********** The all new "Official" iPhone 4S thread - Keep all the iPhone 4S stuff in here **********

Ahh of course but you must remember that it looks the same, therefore as far as a lot of stupid idiots are concerned, it's hardly changed therefore it must be rubbish :rolleyes:

Not sure I agree with you Feek, the internal spec is fine but I would have liked to see a redesign. They've had plenty of time to do so.

As I've said before I value the design and interface over raw specs and as an iPhone 4 owner this adds little. It's fine if you're a 3G/3Gs owner though.

Sky HD
HD
HD

everyone knows what HD is that has 400+ to waste on a phone

They really don't. Ask most people and they won't have a clue what the difference between progressive and interlaced is, or the framerate, aspect ratio etc.

They'll just think 'HD' is better because they've been told it is.

No

The new iphone is dated compared to smart phones that have been out for months.

Everyone can see this.

It isn't dated, it's at least on par 'tech' wise as you keep going on about.

They argue it's a massive boost over the iP4 with its dual core cpu, its increased storage space, its faster gpu etc but when you point out there are 1.4-1.5Ghz dual core cpu phones with HD screens just around the corner its.. so what why do you need that spec in a phone.

Nobody has said that. Everything is just being twisted by certain people.

I was in work this week and chatting to a mate who is a proper Apple fanboy and when he saw I sold my iP4 and bought a SGS2 he said 'why did you buy that, this is much better'. When I asked why he thought that he actually said, 'you can text on this and do facetime'. This is the reason why Apple charge extortionate prices and make so much money.

That's your mates problem, don't hate his phone because of him. :o

Be Careful.

With quality post's like this you might be RTM as a troll m8


Just a thought

See, that kind of post in itself is trolling. It's not the first time you've had a hissy fit about Apple is it. It has nothing to do with the iPhone 4S, you just have a chip on your shoulder when it comes to Apple.
 
Then why buy it?

When you can better for less?

This is a basic concept of consumerism

OMG. Are we really going there again Easy? Really!?

How many times has the whole forum been there and done this with you about Apple products! :p

It is better than the previous iPhone, hence, people will buy it. I'm not looking at Android phones when upgrading. Yes, there is better phones on the market but i just don't give two. The iPhone is great for me and a lot of people so like to stay on the same platform.

Tell me this. If the next iPhone is THE best, fastest, phone on the planet, will you change platform entirely and buy it? I don't think you would and that ends the debate.

But I'd consider it...
 
As a non-geek I was disappointed today. Colleagues and friends also felt a little flat after the announcement.
I can understand many points raised by some of you in this thread, but frankly a lot of it is just too embarrassing to read. The way you lot treat each other is shocking.
 
So, page 19 and we haven't managed a constructive debate on the new things it actually does bring to the table. Sad times =( its turned into the mobile devices forum.

Tis all banter surely? I'd never hold it against someone if they dared to buy a different phone than me!
 
Nice to assume sir. Could be one of a million things, never felt the need to troubleshoot as it's only used to transfer stuff across to son's ipod. Possibly loads of solutions, but I only need it to do that one thing. Why waste time fixing a problem I don't have, but it doesn't perform well on my particular setup

No need to slate the software if it's not been used in it's entirety then wouldn't you say?
 
As an ex iPhone 4/current gs2 user I am disappoint.

In the next few weeks google are bringing out an HD dual core phone. This iPhone has matched the gs2 only to leave itself exposed in a few weeks.

I was hoping for something killer but it has not emerged. The nexus prime
will be superior in hardware and flexible in software. It comes down to whether IOS is killer in itself or not. For me, and without flash or mkv support it is not.

Again, whats the point in "HD" ?
Still convinced you won't see any difference on a screen that size between the iPhones resolution and 720p.

It's mostly banter but some people are obsessed with slating a company for virtually no reason and winding other people up deliberately. I feel sorry for those people.

On a serious note guys....is the 4S the same size as the 4?
Can existing 4 accessories be used with 4S?

Yes.
 
Eh! I thought we had....me and some others were arguing how little it brings to the table...

I think you'l find you and others were instead bringing the typical 'LOL NOT BEST SPEC!' answer to the table, instantly ending any hope of a constructive debate about the new features (camera, video, assistant etc).

I might.

I'm open to value for money

I won't buy a Nvidia GTX 580 I'll get a GTX 570 and clock it

I won't buy a ATI 6970 I'll buy a 6950 and flash it.

Fact is apple is over priced for the tech you get

I'm not a slave or fanboy of anything. I work hard for my money and see the new iphone as a fleece the consumer product. Juts like the rebadged ati and NV GFX cards
