And the battery life issue has *still* not been fixed. My wife had a 4 then upgraded to the 4S and hated the battery life in it. when she got the 5 it still wasn't great. Our regular 4's had twice the life of either the 4S or 5. (My daughter who got the 4S went back to her 4 becaue of it too) The wife still has the 5 but I may give her my Note when I get the other phone(s). She loves her iPhone but hates that it needs to be charged all the time.
hmmmm....interesting. i do remember my iphone4 having pretty good battery life. i've never owned the 4s or 5...i don't think they are any worse than the galaxy s2 though. i just recently changed to a new battery a few weeks ago. before that, it would last maybe 4 hours on standby. While playing games or watching youtube, it would turn off completely when at about 55% battery life. When i try to turn it back on, it says there' slike 2% left. The new battery helped a ton, but i can already tell it's fading fast.

i do take a lot of pics and video of my daughter, so i'm sure i'll get good use out of the 16gb.

i will get the 4s. i wonder if they will give me credit for the galaxy s2.

and i'll think about a case. ary has never dropped my phone, because she's never held it. no need for her to. lol
That is up to you, but kids love to play with phones and as she gets older she is going to want to use it more and more. Like to call her mom at night. I knew how to use a phone when I was 5, I use to call my grand parents.

Can't comment on the S2, never had one. My Note is fairly good, but not as good as the 4 by a long shot. It does have a ginormous screen, and 4G LTE and those are battery killers so I give a small pass on that. The 4S's were horrible. But your personal mileage may vary

good thing about her dropping it though, is it would only be a 2ft drop
