As you can see while the iPhone 4S continues to have its strengths, espeically its small size and the large App Store. Nokia, however, has better battery life and software features. In addition, Nokia has a better screen technology, albeit not the highest pixel count. Nokia is also very competive in its camera, and processor. And though it is subjective the unibody design of the 800 is much better. And this pushes what Nokia is known for, good cameras, good durable designs, and the best antennas. The iPhone is also a great design but aluminum is not the friend of the attennas, and the iPhone 4 had major reception issues that the iPhone 4S had to address.
