Apple Racing: iPhone 4 vs iPhone 4S (wifi, Safari, iOS5)

iPhone Racing: 4 vs 4S. On iOS5, using Safari while on wifi, looking at bookmarks, after clearing history & cookies. 4S is noticeably faster, as expected.

Do the test somewhere you got full connectivity on both phones. You can clearly see the iPhone 4 has less bars than the iphone 4S

@HipHopPianist doesn't matter, they were both on wifi and had the same amount of signal (about 20 feet from a dual-band N router)

Cool video. What kind of case do you have for your phones? I'm getting an iPhone 4S but I'm not sure which case to grab that doesn't detract from it's aesthetic beauty..any help I would really appreciate.

@Pato0919 See earlier comments for details about the cases. Incipio Edge. They do detract from the "beauty" somewhat, but I'll take that, to get some protection without being too bulky...

And that 0.5 seconds you save will affect your day?

@waxcoatedbanjo Hahaha no, this video was to show the speed difference in both ways. Like... yea the 4S is faster, but it's only this much faster, so who cares. :-) I bought it because I was due for a discounted re-up, not because I thought - or think - it is g0d's gift to the smartphone

I've had the 3GS since Nov 2009 and just upgraded to iphone 4S. It's a drastic change for me. I can wait another two years for the next change. Any upgrade to a new phone is a step forward. Why do people need to upgrade to a new phone every year? If the phone works for your needs, what's the problem.

@cutdownsideways judging others for whatever bookmarks they may have (especially ones that were only put in for purposes of this video) = fail

@Si3z3 Ur such a genius. These idiots in the comments can't even do simple math 1 second > 5 seconds.

@3973278 No, i figured. That's the way safari looks when you have private mode "on".
