Hm Sprint has dropped the 4s price down to $150.

CigarNut · 08-05-2012, 06:59 PM

I have an iPhone 4 and have been waiting 2+ years for this.

Blueface · 08-05-2012, 07:04 PM

I am ready.
Can't wait.

I decided not to upgrade from the 4 to the 4S so I've been waiting also. Now I have an upgrade available and am just waiting to get a pre-order in after they announce.

Me too too. As soon as it's announced, I'll be ordering two of them and listing my 32GB 4 on CL.

Maybe they'll do something to improve the battery life in the new phone. The 4S battery life sucks.

Anyone can upgrade anytime they want, they just might not qualify for the subsidized price.

Ogre · 08-05-2012, 09:01 PM

I am still carrying the 3. Always a step behind when it come to technology. I will upgrade to the 4S with my next upgrade. I will let you guys work the bugs out of the new stuff before I buy.

Turn off location services for all those apps that use it and turn off all those push notifications and you will be surprised with much better battery life.

Unless you sacrifice a lock of hair from your 2nd born child who must have been a female and give 3.4 oz of pure milk from your pet goat that must have been named "Cookie"

Blak Smyth · 08-06-2012, 07:48 AM

I have the 4 and let the wife use my upgrade to get her a 4S since I am waiting for the 5. Can't wait for a bigger screen and better camera!!!

My 4 can go a few days without a charge.

CigarGuy88 · 08-06-2012, 08:42 AM

I'm not up for an upgrade until February of next year :/

Is that your "early upgrade" date? Usually your contract is 2 years but they let you upgrade early after 18 mos.

Yup, Apple fans are suckers with open wallets.

Come on Moses.. I love apple products and I'm not buying everything. My brother despises Apple but it seems like he is always ordering a new processor or upgrading something on his Windows based computer. Same can be said for us in the cigar world. Always willing to fork over the money for the new blend or the latest and greatest from whatever manufacturer. It is not only Apple fans.

So typical Apple. They have done these pointless changes in the past to nickel and dime everyone, like being first to get rid of floppy drives. Has nothing to do with changing technology

Apple must be the first company ever to change connectors, too. Can you still use the Motorola Startac charger with the new Droid 4?

Changes in standards are always a pain, but sometimes are necessary. Can't reduce size and increase components without making changes. Apple has used the same connector for almost 10 years, maybe cut them a little break on this change.

Mine would too if I never used it for calls, email, or surfing the net.

Upgrading hardware for performance and being mandated to adopt to new standards are two different things. I despise Apple, but was one of the first to have an iPhone and still using the 1st gen. phone!

Who am I to knock what they are doing. They are way more successful than I could ever dream of being, but to think of hassle users will go through with the new adapter is sad. Think of car manufacturers that have the current adapter built-in like BMW and Jaguar (I sure there more than that). How is an inline converter going to work even if that's an option?
