iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s?
What is the difference between these two phones? Why should I choose one over the other? I might be getting one of these iPhones soon, and the 4 is cheaper. But I want to know what the benefit of splurging for the 4s would be?
Thanks!

I have an iPhone 4. Anyway...
The 4s has Siri (tell her anything you want her to look up,send, whatever.) and a different operating system. The 4s was a test for what they were going to do with the 5. So I would recommend to either get the 4 which saves you money or save more and get the 5 unless you want Siri. The 4s was just a test phone.
Siri can...
set reminders/alarms
compose text/update social network
Add contact
tell you weather
Look things up.
Call People
All done by your voice.
Hope I helped.

I recently just purchased the iPhone 4S and sometimes wondered if I should have went with the 4 because it was cheaper. However, I am glad I stuck with the 4S because you will have updated apps, faster Internet, Siri, and the camera is much better. Also longer battery life. You will have your phone for a while (depending on your contract) so I would splurge and get the 4S. You won't regret it. :)

The only real difference is Siri which is honestly not that great. I'd just get the 4 because the extra money spent on the 4s really is not worth it just for Siri, half the time you ask it something and it gives you the completely wrong information. You're better off just Googling it yourself which is what I do. You can get the same covers for the 4 as the 4S because they are outwardly identical and provided you keep your version of iOS up to date you can get the exact same apps as well.

An iPhone 4S has some better features and is more updated, however the iPhone 4 would be cheaper. I have the 4s and I really love it. You may have some hard times finding certain apps and cases for the 4, since it's an older version. I would fully recommend the 4S, but they are both similar.

The 4s has Siri, a voice assistant that can do most things for you like set appointments, reminders by time or location, update your calendar, your Facebook status, open apps, text back, text someone, call someone, read your texts out loud, and others like checking the weather by holding down the home button and asking her to do so.

the only difference is Siri, if you don't need her than its prob not worth spending more on. iPhone 4 and 4s are the same exact model and when you plug in your iPhone 4 it'll automatically update software up to date.

Honestly there both are the same not a big difference your waisting your money if you buy the 4s
