This is actually my boyfriends first iPhone. His old phone quit working so I talked him into an iPhone. He absolutely was against purchasing one! He uses his iPhone more than his old flip phone and, I see him cleaning it before placing it in its' cover case. Yeah, I think he likes it!

I received my phone on time and it seems to work well. The outward appearance was good. The only problem I can see is the battery doesn't seem to stay up very long. I do not use the phone a lot but leave I do leave it on all of the time and have to recharge it every other day. I was also disappointed that there was no charging cable included, as the other phone I received that didn't work so well did have a cable included with it and it was a lower priced phone.

Apple iPhone 4S PROS Apple's iPhone 4S has a faster processor (A5 chip) and an upgraded camera, all the benefits of iOS 5, and SIRI, a useful and immensely fun voice assistant. Call quality on some providers is admirable, and the data speeds, while certainly not 4G, get the job done. CONS Poor battery life. It's about time we get a larger screen. Not completely fixed antenna reception problems in spite of dual antenna. With a dual-core processor, upgraded 8 megapixel camera with Full HD video recording, the latest iOS 5, iCloud and the voice-activated Siri intelligent assistant, there's plenty of reasons to regard the new phone. Expensive and technically it hasn't got very much that rival handsets haven't, but it's the best that Apple have ever made. In fact that makes it very good. The iPhone 4S has the same glass and metal construction as the i phone 4. You won't find any creaks or loose parts, and the only plastic used on the phone is for the home button below the display. Apple's use of glass for both the front and back of the phone may be questioned by those who tend to drop their phones often, as it has a tendency to shatter, despite it being reinforced. The i fone 4S' display is noticeably different than the Super AMOLED Plus screens from Samsung, as it's not nearly as saturated and punchy. However, the colors seem more accurate, and the screen is just a joy to look at. The new A5 dual-core processor (as seen in the iPad 2) makes things noticeably faster. Apps launch quicker, web pages load faster, multi-tasking is more fluid and resource-hungry apps like Pages now allow you to edit documents without any lag. Competitors will argue that their phones have been able to produce similar results for months, and they'd be right, but it remains a little upgrade. Conclusion: The iPhone 4S isn't the king of cell phones, but it's part of the royal family nonetheless. Even without 4G and a fair screen, this phone's smart voice assistant, SIRI, the benefits of iOS 5, and its spectacular camera make it a top choice for anyone ready to upgrade. SIRI: use your voice to set reminders, send a text or check weather.

I also own a Galaxy S II, Galaxy Nexus and Focus. Great phone for the average user. It is a superior phone that actually feels so in the hand. It's a good change from all the "plasticy" Samsung phones. The retina display looks great. I can not tell a difference between the 720p HD display on the Galaxy Nexus and 640p display on the iPhone 4/4S. It is very snappy and does not lag at all. I have not had it crash on me once, yet. Battery life is a little better than the Android's. I do like that more applications are available and that there as hundreds of accessories made for the phone. One thing I find myself hating is the screen size. It's not utterly small, but it is annoying to switch to after using a 4.3" or 4.65" on the Android's. I must say, however, that iOS has not changed much from previous products. The icons are still the same as the original iPhone and have only a few new features (multitasking, notification center, etc). I would like to see a new build of iOS, but I doubt that's coming soon. The next iPhone is coming out in about half a year so dishing out $400-500 for a 16GB model is absurd. If you can get a price for less than that, I definitely recommend.Read full review
I have always been an android lover but kept getting frustrated over the battery life. I didn't like iphone at first. I bought my phone used and within a month accidentally dropped it and shattered the screen. I was able to get it fixed and apparently it had been repaired before. There is also some indication that the charge area has been previously exposed to water. I'll have to have this repaired as well. Luckily I know someone who is inexpensive and does so as a hobby. Is strongly recommend buying a hard protective case and not those flat cute cases. I bought a military shockproof, water resistant knockoff case and it works wonderfully. I love the camera on my iphone it takes quick repetitive shots way faster than any android. All in all it's easy to use and user friendly. I will be buying one for my husband.Read full review
