the only one in our entire family without one. :)
I got my 4s with Straight Talk. It is better than Sprint and is provided by Tracfone Wireless, but runs off of AT&T towers for 45+ a month. The phone is great itself.

i use this phone all the time to message my friends on skype and message my brothers via sms. i upgraded from a flip-phone that could only take pictures in 320x240 and only had like 256mb of space but with the iphone 4s i can take pictures in hd cause of the 8mp camera, 3g speeds, hd video, a retina display, and a 16gb hard drive!!!!!!
I have iPhone 4 and really I just don't think anything past that feels like it is worth getting. I have had my 4 for 2 months and never have I felt like I wish I had a newer rendition. Seriously. My friend Chris has 5 and he honestly can't tell me what's better. And the speed difference is entirely negligible. I'm satisfied with my 4.
iPhone 5... The back isn't glass, it's more like aluminum so it doesn't crack as easily... AND DAMN! I'm 13 and I don't get an iPhone until I'm 16 and I have a job... At 11, I got a touch screen phone, just for texting and stuff... so I don't use my phone a lot... And 64GB is A LOT of money... So you're pretty lucky. Take care of that phone.
Im so addicted to watching thses review now because in a week. im getting a iPhone 4s and i think this one is the best so far. Hey, People, Is the 4s nice? Like on your opinion? :3
This is a giant upgrade, way better graphics processor for gaming, much better processor, the screen is a little better, antenna is fixed. People don't give it credit
i want the iphone 4s ever since i learned more about it it looks like a cool phone, 1080p video recording for a phone i have to say that's pretty good.
The big thing then was small screens. The big thing now is big screens. You could easily say the same thing for what it is made of. The big thing with iPhone's then, was glass. The big thing now is what they are made of now (plastic or metal or something like that, I don't actually know)
Apple does say that the battery needs to break in and battery life will be extended after about a week or so after a new purchase. Im not impressed with the phones battery life but it could get better
.............what? you should be grateful either way! iPhone's are so expensive, be happy that you get one because a lot of people can't afford one. when i was 11, I only had a jump rope and checkers to play with... you're so lucky!

I really miss the old iOS, Steve Job's OS. It's beautiful. I think the couple 4S + iOS6 is the most beautiful. New flat design does not look as good.
They’re bringing back the flat block design this year.

same and tbh I'm proud it's a great phone. yeah its small but who cares.
Me tooo ؛)
me too
sexiest phone ever.
still having one 4s and this phone still rocks
le Art It won’t rock anymore.
@Aksiyon Bizde lol, I still rock with 4s in 2020
Саша Лобанов Mine is dead, the battery has disconnected from the motherboard. And it was too slow. But I’am happy that you still can use your phone!
@Aksiyon Bizde yeah, 4s on iOS 9 is very slow. Thankfully, we still are able to downgrade it to iOS 6.1.3 :) it’s fast as hell on iOS 6 (maybe even faster than iPhone 11 on iOS 13)
Саша Лобанов I tried to downgrade to iOS 6.1.3 before it was dead. But I couldn’t do it. I agree it is good on iOS 6 and runs perfect.
it's still crazy to me to think we're at the point where we can have a 2.4 f-stop in a phone this small. This thing looks incredible, can't wait for mine to be delivered.
Did you get it
watching in april 2016...miss old ios 6 and that beautiful design of iphone 4 and 4s :)
4s is the best iphone
Yes it is!!!!
Yep I see no reason for 5 just a bigger screen and it's like 2 seconds fast then the 4s
@shanegaming I agree and the iphone 5 is like the same size as my ipod 5g even though I love my iPod touch 5g I wanted a 4g more cuz my 5g is really long
What the f*ck are you talking about??? This phone is crap compared to Android phones

I've cream sandwich was a game changer for android and now it's come leaps and bounds since those days.
What a beautiful phone. Never paid much attention to it until recently when I got my SE. The 6 line looks like vomit. Apple design died with Steve
couldnt agree more.
4 & 4S still the best design.
got mine last month 64gb for 160$ definitely refurbished..but i dont care, just use it as secondary phone and it still awesome.
rip steve and apples good design
1God Not only the design but also the quality died with Steve.
It lives on in the iPhone SE.
Looking to get a iphone 4s. What size is the phone and screen. Choice between this or Samsung Galaxy A3 or A5. Which phone is best???
The iPhone 4s screen is 3.5". i say go for the A5 if you are able to get it activated in your country, but if your looking for something that might not be let go anytime soon, i say go for the iPhone, you can find an unlocked one on ebay for $100. hope this answered your question!
See THe BATTERY JUST DRAINED IN 16:11 MINUTES.....
get a new battery.
do you mean the vid because he does cut frame

