**My Experience with the iPhone 4S**

I recently had the opportunity to try out the iPhone 4S and I must say, there are several things about this phone that I don't like. First of all, the camera roll feature is not as intuitive as it should be. Once I'm done taking pictures, I want to upload them to Facebook, email, or set them as a contact, but none of these options are available directly from the camera roll. Instead, I have to go and open each of those individual apps and then upload my photos from there. This is a bit of a hassle and not exactly what I would call user-friendly.

Furthermore, when it comes to customizing emails, the iPhone 4S doesn't allow for much in terms of customization. For example, I have multiple email accounts that I use regularly, but now all of those alerts are consolidated into one single alert, which can be a bit confusing. Additionally, there is no option to change the sounds on my emails, which used to be an important feature for me as some of my emails were marked as spam and had distinct ring tones associated with them.

The navigation system on this phone is also not ideal. The stock navigation app is lacking in terms of features, such as turn-by-turn directions with voice guidance. This can be a problem when driving or trying to give directions to someone else. I tried to set up my GPS to take me to McDonald's one time, and it was able to get the destination correct, but it wouldn't provide any verbal directions to help me navigate the route. It also requires me to physically read the next step at a 3.5-inch screen, which can be difficult while driving.

Another issue I have with this phone is the screen size itself. The 3.5-inch screen is just too small for my liking, especially when it comes to typing on the keyboard. Even in portrait mode, the keyboard is tiny and difficult to use, reminiscent of the old flip phones from back in the day. This makes it hard to send emails or text messages, as I have to rely on autocorrect to help me get words right.

Finally, my biggest gripe with this phone is its lack of customization options overall. From the navigation app to the camera roll and email features, there are just too many limitations that make me feel like I'm stuck in a rut. For example, when I want to send an email or upload a photo to Facebook, I have to go through hoops just to get it done. This is not exactly what I would call a premium smartphone experience.

