Is Jailbreaking my IPhone 4S a good idea or not?

I use lots of apps, especially games for me and my lad.

In simple terms can someone give me pros and cons of jailbreaking it, and their overall view

**disclaimer**
Jailbreaking an IPhone is perfectly legal

Added (1). Slows down the iphone
drains battery alot faster
---…

Is that because of the extra apps, or does the actual jailbreak do these?

Cons
warrenty void
slows down the iphone
drains battery alot faster

Pros
some ok themes

Why not? You can customise everything and get free apps. It voids the warranty but jailbreaking alone can't ruin the iphone. If you get any problems you can just restore it by plugging it in while holding the home button. Plus, if you have it on contract you'd just have to wait until your next upgrade if it were to go completely wrong. I think your best bet though, is selling that iphone and buying a galaxy s3, they are actually better.

  • What do you do with a good iPhone app idea but no money? I thought of a brilliant iPhone app idea. This idea is potentially worth millions (Of course it would be a big project to get started). The problem is that I have no money to hire programmers, and I definitely can't make it by myself. Any advice?
  • Used iphone on ebay, good or bad idea? Thinking of buying a unlocked iphone on ebay. Is this a good idea? Will I have probs with activation? Can I use straight talk with it?
  • Is trading a PSP 1000 for an iphone 3g a good idea? I'm trading someone my PSP 1000 that no longer reads memory sticks for his old iphone 3g 8GB. I'm looking for something to use as an apple-style mp3 player. Would it be a good trade? With the PSP I'm giving him a carrying case, charger, and a few games because he bought me lunch. With the iPhone, he's giving me a hard case, a charger, and a pair of skullcandy lowriders. Would you consider this wise or should i give less?
  • Is this a good idea for a cheap way to get the iPhone 5? I just thought of this idea. I currently have an iPhone 4 and I want an iPhone 5. There are no upgrades until May and I can't take that one. Is a good idea to add a new line for 10 dollars, Cancel my other line for 175$, add data for 35$ and then buying the iPhone for 200$. That will equal a little over 400$ and then selling my phone for 150$.So all I really have to pay is around 250$. Do you think this will work or will it mess up my family's account plan. Any suggestions?
