My wife and I are both thinking of upgrading to smart phones. We both have "non-smart" motorola flip phones. One is dying faster than the other- cannot hold a charge- even with a new battery. I have been looking on web sites and see a lot of good things written (some not so good) about iphones. I have not used any of them yet. We want them primarily for talking, texting, and pictures. Everything else is a bonus- I guess.
I have seen that the 4S is at 99.00- we are with Verizon right now-. I actually hate to spend that much when everyone is anticipating that a new phone will be out in June/ July. I am thinking that the 4S will drop in price and the 5 may be at 99.00.
Would I be missing much by going to the 4S now and having that for two years- or should I wait until the 5 drops in price? Is there that much of a difference? I would hate to buy the 4S now and then see it go down in 2-3 months. Playing games is not an issue- music-possibly but not a real priority. A good camera is kind of important.
I was told that if I buy it from Apple then the insurance is also 99.99 for two years- so that is another 200.00 for the two.
One other question-- should I expect the voice quality to be at least as good as my flip phone or not?
Sorry to be so long--- first smart phone and I am hoping that the iphone will be the best over the androids.
thanks so much
