iPhone 4s Repair

The iPhone 4s is Apple's 5th iteration of the iPhone. Announced on October 4th, 2011 at the Let's Talk iPhone event, the 4s shares the same body styling as its predecessor, the iPhone 4, but includes a series of software and hardware updates. It features both CDMA and GSM technology, making it a world phone. Repair of this device is straightforward, and requires screwdrivers, prying tools, and patience.

You can identify the iPhone 4s by one of the following model numbers etched into the back case:

• A1387
• A1431

The iPhone 4s features a flat glass front and back with flat stainless steel edges. Circular volume buttons and a ring/silent toggle switch are situated on the left side. A SIM tray is located on the right side for GSM models only. The power button and aux port are on the top side.

The iPhone 4s has a black or white front and back with silver edges.
