Hi all, I am new to the forum and have a strange situation and question for you.
A little backstory....
I am an iphone user. I tried android for a few months with quite a few devices, but always find my way back to an iphone. I sold off my 5S before the 6 came out, only to buy an android (oneplus one), and hated it, lol. I then sold that and got a crazy deal on an excellent condition green verizon (unlocked) iphone 5C ($125). I have been using that for about a month now, and I am getting an itch to buy the iphone 6. I liked the size of the 6 plus, but one thing I remembered was how hard to carry and pocket the oneplus was which is about the same size as the 6+... I seemed to always be looking out for it, lol and it took up alot of my pocket. So, I really think the 6 would be the sweet spot for me personally. I watched about all of the videos lately on youtube about comparisons/specs/etc, and can't really figure out what way to go. I dont game at all on my iphone, mainly just talk and text, very basic use really.
I am on Cricket (ATT GSM Prepaid), and get LTE with the 5C, and great signal reception, compared to a few android devices I had that rarely ever stayed in the LTE range, and mainly just got H or H+ or even 1 bar of service to no service... (Nexus 5, OnePlus One)....
Another point I have to make is that I dont want to sign any contract or edge/next program due to my current billing situation. There are 4 lines on the cricket account and we each get 1GB of data (Use Wifi 90% of time and barely use 1GB a month), unlimited talk/text for $100 per month. The bill is paid by our job for us on the plan. So its a free service, and thus no need to open a contract or have to pay a cell phone bill.
I know its just a matter of personal preference, and that its basically just the cost of the phone that would have to be considered, but given the situation, is it a justifiable to spend or upgrade? Especially since I only basically have $125 invested in the 5C, and can easily sell it for that any day of the week. Making the Iphone 6 Purchase only $575 I would just appreciate any little insight that you may be able to give me. Thank you for your time, and sorry if it was a long winded post.
