For some reason my iPhone 4 has become a little slow.. For example you swipe to the next screen of apps at the home screen and it takes a while to get there. Same with launching apps and music etc. You click it- and it will take a decade to load. It just seems to be doing some odd things recently.

-Had it 2 years almost
-Do use it quite fast for the processor to keep up

Anyone else get anything like this?
 
Yeah my iPhone 4 is very slow. But then it's filled with media and apps and it's a two year old phone.

If you wanna speed it up, manually backup anything you want to keep on your computer or a cloud service (not using an iTunes backup) then restore the phone and only put on what you absolutely need. That should speed it up.

Cool thanks, yeah I only have about 190MB left on my phone.. I am thinking about getting the iPhone 5 32GB soon as my contract runs out next month.
