    Well it's up to you because I have the i5 and I am enjoying it but some people may have different opinions on it saying there is no different from the 4s

    Yes most definitely very well worth the upgrade. I had the 4S and loved it but I think the 5 is much better.

    There are so many different variables when making that call. You have to evaluate all those variables from what you want out of life.

    Personally I do not want to be tied into a contract. Just my trigger. I had a 4, so surfed the web until I was able to get a 4S for the $ I wanted to pay. The 5 is just too much money for me to pay and not be on a contract. Again, these are my variables which influence my decisions. Works for me, might not work for anyone else.

    I am using the 4s right now and can see your hesitation.

    I look at it this way.

    The ip5 is an improvement to the 4s many ways.

    I will be updating as soon as i can get my hands on one !

    Some are waiting for the 5s in approx 12 months time.

    I purchase my iphone's as sim free so am not locked into any contracts but submit this is an expensive option and not for all !

    Well here's some questions to ask yourself:
    • Do you often find the screen being too small?
    • Are you afraid of the break-ability of the 4S compared to the 5?
    • Do you often wish you had faster data speeds?
    • Do you want slightly better battery life? (This might be an individual situation, but my 5 gets better life than my 4S ever got)
    • Do you want a more future-proof device?
    • Do you have the money to do it?
    • Do you ever find applications/webpages load too slow, or see a lot of lag?
    Those are some of the improvements of the 5 over the 4S, so if you answered yes a lot, you may find the 5 to be worth it. If you are fine with the performance, speed, battery life, etc of the 4S, it probably won't be much of an upgrade.

    Food for thought
