- The iPhone 4S wasn't just killed... it was murdered. It might sound cliche but Apple really did screw it over with the iOS 9 update- so let's talk about that.

I’ve still got my trusty 3G in the drawer somewhere. I can’t even look at that without it lagging haha
Hi, I watch you!
Fancy seeing you here. I love your videos
RandomGaminginHD same
It’s in my closet of forgotten things
Ah yes nice to see u here
I've been on android my entire life, with short stints of iOS use (it's just not for me) up until 2015, I was just used to laggy phones lol
iOS 11 killed my 5S but iOS 12 somewhat rectified things.
Gary Chapman I liked the 5s it was my first introduction into the Apple ecosystem and now I have a XR and love it and I use my 5s Jailbroken for music
Who tf still has a 5s those things are ancient
Some guy I still have a 5S in my collection that works perfectly well but obviously very slow compared to the 10’s and 11’s.
I have a 5s in my collection. I am surprised it got iOS 12 still works great 👍

Logan Lunde why would you buy an ipod touch if you can have a phone and a music player at the same time
2015: 6S & 6S+ were launched; iPhone 4S (2011) is already laggy.
2019: 11, 11PRO &11PRO MAX were launched; iPhone 6S & 6S+ (2015) is still a considerable choice for a daily driver.
Still so in 2022

In my head, I thought that Apple was doing an experiment on iPhone 4s, and they accidentally killed it. It was like all those lab experiments which end up with someone dying.
aKyra you got that right. And the worst part was it was the dumbed down version of iOS 9

I lived with the 4S ever since my elementary (well around 5th - 6th grade) and middle school days until I upgraded to a 6s then to an 8 Plus.
Despite the slowness, I guess it served me well for years.
Edit: Have you people ever lived with the 4s since 2011? How long before you upgrade?
elementary? took me until 8th grade to get my 1st phone
Big upgrade
noopthespoopy haha same here! I wasn’t allowed to have a phone until I was 12! Even then it was just a flip phone.
John Nguyen i had one from 2012-2016
I had a iPhone 4, i flexed on all the people with the slow 4s's.
Still using the 4s till this day
Just for purely Spotify only
That’s what I do with my iPod Touch 5. I also have iTunes and Soundcloud. It’s definitely slower, but it’s cool how thin it is and there’s a few things about iOS 9 that are kind of neat, like the animations and lock sound. I have an iPhone SE that I use as a phone though.
my old speaker with the 30 pin dock connector still works like a charm dont want it to go to waste just plug and go
I use the 2G for alarms and music
My 4S needs to be restored... 😞
Adrian Kurian you have the 2g 🤭
Updating my iPhone 4s to iOS 8 from IOS 7 was my biggest regret with that phone after that I just stopped caring and updated it to iOS 9 and that was another big mistake at least it was somewhat useable on iOS 8 iOS 9 destroyed it to the point that I had no choice but to upgrade
That is so sad 😞
Upgrade to the 6S or 7 if on a budget! Both of them still run smoothly!
downlgrade it to ios 6.1.3
brobroant bro you can downgrade to iOS 6
91 tech made a vid about it
My grandpa still uses an iPhone 4s, he only needs it for texting and calling so why go overboard with a newer phone when this works just great for him.

Do you still have it? Have your tried repairing it yourself?
When iOS 9 came out I updated both my 4s and iPad mini! Ugh no wonder I switched to Android until the XR and new Mini! I like the 4s simple design. I easily replaced the battery on mine and for a few friends.
Josh, please live with the iPhone 5 for a week like you did with the 4S if you get the chance.
I have a 5c as a burner and it’s pretty decent for its age. Some animations are slow but there’s seldom any lag. Looking at my XR, I sometimes wonder about the real world differences.
get the 8 plus or se. they are the best for your health. the 6 is good but the battery is bad. i own an xr. it is alright, like the screen size, but it makes me feel ill

