The iPhone 4S available in 3 different ROM capacity size: 16Gb ($199), 32Gb ($299), and 64Gb ($399) with two color option, black and white. Except the ROM capacity, all iPhone 4S models has a same hardware specification like detailed in table below. In design, iPhone 4S is not much different with iPhone 4. Apple offers no design overhaul.
Apple upgraded the phone's camera from a 5-megapixel sensor to an 8-megapixel sensor, though, and the iPhone 4S will use the same dual-core A5 chip that the iPad 2 does. Watch the hardware and camera review below to see the iPhone 4S camera comparison.
4G capability? Forget it--Apple isn't going that route this time -check Motorola DROID RAZR 4G for 4G phone option-. We already knew about iOS 5 and its features for a while, but the inclusion of the Siri voice-activated software was a nice surprise.

iPhone 4S Hardware + Camera Review
iPhone 4S Speed Test: AT&T vs Verizon Wireless
iPhone 4S CNET Editor's Review:
The good: Apple's iPhone 4S has a faster processor and an upgraded camera, all the benefits of iOS 5, and a useful and immensely fun voice assistant. Call quality on the Sprint model is admirable, and the data speeds, while certainly not 4G, get the job done.
The bad: It's about time we get a larger screen.
The bottom line: The iPhone 4S isn't the king of cell phones, but it's part of the royal family nonetheless. Even without 4G and a giant screen, this phone's smart(ass) voice assistant, Siri, the benefits of iOS 5, and its spectacular camera make it a top choice for anyone ready to upgrade.
The HTC Rezound for Verizon Wireless combines power with art, emphasizing its beautiful 720x1280-pixel display and Beats audio technology together with its 1.5GHz dual-core processor and 32GB out-of-the-box storage space. With Verizon's 4G LTE network, the Rezound can download content from the Internet as fast as it can process a file or shoot 1080p HD video. The HTC Rezound also equipped with Micro-USB/MHL port, that means it can be hooked up to an HDMI adapter so you can watch your phone's videos on the big screen.

CNET Review:
The good: The HTC Rezound has a gorgeous 4.3-inch 720p HD display, a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, an 8-megapixel rear camera with dual-LED flash, a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, and Verizon's 4G/LTE speeds. It ships with a pair of Beats earbuds along with a Beats Audio algorithm designed to enhance audio quality.
The bad: The HTC Rezound is quite bulky and call quality could be better. The Beats Audio software can only be toggled in the Music app.
The bottom line: While it may have a hefty build, the HTC Rezound's beautiful display, commendable performance, and multimedia-rich features make it a top phone for Verizon customers.
