If you own an iPhone 4S, don’t install iOS 8

iOS 8 has been released to the millions of iPhones, iPods, and iPads around the world, including devices as old as the iPhone 4S. However, the update isn’t necessarily the best for all devices out there. Even though the iPhone 4S is compatible with the new update, it offers reduced features, slower boot times, weaker performance, and a generally lower quality experience than iOS 7.

The iPhone 4S was released back in 2011 as the latest and greatest iPhone, but three years of advancement has turned Apple’s flagship smartphone into a distant memory, discontinued as of September 9. While iPhone 4S owners can still take advantage of the iOS 8 update that shipped with Apple’s new iPhone 6, a number of issues have risen that make the device perform worse than keeping iOS 7 on it.

For starters, a number of features didn’t make it to the iPhone 4S, including Touch ID, AirDrop, and Open GL ES 3.0. These features didn’t make it because the iPhone 4S lacks the necessary hardware to handle these capabilities, such as a fingerprint reader.

When it comes to raw performance, the iPhone 4S’s A5 processor has nearly half the processing power of the iPhone 6’s A8 chip, making iOS 8 run much more slowly than iOS 7 for the device. According to speed tests performed by Ars Technica, the iPhone 4S takes nearly three seconds longer to boot, twice as long to boot Safari and generally longer to boot any other applications.

So should you upgrade right away to iOS 8 if you own an iPhone 4S? Maybe not. Apple usually releases iOS 8 updates several weeks after launch that address early bugs, as well as generally improve performance, especially for older iPhones. It might be worth waiting if you don’t need the new features of iOS 8 to wait and see what Apple does to improve performance for Apple’s aging iPhones.

It’s the end of the road for these two iPhone models

Apple iPhone 6S Plus

Seeing your favorite handheld gaming device in a retro store has a unique way of making you feel old, but Apple might have topped it. According to the company, the iPhone XS Max and iPhone 6s Plus are now "vintage." They join the ranks of the iPhone 4 and even the iPad Pro 12.9-inch model.

It's not wholly unexpected. Apple declares a device vintage after five years, and that means it becomes more difficult to have that device repaired or to find replacement parts for it. Obsolete is applied to products that are more than seven years old, but sometimes certain variants get that label early.

That's why we've tested 10 of the most popular options on Android and iOS. Check out the full rundown with all the must-know details.

The best iPhone 15 cases in 2024: our 20 favorites

A green iPhone 15 in a bush.

Even though Apple has launched the iPhone 16, last year's model isn't going anywhere yet. In fact, the iPhone 15 is now a better buy than ever since Apple is selling it at a lower price — and you can find even deeper discounts online and from many carriers.

The iPhone 15 marked a watershed transition in Apple's standard iPhone lineup. It was a significant jump ahead of its 2022 predecessor, packing in the most significant camera improvements for a standard model since the iPhone 11 adopted the dual-lens camera design in 2019. That put it ahead of its time, and it's still a compelling choice against this year's iPhone 16, especially if Apple Intelligence isn't your cup of tea.
