So I just upgraded from the iPhone 4 to the 4S because I got a pretty good deal on it, and my dad wanted to upgrade his 3G.

I am having a hard time finding any real significant performance boosts in the apps that I normall use. I was wondering if there are any iPhone 4S only apps out there (sub $9.99) that would really make the A5 processor shine.

Thanks!

Edit: oh, and I'm in Canada so Siri can't do anything relating to maps/locations.
 
Yup got to wait till the and there is a few racing games that look much better on the 4S also you can try the modern combat it really looks good, And loading times are better
 
eh? no apps for the dual core processor you say? Darn what will my pet beaver think of this fellow Canadian?
Kidding aside:
-infinity blade
-all apps general load time
-any graphic intense stuff (although honestly I never was using my iPhone 4 and said.. "hmm you know what this is so slow, I need another core"
 
Thank you all for the suggestions! Also a quick apology to the mods, I just realized I posted this in the wrong forum :eek:

That's the thing, like you I never really found the iPhone 4 slow, and I can hardly see the improvement of the A5 processor. I figured that there must not be many 4S-only apps, so thought I'd ask. Hopefully come december there are more apps that can utilize the power of the A5, battery life be damned.
 
Did they release the Grand Theft Auto III Port yet for iPhone 4S and iPad 2? I know they said it would be available in the fall, but I don't know when in the fall.
