3d phones with 3d cameras? Perhaps not your cup of tea, but miles different from previous phones.
Really?
Regarding resolution, can you see any difference in 720p on a screen this small? I mean you can't see any difference between 720p and 1080p distance dependant, surely the same applies to phones?
I think rather this is Nail. Head. Hit.

It will be very interesting to see how well Siri actually works.
I agree, the Nexus Prime will chew the iP4S and spit it out in terms of hardware specs.
Those who have a 3G or 3GS, the 4 or 4S will be a very good upgrade. For those who have a 4, it is pointless. The 4 handles everything very well, and as far as I am aware there is nothing that really requires the extra cpu speed although it will be nice.
A5 cpu - the obvious
8mp camera - obvious
1080P recording - obvious
iOS5 - already known
Ram - no mention (still 512?)
Storage - 64GB (but for that price?)
Nothing there is really better then the Galaxy S2, and that has been available for how long now? Apple is playing catch up and for those who managed to sell their iP4 like me, or were thinking about selling and actually 'upgrading' to something worthwhile, the 4S is absolutely not an option.
I wasn't really expecting anything to make me say wow, but I got even less then I expected. My only ever Apple purchase was the iP4 and I really liked it, it's a great phone but this is the perfect time to move over to Android to a far superior device which will be out very soon. Roll on Oct 11th...

I'll give you that, but that's a tiny Market.
There hasn't been anything on normal phones for a while.

Asking if it has more than 512Mb of RAM is trolling?
Getting a grip!
Soldato
still rocking the 3gs so i am going to upgrade as i missed out on the 4 as my contract was still on going
Soldato
They are the same processor though, just a different GPU are they not?
O, i see a Easyrider signature in this thread.
Without reading anything he's saying i'm sure he is enthralled about the revelation of the new iPhone release and has come scoffing all the way into the apple section to laud at us all about his AWESOME tech that he owns that isn't apple.
pew...pew!

Sheep! I like that their shares are down, and the US thinks it's a bad show...
First impressions from the us sites are it's not good enough and is 6 months too late, bit like what some of us are saying. IOS traction is down, consumers are saying they're looking away from IOS and Android has almost 50% of the US market. If you bet everything on high end phones, you need the hardware to be extremely good, not just playing catch up with everyone else. The infrastructure is perceived as being expensive overall, this won't help one bit...
You know full well it wasn't the question, it was the way it was asked.
Got a firm grip.
Yeah,
Have you seen the people that buy apple products?
They will buy a turd if its branded with an apple logo
Doesn't make it a good phone.
Shudder
I was looking forward to an iphone 5 to drive the tech along.
It doesn't sadly.
Its already dead tech
Soldato
do you think when the iclone walks out the apple store, having paid for the phone and signed up for £50 a month, with what looks like his old phone in his hand, the penny may drop?

Don't be absurd. Are you seriously suggesting that people would buy faeces if it had an Apple logo on it?
To coin a phrase...
Seriously?
Don't tar everyone with the same brush. I know many people who buy Apple products, I've never seen anyone like some of the muppets in the videos that people keep bandying about of store openings and the such.
Keep this thread on topic. It's about the iPhone 4S.
Its all about appearances, riiiight.
It was never an issue with the 3g -> 3gs, why is it an issue now?
Suspect its something to do with Apple's increasing success forcing more anti-Apple trolling out of the woodwork, its like 1990 -> 2005 Microsoft all over again.
