Do not upgrade to iOS 8 from my iPhone 4S

Yesterday, finally came out the full version of iOS 8You are happy you can install on your iOS-device. But it is worth noting that in 2014 it was dedicated to the iPhone 4S, as a year later, he, like the iPhone 4, will not be able to upgrade and go on a holiday. But while we do not advise you to update the iPhone 4S to iOS 8, the problems that followed the installation iOS 7 on the iPhone 4Still fresh in the memory.

iPhone 4S was released almost 3 years ago, and he's, like, continue to keep up with his younger brothers, but technically, alas, it is not possible to maintain some iOS 8 features such as Touch ID, AirDrop and Metal.

Its performance is 4 times smaller than the iPhone 5S, not to mention the newest generation of sixes. In iOS 8 applications run slower on it, spending 50% more time to load. Animation looks very twitch due to dropped frames, moreover, periodically hangs smartphone.

And a small remark. iPhone 4S is the latest smartphone with a 3.5-inch screen, which can be upgraded to iOS 8. Once this size is considered a golden rectangle smartphone, and then the screen started to increase, gathering new rows of icons. And now, look at the application in the iPhone 4S, the first thing you caught my eye - it is an insufficient amount of free space. When typing a message, you will notice how little space is left on the screen for most of your message.

Yes, now you can update your old iPhone 4S to the new iOS 8 and enjoy a lot of nice new features: a variety of keyboards and fun widgets. But they are losing speed and constant freezes? Anyway, no matter how strong your desire was not to upgrade, chances are you worth the wait at least a version of iOS 8.1, which should be made the necessary changes to the normal operation of iPhone 4S.
