Correct. the iPhone 4S does have an updated iOS 5.1 that includes a 4G icon, which some say is a marketing ploy and doesn't affect the device's performance.
The only real way I could make mine still usable (and I mean barely) was to downgrade it to iOS 8 and install a bunch of jailbroken tweaks. The end result is that SMS/calls work, Discord works, Telegram works (if you have an old account), Spotify works out of the box although is painfully slow and RAM crashes frequently, and old games work generally okay on it (Hill Climb Racing, Jetpack Joyride, Cut the Rope, Geometry Dash, etc.) Ultimately mine mostly spends its life as a music phone with my Spotify premium account, and usually doing so in the car on long trips.
I wish Apple made a "roll back" feature for iPhones. If, as the 4S as a perfect example, an iPhone gets an upgrade that breaks it or makes it unusable, there should be an option to roll back to the previous iOS. iOS 9 was unusable on iPhne 4S.
Actually the camera is quite great, more than enough for what I need. Indeed. web browsing does not work very well any more. Unfortunately, because this is the most beautiful iphone ever made. The recent models are abysmal with their huge-sized screens. Even the iphone mini is way to big for me plus I dislike that the screen covers the whole phone.

Your channel has great potential, and if you’re interested, I can help you achieve better growth through proven organic methods.
@@bb363b no it uses a micro sim, the first iphones up to 3gs used the mini sim, which I think you referred to when speaking of a "full sized" sim. The actual full size of a sim is that of a credit card, those early sims were used in phones like the famous 90's motorolas.
Every year, will old iPhone work. Every year, it wont do much but simple shit. Every year people make the exact same video and ask the exact same question. I have a video idea…..old toaster, will it work in 2024? Old cassette deck? Old vcr? Old bike? Sick of seeing old iPhones. How about an old htc like the dreaded 3d?
4G or LTE was not a thing on iPhone 4s, that didn’t come until iPhone 5
4g on 5s

I wish you can get mine to work like that
Thank you so much for making this video! I still have an iPhone 4s somewhere and, after watching this, I might just go pull it out!

A quality video from a quality man
This is still usable as an iPod Touch not as your main phone
You can still sync videos on its native player

Great Work Marc -
Your channel videos are very nice and each video resolution is high but due to some mistakes the channel is not growing much.
What mistakes are they then if you know it all? How come you don’t have loads of subs?

Why make this if you don't have a SIM card? Why have a phone if you can't make calls? Ugh.
I love how every year, a phone that was shit the year before, is tested to see if it’s shit this year. lol. 2030, is the iPhone whatever still usable?
The iPhone 4/4S was the symbol of the 2010s
