Is the Iphone 4s Worth It?

The iPhone 4s is another one of apple's advancements, but is it really worth buying? The new additions include a Dual-Core A5 chip which enhances performance and graphics, an 8 megapixel camera and 1080p HD video recording and a voice command system called Siri
But people have already discovered some bugs which include battery life problems which is puzzling all apple engineers. http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2011/oct/29/iphone-4s-battery-location-services-bug?newsfeed=true . Another factor is the iPhone 5 whose release date is a tentative spring. This phone will have 4G LTE features and a faster processor, potentially A6. So should people wait half an year and stick with the iPhone 4, or should they jump onto the Apple bandwagon and buy the iPhone 4s. Another option is an Android phone which ranges from an HTC, LG, Samsung, Nexus and Motorola. http://phandroid.com/phones/. Android beats Apple in mobile app downloads and has massed more purchases overall.

I would go with Android because the market is better and it has equal functionality without many bugs. Another techonlogical debate is the purchase of a tablet. Here are some reasons why you might think of getting an Ipad or Kindle Fire.
1. They make great e-readers with legible text and portability.
2. Act like a second laptop with sufficient hard drive.
3. Unlike computers, they don't crash and can work with 3G networks.
4. Can be used in meetings or presentations for sharing statistics or photos.
Now some reasons not buy another hunk of metal.
1. What is the point of getting a tablet and a smartphone? They aren't any more portable, they just have that big touch screen.
2. Games like WOW and Battlefield are reserved for PC usage because only a computer has enough RAM.
3. A newer tablet will continue to come out, making yours seem like trash.
4. Can't render any useful programs like photoshop or eclipse.
