Apple iPhone 4S Review
31.12.69
From the perspective of the average consumer upgrading from an iPhone 4, the iPhone 4S' bottom-line impact in terms of user experience may be too small. But for performance junkies, first-time buyers and owners of older models, the improvements are substantial.
Regardless of which category you fall into, however, there's no question that the iPhone 4S is the best in the series thus far.
Despite the disappointment consumers may have felt about Apple's decision to maintain the same design as last year, it remains one of the most unique, sleek and modern looking devices on the market. The build quality, while still inherently vulnerable due to the glass paneling, is solid. And the only significant issue with the design -- the problem of signal loss when holding the device a certain way -- has been resolved with the new dual antenna system. In addition to the antenna built into the aluminum casing, Apple has implemented a new internal antenna. The iPhone 4S automatically switches between the two behind the scenes depending on which has the strongest reception, even while in the middle of loading a website or when on a call.
