Will the iPhone 4s become outdated soon?

I'm an Android user that soon wants to switch to an iPhone. I've been hearing things about the iPhone 4 being outdated. Like updates or major gaming won't work on it. I'm planning on getting the iPhone 4s, but I'm worried it will soon too become outdated? Should I just pay the extra money for a 5?

Highely unlikely, It has been Updated to the newest iOS system recently via iTunes ~ I had my 2nd Generation iPod touch, and that only RECENTLY stopped getting updates, Not for another few years.

I think that it is worth it to pay an extra hundred for the 5. The 4s is becoming obsolete, it's almost 2 years old. Everything on iPhone 5 is so smooth. I love it. Plus, the 4s looks exactly like its predecessor and it looks kind of outdated. Or you could wait until the next iPhone comes out and get it or a discounted 5.

No.It'd serve a good purpose being Apple's budget device. I mean, it could still get the latest iOS updates.

  • Would i phone 5s get outdated and looked down as like the iphone 4? I want to buy an iphone because i Really need a new phone at the moment but i'm afraid that by next year they'll bring out an even better totally different one and what should i dooo.
  • Will iOS5 become obsolete soon? So I'm planning to buy a second hand iPhone 3Gs and I'll probably have it on iOS6 already. But I want to know how long apple will keep supporting iOS5/6 so that this phone doesn't go useless.
  • Why is everybody saying the iPhone 4S outdated? In less your going to buy my stuff don't judge on what product I want of course there are the newer iphone models on the market so what? But I just like the more stylish looking iPhone 4S honestly the more upgraded ones are a waste of money
  • When will the iPhone 4 get outdated? Okay, so I was planning on getting an iPhone 4 but I don't want it to be unsupported by the apps like what happened when I got an iPhone 3G. Every app I wanted to download required 3gs and above. How long before the iPhone 4 becomes like this?
