So, by reading the forums there's a lot of complains, about battery, bugs etc..

I know it's only a small part of iPhone users that posts here - because they want help.

But you kinda get the picture that it's a lot of problems with it..

So can you say that you are 100% happy with it?

If you think the battery sucks, then your not..
 
Same here real happy, i still have my 4 but the 4s is better! And i don't have any of the problems that people are describing here!
 
There will always be complainers. When you got people "tapping" on their phone to make it rattle, you got some crazy people!

It is OK as my local Apple store says they now got 4S refurbs in so they can recycle these phones back to these nuts! LOL! With any luck they might get the original phone back!
 
Is anyone "100% happy" with ANYTHING in their life.

Perhaps setting the bar a little high? ;)

85% happy with anything seems to me to be doing pretty well. :D
 
Came from a iPhone4 and yes, i am extreme happy with it. First bought it for Siri and to have the newest one :p but Siri is boring because it is not in my main language (dutch).

But i do like the new camera alot. Made my first shot of it at my Breitling and was really stunned by the quality of it.

I'm neutral. The OS isn't as snappy as I would think it should be, but that may come with an iOS update. Other than that...
 
I'm 90% happy - my battery really sucks, but I'm going to the Apple store tomorrow to have them look at it, and I also bought a Mophie.

I have a couple otherissues but theyre minor- the camera-i wish theyd let us choose between 1080 and 720, and i wish we could turn image stabilization off-there are times when i want the extra bit of screen real estate. Those are minor quibbles though. Mostly I'm really happy with it, just need to get the battery fixed!
 
I too, think the 100% bar is unattainable in reality

It lends itself to saying if you are 99% happy then you aren't truly happy
And then "nobody" is happy with the 4S

I am extremely happy with mine
Are there some things that could be enhanced, improved, etc.?
Yes
But I am not unhappy at all

While there may be some issues amongst some vocal users, the vast majority seem to be very happy
 
I'm about 90% happy. The slight reduction in battery life versus my iPhone 4 lowers my satisfaction a little bit. It's still the best phone on the market by far, in my opinion, though.

Yes I am happy with my 4S. It meets all my expectations and I really like Siri and the retina display-much improved over the 3GS.
 
Im 100% satisfied. :)

Love the camera as well.

You need to remember that this is a forum, many users come here when they have issues. Most of the people not having issues do not visit. So for every one complaint here there are 10,000 happy people using there iPhones.
 
I am happier with the 4S than the 4 or the 3GS.

Millions of people seem happy with the phone. However, if you are ever 100% happy with anything, you are stagnant. I'm glad Jobs was never 100% happy with any of his endeavors.
 
i'm happy with the 4s.

there are a few things i miss coming from android but thats not really the phone as much as it is apple

things like not being able to file transfer to any other phone with Bluetooth or being able to plug into any computer and pull up the file system.

but i can live with this using drop box
 
I'm very satisfied with the 4S. It meets my needs, makes me smile when I use it. Sure, I'd still like faster data speeds, but that doesn't by any means make me unhappy with what I have now. You can love what you have...but still want a bit more :)

I laugh at the people who say they won't have refurbs for another month or two and that any phone gotten in a swap is sure to be a new one.

Too many people are returning phones for no reason and I wouldn't be surprised if Apple is just turning around and giving these phones right back out to people returning their phone for whatever reason.

Why would they send the phone back and replace every part of it if the phone is less than two weeks old with really nothing wrong with it. I just don't see it.
 
Once the battery issue is sorted, I will be 100% happy with the iphone 4S. I seriously have no other complaints. But there is obviously something buggy with it.

I've had no build quality issues, no proximity sensor issues, no yellow screen, no muddled speaker, no restarts/freezes, nothing. It is Perfect (minus the battery, but even then i've now had 2 charge cycles that were better than my iphone 4S, ie 36+ hours of regular/heavy usage)!

It's been less than 24hrs but I am 100% happy at the moment. My first iPhone ever and I barely miss my old BB. Can't wait to go to the class at my apple store on thursday!:D

Amen to that Brother, I have tried others, friends have various different phones with different carriers, but now they are all dumping Crackberry's and Android devices in favor of the iPhone.

I personally switched from a Windows Mobile phone the Motorola Q9M back when the 3G was out, went from VZ to AT&T and never looked back. Great products that just work, great service from AT&T.
 
Great phone. Met both my wife's and my expectations and then some. It seems like a lot of people, where I work, have also purchased the iPhone 4S.
 
Very happy, but that is due to a number of things.

I am coming from the 3GS, so there's obviously a quantum leap in performance that I am experiencing.

I also just switched to Verizon, so now I can ACTUALLY carry on full conversations in my apartment without being dropped all the time!
 
Well...yes...and no. I wish it had 4G/LTE. But other than that I am very happy with my iPhone 4S. I almost want to give Android a try...but iPhone just works and iOS 5 solved some of major pet peeves with the system (notifications!!!).

Very happy. Love iMessage. Gave girlfriend my iPhone 4. She's very happy. Win-win. :D