The iPhone 4 and 4s are the most beautiful phones Apples ever built ❤️

Back in 2015-2016, I remember having a iPhone 4, but my older cousin had a 4s, and I remember being so jealous of her phone getting iOS 9, and having Siri. I also remember she was telling me about these cool wallpaper apps she had, ( It was 10,000 Wallpapers, I think ) and I went to download it but it came up with that pop-up saying " This app requires iOS 8.0 to download. Please update you phone's software to download. " I was so annoyed when that came up. I still have that iPhone 4 and was using it for a little while during the video, and my god, How did I even use that phone back then? It's crazy slow when opening apps like FaceBook.
I also had a 4 in 2016. I swapped phones with my friend and from there I was an Android user until 2020 when I had a taste of the 2016 SE. then from there I changed to the X and then I downgraded to the 8 because the X overheated too damn much.
I still have my mom’s old 4s
Exact same here
Mr. Dingus I will have my iPad 2 forever, I plan on passing it down.
Same bro
I loved my 4s, it was my 1st iPhone 📲
Same lol but in 2017 xdddd
@ProTM AD1D82 me too! I bought 4S in 2017. By the way, 4S is my second iPhone. First was 3GS, which I bought in 2010
If the a5 chip devices weren’t slowed down then people would have used those devices way longer
i used a 4s from may 2019 - october 2019 as my like proper phone because my iphone 6 broke it was hell youtube would always shut down after 10 minutes of use and the only real game i could play on it (that i like) was happy wheels
Squidward play asphalt 8 and real racing 3 in your 4s and make sure the wifi is off and your performance will be great also you can jailbreak your iPhone 4s , install a tweak called lowerinstall in Cydia, put iOS 8 in Lowerinstall then delete CZcams then redownload it thats how I got through the slow CZcams app and btw I may send you a buncha games that I play in my 4s if we in anyway can get connected online lol.
iOS 8 worked great on my 4s back in 2014-2015

I had a 4s when ios 9 came and it was horrible my god I just decided to smash it to pieces at that point
Corey Burns did you actually smash it ?
@@Wcthllboy its worth like 20$ haha I almost decided to do that when I had mine
Lol same, I was so angry at that
Yay one of my favorite phones til Apple made is lag.
I remember when my dad gave his iPhone 4s and he had bought the 6. The phone was fine on iOS 8 and then I was surprised when Apple give it iOS 9. I updated the phone to iOS 9 and my phone was absolutely destroyed and totally unusable. I totally agree with you here that Apple totally killed and destroyed this phone.
My first IPhone was the 4s 16gb and it’s was a friend that got me into iPhones, and now I have the 7+ 32gb
👍
Mine was also 4 then 5s, 6 and now 7+
Calbente I went from 4s 5s 6s 6 and now 7+
i went from a 4s, to a samsung, then the 6s now i have the 8+
I went from Huawei, 5S, 7+, then a Red XR
Still have my 4s
I still use a 4s as my secondary 4n and is still fully capable for ur daily tasks.
What os is it on
Just reduce motion and transparency in accessibility settings as workaround
That helps, but unfortunately it doesn't fix things
91Tech I’ve tried those things, too, but it still doesn’t change how apps are so poorly optimized. The UI home screen is OK, but not as good as the previous generations.
I recently switched to an iphone 4s (from an android phone) and though its a bit slow, jailbreaking it and installing coolbooter and having both ios 9 and 6 makes it a pretty decent phone in my opinion. Although im going to switch to a 5s in a little while for better app support and lte support as sometimes 4g and 3g can be a little slow sometimes.
I really like all the music you use in your videos, Home is an amazing artist
I used a 1st gen iPad Mini running iOS 9 for school back in the day. I remember trying to search for something on safari and having to wait a couple seconds for my keyboard inputs to show on screen. A shame as it was perfectly smooth on previous versions of iOS.
Having a 5S as a temp. Back-Up device on iOS:12 is indeed a good Final-V. just that I really miss the Dark-Mode from iOS:13… …Really wished they would add that to any iDevice officially since the 5S-JB.-V’s.of it is a lil bit too heavy & the Smart-Color-Invert option usually mess up too much to wanna keep it active permanently which is what I’d prefer.
4S was my first iPhone. Upgraded to 5S, 6+, 7, X, Xs+ I love how much the 10 (esp the smaller one) remind me of the 4
KvnHcks there's no Xs+, you probably tryin' to say Xs Max
FAJ Bros there’s literally no difference in saying “Xs+” or saying Xs MAX, personally I wish apple stayed with the original naming for their iPhone, some guy honestly thought I was talking about condoms when I was talking to some of my co-workers 🤦🏻♂️
That intro song makes me feel like traveling back to 1991! Lmao 😂
I also had an iPhone 4s until 2017, and I can say that mine just started lagging once it booted up when I updated it to iOS 9 and it slowly died throughout the years until it finally died just last year when it didn't booted up anymore.
Honestly the A5 devices shouldn't have went past iOS 7.1.2. I’ve owned them all and ever since the iOS 8 update they were slow then the iOS 9 update made things unusable for me.
I have an iPhone 4s on iOS 9.3.6 and it runs perfectly well, unlike what is portrayed in the video

you live in vancouver huh? i can tell by the hat and what the local weather says on the phone….

