So I have been using a white 5C for a couple weeks and I've decided I like the design of the 5/5S better, plus I like how light that design is. Should I try to get a used 5 off craigslist or just go up to the 5S?

Get a used 5 and a white case. That way it'll look like the 5C, only heavier. And if you take the case off, it'll look like the 5S, only less advanced.

Might as well get the 5s since the 5 and 5C are pretty much the same. You'll love it. You're going to get superior hardware, Camera improvements and TrueTone flash, plus the amazing TouchID. It's a win all around.

I'm always looking to upgrade when I get something new so I'd get the 5S.

Keep the 5c until 6 ....

5/5s design could be better, but they are more prone to scratches and scuffs.

I think I am going to just do this. I can always just put a case on my 5C to change how it feels. Next year I will just sell it to Gazelle or on CL and get the 6.

This is the best thing for you to do ... I believe!

If you are not getting a 5s, stick with the 5c honestly. You'll get way less LTE support with 5 and it ain't just worth it.
