iPhone 4S: Which is the best carrier?
 

http://i.i.com.com/cnwk.1d/i/tim/201...4S_270x195.png

The recently announced iPhone 4S will be available not just for AT&T and Verizon, but also for Sprint. This means that for the first time, an iPhone will be available on three of the four major U.S. carriers. The iPhone 4S has a few notable improvements over the iPhone 4, like a faster dual-core A5 chip and an 8-megapixel camera that is capable of 1080p HD video capture. If you're a Sprint customer, you might be happy that you have an iPhone at all, 4S or not.

As far as we know, the iPhone 4S will have the same hardware across all three carriers because of a dual-mode CDMA/GSM chipset that gives it global cellular coverage. But just because it's the same hardware doesn't mean you'll get the same experience across the board. Carrier coverage fluctuates from region to region--AT&T might have poor performance in San Francisco, but great signal strength elsewhere. Data plans are different for each carrier, too, as is customer service and early-termination fees. Be sure to consider these points as you make your decision.

apple stock went down after iphone 4s announcement.

whole world was waiting for a new phone but yet they only get iphone4 with few HW upgrades. no innovation same foot steps as BB lulz all around

will wait for their true next gen phone (iPhone 5) and will assess my options

you might be waiting a while because rumour has it that Sprint has paid $20 billion to have iPhone 5 exclusive rights.

^ rumour is keyword. remember when "rumours" were that the iphone5 is coming out....... need i say more?

and as for the best carrier, imo its where you're going to use the phone and what your plan is like (price and features)

thats a bad deal for sprint, if they in fact paid that much to get iphone 5. because tides are def turning towards new devices/OS

i said rumour, because you stated rumour in your first message.....