Such an incredibly thorough review - VERY useful, thank you!
Are you still alive???
Who's watching in 2024
I have one and I love it! Only problem I have is that Verizon does not offer the 4G but my friend is with AT&T and they offer 4G.
Getting mine at walmart for 97¢
ONE DOLLAR?! I THINK YOU MEAN 100...
What an iconic phone. Best smartphone in the world! So glad I'm getting one in 2 weeks!!!
What phone you are using now?
@@MayankKumar-ge7tb still the 4S
That Siri thing is funny, yes, but come on, have you ever seen someone speaking to its phone in public? No one does that ;)
... Yeah phone calls
Everyone does this now lol
Does it include imovie or do you have to buy it?
Has the battery update actually made a difference?
I'm getting this for my 12th birthday in 8 days and its my first phone. I'm sooo excited!
I can't wait to get this, my first apple product, it was either between this or an HTC Design, and well Siri made up my mind. True if you have the Iphone 4 you feel ripped off if you were to buy this model but for people like me that this is going to be their first, well then this is a great choice to start out with.
should I get the 4s in 2016?....I won't use it for gaming because I have a console.
How could we able to know that there's a reminder to do on the notifications bar if the icon doesn't stay at there?
Nice video. I will be getting my 4s at the beginning of may. I can't wait!!!
Is it good?? Im getting one soon
I'm getting mine soon should I get black or white
mine just got sent i hope to get it for christmas, it would be a christmas miracle!
Almost 3 years later, and it's still a great phone!

Wow, can't wait for the launch of this smart, cutting edge phone

after yearsss of wanting an iphone, ive finally saved up enough money!
Can you start the iPhone without a SIM? Can you download apps without a SIM? And when you do put your SIM card in nothing will change?
Im so addicted to watching thses review now because in a week. im getting a iPhone 4s and i think this one is the best so far. Hey, People, Is the 4s nice? Like on your opinion? :3
Coming back 10 years later I see how far we've come lol
Should I buy the 4s or wait for the new iPhone?
Feeling so Nostalgic 🥲 It took me 11 Years to Buy my 1st iPhone 📱 that is iPhone 12 128Gig. That too from my own earning..
What about the battery life compared to iphone 4?
exactly, i love 3.5" screen. it makes a phone very comfortable in ur hand. firm grip & also easy to use all features
Best damn phone I owned. Durable despite the glass back. Took 25 drops to crack it.
Miss the small size of iphone 4s,one handed use was so easy with it!
This is a giant upgrade, way better graphics processor for gaming, much better processor, the screen is a little better, antenna is fixed. People don't give it credit
Just got mine :) Thanks for the review, it really persuaded me to get this
i want the iphone 4s ever since i learned more about it it looks like a cool phone, 1080p video recording for a phone i have to say that's pretty good.
I have a galaxy s3 but I want to get a iphone 4s .. is it worth it
Wow what an amazing review! Great job man!
I've been an android user since 2011 and I'll be getting 4s this coming December it is worth it in 2014?? Now it comes the new 6. 😔
what i hate about it is the samll display screen 3.5 inch for real ?
The big thing then was small screens. The big thing now is big screens. You could easily say the same thing for what it is made of. The big thing with iPhone's then, was glass. The big thing now is what they are made of now (plastic or metal or something like that, I don't actually know)
I don't spend my life looking up devices that I'm not going to get. It also really does not matter what it is made of.

i have this phone second hand is it normaly for this phone not to be loud its very quiet compaired to my old samsung
+Caroline Bartholomew just bought one (second hand) yesterday,i like it so far,but battery runs low pretty fast :/
+Ivo Gadzhev batterys on them dont last long to be fair, worse if u have bluetooth on wifi or have apps running in back ground x
3 things! 1=slow down a little, 2=get emoji, 3=update to 4g! Overall good job!
can i trust ebay or amazon ?
Apple does say that the battery needs to break in and battery life will be extended after about a week or so after a new purchase. Im not impressed with the phones battery life but it could get better
FYI.... Its an aluminum band for lightweight capabilities... not stainless steel..
yes i want to get 4s it looks much more sexy im still wondering should i get the samsung galaxy s3 or the iphone4s
.............what? you should be grateful either way! iPhone's are so expensive, be happy that you get one because a lot of people can't afford one. when i was 11, I only had a jump rope and checkers to play with... you're so lucky!
thanks for the feedback :)
which is best guys blackberry q10 or iphone 4s (16gb) ?
Can I get a factory unlocked phone anywhere?
how much long does Iphone 4S Charges???
Great review man, Thanks!
