I got an iPhone 4 White ( unlocked ) about 14 days ago, so today is my last day to get rid of it to say.... and I just literally heard that they are announcing a new iPhone within the next week or so october 4th right ? Should I return it , or should I suck it up, and keep it ?


Dave...
 
Return it. Bear in mind that you may have to wait for a 4S/5 to become available though, as this was a problem last year.
 
If you're planning on getting the iPhone 5, then return it, though be prepared to wait, as others stated.
 
I ended up keeping it. I figured that the next generation of the iPhone will probably be really cool , but to be honest for all I'm looking for in a phone right now, I'll settle for the 4. I know i'll end up most likely regretting that when I see the new iPhone __.

But for me, it's a done deal for now.
 
if you really dont want it you could make a bug stink than blab about all your apple products, and how you have always been a customer and that you will never get anything fro them again. They will take it back
 
Return it and get the 5. It's too close to the 5 to keep the 4. You will regret it. If you keep the 4, I'll enjoy the 5 for you with the dual core processor, 8mp camera and so on. Return it and get a cheap phone for 15$ to get you by.
 
Yeah sadly they only do 14 days. Too late now 🙁

It doesn't hurt to ask them to return it, usually at the manager's discretion. Be honest that you believe the next iPhone will come out soon and you wanted to be ready for the new one.
 
After hearing about the new iPhone the other day, I'm not completely sad about it ,as it was only a few new things here and there. I'm not going to complain and say it 's crap, but I'm glad I kept my 4. I don't see anything besides maybe Siri that I would of loved on my iPhone.

don't see anything besides Siri? Better camera by a long shot, dual core A5 processor are nothing to sneeze at.

Yup agreed. My iPhone 4 is fast enough as it is and since I don't game, the additional speed isn't worth the cost. Although I am amazed by the quality of the iPhone 4 camera, and by extension the iPhone 4s, I find myself using the build in flash as a torch light more than the camera itself. Siri does sound interesting but I can imagine the novelty of it wearing thin after a week or two. Not gonner upgrade this year.
