  • Great review!!!!

  • I was a Galaxy S2 user before getting the iphone 4S and now I am using the Galaxy Nexus witch I think is Superior to both.

  • My question might seem stupid but does white iPhones get dirty marks?

  • I wish I could afford a Iphone 4s but it's too dam expensive, I think apple should make a cheaper Iphone for people with smaller budgets.

  • i love ur reviews ther amazine

  • "I get 800-1000 emails a day"

  • crazy prices for iphone 4s,i would buy a galaxy nexus instead,amazing phone purchased on the strength of daves excellent reviews...............well done dave,keep up your excellent informative balanced video reviews.

  • yes there are many phones now which is better than iphone BUT if you are a mac user the best phone for you is an iphone

  • Would you rather recommend the iPhone 4s or the Samsung Galazy S2?

    I haven't gotten either, but am considering in one and can not decide.

    Which would you recommend?

  • @GdaGiant In his galaxy s2 review he said he'd recommend 4s instead.

  • @GdaGiant i would also like to know his response on this

  • @GdaGiant I haven't used the G2. But i have the 4S. Get the 4 the contract will be cheaper the updates are good but not really worth the price. Processing speeds are fast enough on 4. But the G2 looks nice. Personally though I think the iPhone is the perfect size for your hands its just nice. and works well.

  • @GdaGiant Neither, Galaxy Nexus ftw

  • @GdaGiant They are both very good phones. i have used both. I prefer the Samsung Galaxy S2 because of the big screen however, the iphone 4S is still an amazing phone.

  • :)

    

  • thumbs up if ur coming here cuz u have a new i phone4s

  • HeY please sm1 help me !!!!!!!! I've heard that this phone dosnt support bluetooth file transfer? is it true? if yes then is theres any app 4 it ? nad ive also heard that it does nt support mp3? is it true? if yes then is theres any app 4 it?

  • Great review! :)

    Also have you had any problems with the camera flash? I've heard the white colour causes some of the light to bleed out and it affects the picture. Thanks :)

  • @Apple you should change the design the next iPhone and keep the hardware alittle the same. I will give you a hint to make success use a iPod touch board and program it to be a phone and put it in a piece of glass. This will really help apple. Just to tell you I will be the next CEO of Apple.

  • i just cant decide what to get as my upgrade next week should i get this or the Samsung Galaxy S II or is there anyones better to get please help me!!

  • how to make the icions glow like that?

  • getting this phone tomorrow

  • best reviewer :)

  • which phone seems better? 4s or sensation XE or htc titan?

  • getting this tommrow

  • Great review! Is it worth the upgrade if you have an iPhone thats working fine? would you sugest holding off on buying one?

  • @CreweMan142 Not really, unless you must have the latest or the better camera.

  • getting it for christmas......hurry the fuck up christmas

  • Hey.. I'm really confused between buying the 4S, the HTC Titan and the galaxy note and Sensation. And I already have an iPod touch 4g 64 GB.. And i wanna know if i buy apps on my iPod.. can i have the same app on the iPhone for free??(if it is a paid app)??

  • @aditya6196 yes ucan have the same app for free. Get the iphone 4s trust bruda

  • @aditya6196 ye u can use the same apps

  • I happened to have picked up an iPhone 4S only just recently. I have never owned an iPhone before so I am still getting mixed feelings about it. I do enjoy the camera quality however, I find it to be stunning.

  • Awesome review

  • To be honest, I think apple should stick with this design. There is not much else they can make other than keeping the same design but making it thinner. Think about it. What other design is there other than a curved back and flat back?

  • @Ideaz4U2 thats why your not designing them.

  • If only you weren't a Brit. lol GREAT REVIEW im getting mine in may when my contract reviews.

  • Me too but for my birthday though :P

  • Ordered mine, meant to come 3rd-10th Nov

  • When do you think the iPhone 5 will come out?

  • Great review! I have an android handset and was close to buying an Iphone but the dealbreaker for me was the smaller screen compared to the newer handsets and the customization that android offers. Ios may be good for some but I thought it was way to simple for me and a little boring with an app drawer for a home screen.

  • Great video but lover Android.

  • love the vid good work, and remember the iphone is net for geeks

  • best review. thanks

  • @kylebriffa7 Thank you.

  • Dave love your reviews!

    honestly your the one guy i can ask

    about buying a phone without even knowing

    what phone it is

    love your videos! keep them coming

  • @TheGreenday240 Thanks so much :)

  • Great review! Good insight on the Apple vs Android choice currently and in the future!

  • @gniss39 Cheers.

  • I had a black iPhone 4 16GB and went for the white 32GB 4S aswell!! what a difference!

  • can you review cases that will fit the iphone 4S please. I'm still undecided on which one to buy.

