Apple® - iPhone® 4S with 16GB Memory Mobile Phone - Black (AT&T)

I use my iphone as my computer. It is the best phone i ever had. I love that I can see it out side. I will not upgrade unless there is a feature on the new one that i really want. I love how i can use my gift cards from my ipod on my iphone and all the apps and music i have already. I love how can use use them. Before I got my iphone i was going to get an android phone but I said then I can't use my gift cards ,apps and music that i have. Best phone ever!!!!!

This phone is absolutely smooth... I am still getting to know Siri, and she is very helpful. I went from a Windows based phone to an Android, then finally to the OS. OS is definately the smoothest and fastest, with ATT. I'm a believer. The only downfall is that this phone is only as good as the case you get to protect it. The screen is super fragile. But I got an Otter Box. Indoor pics could be better. Outdoor pics as incredible. The pic was taken with the front camera...My son was all amazed as you can see...

love all the features and the apps complete the package - if you are going to have a cell phone the only choice is an IPhone 4S

Wow totally blown away with how streamlined apple products are! The first day I had it I fell in love with (shoot does this make me an apple fanboy)! This was an upgrade from an Htc inspire, when I got the inspire i did tons of research and found several sites reviewing the inspire vs the iPhone 4 and all said the inspire was better soooo i believed them. This was my first touch screen phone and I loved it except the battery died pretty quick and the thing was pretty glitchy. Switching to the iPhone 4s is indescribable... but i'll try. Setting up the phone and iCloud was super easy, really every thing about the phone is super easy so easy it almost makes it boring ha ha. What I mean by this is it's so intuitive that there is no need to play around or customize the phone to get it how I wanted it. With my inspire there was a thousand different things I could customize and do with it and to get it to do stuff I'd have to do a bit of looking around on the internet for "how to" guides. In this regard I can see how nerdy guys love android phones and hate iPhones. Me though it's been a relief to not waste time trying to hack my phone to get it just right when apple's already done that for you! Don't get me wrong it is kind of fun to try to solve problems but I'm not really into doing that so much with phones - I kind of get my fix for this by playing around with the thousands of apps - very addicting and yes can be as much of a time waster as hacking an android phone. One thing I did have to do a little bit of research on the internet in setting up my iPhone 4s was getting gmail to work correctly through exchange, but like i said it's kind of fun solving these kind of problems but now I'm stuck with my "boring" iPhone that works perfectly. What's next...the display is awesome better than anything i've seen. love how smart the auto brightness is, something you might take for grantite unless you've had an android phone to compare it to. The touch keyboard is very good and intuitive, i hardly ever miss type things - for some reason i was always miss typing on the inspire. I do miss the big screen but i don't miss the size of the inspire. I go running and biking with my 4s and it's size is perfect I wouldn't want it any bigger or smaller. The size feels just right in your hand. It would be interesting to see how much research apple puts into something as simple as the actual size of their phones. WIth my inspire when i look at it now it seems kind of goofy and just like the developers where just thinking "how big can we actually get this thing?" like a white trash red neck figuring out how big of tires he can put on his truck. Ok next - the call quality, it works perfect, no complaints. The processor behind the phone is excellent. It's hard to judge the processor other than the phone and apps work perfectly and there are never any delays or lagging. The only thing i can really see where the better processor actually matters in comparing it to my friends iPhone 4 is in the camera. The camera does work much faster and you can tell there is some real power and speed behind how fast the phone stores the pictures you just took. The in-between time for taking pictures is as good as any point and shoot camera. With the camera - pictures are awesome! supper clear, I was worried that the picture size would be a problem with storage on the phone but....we have iCloud! I hardly ever attach my iPhone to my mac. I have it set to automatically upload all the pictures to iCloud so I can go through when ever I want and delete the pictures on my iPhone and they are on my mac in iPhoto under a folder titled "october photo stream". I'm assuming that in november it will make a new folder. Because iCloud is only free for i think 2 gb I will eventually have to physically save this folder to my computer. Might be important to note for some people that the only way to delete pictures from photo stream/icloud is when viewing them on the computer. You have access to all the pictures you previously took took from your camera in your photo stream album but you can't delete them from the iPhone. Next, the battery life is terrific and a not even something you have to think about(with my inspire i was constantly worrying about this and had to bring a charger everywhere!) I don't put my iphone back on the charger until i'm laying in bed and after I've watched an episode of the office on netflix. I guess the last thing to talk about is Siri. She's great! At first I thought it was a bit of a novelty and just a funny thing to show off to friends but it has become a very usable and important thing to me. First though I have to note that the iPhone headphones are garbage to me - they hurt my ears just sitting there for even a minute. To make Siri really usable though you need the inline controller that the iPhone headphones have so I bought the Klipsch is4 headphones (they are awesome you can see my review through best buy). I bike and run a lot and it's very useful to do things while biking or running without taking the phone out of pocket. By pressing the button on the inline controller I'm able to make a call to anyone, text, hear new text, respond to text, play fast forward skip, rewind music and even make a custom genius playlist, make notes, memos, make appointments, reminders - all while the phone is stowed safely away. It's still fun to use Siri for entertainment. My wife is always amused when I have conversations with Siri especially when I say to Siri, "Siri remind me to tell my wife that I love her in 30 minutes". In conclusion great phone/video camera/camera/assistant/music player/video player/personal video game system/gps navigator....the list could go on. The only things I can see apple improving on for the next iPhone would be for a slimmer phone (I think a phone as thin as the iPod touch would be perfect) and maybe a screen that goes goes closer to it's edges without your fingers holding the phone interfere, and of course we have to eventually get the technology to project holograms of princess leia...

