History

The iPhone 4s is the fifth generation of the iPhone, a device that combines a widescreen iPod with touchscreen, mobile phone, and internet communicator. It maintains the exterior design of its predecessor, iPhone 4, but houses a series of improved hardware specifications and software updates compared to the previous model. The integrated software and hardware changes support the introduction of new user interfaces and features by Apple. The highlights include an intelligent voice assistant called Siri, independence from the personal computer, cloud-based data (iCloud), and an improved camera system. A selection of the device's features can be controlled through voice commands. The iPhone 4s was presented at Apple's Let's Talk iPhone event on October 4, 2011 in Cupertino, California. Apple began receiving pre-orders for the iPhone 4s on October 7, 2011 in seven initial countries (United States, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Japan) with an initial delivery date set for October 14, 2011 and available the same day for direct in-store sales in these countries. It was released in 22 additional European, American, and Asian countries, including Ireland, Mexico, and Singapore on October 28.