  • I think I'm going to buy the iPhone 4S! :-)

  • fantastic review can you do a review on how to save battery life on iPhone 4s plz and also good cases for iPhone 4s

  • hi dave...can u plz tel me hw much the battry wil last on the 4s if i make 1 hr of calls, do 4 hrs of internet (fb + whatsapp + mail) ??????

  • @vangu901 My guess would be around 8-9 hours.

  • @davomrmac thanks dave ! that does nt sound impressive 

  • Great review, Dave!

  • @cheesyvader Thank you.

  • Great review as always :)) I am going to get a 4s but as i live in Malta would have to wait till next year:/ If I order it online from the UK's online Apple store will they ship it to Malta, and is the phone unlocked, so I can use it with Maltese carriers?? Also which colour do you prefer? Leonard

  • I have a iPhone 4. Would u recommend a 4s?

  • I want to buy a phone and I am loking at iphone 4s can you suggest me...

  • can we get a review on galaxy nexus?

  • 800 -1000 emails a day, stop boasting !!

  • iphone 5 will need a larger screen, maybe something like MS kinnect tracking system, laser keyboard, 128gb memory, carbon fibre body, quad core processor, double the battery life. Now that would be a game changer.

  • Great video ... I'm torn between the Galaxy S2 and Iphone 4s ... seems no doubt the 4s cam is extremely good with a great dynamic range ... but I far prefer the screen and lighter feel of the Galaxy S2 .... (PS: YOu didnt mention the new airplay mirroring feature of Apple OS5 on the Iphone via Apple TV ... thats another great selling point) ...

  • @cabair I'm so there with you, and I keep coming back to the fact that I feel iOS is more polished & stable than android....though as Dave mentioned the gap has been hugely eroded and will be moreso by ICS...and off course the wealth & quality of apps iOS has to offer, but I soooo wish the 4s or this current iteration of the iPhone had a bigger screen :(

  • @KBarwise Since writing that I have had the Samsung Galaxy S2 for a few weeks now, and have been VERY VERY impressed both with the phone and the Android system. The Android Market is very slick very similar to Itunes, I thought it would be very geeky but is far from it., plus Android has a lot of benefits over iOS that I had not considered.

  • People don't understand what is good about the iPhone until they own one. Once you have one - ul never go back. The OS and hardware are so smooth and refined, Apple know what you want. All you Galaxy S2 people.... stop moaning just because you can't afford one. If you can but you don't get one, your loss, just stop bitching.

  • omg ffs bitches, Galaxy S2 came before this shit, and it's better than it !!

    why the fuck do u get so fascinated by all fuckin apple products just because it's apple !??

    8 MP camera, wtf S2 already has it

    dual core processor !, ffs S2 has it already and even faster it's 1.2 not 1.0 !

    they have fixed the antenna LOL !!! wtf is this an improvement?

    Bigger screen much better

    slimmer

    lighter

    fuck u apple retards

  • @TheXV22 calm down nerd.

  • @TheXV22 If you think the Galaxy S2 is much better, then could you please explain why the iPhone 4s benchmarks crush the Galaxy S2? The iPhone 4s almost doubles the Galaxy S2 in various benchmark tests.

    Specifications aren't everything, my friend. The 4S just works well, so it doesn't really need a super powerful 1.2 GHz processor. Don't forget that the iPhone 4S has a higher resolution screen than the S2.

    I'm not trying to hate/troll, I'm just merely stating facts.

  • @TheXV22 i will continue getting iphones just because it has all my music on it. Why would i want to carry round an S2 which is big and carry round an iPod with it because the S2s media player is so bad?

  • @ArcticKiller360 I have Winamp on my S2 and my PC and I can sync music without any problems.

  • @TheXV22  But its an IPhone!

  • Question: When I go to America (USA) can I buy an unlocked Iphone 4s and then use it on any mobile network in the UK? Cheers :)

  • I don't own a smart phone, should I get the iPhone4S or something else?

  • @TehDarkNight Samsung galaxy S2 is cheaper and generally better

  • well done as always :)

  • I upgraded my Iphone 4 to Iphone 4s 450$ with new data plan it look's nice and looks high quality like Iphone 4

  • Apple should totally employee tis guy!

  • @UrbanTurban119 Thanks, that was nice of you to say :)

  • I imagine Dave catching up his e-mails. He reaches his download limit just by reading them.

  • @elpedomasgrande1 lol every day ;)

  • amazing review dave love this iphone 4s genius!!!!!!!

  • @omartechgeek2011 Thank you.

