Regardless of the reviewer\u2019s slant, there seems to be universal agreement that the iPhone 4S is an evolution rather than a revolution. Unlike earlier model introductions where Applephiles would dump their older models in a heartbeat, there are actually some who might be better off holding onto their iPhones rather than engaging in knee-jerk upgrading.<\/p>\n<h4>Brilliant 4S Innovations<\/h4>\n<p>Cosmetically, the iPhone 4S is a clone of its predecessor, but when you delve into the details you discover that there is barely any aspect of this latest Apple smartphone that has not been extensively revised:<\/p>\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<ul>\n<li>The dual core CPU is considerably faster and more capable than earlier single core iterations<\/li>\n<li class=\"main_bullet\">The camera has been boosted to eight megapixels with 1080P full HD and has a variety of automatic features added<\/li>\n<li class=\"main_bullet\">The battery provides the same duration as earlier models even though the 4S has considerably greater electricity requirements<\/li>\n<li class=\"main_bullet\">AirPlay mirroring is absolutely addictive<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The antenna doesn\u2019t require the mastering of Masonic handshake positions to get reception<\/p>\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<p>\u2026and of course there\u2019s Siri, which is the game changing artificial intelligence voice assistant that is the primary reason to get the iPhone 4S \u2013 and is the first step towards the conversion of all human-machine interactions to conversational speech.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4 class=\"main_bullet\">Old Nags Are Still Present<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"main_bullet\">However, not all is perfect in 4S land:<\/li>\n<li class=\"main_bullet\">Flash is still verboten, locking out nearly three quarters of all active web content<\/li>\n<li class=\"main_bullet\">The headphones still don\u2019t measure up to the cheap Chinese imports at the local dollar store<\/li>\n<li class=\"main_bullet\">Satellite navigation is still an extra cost option<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<p>\u2026 and most of all: the 4S is widely regarded as a half-measure on the way to what promises to be a far more revolutionary device in the iPhone 5, which is widely rumored to encompass a swath of new technologies ranging from a larger screen and 4G\/LTE support to teleportation and phaser fire. However, this marvelous fantasy device may be as far as a full year away from introduction, so what should an iPhoner do now? Upgrade or hang on?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h4 class=\"main_bullet\">Upgrade Now? Maybe Not<\/h4>\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<p>If you\u2019re a dyed in the wool enthusiast with Apple juice running through your veins, you\u2019ve likely already stood in line to be the first one on your block to have a 4S. However, if you\u2019re a bit more rational about how your smartphone fits into your lifestyle it may not be necessary to take the 4S leap right now. Most people don\u2019t use their phones as a substitute for a digital SLR, so the capabilities of the new camera will be lost on them, and you can bet that after a brief novelty fling with Siri most 4S owners will rarely ever use it again. Considering that a 4S is going to set you back a couple hundred dollars plus whatever your carrier is going to tack on, the value of upgrading now may be questionable for some<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<h4 class=\"main_bullet\">Most Mobile Phones Are Used as\u2026 Phones<\/h4>\n<div class=\"main_bullet\">\n<p>The vast majority of the Earth\u2019s 5.3 billion mobile accounts are on phones that allow users to make voice calls and send texts (remember those nostalgic functions?) and get along just fine without pushing the 4S dual core to the limits while playing Infinity Blade. Even many of the owners of the advanced Apple and Android mobile units fail to take full advantage of their devices\u2019 impressive functionalities in their median everyday use.If you need Siri and\/or just have to flash the coolest, latest hyperdevice around the workplace or bar, by all means go grab a 4S. If you can rationalize holding on to your iPhone 4 or even (gasp) the 3GS or (double-gasp) the 3G until the 2012 premiere of the iPhone 5, you might find you\u2019ll be a bit richer and just as happy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reading the reviews of the iPhone 4S could lead some to believe that there are two different variants making the rounds: one that is a welcome, feature-laden descendant of the earlier iPhone 4; and another that is an embarrassingly disappointing prologue to the post-Jobs age where Apple\u2019s famed innovation has gone the way of Hummers,&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":139,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2186],"tags":[373,1017,1178,1212,1285,2406,2425,2426,2435],"class_list":["post-11373","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-2186","tag-apple","tag-steve-jobs","tag-siri","tag-iphone-4s","tag-iphone-4","tag-2406","tag-2425","tag-2426","tag-2435"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.4 -
