I have a jailbroken iPhone 5 and am thinking if taking a deal where I can get an iPhone 5s for my iPhone plus $100.

I'm concerned that I won't see a performance difference and that I won't like iOS7.

Thoughts?

I did the same as you are mentioning and regret doing it. Only big difference that I see so far from the jump is the id touch. Stay with your jailbreak till one comes out for iOS 7.
 
Trade my iPhone 5 + $100 for a 5s?

Word is JB will be out within days.

No performance difference? iOS 7 performance/regret?
 
I would trade in a heartbeat. Jail breaking is pretty pointless nowadays unless u want pirated apps or quick reply.

I like lock screen agenda (without pull down) and fast animation.

I also use quick settings which iOS7 has now.
 
Sold my jailbroken 5 and upgraded. Theres only a few tweaks i miss like 5 row dock, motion, and notification center tweaks but i can live without them. Even without bite since i dont text THAT much.
 
I had a iPhone 5 that I just sold for $420 and picked up a new 5S for $470 off craigslist. Turn down that deal I did not :cool:

AT&T devices btw.
 
I personally wouldn't. Not much of a difference, besides touch ID, and ios7. I've got a 5 on 6.12, not jail broken, not yet anyway, and factory unlocked. But if you want an upgrade practically for free, with money in your pocket, then go for it.
