Design wise, it looks plenty different to me. For the layman I understand the criticism, though surprised to see nt blow up on it being the "same".

By the time of the next model release, it'd be appropriate to finally omit the words "slide to unlock" from the sleep screen.

That's the 4s, a cheaper model made in Brasil.

The only complaint I have ever heard about the iphone 4 was the antennae placement and dropped calls.
They fixed it, added a faster processor, upgraded the camera, and soon will give you a brand new OS....

Hardly a brand new OS, but the antenna fix should be stressed as that is a big deal.
- ios5 is right around the corner...not a new os?manonthestreet

Should be interesting if iphone has everything samsung galaxy3s does. i like the video over app split screen the galaxy has.
galaxy has picture identification for log in and screen capture for picture and video. i think this is why apple sued them because the galaxy 3 is much better then the new iphone will be.
i have 4 homies that have the galaxy 3s
- based on iOS6 beta, no to all of that.rosem
- hmmm. so what will be so great about new iphone?teh

Apple, which has made no official announcement, is planning a September 12 event at which the next generation of the iconic smartphone will presumably be announced, according to multiple reports.

SMASH PROOF SCREENS
Why is this never mentioned as a priority?
The 3GS could last (if you were careful), but the 4S is nothing but a timebomb without a case/shell – everyone I know has either cracked one or utterly demolished it.
To require an accessory made by a third party (99.5% of which either work like shit or cost the price of a small car) is just bad design.
I don't believe they can't find a material that does this job
- Gorilla glass? The good stuff, not just from Corning, but the ballistic smash proof stuff.monospaced
- They haven't found it, but they sure as hell have synthesized itmonospaced
- Jimbo820
Just so we're all clear on this then. The rule is, upgrade to 4s from:
3g – Hell yes
3gs – Yes
4 – No––––––––––––––––– END OF THREAD –––––––––––––––––

^ Picture identification for login? What if someone just holds a photo of that person up to the camera? I've never used the phone, but it seems like a security flaw.
Anyway, it seems whenever Apple comes out with a phone that doesn't have an "S" after it's name, it turns out to be pretty impressive.

I'm just going to wait and see.

i have a marware case and I've dropped my 4s dozens of times on hard surfaces and such with no damage to the phone nor has the case cracked only dings and scuffs
- Without that case the phone would've smashed. Any affordable case ruins the look & feel of the phone...biusness
- ...I don't know why Apple haven't integrated smash/ scratchproof glassbiusness
- probably costmonospaced
- I've dropped my 4 on the road many times without a case, while getting out of my car. No problems yet!nb

I'm not particularly looking forward to it even though I own an iPhone 4. Perhaps I just don't want to have any expectations, I'll wait until Apple spills the beans.

What is the funniest part about this, its that before Apple becomes as big and popular that it is since 3 or 4 years, everyone was in love with Apple and everyone were defended Apple in any forum. Now that it has become "popular" Apple is not as cool and some are beginning to hate the brand ...
This is exactly the same thing with music ... When a group is underground, it's cool and is venerated, but as soon as it becomes popular and knows a lot of success it is automatically bad for some people.
I think some hipsters are angry because before they thought themselves superior with their Mac "made for graphics" and that their aunts now use the same Mac to watch videos of cats on the internet.
Apple is as good and cool that it was 10 years ago. End of story.
