Default iphone 4 vs, iphone 4s

I'm finally due for an upgrade so I'll be getting my first iphone. Verizon has both the iphone 4 and the iphone 4s, the 4s being double in price.


I'm looking for any input on either model and is the 4s worth the extra money?

Thanks.

i think the choice is mostly going to be what you want in a phone and how much you want to spend.

camera 5mp vs 8mp
siri or no siri
processor speeds

i would say those are the most notable differences. if you are due for an upgrade and can wait till the next iphone then i would do that.

hope this helps

Thanks for the reply. I'm a bit tech remedial. What is the siri processor about? What is the difference? Do you know when the next iphone is suppose to be released?

4 is slightly slower that the 4s. I was in the same situation except I have ATT. I decided to get the 4. It was $100 bucks, which ended up being close to $200 with all the taxes and fees. and I got to keep unlimited data at the same rate. I had the original iPhone. I figured the 5 is coming and there isn't that much difference other than Siri and slightly faster processor. I'm not that into technology so the 4 was enough.

intelligent personal assistant. Basically you can push a button and ask siri questions like "what's the weather like in xyz city". You can tell it to send text messages to certain people, read text messages to you, dial certain people, schedule appiontments on your calendar, read out your calendar for conflicts, etc

I was in the same situation as yourself. I was pretty excited to get an Iphone. I am a cheap bastard, so went with the Iphone 4. I did not hesitate either. I was like 100 vs 200 hmmm, no brainer.
