Very disappointed because they phone came out MONTHS after the S3 and they said Steve worked very hard in this iPhone
I mean I think I will still get it but it isn't as good as I thought it would be
I mean look at the iPhone 4 it came out in 2010 and it's amazing.

Is the 4S really heavy? NO
Is the display really a typical 4"? NO its just longer.
I'll bet with the A6 real world use will show the battery life is NOT better
Better camera always good.
Dock connector...another unnecessary change that is only a revenue stream generator for apple.

I will be ordering one since I already ditched my iP4S to make room. But I will agree its not revolutionary its evolutionary. Everything they showed off has been in Android for at least 2 years. Apple caught up with the iP5. I am not saying Apple has to play the specs race, but they were behind in features that other OS's offered and that is a fact.

So what time can we pre-order, is it in the middle of the night?
