FOR PEOPLE WITH IPHONE 4'S.

I know there are a few "will you upgrade" polls out there but I didn't see one for this questions, so here I go...

If Apple releases an iPhone with a better processor and camera, but the same body style as the iPhone 4, will you buy it? Or will you wait till they actually put some effort into upgrading?
 
I'm not wasting my upgrade on the 4S, if the redesigned phone is coming 6 months later...I'll wait.
 
Nope. Just like the 3GS was the only one I did not upgrade to.

My 4 works fine... if it's only speed bumps, that's pointless... and I'd never do it.
 
Then I'd base it on other factors. The newer iPhone has to have some sort of significant difference from the iPhone 4.

If they do an iPhone 4 clone, it will have the A5 and it will have an 8MP camera, and probably 1080p video. That's it.

Nothing else is going to take place.
 
I would cry and be depressed, but I have an official "always own the current year model of all major Apple products" policy in my life now...

I sure hope this isn't the case. We all don't know whats going on unless we're somewhere high up in Apple's chairs.
 
If it was purely a speed bump then no but apple would never do that as they know the comp is too good to stay the same.

Nope, I'm not upgrading unless there's a bigger screen.

And apple knows this, they know what people want and what will sell.
 
Since I've gotten my ipad 2, it's taken a lot of heat off of my iphone 4 as far as "bored for the moment and want to play a quick game" goes. A speed boost to me seems like a waist of time since the iphone 4 does pretty much everything I need it to do. If the screen magically gets larger and has a few other upgraded features I would more than likely make the jump.
