Pro  4909    Hailey, ID |  Subject: No iPhone 5, Apple releases the iPhone 4S *Now on Sprint!*Looks pretty cool. World phone that works on both networks, 2x speed and 7x graphics than iPhone 4. Also has much better camera/video and takes pictures faster than other phones. Also has Siri which looks awesome. Coming Oct 14th. www.macrumors.com www.apple.com Edited by bradword 2011-10-04 1:39 PM |

I can't make a call without it dropping and half the time I try to answer the phone I can't slide the little bar across the screen.

Expert 1186 North Cackalacky | Subject: RE: No iPhone 5, Apple releases the iPhone 4S *Now on Sprint!* I checked, and I'm not eligible for the discount pricing until next April. So, no 4S for me in the near future. |

| Expert 1099 Broadlands | Subject: RE: No iPhone 5, Apple releases the iPhone 4S *Now on Sprint!* Probably going to get one on order on the 7th, not the big iPhone 5 announcement everyone wanted though.... I'm not sure the camera and voice recognition (Siri) are huge technological advances, or competition killers, I think the competition will actually be quite happy with today's Apple announcements. Still, like I said, I'm going to get one on order as soon as I can, I like the apple products and compared to the BBerry I use, even the 3GS is an advance. On the Sprint front, I read they have invested $20 Billion to get to play in the iPhone market, yesterday the reports were the 4S would be available and Sprint with the huge investment would get the iPhone 5. Now it's 4S for everyone, no exclusive iPhone 5 for Sprint...big commitment with no exclusive option? |

Pro 4909 Hailey, ID | Subject: RE: No iPhone 5, Apple releases the iPhone 4S *Now on Sprint!* ChrisM - 2011-10-04 1:52 PM So, now I am leaning towards the Bionic. If I am going to spend that much on a phone, might as well get 4G LTE speeds, and I am familiar with the platform I'd be very careful about LTE battery life. It's just not there yet. There are usually pretty good reasons when Apple leaves out a technology, and battery life and bulk seem to be the answer for not going all the way to LTE yet. http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-bionic-tech-support/172037-b...

Extreme Veteran 605 Centennial, CO | Subject: RE: No iPhone 5, Apple releases the iPhone 4S *Now on Sprint!* I was really hoping for a 5 announcement. I was going to convince my wife to upgrade her 3gs and I think for a 5 I could have got her to agree. For another 4, even if it's faster...I probably can't. I was a little disappointed no change in design, but next time maybe. Ios5, however, I'm pleasantly surprised. I was expecting the release to be much later. |

Elite 4372 Connecticut | Subject: RE: No iPhone 5, Apple releases the iPhone 4S *Now on Sprint!* bradword - 2011-10-04 3:03 PM Also, iOS 5 and iCloud releasing on the 12th I'm pretty excited for iCloud. While I have been an Apple groupie for years, I never bought the Mobile Me and didn't realize I needed it until it was too late. I am desperate for iCloud so I can easily sync my iPad, iPhone and MacBook. As far as the new iPhone announcement goes, I'm impressed with the iPhone 4S. If I didn't already have an iPhone 4 I'd probably be getting the 4S. Actually, before my husband deploys in May I'm sure he'll upgrade just to have the worldwide roaming feature. Perhaps I'll have to upgrade as well just so I don't feel left out. |

Veteran 177 | Subject: RE: No iPhone 5, Apple releases the iPhone 4S *Now on Sprint!* A lighter phone would have been nicer. Comparing my 4 to my sister's 3G my phone's a brick. Not that I was planning on upgrading for at least a year if there was an iPhone 5 announced. I guess the plus side is it keeps my shorts from riding up on runs when it's in my pocket... |

So, no 4S for me in the near future. How do you check that? I have had my phone more than 2 years but I think during the almost 7 months I was deployed that contract is on hold. So, by the time I'd be eligible then it would be a few months after the 4S has been out and maybe by then there will be a 5? Though, this does seem like a pretty darn big upgrade...wonder why they didn't go with the 5 designation. |

If I am going to spend that much on a phone, might as well get 4G LTE speeds, and I am familiar with the platform I thought the 4S was 4G LTE? I am no techie so someone please correct me where I am wrong. At least on verizon, the 4S is not 4G LTE, since it isn't supported by the LTE network. There's another form (?) of 4G on other carriers, I think Sprint, that is 4G, but it's not the same as 4G on Verizon. One of the pre release reviews I read noted the confusion that apple could call it 4G on sprint, bt not on verizon I am sure that makes sense As for the battery life, yeah, that's the only kicker, although tuwood (just) turned me on to an extended battery, he's getting 2 full days of use out of it Edited by ChrisM 2011-10-06 5:39 PM |
