Very true! And I never tried anything beyond 7.0x on the 4 since I sold it. I believe Apple are the only company to support devices more than three or four years old.

I believe the iPhone 4 has the A4 chip which is a single core chip and the
A5 chip in the 4S is a dual core chip. Also, one should add that iOS 7.1
when it was released runs a lot better on the iPhone 4 so I don't think one
should automatically assume that iOS 8 will run slow on the 4S. Yes, it will
be missing some features which require the newer hardware of the iPhone 5S
and 5C (and of course the various iPhone 6 models), but that is nothing new.
One should also not forget that it is pretty nice that Apple supports
devices which are 4 years old with their latest iOS version.

Yes the 4s should work ok although it may lag in places and not all features
will be available as per usual. I remember running iOS 7 on the
4 I once had and it ran ok although was slow in places.

have some problem or other on older iPhones) but it is supported. I
recommend you wait a few days after the release to see how it works for
others' phones before upgrading.

Will this work on an IPhone 4S or will I be forced to upgrade to a 5S?
