Anonymous, 02 Feb 2020It is actually Aluminium as Aluminium has a better heat dissipation when the phone gets hot. Dude. The Phone's chassis is made of stainless. Ask apple, all iPhone 4 models (including the 4S) had stainless steel borders, with glass on the front and back.

Funny, cause it was none of them. Not a camera nor a display powerhouse.I can't help my self bringing the Nokia N8 that was better in every aspect then iphone 4 or 4s, so, i do not see the moniker "powerhouse" more like Trabanthouse behind Audihouse.

Galaxy S was launched with a super amoled display of 480 x 800 pixels so stopGalaxy S - 223ppi, terrible color accuracy, pentile arrangement creating a visible texture in most colors, high susceptibility to burn in and accuracy decay... I thought those displays were awful.

iPhone 4 is still the Steve Jobs-era Apple. The company is far more successful today but their eye to detail and creativity is lost. Apple doesn't seem to care about the details anymore. Tim Cook doesn't have the OCD for that. He's a bean counter.

Apple needs to rehire Scott Forstall. Tim Cook lacks any charisma. The only reason they continue to succeed is so many people are stuck with their ecosystem while Apple creates more subscription services to keep them there.

The magic from Apple is long gone since Jobs died. I'm now rooting for a market crash with the mobile industry. If the market does crash, it means fire sale. We can purchase flagships for a fraction of their current price. No phone is worth more than $500 to me.

[deleted post]Nah, it just seems like I'm talking to sheeps. Once a sheep, always a sheep. No matter what is wrong with the product, the sheep stands high.

4s was the fix for the 4 problem. And without the antenna issue.
