I'm sorry but I'll stick with my iphone 5C.

Enjoy. I have several friends who did not upgrade and are stying with their 5S. One even returned his 6 Plus for a 6 and then returned the 6 for a brand new 5S and he is loving it!

You might be smarter than all of us!

Please tell me this is a troll thread.

My wife and I both have 5Cs. Our first smart phones (didn't want the monthly bill before). Got them in June and they were free at Verizon. White, 32GB. They are working for us.

Hairgate, that's rich. I remember back when I had a Motorola Razr, and it tore hair out of my head on a regular basis. I kind of expected it, like when you get a shock after getting out of your car. I didn't complain about it, because nobody cared to hear it. You just shrugged it off and got on with your life. Now it's a DEAL BREAKER, lol

Wtf is hairgate??

myscrnnm · Oct 8, 2014

Hipsters were getting their beards pulled out by the gap between the glass and the metal case of the iPhone.

Six8 · Oct 8, 2014

Hipsters, lol. Thanks

Somebody has buyers remorse.

Omg life changing post

koban4max · Oct 8, 2014

that's nice....but wait until next iOS 8 update...you probably won't be able to use it then because it might require more GB space than what you have now.

firedept · Oct 8, 2014

Awesome! My wife took over my iPhone 5 when I moved to the 6. She has really tiny hands and after holding my iPhone 6, she decided the iPhone 5 was a better fit for her. You'll enjoy the C. I think they are a great looking phone. Like the color options.

blackhawk526 · Oct 8, 2014

Went through 3 5Cs. They all had problems with the screen creaking if pressed in one corner. One of them, the screen actually began to separate from the back. But Good Luck to you.

Macshroomer · Oct 8, 2014

I was pretty sure I was sticking with my perfect all black 5....until I got a perfect space grey 6.

itsmemuffins · Oct 8, 2014

Damn right your sorry. Sorry you got an old, two year old phone, for that matter. A month before the awesome 6's arrived.

Hi

Hi everyone im new here

The-Real-Deal82 · Oct 9, 2014

Good for you and if you are happy with your choice, all the power to you.

I've just upgraded to the iPhone 6 and in 2 years time I will be coming to the end of 24 months of also having a cool phone that I am happy with. Perhaps you will get the iPhone 6 just as I am getting the 7? Awesome, high five.... Don't leave me hanging

cababah · Oct 9, 2014

So a random person on the Internet made a personal decision and this many people care becaaaaaauuse...????

haruhiko · Oct 9, 2014

It is not really wise to buy a ~1 year old iPhone 5c in September 2014, at full price, near the end of the cycle, with 2012 tech and a plastic body.

The iPhone 5c is clearly a failed experiment to release a 'cheaper' iPhone to address the so called mid tier segment. It is a compromised device with older tech, inferior body and what's more, it's not really that cheap. Apple realised that, and this year the 'c' line is completely gone as if nothing happened last year.

R1PPER · Oct 9, 2014

What problems. The ones that the media blow out of all proportion just to drive internet traffic.

r0k · Oct 9, 2014

I'm sorry but I'll stick with my iphone 5C.

My daughter begged us to get her a 5c a few months ago. Now she's mad when she sees my 6. Oh well. She wouldn't listen when I tried to tell her it wasn't a good time to upgrade. There's nothing wrong with her 5C but now she's even more upset because my son got my 32GB iP5. I had planned to give it to her. Next time maybe she'll listen.

I was at Target and they have 6 and 6+ on display. The sales guy said they had less stock of the 6+ since it's LESS popular. I think he had it backwards. I tried bending the 6+ and it's not easy to bend. Bend gate and beard gate are overblown.

scottw324 · Oct 9, 2014

Hmmmmm no bending or hair pulling issues here.....

You enjoy your 5C for the next two years. It is still a good phone but sometimes you have to try something for yourself and stop listening to the few that mistreat their device. There hundreds of thousands 6+ and millions of 6's in the wild and 99 point something percent are not having issues with their phone.

----------

The iP5 and the 5C are the pretty much the same phone. Apple just repackaged the 5 into the plastic casing. She really has nothing to be mad at with getting the C model vs the 5 model.

accountforit · Oct 9, 2014

If as many people bought the 5C as those who bought the 6, you would be well aware of many issues with that phone too. I am sure they have piss yellow screens, screens that aren't uniform, etc. You just don't hear about it much because that phone was a flop that most people don't want.

Inframan · Oct 9, 2014

Hey, don't pay any attention to the fools in this forum. Your 5C is a fantastic phone and the fact that you love it and it makes you happy is all that matters. The internet can sometimes be a place filled with a lot of dumbasses, just do your best to avoid them! Im hoping for a 6C myself, I would love to see the new 6 be offered in the many awesome colors the 5C is offered in - so you have a very good point Miss Stargdozer ! Take care

SlCKB0Y · Oct 9, 2014

Yep... Be happy for paying full price for a down specced iPhone 5 in a plastic case.

Inframan · Oct 9, 2014

Read my post above yours and also the quotes. And then think twice about adding your post. Thanks.

I'm sorry but I'll stick with my iphone 5C.
