True, the iPhone 4S is not a breakthrough, it is not anticipated iPhone 5, a new name and quality. Is there anyway is worth attention, especially when we have the previous model?
The ground is strong opening reviews – to such places TechCrunch : What does the “S”?
When I ask Apple , give vague answers. Point out that some people say that it means “Special” or “Super”. Others that “Speed” (“Speed”) – as the iPhone 3G, iPhone 3G successor. Or is “Storage” (“Magazine”, a place for data), because it is the first iPhone with 64GB of memory. (…) Or is “Speech” (“Speech”) or “Siri”. Either of these last two would get my vote. “S” can mean anything, depending on who is using this device. And one thing I know for sure – it is so far the best iPhone.
Techradar.com :
As mentioned, the iPhone looks almost identical 4S as the iPhone 4, which may irritate those who want to show your friends that have the latest device from Apple.
SlashGear :
Quite familiar but new, iPhone 4S from the outside is not much different from its predecessor, but the measure is complete novelty. (…) From the outside, the same as the iPhone 4, from the inside on the contrary. Apple gave up their change-made for change, so left the same 3.5-inch display Retina, glass and aluminum design and a minimalist aesthetic. This decision announced at the premiere sfrustrowa?a many people, but in fact is justified. Expanded to a larger display device itself, probably making it uncomfortable for women, teens and all with smaller hands. Accessories of iPhone 4 will also work with the 4S, which allowed Apple to focus on increasing power.
on which the change is worth paying attention?
TechCrunch believes that one of the most significant improvements is new processor – A5:
First iPhone 4S ahead of four when it comes to speed. Over the last week I tested my most frequently used applications and noticed a sound, and sometimes incredible difference. (…) Do not come back to the iPhone 4 and frustrated with delays. Applications that need time to do the job – such as adding a filter in Camera + – now run much faster. (…) Even greater gains can be seen in games. Apple Infinity Blade 2 presented at the conference, but the leap in quality can be seen even less visually rich applications.
Exactly the opposite feeling is, however, the reviewer Gizmodo :
If you have iPhone 4 is the smallest reason to upgrade is speed. Although the chip has the A5 and is actually faster than the iPhone 4 But not enough that I felt the difference in their daily work, as was the case with 3G and 4
Engadget sums up this little detail:
Actually
can safely say that most of the viscera thrown Apple iPhone 4 and put a new there – starting with the A5 processor. Yes, the same dual-core chip, which is driven by iPad 2, and although Apple did not say it runs at 800MHz – 1GHz slightly lower than in the tablet. RAM is still the same – 512, but the maximum capacity has been doubled, like the iPod Touch – up to 64GB.
According CNET one of the key improvements is the Notification Center (Notification ):
Instead of pop-ups that interrupt your work, the new Notification Center includes the information about messages, Missed calls, application updates, stock market, weather – all in one the spot. (…) This is not the end of the original – drawn from the top of the menu has long been a hallmark of Android – but this opportunity to check all notifications in one place is a good feature iOS5.
However, this change will appear in each device with iOS5. What is reserved only for the iPhone 4S is Siri, a personal assistant, whose ability to recognize human speech is praised for Gizmodo:
Siri, a virtual assistant in the iPhone 4S, understands me almost as good as the people – I estimate that in 85 percent of cases. The Windows Phone is about 80%, and Android 70 percent.
We made a comparison speech recognition by iOS5 with these built-in Windows Phone and Android and found that they are comparable. Although Android bit less friendly to use – it was needed a few more hits on the screen. Windows Phone (…) he had problems with transcription, and sometimes did not understand more complex sentences.
Both, however, note that the advantage of Siri is a communication in the “human” language.
Engadget:(…) do not need to remember commands. At least not as thoroughly as in Android. If you want to hit the place with Google Navigation, you need to say exactly, “Cross-X”. For Siri you say, “Give me a route to X” or simply “How to get to X” or just “Cross-X”.
Gizmodo:
is human enough. “Is tomorrow will be cold?”. I see the weather forecast for New York. “Where can I drink a beer?”. A list of bars.
With smaller benefits – SlashGear also draws attention to a new camera:
iPhone 4S comes to photography much more seriously with the new 8-megapixel camera, which is a large change in relation to 5 megapixels in the antecedent.
Likewise CNET:
From the beginning I noticed a difference in image quality compared to the iPhone 4 The colors are brighter and sharper images with less clear pixels. It’s no surprise that the camera is doing better in low light, though the flash is often a bit too strong.
Apple promised 8 hours battery with 3G enabled, which would give an hour more than the 4 Interesting that in standby mode, it can withstand less – 200 hours, not 300 as the fourth
summary
Perhaps best summed up his review CNET:
4S needed improvements added to the already excellent device. (…) Android fans are right: the iPhone 4S adds features that allow it to stand in the reins of the phones a few months. But it’s not the point. This phone is not all, but nobody gives comfort to commune and operating it as much attention as Apple. Some believe that it is worthwhile to pay for a more closed and centrally uregulowamym system, while others prefer to have more control. Apple’s philosophy is not only legitimate, but may be right for you. And if so – the phone will not disappoint you.
