Apple iPhone 4 reviews from CNET editors

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Apple iPhone 5 The bottom line: The iPhone 5 completely rebuilds the iPhone on a framework of new features and design, addressing its major previous shortcomings. It's absolutely the best iPhone to date, and it easily secures its place in the top tier of the smartphone universe. Read Review	$199.99 to $999.99

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Apple iPhone 4S - 16GB - black (Verizon Wireless) The bottom line: The iPhone 4S isn't the king of cell phones, but it's part of the royal family nonetheless.

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Apple iPhone 4 - 32GB - black (AT&T) The bottom line: With the iPhone 4, Apple again shows that it is a powerful player in the smartphone wars. It won't be for everyone, the call quality and reception vary if you don't use a case, and AT&T's network remains a sticking point, but the handset's striking design, loaded feature set, and generally agreeable performance make it the best iPhone yet. Read Review	$520.00

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Apple iPhone 4S - 16GB - white (Verizon Wireless) The bottom line: The iPhone 4S isn't the king of cell phones, but it's part of the royal family nonetheless.

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Apple iPhone 4 - 16GB - black (Verizon Wireless) The bottom line: The Verizon iPhone 4 has much in common with its AT&T counterpart, but varying features and different performance give it enough room to stand apart. It won't vastly change your iPhone experience, but we welcome the consumer choice that it brings. Read Review	$394.95

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Apple iPhone 4S - 64GB - white (Verizon Wireless) The bottom line: The iPhone 4S isn't the king of cell phones, but it's part of the royal family nonetheless.

Read Review	$639.00

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Apple iPhone 3GS - 32GB - black (AT&T) The bottom line: The iPhone 3GS doesn't make the same grand leap that the iPhone 3G made from the first-generation model, but the latest Apple handset is still a compelling upgrade for some users. The iPhone 3GS is faster and we appreciate the new features and extended battery life, but call quality and 3G reception still need improvement. Read Review	$362.99

Editor's rating: 4.0 stars	Apple iPhone 4S - 64GB - black (AT&T) 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.
