I have a 32Gb 5, daughter has a iPhone 4. Both bought brand new at Xmas from Apple.

Wife has a BB phone and although she's the least techy, fancies an iPhone as "we all have one!". We also have iPads in house.

So was thinking of getting a 2nd hand iPhone 5, and giving that to the daughter, and giving the 4 to the wife, which is more than enough, tech wise, for her.

But I always like to have the latest, and although not sure what the 5S will bring (faster, more MP camera, NFC maybe), nothing seems to warrant upgrade, although it will be latest...


So what I don't want is to get another 5 now, and then the 5S be announced very soon. In this case, I'd but the 5S, give daughter my 5, wife the 4.

Comments anyone?

Cheers

There is 2 possible scnearios..

-Get the second hand iPhone 5 now

-Wait a few months, September/October at least.

Only you can make the decision.
