      The latest IOS Version for this Phone destroyed it and it was for me nearly unusable, so i switched to the iPhone 5s and used it to may 2019.

      Dan Smith 5s in Space Grey was in my oppinion the prettiest iPhone ever, it was its time ahead with the processor and
      so lasted nearly 5 years and runs with the performance ios 12 update better then ever. It has the best sice for most people hands. The only worst on this device was the battery and its lifetime.

    My bestie and roommate actually owned a black 4S from year of release until August of 2015. His 4S was actually his first ever smartphone. Before it he actually still used a Motorola RAZR V3, and a discman for songs. Seeing a 4S brings back memories of when he and I really started bonding which began in October 2014. I actually didn't know him in 2011 just remember he told me he got his 4S when it was still flagship

    It is so disappointing to see so many people agree with this reviewer.
    Anyone purchasing an iPhone 4s years after its release is not expecting the same performance as it provided in 2011. Of course it is going to be slow and it is obvious that many apps won't work and modern cameras are superior. However, as a small device it is hard to beat. In 2020, it can still run Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, Whatsapp and may functional older versions of popular apps (Microsoft Word, Google Docs). It runs Apple Music too, which means you can steam tonnes of music without using the device storage. It may not run the latest games but the latest phones do not always run the old games either, and some user may want to play the old games. For making calls and sending texts, this phone is perfect and it wipes the floor with many Android devices from the same period that can't even run a calculator. No one should buy this as their main device but in 2020, it runs pretty well. The guy doing the review is not putting things in the context of the phones age (not in my view). The fact it still runs so many apps and is still working is quite remarkable. No one is expecting the performance you can get from top of the line phones from the time of reading this comment. However, most smartphones from this same period are dead as Monty Python Parrot. Also, 3G is still fast enough and it still works in many parts of the world. No one should buy this phone as a cheaper iPhone alternative at the time of reading (and beyond), but if you have one and are still using it, no problems. I have dug this phone out and have used it without significant detriment in May 2020 and though it is slow, my top of the range LG phone from the same year can't even run RUclips (not even the web version). With the iPhone 4s, you can use the old app and it still works as does the web version of RUclips. This guy reviews the latest tech so he is used to the latest and greatest so his perspective is skewered.

    The 4S was my first non-Blackberry smart phone. And it was wonderful. I even swapped out the black front glass for white, with a black home button. So I had a two-tone phone, and it really looked great. But trying to repair a broken screen was the worst. You had to gut the entire phone from the back to get at the screen, and hope you remembered all the steps and parts to put back into it.

    I still have one of the 4S andI use it periodically just because telegram works on it. I also use it with Spark app for a Mail service. I live in Japan and I was subscribe to AUKDDI. That company now does not allow for new services of 3G. I’m trying to find a service company such as Softbank or DoCoMoSMS that will have that service available but I plan on finding a GEVEY sim unlock card for it. It’s because the date it was manufactured and sold does not allow for an unlock through that carrier. I am mainly trying to use the phone as an iPod for music, reducing the amount of applications on the device and as a secondary phone in case of an emergency

      @@91Tech Galaxy S2 brought a faster dualcore cpu with double of the 4s ram and a 8mpx camera to the smartphone market months before the 4s. Siri is nothing more than a software feature,with jailbreak you can even enable it on iphone 3gs. It aged horribly due to the low ram,not just the software and I personally think that they didn't even try to optimise it. Ios 9 came out just 4 years after the 4s,imagine having a 4 year old $650+ phone which runs that bad. Fortunately bad hardware isn't the case anymore as the current 4 year old 6s runs far better on ios 13 than 4s on 9. I have used both galaxy s2 and iphone 4s recently,running latest android 9.0 on the s2(lineage os) and 9.3.5 on the 4s/note-the ios 9 youtube app works better than the ios 8 one,when you watch videos the player doesn't get stuck!/ . When you disable spotlight search,app background refresh,animations and close apps in the background ios 8 and 9 run nearly the same,with ios 9 being a bit slower,I also should note that on ios 8 you have 1gb less free storage which is deadly on the 8gb 4s model. On the 4s you can barely multitask between 2 apps(for example-fb messenger and safari). Meanwhile on the s2 I can blast youtube vanced in the background while browsing chrome and having 2-3 more apps opened(no games). I should also mention that the s2 deals with the latest versions of the apps,not just the latest compatible. The double ram is easily noticable and the latest version of android seems to keep the s2 fast enough to be used(it ran slower on touchwiz 4.1.2 lol),unlike 4s which struggles with a 2015 os.
      So yeah,nowadays 4s serves no purpose,but at least it did a good job of playing the infinity blade trilogy for me.
