Lol u can't argue with a fanboy. Far superior? Sorry I don't see it either. The 5 is awesome and the fingerprint scanner is just this years Siri... A cool novelty and nothing more.

He might be a fan boy.

But you are either dilusional or just an outright liar trolling the board to rile people up.

Burst Photo Taking Capability, Slow Motion Video, Twice as Fast A7 Processor, the Motion Seperate Processor, the better Flash for better Night Photos, and the Finger Print Censor.

And all you are mentioning is the Finger Print censor and saying it isn't superior.

LOL

Yup. Liar or dilusional.

The 5 is fine.

Superior in the "it-should-be-better-after-six-months-like-all-electronic-devices" kind of way.

So what? the 5 is great. The 4S is fine. Use your needs to buy electronics. Otherwise, you will end up looking like a fool using the newest, most expensive, most hyped electronic just to do simple mundane tasks.

It's like using a MacBook Pro Retina with all the works just to write papers and surf the web. Yeah, typing a paper using iWorks looks sooo much better with Retina.

You're right, the 5 is fine if you can land a deal. If you can't get a discount, why wouldn't you buy a 5S instead?

So here is my question so besides the features offered by the 5s camera finger print sensor etc. can you tell me if your truly going to see a day to day difference in speed I mean transitions app opening closing I mean negligible at best I mean don't get me wiring the iPhone 5s is a superior phone but buy a large margin now way few milliseconds yes and maybe on gaming a bigger boost too but again I'm sorry but as in the past I'm just not seeing where the iPhone 5s is going to completely blow the the iPhone 5 out you the water no I'm sorry not that superior
 
I don't think people are looking for a 5 thinking it will be as good as a 5S however for the 5c crowd the original 5 is lookin sweet
 
Don't be a sucker. Once the new iPhone's hit the street the iPhone 5 will be available all over Craigslist and eBay.

The iPhone 5C is a way better choice than the 5, unless you're looking for off contract (which I am).
 
thinking about unlocking my AT&T 32GB 5 and selling it for $500

Good luck then. I'be been seen 64GB iP5's going for $450-500. I just picked up 2 Verizon ones to replace my AT&T 4S's.

Still wont work. You need an at&t phone to get at&t LTE (for instance the model I have is a1428)

Verizon iP5 is the way to go if you a) need Verizon due to your location and b) need to use your phone out of the US (comes pre-unlocked for GSM bands). If you know you need AT&T LTE then you need the AT&T and an unlock to use overseas.
 
Got a black and white iPhone 5 for myself and my wife after seeing apples keynote. The 5c is an uglier more kid friendly version of the 5 and the 5s has absolutely zero upgrades to it that mean anything to me. I don't need fingerscanning protection and the changes in camera won't be noticeable to my eyes. And we got them both from att for 99$ with a two year contract. (Actually I did att next on my phone so I can get the iPhone 6 sooner). But yea even the colors of the new phones are a turn off. We love our black and white phones. Gray silver or gold. Wtf is with those colors.
