Does iOs7 make the iphone 4 slow?

Hey so i have an iphone 4 cos my iphone 5 broke and i'm just wondering… If i update my iPhone 4 to the new iOs7 software will it make my phone slow?

Most Likely, large updates intended for the newer phone will slow older phones down.

Not at all! IOS7 is awesome! I just love it! I have it on my iphone5 and ipad2 and it's just great! A colleague of mine has it on her iphone4 and she has no complaints either. You're welcome.

Major OS updates for iphone, android, windows, BBs, etc… Are made for newer phones and their newer technology (CPU and RAM)… NOT OLD PHONES and OLD TECHNOLOGY!

When an EXTREMELY OLD phone (in technology terms, this means over 2 years old) get a new OS update, the old CPU and RAM was not designed for it. Therefore, it will run slower. And there's NOTHING you can do to fix that, other than upgrading to a modern phone!

Let me put this in a computer term… You have a copy of Windows 7… Awesome right? Well, you happy to have this 2001 computer gathering dust over there… Do you even think win7 is gonna work on it! LFMAO! This is why computer programs, computer games, and yes---EVEN SMARTPHONE APPS have "system requirements"… If you do NOT meet these requirements, then as my Chinese friend says---NO UPDATE FO U! You GO HOOM NOW!

Every wonder why Instagram won't won't on Android 2.3 or less? What Candy Crush won't work on iOS 4.2 or less? WHY IPHONE 2G/3G/3GS CAN't HAVE IOS7? WHY IPHONE 2G/3G CAN't HAVE IOS 6! SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS!

Iphone users ask this same freaking question every year… It never sinks in!

I just installed ios 6, why is my i4 slow?
I just installed ios 5, why is my i3GS slow?
I just installed ios 4, why is my i3G slow?

Gee. I dunno… LMFAO

  • Will they make iOS7 compatible with older products? I have a 4th gen iPod, and an iPhone 3GS (I was in need of a phone, it's not all that bad) but do you think they will make iOS7 suitable for even my iPod? My friend has it on her iPhone 5 and I like it, but I'm not a technical genius in any way, just a simple question.
  • Will jailbreaking my iphone 5s make it slow? I'm just going to get jellylock 7 that's all. I'm scare that my phone will break or stop working
  • Will jailbreaking make my device slow forever? I want to jailbreak my iphone 4 its a bit slow already but i wanted to know if it would slow my device forever as if i wannt to restore i want it fast again my friends have told me it will stay slow but i don't know someone tell me?
  • Why does my iPhone run slow? I have an iphone 3G currently on 3.1.3. I downgraded from ios4 because it was running incredibly slow, so I decided to downgrade to 3.1.3. But it is still slow with huge lag times, when opening an app. What shall I do? I have tried hard reset as well to no avail…
