I thought I heard a few people saying that for the 4 it's not such a good idea, minimum 4s and up seeing as it is a bit more of a resource hog (to be expected with more features). |
Personally I have an iPhone 4, I can say that the update didn't cause any noticable slowdown in the speed of the OS itself. Maybe if you would put them side-by-side, but it's definitely not slow enough and there's no annoying stutter to ignore what the update has to offer. Some features like Airdrop and the 'dynamic background' aren't supported on mine though unlike on my father's iPhone 5 (don't know how that works with 4S's).
The thing that is definitely noticable is the lower battery-life however. I end the day with a lot less life left in it than I had with iOS6. Could even be up to a couple dozen percent less. Personally that's not really a problem for me, because I can recharge it at the end of every day. If you're not able to for whatever reason then it may be better to skip the update.