  • dave.. should i sell my htc desire hd and buy the 4s? although im very happy with my android phone.. just a random question

  • Totally agree with your wrap up and summary

  • i need a 4S so bad i love to take pics and videos i so neeeeed it lol

  • omg, he typed my phone number but i didnt get the call, ok no

  • Airplane mode? Unless you need the phone over night while you're asleep, then this of course will turn everything off, use virtually no battery at all and still wakes you up in the morning.

  • @Picturesnap Yep, thanks for that :)

  • Great Great review Dave, but maybe keep it small because some people dont like to watch a 10 minute video. Ofcourse I would lol cause Im a big fan but maybe people that dont know you wont.

  • @TheTechMundo This warranted longer, but thanks for your feedback.

  • @davomrmac I think what he means is squeeze information into a smaller time frame and dont ramble on.

  • Good honest review Dave, well done.

  • @darrylhughes Thank you.

  • Thanks for the honest review Dave! Can you do a review of the Razr as i'm still trying to make up my mind between the nexus or the Razr XD

  • @100mphDK I am expecting the RAZR during 1st week of November.

  • What monitor is that?

  • u get so much less views like other tech reviewers ;p

  • hey dave, it would be cool if you did a video on what applications you use on your iPhone.

  • I still find my Samsung Galaxy S2 is still good.

    I don't understand why they would underclock the cpu by .2ghz...

  • @kimzor1989 It saves battery. Although my sgs2 has a great battery life even over clocked at 1.4ghz

  • Dave, don't look at specs, look at actual speeds! The iPhone manages to be faster and have longer battery-life than most Android-Phones with better specs.

  • how you got it on tmobile ?!

  • Good review. I agree that its more conversational this way. My feeling is that the 4s is a compulsory upgrade for everyone except iPhone 4 owners. If you have a iPhone 4 then you will have to decide if there is enough of a compelling reason. I upgraded from my 4 because I wanted the speed, Siri and the new camera.

  • I love your new start-up music. The old one was too loud.

  • Great review as usual- just shared via twitter. Like ur music intro, really catchy:)

  • @Tassycrafty Thanks, I appreciate that.

  • Cheers Dave!

  • there is no info when iphone 5 comes right?

  • @1Ronaldinho10 this is the fuckin' fifth iPhone , it's just called iPhone 4S , why go shittin' about it ? if the design changed and the name was iPhone 5 everyone would be like OMFG SO AWESOME , why change the design and why change the name it's an honour to steve jobs that's why it's called iPhone 4S , with the S of Steve !

  • @Seantube3 then iphone 3gs is iphone 4, iphone 4 is iphone 5 and iphone 4s is iphone 6

  • @1Ronaldinho10 lol you retard iPhone 3GS was the third iPhone , first there was iPhone , then iPhone 3G ( with the 3G for the 3G network which was new at the time , 3GS with the S of speed and then the iPhone 4 ( with 4 for the forth iPhone ) and now 4S ( with the S of Steve ) , you're logics are bullshit

  • @Seantube3 sry trolling unicorn, i missed one..

    ive never owned and iphone before so i wasnt sure

  • @Seantube3 first of all, he didn't ask what you answered. He asked when the iphone 5 was comming out, not if the 4s is the 4th or the 5th. He didn't ask why they didn't call it 5, again, he asked when the comming iphone 5 is comming out. I think your logics aren't even logics, and please, start by reading the question and then answering it.

  • @elpedomasgrande1 there ain't no iPhone 5 , that's my point , why ask for a new iphone when there just came on out !

  • @Seantube3 I meant one :D

  • Top review. Top bloke.

  • Fantastic review as always Dave. I wanna see a video of you and Dan(MyAppleZone) together reviewing Apple products :)

  • just found you from technobuffalo about 3 weeks ago. now I watch every video you make daily. Keep it up!!!

  • @Portareaf Thanks so much.

  • Best tech reviewer on Youtube, hands down. Keep it up Dave!

  • 1000 emails a day? what kind of sites are you visiting?

  • Excellent review!

  • I like the iPhone 4S, Excellent phone, iOS 5, Brillaint, Siri, it will die down after a while (like the voice control on the 3GS) but.. I personally am not liking iOS as I used to, after seeing the Windows Phone platform taking off, having nice new handsets and features that seems to be winning me over with its refreshing style. But anyway a nice review and i do share some of your thoughts on that it could be better.

  • Could it just be that Apple towers has just run out of ideas?

  • Dave another great video. Would you please do a video on case/s that go well with the white iPhone. I'm getting my white iPhone but am struggling to choose a case that suits

  • Dave***

  • David do you work if so what is your job

  • A fair review Dave. Glad you pointed out the jerky video i mentioned on your camera footage. As a professional photographer that stands out as a flaw to me, I agree with you that it seems like the hardware cant keep up with the camera. Still, it's better than the wobble effect the iPhone 4 gets and the still shots are very impressive, really on a par with many dedicated compacts, which with such a small lens is hugely impressive.

