lets face it SIRI which is supposed to b ios super intelligent assistant is partially DUMB in india as it doesnt even coonect to third party apps for searches.and the phone is USD850 or whopping INR42,000 for half this price we can get galaxy galaxy r(equal config xcept for cam) or galaxy s2 for INR30,000(better config than iphone 4s).no doubt its an awesome phone in US and UK but why r people in india mad about it?

People in India are only mad about because it is a an iconic device and brand status which is highly appreciated in India. Siri doesn't work with indian accent I think nor does it support location support. iPhone is great you prefer apps which has a huge collection. But the quality of apple devices is generally much better than any samsung device.

But yeah,android devices are much better for Indian people.

i think of IPhone 4S in Rs 15999 is extra powerful deal then yours. you ought to purchase it from the source below. I truthfully have used Iphone 4S and it became right into a super experience. Now I truthfully have Iphone 6 and its is astounding too. Iphone 4s is crammed with many constructive properties like Retina reveal besides it truly is upgraded to iOS 7.

Apple's market share in India is very small. Apple can't seem to be able to successfully crack the Indian market. I wonder why too. Siri works best in the US. It can't be used well in places outside the US. You can use Siri in India to set up an alarm or simple commands like that, but it can't be use to give you an address. Maybe people there dislike it because it is overpriced, and it has no alternatives coming from Apple.

You are aware that Siri is currently in beta right? As of now only works properly in the US, UK, France & Germany. So it working as well as you think it should in India is expected. And there is more to the phone than just Siri. iOS, the App Store, FaceTime, Game Center etc.

Apple brand name is kind of low now that they started their 4 and 3gs phones for cheap or free at bargain stores across the country. Anyways, you can get a super android phone for the same price of a 4s, I would steer you away from the 4s:

Even Steve Wozniak, co-founder of apple says the same thing, and says siri sux even in english:

With iphone you do not Adobe Flash, which is required to properly view many websites. Also you cannot expand memory with iphone once you run out of space.



Android is the better choice, that is why it leads the smartphone market today despite apple selling the 4 and 3gs for cheap or free.

No doubt apple is expensive in India but still there are many Apple Fans out there who are ready to buy apple at any cost.

iphone remains a brand just like ipod and mac computers and laptops.

Thats why the rich and brand crazy people go for it.



It does have good quality and performance but yes, it doesnt

make sense in India.
