What to expect from the update to iOS 8.0.2 on an iPhone 4S

ios8

There has been a lot of discussion about the iPhone 4S, regarded as a huge leap in Apple's software and yet last in line now, remember that the iPhone 4 disappears and the 4S will remain more in the interest of those who maintain the terminal and do not require more, than for Apple's motivations.

Well, a few days ago it was commented that the Updating to iOS 8 on iPhone 4s could backfire, leaving the system extremely slow. Today I bring you a comparative video in which we can really see the variation in performance with one and the other software.

They would have to be taken into account two questions before to reference the video as an absolute truth:

  1. Compare iOS 7.1.2 and iOS 8.0.2, We all know that iOS 8 and 8.0.1 have given some other problem and it may be that this latest version has also been promoted towards the performance of older terminals such as 4s, since the group that still takes advantage of it is important.
  2. On the other hand, the comparison is made with terminals that they only have the operating system installed, without pictures, music, apps, games, etc.

Now everyone to make their assessment and if you are one of those who update from this model, do not hesitate to share your experience with us.

    Personally I have the 4s and honestly in my case I have not noticed anything different in terms of slowness or anything except for some apps that are not updated yet, now I will make the jump to the iPhone 6 plus, since I usually skip one or two generations , for the rest, what was said, 4s running as usual

      Good afternoon roughly, I have installed the IOS 8.0.2 in the Iphoe 4s and I am very sorry, it is very slow, it loses coverage, and the battery lasts very little. Does anyone know how to go back to IOS 7.1.2

  2.   Domenec said

    Well, on my ipad2 the results were disastrous. Good thing I was able to go back to 7.0.2.

    I updated my ipad 2 and had to go back to 7.02 but now with 8.0.2 everything is great

    1.    Israel said

      How do I do the same.

  4.   Noris said

    I waited for 8.0.2 and yesterday I installed it, I hardly find differences. Let's see this week of regular use with calls and emails with the battery responds, but in principle everything is fine, now to enjoy….

    The 4S must have been a huge leap in hardware. The jump in software in any case would be given by the version of ios that was released

    And I am so happy with my 4s with ios 5, it goes smoothly and gives it a hundred laps in performance, battery and everything to ios 7.x and 8.x
    And with the original google maps not the kk of the new one ...

      you are nostalgic 😉

    I have updated iOS 8 and 8.0.2 with my 4s, with iOS 8 I have had problems with the battery and the slowness of the device, with 8.0.2 it is luxurious, but now I have a problem that is not solved and that is that in the Safari videos I don't see the Apple TV icon I have to go to the control center to activate it, does anyone know why this is?
    I have everything configured with Wi-Fi enabled AirPlay etc….

    1.    obileaks said

      The same thing happened to me, but not with ios 8, and I solved it by restarting the apple tv and in case the flies also the iphone and the ipad, after restarting everything deluxe

  9.   Sarita said

    Terrible update for the 4s the apps load almost to the minute, fb opens and some news is downloaded and then it crashes. What a bad idea to have updated it and how opportunistic Apple so that we have to change phones

  10.   Manuel said

    It lacks one more turn of the screw with the 4s, some details like the one Sarita comments on Facebook. The same thing happens to me, I do not know to what extent iOS 8.0.2 can be responsible, or it is already a matter of the app itself that will need some retouching too, because I open Facebook with Safari and it is luxurious. But if it is true that they lead us headlong to spend our rooms the very c… ones …….

    I have an iPod 5 and iOS 8 is bad for me!
    That look is worse than android! -_-
    Slow for everything, and frame drops all the time, poor performance in general.

  12.   Miguel said

    I haven't updated it yet, I'm still with 7.1.2
    but with some apps it starts to get a little stuck or it takes me out of the application. How much is it advisable to update the new version. I would appreciate a lot 🙂

  13.   Andreu said

    Well, I have updated to 8.0.2 and my 4s is perfect for me. Updates are always made via ITunes

  14.   Caesar Salad said

    Has anyone had trouble trying to install the 8.0.2 update on a 4S? I accept the terms and conditions by clicking Agree and there it stays, nothing happens.

  15.   Ariel veli said

    Well, I have installed on iPhone 4S and iPad mini and hey the mobile runs super well, but on the iPad it has caused me many problems, my Facebook, iCloud, Google, Mail sessions have been disconnected, and it is very slow. IOS 8.0.2 is supposed to be more appropriate for the iPad than for the 4S, but it turned out the other way around.

