advice please

Currently have two "dumb" phones and looking to move up to smart phones. Is the 5C a good phone overall? I am very concerned about retaining the excellent voice quality that I have on my old flip motorola phones. I am sure that the texting and camera functions will be better- but the call quality is important.
I was going to get 4S or 5 because I like the "look" but the 5C is priced better and the new 5 is no longer available.

Thank you,

If you can get the 5S or the 5C at an upgrade price, go for it, if you have to pay full price, save some $$$ and get a used 5...

Thanks. I can get an upgrade on one but the other is not due until April. May have to pat early out.
I am not keen on buying a used phone. I am not that knowledgeable enough about them to feel comfortable looking for issues. I wish that I could get new 5 from the carrier or apple.
