A notable progress in the production of smartphones by Apple was the release of the iPhone-4S. When the 5th came out, this was a further breakthrough of the brainchild of Steve Jobs. Immediately after her presentation, many fans and enthusiasts began to compare these two phones. Their goal was to determine which is better: iPhone-4S or iPhone-5. We will also conduct a small comparative analysis.
Visual differences between devices
The difference is visible even at first glance visually: the new gadget is thinner and longer, the dimensions are 123.8 x 58.6 x 7.6 mm and 115.2 x 58.6 x 9.3 mm, respectively. The width, as we see, is the same. The case is more elongated in order to accommodate a four-inch display. Designs, as you can see right away, are very similar.
We continue to consider iPhone 4S and 5. The differences are also in the fact that the second model is noticeably lighter than the first, its weight is 112 grams, unlike the 140 of the “four”. The four-inch screen provides a resolution of 1136 x 640 pixels, which should be estimated by representatives of the female half of humanity. The new smartphone has an aluminum casing, not glass, which makes it stronger in case of accidental drops.
A little about stuffing
When deciding
which is better: iPhone-4S or iPhone-5 , you need to pay attention to the more convenient and compact docking Lightning connector. By the way, if you want to use old accessories, you can use the included adapter. The devices differ in color. If the "four" is monophonic, black or white, then the "five" is two-tone. The new phone is equipped with a faster and more powerful Apple-A6 processor and has a fresher and better operating system
iOS 6, supports LTE, although not universally.
Cons of the new phone
By cons include the SIM card used in the new Apple device. For many buyers, the use of nano-SIM, which cannot be cut with scissors, like the previous model, may turn out to be an unpleasant surprise. Fortunately, the main Russian mobile operators have already purchased enough of these cards. You can get it for free at the office of your operator. Many of those who choose which phone to purchase, which is better: iPhone-4S or iPhone-5, are disappointed that the two models under consideration have different chargers. And in the event that you decide to become the owner of a new product, you will have to buy another charge.
But the camera was very pleased with the owners of new items, as evidenced by their reviews. IPhone 4S, and 5 even more so, both can take good pictures, but thanks to its eight megapixels, the second device can fully replace an amateur camera. Many unprofessional photographers regretted having bought some pretty appapat. After all, using an iPhone is much more convenient and easier to take high-quality pictures, the quality is excellent. In addition, there is a rather interesting function: the ability to take pictures while shooting a video.
Still, which is better: iPhone 4S or iPhone 5?
The choice, if you are going to make a purchase, is very difficult. Therefore, think carefully about what you need and why. The phones do not differ to such an extent with their technical characteristics, to say: this is a real super-thing, and this is an outdated, ancient model. So if you want to save, then buy an iPhone-4S, if it is important for you to feel like the owner of almost the latest (already 5S and 5C) new items, then take the "five". With any decision, you will not be disappointed. After all, unlike other manufacturers, Apple already doesn’t need to specifically advertise its products. So this is just a matter of taste.