I like your choice in background music.
You're talking about a phone that was released over 8 years ago. Does it matter that Apple stopped supporting it? No.
It was one of their most popular phones and people still have it, that's why.
If you guys watch the video you'll even know he's saying the phone shouldn't have been updated as much as it was
You should go and show ways to make these phones less slow through settings and jailbreak tweaks In a new video series
A good friend in school still uses the original iPhone 4. He's hopefully gonna get a 6s on Christmas though so i'll be able to buy it off of him because I just so happen to collect iPhone 4's and iPhone 5's.
I’ve used the iPad 2 on ios 9 for a full year and a half. That was my only device. It was brutal.
I had a iPad 2 until it caught on fire 6months ago. I called apple they made me calla engineer and he laughed at me. So naturally I bought a iPad 4 and it is much better. BUY A IPAD 4 not 2 or 3!!!!
I forgot to say it caught on fire while charging
I have an iPad 3 right now I might get a 4 or 5
Mines fine, and runs pretty fast on iOS 9.
Don’t leave your IPad charging while you sleep! It could have allso been your charger or battery
Why not a 7
Did the fire catch anything else on fire?
I strongly believe that apple should make it able to downgrade iOS versions
I used a 4S until I got an SE in the Fall of 2016. I never went beyond iOS 7 on it. Since I am only using it as a white noise generator at night, I decided recently to update it to iOS 9 to see what would happen. Yeah, it is so much slower than it used to be. I'm glad I never did it while I was using it as my main phone. It reminded me of when I updated my 2nd Gen iPod Touch to iOS 4.
I loved my iPhone 3G more than anything else at the time. Despite no front facing camera, it was amazing. Years later went to a 6 (it was okay, phone decided to bend out of no where but worked.. somewhat. Lol. Now I have the 11 and love it. I’ve been in-between galaxy’s and iPhones for years
I used 3G then got a 6 Plus until i stopped then then insurance got me a 6S Plus
I was ahead of the times😎never updated pass IOS 6.0👍🏿
I loved the design of the 4s i owned it for around 18 months. My dad still uses a 4s just for calls and texts and it’s struggling to do that now.
The 4s reminds me so much of my iPod 4th gen. I still have mines and it works. Battery life is awful on it though. To be expected. I never updated the thing from stock iOS it came with lol. So it’s still fast and smooth as a result. iPod 4 was my first ever apple product too as a kid.
That’s cool and all, but who is still using an iPhone 4
Josh Wunder me
i still have a ipad 3 i use exclusively for youtube and it works pretty well (especcially for 30eu)
Hinkel Yep, though it is pretty slow. Luckily, Google kept supporting iOS 9 for a while when the CZcams app was updated with Dark Mode.
NoVoiceTech It won’t be the latest version of the app since just a few months ago they stopped supporting iOS 9, though honesty the app hasn’t changed much since beside adding Dark Mode and it still works.
I'm still using a 4S. Calls and texts are fine and everything else is done in Opera Mini. Its the only browser that can handle that small amount of ram. All the big apps like twitter, facebook, spotify etc crash when they run out of memory.
I didn’t have the 4S but did have a 4. It was my first iPhone and I loved it! But two years later it was slow and I actually hated iOS 7 on it. I loved the skeuomorphic icons.
Apple should’ve killed the 4s with iOS 8
Just don’t install a lot of apps on that 8GB or 16GB model 😂
thank you
I had a 4S and always kept it updated. It ran smoothly - and then I got the iPhone 6S. And then the 4S was slow.
A few years went by and I had forgotten about it. But a poorer friend of mine bought a cheap phone, and as cheap phones do, it broke.
So I whipped out the 4S some day and gave it to him.
A year later, he still uses it. It’s in virtually pristine condition still. The battery is starting to fail, but it is an 8 year old phone after all.
I recently found my mother’s old iPhone 4S. It still runs iOS 7.1.2 and works beautifully - though the battery is starting to die in that one, too. I get it out on occasion for the nostalgia.
In my opinion, it has always been a fantastic device and will always be remembered as a fantastic device.
I had the 4s in black and it was my first iPhone. I absolutely LOVED the thing. I was aware that updates would slow it down, as I had a friend who updated their 4 to iOS 7 and it got really slow. I waited to update to 8 when the Amazon app stopped working. Then I updated to 9 later on to get the new features. It absolutely destroyed the phone. I used it until 2016!!!! Then when the SE was announced, I preordered it immediately. I’m typing from my SE right now! I still have the 4s, just in its little box on a shelf. It’s better this way.

