Funny how everyone has managed to avoid mentioning the real improvement: less digital noise.

The warmer look of the 4S picture is not "better" -- that's just a difference in white balance.

I like the way colors look on the 4s. More natural it seems.

Actually, without being there it's hard to know which white balance setting is correct for the lighting conditions. Although auto white balance is always hit or miss except for general outdoor unshaded lighting.
