Bright Hub: Even if you weren't wowed by the new hardware that distinguishes the iPhone 4S from the iPhone 4, you couldn't fail to be impressed by the introduction of the all-helpful Siri. Or could you? Seems like not everyone is a fan of this killer feature, but why?
Apple ultimately decided to resolve these six-year-old court proceedings and agreed to pay $15 to each impacted iPhone 4s holder.
The Verge: All devices from the iPhone 4S to the iPhone X are impacted.
Fair play to them. On the ethical hacker side of things I would use the hack as leverage against Apple to continue to support their equipment. As they just dropped support for their iPad mini2’s etc. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with them, they work perfectly fine but are now blocked from receiving security updates etc. So the consumer is forced to purchase a new product that does the exact same thing.
Apple is on the receiving end of a class-action lawsuit from disgruntled iPhone 4s owners. The suit, filed by Chaim Lerman and more than 100 others, alleges Apple's iOS 9 update severely degraded the smartphone's performance both in terms of third-party apps and core functionality.
Agreed, but i feel that Siri is a gimmick that everyone seems to love right now, but it'll definitely wear off.
Whoops double post
Haha I love the videos around the web of it messing up. I should get an 4S just to here Siri cock it up.
siri was and is just a big gimmick to get people to buy the 4s, only apple could work that kind of magic.