I've had those things for years, and infact, I bought them when I had to use my 4s as a backup while my 7 was in the shop. Yes, it was hell, but you know what, I made it. I had been living on it beforehand for like a year.
Now I've got a Pixel 2 and my old iPhone 7 as backups, but it's not so bad.
I got the black ones.
This is why my 4s is on 6.1.3 and will stay there until the end of time. She's a very good mp3 player and still takes pretty good pictures.
I used to love my iPhone 4S when it came out in 2010. I used it for 4 years. It did start slowing down though. I only had 8gs. so I was out of storage and had to get a new phone. I can’t believe how small it looks compared to my iPhone 11 Pro Max. It’s funny how technology changes so fast.
I just bought iPhone 4 in 2019.. For listening music only, not my everyday carry.. I havent use Apple before, but I love this iPhone 4
8:54 I think it’s just the mindset of “oh only give the phones 2 updates”
iOS 9 + 512 mb of ram is the killer here. If the A5 was paired with 1gb RAM, the devices would be more bearable on iOS 8 & 9.
...Which makes me wonder how the iPad 3 ran since iOS 9 got the full 1gb to work with?
7:58
It also has the A5X which is slightly better. If the screen was not retina and had a lower res, it would run fine.
With the introduction to Checkra1n, you could bring that old 4S back to life on iOS 6 or such.
Are you from Vancouver?! the hat!
My friend has a 4s currently but thankfully he just ordered a refurbished 1st gen iPhone SE and he’s getting it in about a week
Until I finally got an upgrade, my last "phone" was the iPod Touch 5 and it was also unbearably slow. As for my iPad Mini 1st gen, I am still using it and itching to upgrade to the iPad Mini 5.
In depth video
One of my teachers had a 4s since launch and only recently upgraded to a pixel 3a
I found an iPhone 4S in my house while I was cleaning a few days ago, and I plugged it in, and it’s running iOS 9.3.6.
Fun fact i can open and close youtube 3 times on my iphone 11 at the same time it takes to open control centre on the 4s
My dad still uses his as his company pays for his phone plan. I always discouraged him from upgrading IOS since I thought it screwed over older phones so he’s still on IOS 8.
Confirmed. Casting my mind back I tried to hold off on iOS upgrades for the 4S for as long as possible, but annoyingly they force your hand with app compatibility.
ive never had any problems with my 4s with the exception of not being supported anymore by many of my apps. i replaced the battery, speakers , and charging/data harness two years ago because they were worn out. it does heat up some if it is being heavily used while charging but i consider this a minor issue. ive tried to get it to lag and crash but i have only been successful a few times and with a bit of difficulty. the device isnt the problem. the problem is that carriers wont support the device and i am having difficulty switching service.
My iPhone 5C broke in early 2017 so I bought a 4S and used it for like a month or two. And I remember it would always die out of nowhere, which annoyed the hell out of me
The iPhone 4s came out during my senior year of high school. I got it as a graduation gift from my family, and the latest version I ever used on it was like 7.0.1 when I bought my 5S. So I never used it pass early versions of iOS 7. That poor for us though. It was really the only phone that I physically damaged. I was at a concert in the summer of 2013, and in the middle of it, since it was an outdoor concert, it began to storm. And as I was running to my cousins car I tripped and fell and the phone flew out of my hand. Interesting fact as well. The 4S was the only model that I ever had stolen also. So I actually had two of them. But the iPhones that I have had were the original, the 3GS, the aforementioned two models of the 4S, the 5S, the 6S plus, and currently I am using an 8+.
Got my 4s in 9th grade. Used it all the way until the 6s came out my senior year. Upgraded to that and I’ve been using that ever since until last week when I decided to go for the 11 Pro Max in a 256gb capacity.
When I first got my 4s it was amazing. I’d never had a smartphone like it until then (I had a cheap Motorola flip phone until that point). iOS 5 was good, albeit a tad buggy here and there and Siri lacked a lot with doing things. But for the tasks the commercials advertised, it work perfectly, I’d set alarms, reminders, and calendar events with no issues at all.