**Conclusion**

While the iPhone 4S has its moments, there are too many things about this phone that don't sit well with me. From the camera roll features to the navigation system and screen size, there's just not enough customization or flexibility to make this phone feel like my own. Until Apple addresses these issues, I'm afraid I'll have to keep searching for a smartphone that truly meets my needs.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enyo what's up everybody it's your boy floss I'm back again with another video and today we're going to take a look at the iPhone 4S now this is the Sprint version before I get into that though let me just throw something out there real quick you know this is not a comparison video this is not an apple against Android video this just 100% unbiased Real review all right and y'all already know how I move if something is hot I'm calling it hot if the is whack I'm calling it whack so let's get right into it first let's take a look at the Box now if you ever bought anything from Apple you get a nice box nice quality presentation keep in mind for the iPhone 4S you're going to be spending 700 $800 or $900 depending on the gig size so presentation is important you get a nice quality box let's pop it open inside you get the phone now I decided to get the white joint instead because um I had the black one for so long I wanted to try something different so we moving out with the white version once you take the phone out get the usual books and you get the AC adapter get the USB connection and you get some headphones so that's it nice quality box nice classy presentation this is one of those boxes that you can hold down so when you're ready to sell the phone later put it back in the Box keep it looking brand new now let's take a look at the actual phone on the front you got a 3.5 in screen you got the front-facing camera VJ quality you got the speaker with the sensor on the bottom you got the home button all right let's take a look at the right side you got the volume up and down you got your sound switch so you could switch it on and off turn your vibrator you know turn your ringer on and off and once you switch this it turns all the sounds off so that's hot so you don't know you just one switch turn all the sounds off on the other side nothing on the bottom you got the space to plug it in and on the top you got the 3.5 mm headphone jack and you got the power button also on the back you got the Apple logo you know which is important you got a 8 megapixel camera with LED flash so that's everything around the phone now as usual y'all already know when I do phone reviews the first thing I like to do is talk about everything I don't like about the phone then we'll talk about everything I do like about the phone all right so I'm going to try to make this video a part one and a part two so we could get into everything cuz there's a lot of things about the phone that I'm not really feeling and all that but there's a lot of things about the phone that I'm definitely feeling all right so let's get right into that first if you get the phone with Sprint the first thing I don't like about this phone is there's no 4G all right so this is 100% 3G phone now if you ever used Sprint before you already know how the 3G is the 3G is not that great now keep in mind in a lot of cities you know you don't have 4G anyway but if you're somewhere like me in New York City and you you got 4G and you get used to using 4G phones then you got to go down to you know back down to just 3G it's going to hurt trust me it's definitely going to hurt so no 3G on the phone that's one thing I'm not feeling next something I'm not feeling about this phone it's not maybe it might not be a big deal to you but to me it's a big deal when you when you're looking at your emails or your call history you can't delete everything all at once and I'll show you what I mean by that let's pull up my emails now say I'm looking at my emails and I want to delete them I can just swipe right here and just delete an email or I can hit edit and you know start checking off a whole bunch of emails to delete and hit delete but there's no way to just select all of them now keep in mind if you got a lot of emails it's going to take a long time to delete your email history and just to give you an example look at my Gmail account and that's only because I don't got time to be you know individually checking swiping all of those emails I'm not really feeling that you know they I'm not I'm just not really feeling that same thing with the call history when you're looking at your phone and in your call history you can't just click all of them you got to swipe on or delete it or you can edit and manually and even when you hit edit you're still going to only do one at a time and delete one at a time so I'm not really feeling that feature about the iPhone definitely not next customization now the iPhone is definitely not the most customizable phone out and we talking about stock we're not talking about once you jailbreak it and you you know start doing a whole bunch of stuff we're talking about stock because a lot of people they're not going to jailbreak the phone anyway because they don't know how to do it and a lot of people you know they don't want to jailbreak the phone so when you're talking about stock customizing is not that you know not that great and I'll show you what I'm talking about there's no widgets now I don't know about you but I like widgets on my phone you know that I'm used to them and all that but whatever maybe you don't like them or whatever but there's no widgets and take a look at something else that's funny that I noticed look at the weather widget uh actually the weather app if you notice it says 73° now that's definitely not 73° out here in New York right now but it just stays at 73 degre look at your iPhone if you got one right now if you know somebody that got them call them up and ask them what does the weather say 73 which is strange because if you look at the calendar that's just an app also but yet the calendar has you know today's date on it so I find it weird that they couldn't make you know the weather show you the actual weather outside is that a big deal might not be to you but if you used to wedgets and all that then um it's kind of a big deal next the notification bar now don't now don't get me wrong the not the iPhone 4S has a notification bar but it doesn't show you the notifications you have once you look at the phone you got to physically swipe down so if I want to know if I got some you know some Facebook hits or some four square and all that I got to swipe down you know you can't just look at the top of the the phone is that a big deal might not be a big deal to you but I'm not really feeling it next FaceTime you know FaceTime you can only use over the Wi-Fi network now FaceTime is hot I like the way it works and all of that but you can only use it when you connected to a Wi-Fi which is kind of whack because most of the times that I want to FaceTime somebody is when I'm outside in the car or if I'm in the store or something I want to show somebody you know something live going down in the store I want to FaceTime them but you can only do it over Wi-Fi so not really feeling that next there's no Task Killer so let me show you what that means now the iPhone 4S has a nice multitasking feature you know you double click and you can see all your recently used apps but there's no way to get rid of them you know if you had a task killer you hit exit all and then once you do this again it'll be nothing so no matter what you're going to have all these apps on the bottom you can't get rid of them is that a big deal not really but if you got kids and all that and you want to give them your phone to play with you don't really want your kids knowing all the apps all the stuff that you was doing last because a lot of stuff you know you doing grown people stuff on it so not really feeling the the no Task Killer next the camera uploads let me show you what I mean by that now let's go to my camera roll real quick and and pick out a photo now say the other day I'm chilling up in the shop I'm getting my intake and all that stuff done and I want to you know upload it to Facebook and all that so everybody can see what's going on once I click on the menu I can only email message set it as a contact use it as a wallpaper I could tweet it or print it or save it to the camera room if you notice there's no feature for go+ no feature for Facebook no feature for Instagram I mean it's like if I want to send it to Facebook I got to literally go to the Facebook app and upload it from Facebook which is kind of whack because when you download a new app when you download path or you download Instagram whatever you get that's new on your phone it should have a feature so when you're in your camera roll you can automatically send it to that app but iPhone 4S doesn't have that feature so I'm not really feeling that next some more customizable stuff your emails now you're only going to get one alert for all the emails now I don't is that a big deal it might not be to you but for me I got Gmail I got AOL I got exchange you know I got all hot mail I got a whole bunch of different emails but every time I get an alert on this it's just one alert so I got to physically check my phone every time now if I had different alerts I would know for my Gmail that's important to me I have a specific ring tone and for stuff that's spam that I send it in my AOL on my hot mail I would know that I don't even got to check that because it's a spam email so you can't change the sounds on on the email and all that that's just little stuff here and there I don't really feel that you know you might not think it's a big deal but definitely not feeling it next the navigation now keep in mind I'm talking about stock we're not talking about going and purchasing you know four or five do apps stock navigation on this is garbage definitely garbage and I'll show you what I'm talking about let's pull up the map real quick now just for fun earlier I had put in the you know I want to go to McDonald's so I put in the you know into the maps if I want to use GPS yeah the GPS works but it's not turn by turn with voice and all of that you got to physically read the next step now try doing that on a 3.5 inch screen while you're driving all and you definitely gonna be having an accident trust me so the navigation on this stock is mad whack and last but not least the last thing I'm definitely not feeling about this phone which is the most important thing that I'm not feeling is the screen size you know 3.5 in screen is just not cutting it these days just not I mean it's just too small don't get me wrong it's a beautiful screen and all that but it's just too small and I'll show you example say I'm taking it to text messaging look at the size of this keyboard it's just tiny like my thumb covers my thumb actually covers half of the keyboard so you can imagine when I'm trying to type stuff I got to literally type on that letter and the same thing like when you in Facebook or for square and you want to click on a menu you can't just click it with your thumb or you got to click it with the tip of your finger the screen is just too small now some people saying okay just put it in um in landscape mode and type like this but my dudes the days of landscape typing is over they went out with all of the you know the my touch you know the the the remember we used to use the what was those old flip ones the um I forgot the name of it but y'all know what I'm talking about the flip up phones and all that nowadays ain't nobody the sidekicks remember when everybody was rocking Sidekicks and all that nobody ain't walking around typing like this no more all right my dudes don't do that them days is over right everything is portrait mode now and if you look at the keyboard the portrait mode is just it's just mad tiny it's just mad small all right so that's that's the major thing I don't like about the iPhone 4S that's my main thing that I'm not feeling about this phone is the actual size of the screen the 3 and 1 half in screen is just too small all right so I'm going to wrap up this right now that's everything I don't like about the phone I'm going to shoot part two right now and tell y'all everything I like about the phone everything that's hot about it and all that and I'll let y'all know what I think about the phone in the ho all right stand by for part twoyo what's up everybody it's your boy floss I'm back again with another video and today we're going to take a look at
