The editors didn't like

  • No 4G
  • Costly
  • No flash integration

  • Glass back breaks easily
  • Higher capacity models are expensive
  • Carrierlocked GSM models can't roam internationally
  • You have to use the AT&T SIM card.
  • Pricey
  • Glass back can easily shatter
  • IOS is beginning to show its age
  • Improved 3G speeds don't seem very improved
  • Especially compared to LTE devices
  • Glass and metal design is beautiful
  • But easy to shatter
  • Upgrades (other than camera) really don't feel vastly improved from iPhone 4
  • Battery life issue
  • Image quality still not on par with even entry-level dedicated digital cameras
  • Noisier than digicams
  • Especially at higher ISOs (but you already knew that)
  • Still no user control over shutter speed
  • ISO sensitivity

  • No real 4G yet
  • Design still somewhat fragile
  • Video a bit prone to CMOS effects
  • Smallish screen
  • No user replaceable battery

  • Excellent image quality, Speedy performance, Refined iOS 5
  • Expensive
  • So, is the iPhone 4S a disappointment just because it looks the same as the iPhone 4? It would be only if you have been expecting the fifth generation of iPhone to be the iPhone 5 - as of now, still a mythical phone with a larger display, metallic bac...

  • Super fast, really good camera and the promise of what Siri has to offer,