Well, this review is for the people that have never owned one and were considering it. I have had a new Andriod based phone since they came out. I loved the OS and I liked the set-up. However, it really just can't compare to the Apple experience. I had my ipod... bought a Macbook... then it all came together with the iphone. Yes, I 100% agree that the specs don't match up with the best of the Android phones. However, what sold me was that they don't change like the Andriod phones do. That was a huge selling point. If you buy an iphone - you are able to do all of the things every other iphone user can do. With Andriod phones, mine was the best of the best... for about a month. My wife's phone was 1 year old and could not even get the upgrade to the OS to get any new apps. She essentially had a dead phone after a year. From there is was easy. I was able to just set it up through my Apple account and it all flowed together. With the cloud feature, app store and all of the things Apple seems to do right - I just cannot see myself switching back to any other type of phone.

I had been debating on getting an iPhone for years and finally took the plunge and bought one for me and my wife. I can honestly say i don't know how i went this long without an iPhone. The Best Buy Mobile store was great to work with and answer all of my smartphone questions and got both phones setup in less than an hour and transferred all information from our old phones. My wife's phone had some problems the 1st week and wasn't able to make or receive phone calls - bad SIM card - but they were able to fix it quickly. I went back and forth between the $.99 3GS, the $100 4, and the $200 4s - i'm glad i bought the 4s. I needed a 4 or 4s b/c i wanted Facetime since i travel for work and have kids at home; Facetime is great.....wish i didn't have to have a wifi connection for it, but that makes sense. The 4s was worth the extra $100 for Siri and the phones ability to type text messages and other things just by talking and the other upgrades from the 4 - it's faster. The camera on the phone is great! i wish i would have known i was going to buy this phone a few months ago and i wouldn't have bought a new point and shoot camera b/c this thing is just as good. Great for taking pictures and videos of my kids. The iCloud service is also a big plus - backs up all my pictures, apps, and other phone information and the first 5GB is free. Overall, great phone and love how easy it is to use the app store and the overall use and functionality of the phone. My wife's not that tech savy - i still have to sync her ipod for her - and she is able to use this phone with no problem.

With the Iphone 5 out, I finally upgraded to the 4s for a great price. The pictures from the default camera are great, display is sharper. My favorite improvement though is the much better sound on this model. The one thing I'm not impressed with is Siri. While entertaining, it generally cannot find what I'm looking for, usually redirecting to something similar. For instance, I ask for home painters and it gives me a list of retail paint shops. You have to be very, very specific and even then Google Voice will usually do a better job. Also, the battery life isn't the greatest. I make sure to delete apps from memory if I'm not currently using them.

Great new phone!! I have had the 3G since it came out so this was a major upgrade for me!! I love everything about this phone!! Camera is awesome! Speed is super fast! And Siri!! LUV IT!! It even has a sense of humor!! As for the dropping of calls-- This one does so much better- My old 3G did not work in the office building where we are, but this one has at leaset two bars all the time-- Has yet to drop a call, although I have only had it a little over 24 hours, but so far so good!! I do wish it had a bigger screen though, but that is it's only downfall in my opinion--
