Externally
There's nothing revolutionary about the iPhone 4S
It looks almost exactly the same as the iPhone 4. in fact
It is the same as the iPho
Siri doesn't work so well with emails
Still no Flash support
Siri awaiting UK location service
Retains smashable glass front panel
Screen no longer the biggest or best
32GB and 64GB models are expensive
Siri not so useful in the UK
IOS 5 can feel dated at times
Same look as the iPhone 4
Siri's usefulness is currently limited in the UK
Costly
No flash integration
Outdated contacts menu
Most of the best features can be gained by upgrading the OS
Syncing iCloud data costs after 5GB
There isn't a huge change from the previous version

Battery life: acceptable, but could still do better, Voice calls: sound becomes saturated if volume is too high, Siri: we want to see it work with more apps
The iPhone 4S is as easy to use as ever, and sees the arrival of several improvements. The most substantial of these include visibly better photos from the digital camera and the faster processor speeds. The new voice services from Siri are a clear par...

Quality design, new iOS 5 features keep it competitive, PC-free living, new camera is excellent
There isn't a huge change from the previous version, battery needs careful management
It may not be the most thrilling upgrade ever, but Apple has put some thought into making the iPhone more useful, and has largely succeded in improving it hugely. Siri and the new camera are the two main improvements in the device, and both are useful ...
