Hi Carol

Certainly from my point of view, I find it pretty straightforward to answer
and end a call using my iPhone 5, much easier than it ever was on the 4.
Mind you, I have got wise to iOS since those days.  The 4S will probably
drop off next year, though this is my guess not fact!

Telorion is certainly good from a tactile perspective when you are out, or
in a noisy environment, and you can drop out of it and go to Android if you
wish.  It is good to have options.


Kind regards,

I'm wondering also, Richard. I love my iPhone 4S but now I have to decide 
whether to upgrade or buy something else because I think the IOS for the 4S 
is not to be upgraded any further.  The TellOrion is a bit of a temptation 
to me because the one thing I really do not like is having to use the iPhone

in crowded, noisy places.  (I'm not a great fan of earphones all the time.) 
The other rather annoying problem is that in recent versions it has become 
harder to answer and/or end a call and this is just getting to me, because 
that's what a phone must do!

Other that these niggles though, I love my iPhone for a number of apps and 
reading!