  16.   Fede said

    I updated it on the iPad and the truth is a disaster since it takes time, it is checked, it disconnects, a shame so on the iPhone 4S I don't know whether to install it, if someone knows how to get it out of the iPad, tell me. IOS 8.0.2 I already hate you, come back Steve jobs please.

  17.   ana said

    I also updated it on my ipad2 and you cannot imagine how I regret it. Comparing with the previous one, it is very very slow, the ceces pages close on their own and it is difficult for them to open a lot. If I could backtrack, I sure would.

  18.   obileaks said

    I keep saying, on a personal level, that my 4s is perfect, except apps that have not been updated, regarding Facebook that someone said that it was closing or taking time, I think it is the same problem with Facebook, since on the ipad air the facebook is fatal, everything else is perfect, even on the ipad 3 is going well. Personally I think they are specific problems

    Hi, I just updated my iPhone 4s to iOS 8.0.2, and I notice a great improvement compared to iOS 8.0, but now I have a problem, I have the notification in update settings, and I go to see if there is something and nothing, I have tried many things but I still do not remove the happy red icon with the "1". Has it happened to someone else? Do you know what i can do?
    thanks!

    1.    David quintero said

      The same thing happens to me and I have not found a solution ...

  21.   Ana said

    I am wrong with the 8.0 update, the Whats app closes and I cannot read the messages, what can I do?

  22.   obileaks said

    To those who are doing badly, how have you updated? Via OTA or via iTunes? It could be that, I did it through iTunes restoring first and then backup and it works for me, maybe that's it

  23.   ipad2 said

    my experience with the updates that have appeared over time, the next apple device that I buy I will leave it and I will NEVER update, because in each update the device goes worse

  24.   Miguel said

    I still haven't updated it, I have 7.1.2 and it works for me Bn but I'm going to risk updating it to 8.0.2 to see what happens, but I'm just going to restore my iPhone 4s and it gets updated right there

  25.   mihace mirta said

    Luckily I could not think of updating 4s, it is the first time that I say better I do not update IOS just in case and I think I hit it because of the comments that I read.

  26.   Yelitza said

    Hello, I just updated my 4S to 8.0.2 and I can say that I have had no problems so far, I updated it via iTunes without any complications. Of use I can tell you that it has not slowed me down at the moment, rather I have felt very good and fluid.

    Even so I will be aware of its operation in the course of the days.

  27.   alexis sarracino said

    I have the doubt, they say that the keyboard covers a lot of space, and that the apps take time to open you who already have 8.0.2 installed, what do you think?

    1.    Fede said

      It's a shit, I put it on ipad3 and it gets moronic so just in case I won't install it on the iPhone or fart.

  28.   adymarh said

    I have 4s and I update it, I regret it since it hangs or takes time to open the applications, I don't know what to do 😟

  29.   Francis Cerrillo said

    Does anyone know how to go back to IOS 7.1.2

  30.   sandra said

    I updated my ipad 2 to version 8.0.2 and it is a disaster. Very slow, it hangs, mercadolibre works very badly (I cannot see the photos). Does anyone know how to go back to IOS 7.1.2

  31.   maria said

    I updated my iphone4s with version 8, a disaster, I have no wifi, watsup is deleted and google app too, with 8.02 it did not solve anything, out of warranty 2 months ago, what a shame, fix it will cost me 200 euros with apple, that in reality today the 4s 16gb has a value of 88 euros (according to movistar) ... Go that panaroma, both Apple ... Let them come at once with a universal solution, or an interesting change ... .., and so, forget it back to 7 !! It does not leave you, also you can spoil the phone forever.

  32.   Paula said

    A crap all slower I can not update games like plants vs zombies, the internet crashes I want to go back to 7 or they improve so that they ask for updates without going back

  33.   Karen said

    There I put the iOS 8.0.2 on my iPhone 4s and this one from the turnip is very slow and almost does not grip the wifi well and my iPad that is fourth generation in it is fine I grip it super but on my iPhone not what could I do for return it to iOS 7 alluda plis 😭

  34.   Marcelo Carrera placeholder image said

    bad decision I made when updating my 4s ... it sticks, a square that says active zoom appears from time to time, the bad thing that I updated it when it could no longer be reversed, at least I think so, and my mistake was that I should have informed myself first .
