Smart Phone

I just bought an iPHone 4S. Does anyone know where I can get a hard copy User Guide? You know---in booklet form. I don't want to print up the User Guide offered as software. It's too long---taking up about 175 pages. The Guide should be printed by Apple.

There are almost no guides printed anymore. Just read the PDF you already found.

Have the same problem often enough with manuals and printing. One suggestion is email to a office supply and drug stores will print for ya. For me a office depot is 10 cents a sheet in black and white. its a quarter for color. Also request if ya do, to print on both sides in book form. Cheaper than printing.

If ya email it, it will ready by the time ya there. or put on a micro drive and take it there. its done right now.
and yes. they do pdf etc.

They don't have printed manuals, either view it online or print it out.

Thanks for the suggestions.
I may end up buying one of the magazines or books covering that product.

iPhones are fairly easy to use and figure out without the manual. I have never read a manual, although things are a bit less intuitive with ios7.
Not sure what your experience level is with the iPhone, but here in Australia they offer free one hour workshops in the Apple store where they teach you the basics of operating your iPhone. I am sure there are a lot of good tutorials on youtube as well, probably easier to follow than reading a manual.

I also never had a problem with Samsung. Never used a manual. But I will switch to Sony, the xperia Z1s once it is out: see here

I bought a book. Now it's half intuition, half book. I find I can get there most of the time simply hands on. The book serves to confuse and is a dead end.
