Hi, just wondered if anyone still has there iPhone 5 or older models and is keeping it now the 5S has been released.
Just its my birthday on 19 October and my old Nan has just told me she has bought me the iPhone 5 thinking it was the latest model. I haven't got the heart to tell her that it's old.
If anyone else has no intention of getting rid of theirs it'd make me and Nan feel a lot better come 29 days time.
Thanks

Not everyone is going to throw away a year old (maximum) phone.. Just because a slightly newer one has come onto the market.
I've got no intention of getting the latest model as there's nothing actually wrong with the iPhone 5 that would warrant an upgrade so soon.
Most people keep their phone for 2 years.
This is what's wrong with the world....
Are you 12?
Well unless you on Vodafone and O2 and want LTE.
Just be grateful your Nan is so generous.
The iPhone 5 is an excellent phone and the upgrade to the 5S is relatively marginal.
Dunno, I think he/she's trolling - asked the same thing a week or so ago about the Xperia Z/Z1
Was going to reply until I read that lol
So he/she posted that their nan bought them a Z/Z1 aswell?
Cool nan buying brand new phones every few weeks lol
Typed on my iphone 5:D
* yes, despite the wails of protest from Android advocates real techies can also own and enjoy using iPhones. Amazing eh?
I got my iPhone 4 when it was first released in 2010 and I kept it for 3 years.
I'd be more tempted to update my Nexus when the 5 appears, if there's a higher capacity version.
I am perfectly happy with my 4S, now running iOS7 with no issues. What I'm not so happy with is the O2 contract, but that expires in a few weeks and I'll likely move to Three.
Yes, there seems to be an opinion amongst the anti-Apple brigade that owners of any Apple products must go out and buy every single product.
I originally had a 3G but didn't upgrade till the 4 came out and then went on to the 5 which I currently have.
I saw no reason to get the 3GS and 4S between these models.
I think I'll wait until Apple get to the 6S before upgrading again.
You still haven't answered my question?
Are you 12? You sound seriously spoilt for a kid.
Haha wtf has age got to do with it.
FYI I'm 23 but very image and self conscious. The last thing I ever want to do is look cheap at the boxing events I go to. If that makes me spoilt then what effect does that have on you?
Yes, most of us have to pay for the bloody things. We don't get given them. iPhone 5 with iOS 7 is great. Enjoy it and stop moaning.
It doesn't make you spoiled, just incredibly vain, and a little bit desperate actually.
Anyway, I have my iPhone 5, and there is no way in hell I'd bother updating for an iPhone 5S.
Plus, if you're bothered about people looking at them, the 5 and 5S look identical apart from a slight difference in the grey.
