Does upgrading to iOS 7 hurt resale value of iPhone 5?

[gsugators]

I intend on selling my iPhone 5. Should I hold off on upgrading to iOS 7 just in case someone is looking to jailbreak an iPhone?

Yes don't do it.

My guess is that the type of people that will jailbreak it will have no problem getting iOS 6 back on it.

I think it depends on what version of iOS 6 you are on.

If you are on 6.1.3 or 6.1.4 then there isn't a jailbreak for those iOS versions so I wouldn't worry to much. Anything earlier though and I wouldn't update for resale purposes.
