QUOTE(hacken @ Dec 7 2011, 12:38 PM) its not that we CAN'T afford to pay the plan. Its a matter of is it worth? just because of the phone u had to incurred additional monthly phone bill for 24 months..is that worth? normal prepaid 1 month 30, u pay more than double or triple the monthly fixed cost..not worth long term. 1 year is enough dude..

QUOTE(nimrod323 @ Dec 7 2011, 10:46 AM) ok who's going for the midnight launch? at least if there are a few of us, we can take care of the queue and going to the toilet and food wouldn't be an issue. I might queue up early for the midnight launch, maybe from noon onwards. I agree. Will be flying back to KL for this. Maybe we can all go together

QUOTE(kahjye @ Dec 6 2011, 08:18 PM) i dont think 4s`s demand is higher than 4 if wanna compare. QUOTE(AndrewTan007 @ Dec 7 2011, 02:33 AM) Hey guys, I've been following this thread for quite some time, but this is the first time I'm posting. It's great to see everyone so excited about the new iPhone 4S. I'm going to get one for me, and my family members as well. iMessage will be great for us. After trying out BB OS, Android, WP7, Symbian, MeeGo, and iOS; I've finally decided to go back to my first love - the iPhone. However, I've been following some other forums and websites, and I've noticed a few problems with the 4S. One, is the battery life, which is s'posed to be fixed with the 5.0.1 update. Any 4S users experienced any difference with this update? Also, the most worrying problem for me is the display. Apparently, the display on the 4S is more yellowish, and washed out compared to the 4 - https://discussions.apple.com/thread/338556...tart=0&tstart=0Here's another - http://mashable.com/2011/10/18/yellowgate-...tint-to-screen/And another - http://9to5mac.com/2011/10/18/iphone-4s-te...-and-lots-more/I could go on and on, but I'd appreciate feedback from you guys who've gotten your 4S' already. I'm sure we'd all like to know if these problems are widespread or just exaggerated by the media, as usual. Thank you  Nope. No yellowish for my 4S. Battery problem is there though. 5.0 was fine with me. 5.0.1 it went bad. i know coz i can compare with my gf's 4

Re: iPhone 4S screen tint Oct 17, 2011 11:03 PM (in response to Snowglider) A quote from "savior1974" on macrumors.com stating the warmer colors are intentional and BETTER. For anyone that has two different iPhone's with different Screen colors (cooler/blueish vs warmer/yellowish) Bring up this picture on both iPhones, and you will notice the difference in black levels (contrast ratio) between the two screens. http://oi51.tinypic.com/adm8b7.jpg You will notice that the one with the warmer whites, actually shows the shadows of the pumpkin in more detail that the cooler whites version. Also if you look at the shadows eyes, they are more pronounced on the warmer than on the cooler screen. This means that the warmer colored screen is actually calibrated better. Thoughts?

From those links posted, I actually feel those pics with the so-called "yellow tint" actually looks nicer =X. Colours appear warmer. The one which was supposedly normal look more like "bluegate" lol
I dunno if mine has the problem as I've been using an anti glare film which really takes the shine off the retina display. Gonna change into a crystal clear film and compare it with my mates 4S and 4 once I've got the time.

Perhaps this is related: Apple has changed the polarization of the glass on the front of the iPhones. I just discovered this (for myself anyhow; undoubtedly bloggers figured it out long ago). On my 3GS and 4, if wearing polarized glass-lensed Raybans or such sunglasses, you would see a mildly darkened screen when the phone was in the veritcal orientation, but a very darkened (unusably so) screen in the horizonal orientation. (Interestly, the iPads, both 1 and 2, are polarized in the opposite dirction, wokring w/ sunglasses in the horizontal mode.) But w/ the iPhone 4S, I note something other than basic polarization at 90 degree increments. It seems to align (thus darken a bit, but actually more of a color distortion that mutes all contrasts?) in a diagonal aspect. Both horizontal and vertical are quite visiable at 90 degrees with sunglasses on (and without). No, I'm not whining about seeing these in the sun. There are separate threads for that. Anyhow, perhaps that polarization is what some of us are noting. Yes, I realize it isn't the case we are all complaining about the different shades of whites and contrasts when wearing sunglasses, but perhaps the new polarization (or polarization replacement) is the source of at least a subset of these effects that some of us are sesing? Just a thought.
