In the light of iPhone 4S announcement, I’m pretty sure that all of the frenzied iPhone fans would want to know its distinction from its predecessor, the iPhone 4. There's nothing more to the new model except for the iOS 5, SIRI voice enabled dual-core processor and the 8MP camera.
So here goes the comparison between these two in demand phones:
