Apple iPhone 4S
If you're upgrading from an iPhone 4, Apple's new iPhone 4S is best described as an evolutionary rather than revolutionary upgrade. However, for current iPhone 3G and 3GS users, or those switching from another platform, the iPhone 4S is a significant upgrade. A higher quality camera and video recorder, a faster processor, a better graphics chip, more memory options and Siri voice control make this one of the best smartphones on the market. A new iPhone is here and it's called the iPhone 4S. It may not have been the iPhone 5 the tech world was expecting: the iPhone 4S has an almost identical physical design to the previous iPhone 4. However, it boasts a number of improvements that make it a worthy upgrade provided you're coming from an iPhone 3G or iPhone 3GS. For iPhone 4 owners, however, the iPhone 4S is less appealing — even if it remains a fine smartphone in its own right.
Pros:
- Excellent performance
- Improved 8-megapixel camera
- Siri voice assistant
Cons:
- Identical design to predecessor
- Upgrading from an iPhone 4 less appealing

The iPhone 4S is Apple's top of the line smartphone, but is it just a small upgrade over the iPhone 4 or something entirely different? It looks the same, but does it act the same? New in the iPhone 4S is Siri, Apple's virtual personal assistant, along with an upgraded camera, twice the speed as far...

iPhone 4S
The iPhone 4S needs no introduction. It has sold so many pre-orders that it has already been declared a smash hit even before it was available for sale. Now, at long last, we've gotten our hands on one, and it lives up to the hype, and then some.
Pros:
- Still beautiful
- much faster A5 dual core CPU
- better camera and Siri
Cons:
- No 4G
- glass front and back more likely to crack if dropped

Apple iPhone 4S in-depth review -
There's a term used to describe the allure of Apple products and it was coined in 1981 by an Apple software designer. Legend goes that the reality distortion field, or "RDF", was what Steve Jobs spun to convince one of anything via charisma, hyperbole and that glistening veneer known as really,...
Pros:
- Incredibly responsive interface and touch-screen
- notifications bar for events and weather
- excellent camera

- high-quality apps at an easy to navigate app store
Cons:
- iCloud data sync costs after a miserly 5GB
- most of its best features available as a software update to older iPhones

Apple iPhone 4S review
It's not an essential upgrade, but Apple's iPhone 4S is noticeably fitter than the iPhone 4 – and Siri is a temptation too far
Pros:
- Slick
- superfast performance
- That new 8MP camera really shines
- Siri is destined to be your new best friend
Cons:
- Not a radical departure from iPhone 4
- Easy to damage when dropped

O n the outside of the Apple iPhone 4S you will not directly observe any differences compared to its popular predecessor, the iPhone 4. But appearances are deceiving. The Apple iPhone 4S uses the new iOS 5 operating system, offers a dual-core processor, intelligent assistant Siri and a further...