When iOS 6 came out (IMO the best version on the 4s) most every complaint I had from the previous iOS was taken care of and addressed in kind. I could now have Siri understand me better as dictation improved, the overall experience got a lot smoother for me and everything was just fluid and all was well.
The years that followed were not so kind, the bugs of 7 and constant crashing I had on 8 only got worse the moment 9 came out. The phone got so slow it wasn’t even funny, it started affecting my ability to even use the phone to make phone calls, it’s primary function as a phone. It was a nightmare. I’m amazingly glad that Apple didn’t make the same mistakes with the 6s and iOS since then. Even right now, my 6s with a new batter is performing just as well on iOS 13 as my 11 is for general use. My only wish is that Apple would just please go and allow me to sign iOS 6 for my 4s so I can use it from time to time without it being a headache and a half.
My friend “hey did you see the good news” me “sorry I’m buffering”
The latest update of iOS 7 worked flawlessly with the 4S. After it updated to 8, I couldn't do it anymore and been with Android since.
While on older Samsung Galaxy S phones, you are getting a problem thats the exact opposite of that of the iPhone 4s where the phones weren't getting long enough software support and then you ended up with a phone that still had very powerful hardware for its last software version, but unfortunately you couldn't update them any farther even though the hardware could easily handle newer versions of Android.
Thanks sir i will try
The third generation iPad should have been more successful. It honestly isn't too bad on ios except on a few apps. The retina display still looks good. Basic web browsing is fully fine. It just isn't that great in more modern games. Also, the iPad 3 had an a6 chipset.
Are they changed for iPhone 5 / iOS 10 or later? My iPhone 5 that I got second hand with iOS 10 as the final OS and it's still really usable and felt like just fresh phone tho
Imagine how bad the iPhone 6 would be on iOS 13. Not only would it make a second 4s but it’d make the second or third worst iPhone ever to worst due to all the issues it has. My friend uses a 6 plus and the display is starting to catch touch disease. I’m trying to avoid telling him his phones bouta die. Oof💀
Watching this on my old iPhone 4s on iOS 8.1.1
I wish i waited to get the 12pro because i have the 11pro Max and i really prefer that much more boxy design of the 12. It’s what i loved about the 4,5, and SE.
I won a white 4S right after it came out in a giveaway when I was 14. I’m a pretty big runner and usually at bigger races they do some kind of giveaway to the participants. That was an awesome feeling as a kid to win a brand new phone. It was my first smartphone and honestly I loved it. It’s sad to me how badly apple butchered the thing. Sometimes for nostalgia’s sake I’ll turn it on only to be disgusted by how bogged down it is. Really dig my XR tho, I don’t see myself upgrading for some time
I had the 3G, 3GS, 4, 4S, 5 and 6+, the 5S I skipped and the 2G wasn't available in my country. Everything except the 4 on launch day. The thing I liked the most about the 4 and 4S was the steel frame. It wasn't as shiny as the 12 Pro which is a good thing and it felt great to run the finger on it. Unfortunately the 5 was aluminum again. After I had the 6+ for a while I felt like Apple lost it because iOS 8 was respringing (show Apple logo for a minute and come back) all the time and the hardware felt way less premium than before, I switched to the Blackberry Passport which was so great as a communications device (not media consumption of course, I went to my tablet for that)
I use my iPhone 4S on 9.3.6 Although many apps are not supported anymore, I can still text, facetime, and browse the internet even though some websites are broken.
I used the iPhone 4s up until 2018 and while it wasn’t too bad it definitely was a bit slow and barely ran any games adequately. I upgraded to a used iPhone 5s for about a year and a half but then decided to go up to an XR. I only had the fingerprint home button for about a year and a half and I honestly miss is so much :( I wish apple would make a device with the finger print on the back similar to many androids so that screen space isn’t affected. Would be awesome! But back to my main point, the 4s is just so nostalgic for me since I used it from ages 12-16 😢❤️
