Sarala's Review of I-phone 4s

Firstly I had stopped writing for long so I thought I would pick myself back up with a review for my new phone.


As we were eagerly waiting for I-phone 5, instead Apple has announced I-phone 4S, an updated version of I-phone 4. So this what i think of the new phone.



To begin with the handset doesn’t have any difference – not a single change so a down point if you want to show off your new gadget because no one will even notice that you have the new version. I was expecting at least a size deduction a tummy tuck considering it's an Apple product however the new phone is 3g lighter compared to its predecessor.

So it’s the software and the hardware that has changed.I-phone4s has had a upgrade from the A4 processor to an A5 daul core chip which means it can deliver up to twice the power and seven times faster graphics.

Another big change is upgrade of the camera for a camera hugging person like me its fantastic news as the new phones been bumped up with 8mp. It also has a bigger aperture of f/2.4, the illumination sensor has been ‘improved' and there's additional face detection. When it comes to video the camera will be able to shoot in HD 1080p as opposed to HD 720p, and it will have added video stabilisation that the I-phone 4 cameras doesn't have.I guess apple is finally meeting up to current specification of other smart phones when it comes to camera.


Apple has also made an improvement to the I-phone’s storage too. It offers up to 64GB of internal storage, which is twice as much as the biggest I phone 4 because I-phone’s has never had a memory card slot for expansion so this will help users who require more space, especially now that video is in HD 1080p.

The ultimate change is Siri which is a new voice control system which i call my NOKOR hehe dream complete of having a personal asisstant as it is meant to do everything you ask it to do but Siri can be quite annoying at time when it doesn't understand your accent so it is useless at times.

Overall the I-phone 4S is not a massive upgrade from the I-phone 4. It just has a better processor, an improved camera and more storage. I am hugely disappointed that the handset has had nothing done to it to make it different from the I-phone 4 in terms of looks sometimes i think to myself what is the point of owning the new hadset. IOS 5 is an upgrade, of course, but how annoyins as this will be available for I-phone 4 users as well.

If you're an I-phone 4 user then i recommend you wait  for the I-phone 5 unless you're desperate for the better camera or larger storage capacity. 

Love Sarala :)
