    iPhone 4S

    The specs were released for the new iPhone, and basically all it got was a better camera.
    The fact that it sports a dual core chip now is totally irrelevant, because it runs at the same frequency as the old one, and iOS is horrible at multitasking and won't see any benefit from the extra core. I was expecting something far far better for all the hype.

    Here's a comparison of today's "superphones"

    Now that we know how the iPhone 4S stacks up against the iPhone 4, let's take a look at how Apple's latest smartphone compares to its mightiest competitors on the other major platforms -- Android and Windows Phone. In Google's camp we chose the superlative Samsung Galaxy S II models (focusing on the announced US variants) along with the Motorola Droid Bionic for its qHD and LTE chops. We then picked the upcoming HTC Titan to bat for Microsoft's team. RIM's not included here since it's still stuck in the junior leagues. We left out the intriguing Nokia N9 because it's a niche player. Check out the fancy table after the break -- the results are pretty clear cut!


    Of course, you could throw all the numbers in the world at an Apple fanboy, and the iPhone is still the best phone. Luckily I'm not one of those fanboys and these numbers actually hold meaning.

    Anyone rushing out to buy this thing?

    Possibly they lack the comprehension of how much better android phones are lol. I don't think a jailbroken iphone is as good as any android phone

    edit: love how the iphone pretty much won none of these lol

      Nope.
      Never was a fan of Apple; never will be a fan of Apple.

      I'll stick with getting a Sony Ericsson Acro instead :3

              I'd rather buy iPod-touch if the new version is out (for better performance).

              I currenty use 4th generarion one as a web browser/MP3 player/PDF reader, with a portable wi-fi router.

                i sorta like iOS's appearance, too bad that's the ONLY thing apple is any good at.

                needless to say my htc incredible still gets lots of love even though the incredible 2 came out a couple months after i got it

                  I was considering upgrading to one of these since Im still on the old ass 3G, but after seeing the vid for it, better off just doing what staiain said and getting a reduced price 4 rather then send $200 for a new one of these.

                              Re: iPhone 4S

                              seriously disappointed; it's just the same shit as the 4, but with a slightly better processor (not that it even matters with apple's horrid OS and lack of true multitasking) and a slightly better camera. I'm happy with my Atrix for now.
                              Only reason the dual core processor would ever matter at all is for jailbreaking shit, and I have this gut feeling that the Jailbreak community is going to go to absolute shit (moreso than it is now) come ios 5.

                              Just grab an LG Thrill or wait for the Nexus Prime; there's really no reason to ever buy Apple Phones because it'll be outdated within the year.
