I interviewed my roommate who was on a search for a new phone since his contract was up. He stated that \u201ctrying to find the \u201cone\u201d [smartphone] was so hard because I can\u2019t decide on which one to get.\u201d When I asked him which one he decided to get he said \u201ciPhone 4S.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now I can see why he would have gotten the iPhone 4S. First of all, it was a brand new phone that just came out this month. Also the internals on the phone have been revamped so that it can handle more strenuous activities and upgrade the quality of the overall phone. The camera has been upgraded to 8 megapixels which my roommate stated \u201cit could easily replace a $200 camera.\u201d Also iOS which is the iPhone\u2019s operating system has been upgraded so that consumers have even more options and features than ever before. One of the main features that came out for the phone was a voice assistant called Siri. It has an amazing and very futuristic feel to it because you can asked the phone \u201cwhat\u2019s the weather like today?\u201d and Siri will respond according to your location. It is basically a virtual assistant with artificial intelligence. The craziest part of it all is that it learns over time and adapts to the user.<\/p>\n<p>For my roommate, this was the perfect phone all he wanted was \u201csomething that was easy to use and future-proof.\u201d The iPhone 4S gave him all of that but he was also looking at the new Samsung Galaxy S2 which has the same specifications as the iPhone 4 but the operating system is Android powered by Google. The reason he chose the iPhone over the Galaxy S2 was solely based on the operating system. He likes iOS better because of the app selection, he stated that the iPhone has better apps than android. Overall he said the experience wasn\u2019t as bad as he thought and he couldn\u2019t be anymore happier with his decision.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Getting the most compatible and latest phone can be a hassle.
