Despite the fact that Apple remains the most influential and most admired company in the world, we all have to agree that their products (just like all others) are far from perfect. In fact, even if the tech giant managed to sell iPhone 4S aggressively from its first week up to last quarter, it still got a lot of complaints from users all over the world.

IPhone 4s complaints
1. Despite the fact that Apple remains the most influential and most admired company in the
world, we all have to agree that their products (just like all others) are far from perfect. In fact,
even if the tech giant managed to sell iPhone 4S aggressively from its first week up to last
quarter, it still got a lot of complaints from users all over the world. So what exactly was wrong
with the iPhone 4S? Here’s a few of the many things users and tech alphas have ranted about
since the iPhone 4S was released.
Siri-ously?
Yes, Siri was definitely the star of the iPhone 4S keynote speech last October and quite a lot of
tech geeks were fascinated by this AI assistant. It is definitely very helpful and very
comprehensive compared to other voice-enabled assistants like Speaktoit or Google’s Voice
Search. She is also witty and entertaining with her ability to joke around and answer the most
bizarre questions with the same amount of bizarre wit. Only a few weeks after the iPhone 4S
was released, people are complaining that they couldn’t make Siri work because “something’s
gone wrong.” It was said to be because of backlogging servers that were overloading because of
Siri’s popularity. Also, Siri would not work overseas and would not be of much use when there
was no Wi-Fi or data available.
Battery Banters
It has been an iPhone problem that motivated a lot of people to sell iPhone 3GS before and
may continue to make people want to sell iPhone 4 or 4S. There’s an unlimited supply of rants
regarding the iPhone’s bad or weak batteries. Compared to other smartphones, the iPhone is
the most power hungry phone. To answer this, dozens, even hundreds of iPhone accessory
makers have tried experimenting with ways to optimize the iPhone’s battery life. There were
solar-powered iPhone cases, cases with extra battery packs, ultra portable USB chargers and
even renewable energy inspired chargers. Still, the battery problem persists and we surely hope
the tech giant is doing something with the iPhone 5 design to make their smartphone last
longer. After all, they say the iPhone is everything you’ll ever need and we doubt that’s the case
for a smartphone that dies in the middle of the day even without calling anyone.
2. So-So Screen
We seriously thought that the Retina Display on the iPhone 4S would make all the difference
that would prevent us from wanting to sell iPhone 4S. However, some iPhone 4S owners said
that when they compared it with the iPhone 4, the latter proved to be brighter than the newer
version! Also, a lot of people who bought an iPhone 4S immediately realized after unboxing
that their iPhone’s screens were pretty yellowish or had yellow spots on them. Some also said
the colors were really washed out or images were fuzzier than their old iPhones. This one’s a
big boo boo especially since Apple has been bragging about their cool Retina screen for so long
now. We’re hoping we’ll get better news for the iPhone 5!