  • It also is a world phone! and at least here in the US we get faster speeds on att close to 4g speeds. I like the "s" series cause I dont have to worry much about cases, app compatibility, etc. Even though its like the verzion version with the side doggles, at least most companies for case, etc. have already and ample amount of products for this version. Ill always buy iphone cause of the awesome app library, apple design, and the fact that it just "works" not to mention icloud changed everything

  • Not only do they need to redesign the iPhone, Apple needs to fix the yellow screen on the iPhone 4S. The same thing happened with the iPad 2 that the screen looks more yellow than its predecessor and even without the backlight bleeding, yellow gate, whatever you want to call it that it still looks more yellow. I'm very happy with my iPhone 4 and Apple definitely needs to come up with something revolutionary because Siri is not all that.

  • Well I picked up a 64GB in White on launch day and two things have made me return it: the screen is not as nice as my iPhone 4 - it's washed out, and the battery life is not as good. Had it been a different format, or had something that my iPhone 4 didn't have other than Siri or the camera, I'd have kept it. As it stands, my Incredible S, for me is a better handset.

  • I think iOS 5 allows for louder speaker volume. Because max volume for music on iOS 4 didn't seem too loud on iOS 4... But now on iOS 5, it seems a fair bit louder!

  • Seen quite a few iPhone 4S review videos and I like yours the most just like having a chat, keep up the honest reviews that's what I like.

  • @iderren Thanks, when I watched it back myself it is so different, I think I will relax and do more like this.

  • @pigpork49 Comment removed.

  • I read that the A5 in the iPhone 4S was supposed to be running at 800 MHz, but it was actually running at 716 MHz.

  • what a iphone fan boy Dave.. ;D

  • Comment removed

  • You said it was going to be the iPhone 5. I think the next iPhone will be called the iPhone 6; it's the 6th iPhone just like the iPhone 4 was the 4th iPhone.

  • @ceterafan123 Probably the iPhone 4G

  • @giants22 Haha, maybe. ;-)

  • Excellent review. Had the phone for three days now (ordered from the internet Apple Store site on the first day) and as a bit of a newbie have watched your videos on getting cases and protector screens etc. I am, like yourself, mightily impressed by the camera and user friendliness. Indeed the 4S is not cutting edge aesthetically but for me the use of IO5 and HD camera dovetails in with my Apple TV and HDTV so watching videos and photos is a joy and really easy.

  • I love you

  • I love you, man.

  • Is it worth to buy iPhone 4S if you're a new customer?

  • You were expecting something revolutionary, something new... Its called a samsung galaxy nexus...

  • I'm glad that they kept the design the same. You can still stand it up straight or stand it up on its side so you can watch video hands free and other simple reasons.

  • damn cheap in UK

    i wanna move there, in swiss its like 899 for 16GB

  • 800 to a 1000 emails a day!?! Crikey!! How much of that is spam? :O

  • @davomrmac ROFL! The review was still awesome. Also I heard somewhere that the Samsung galaxy s 3 will have a HD screen and a quadcore processor. I am sure it was a reliable site. We'll have to see if they're right.

  • great job i got the 4s 16gb black and so far so good.

  • it's great that you are honest about the iPhone 4s. To me if I look at both 4 and 4s I wouldn't be able to tell which one is which. You are obsoletely right about iPhone 4s; they are 6 months behind and Apple need to step up in next version. There are way too many choices of android phones (size, shapes, colours and most exciting is the OS customization). I have android phone, Nexus S and I always wanted an iPhone but I am glad that I have Android phone:)

  • Who knows its IPHONE 4S it can be iPhone 4 .. i know his showing the real one.. but just think if any other tech reviewers fake abt it .. :P :P

  • Really good review

  • Outstanding review. Like 100%

  • Looks nice and smooth.

  • thanks for this Davo, i was really anticipating this review from you. btw i sent u a pm yesterday so when u get a chance give it a little read ;)

  • I got an iPhone 4s for sprint but sprints service for iPhone 4s has bee terrible on 3G and this isn't just for me it's happening to loads of people

  • I can't decide whether to get this or galaxy s2.

  • To everyone complaining about screen size, just try and reach all four corners of a 4.6" screen when you're holding it in one hand. That's why Apple stuck with 3.5"

  • Awesome review buddy. Well done.

  • thank you dave awesome review i will upgrade from my 3gs

  • Awesome!

  • @RobertMale97 Thanks :)

  • is it worth the extra price over a new 4?

  • @Holmseyboy0104 If you love photography or video taking, then yes. For the other features probably not.
