I'm waiting for my 5S as I believe when there is a major update, Battery life on the 5 and lower drains as my theory is if that didn't happen Apple would not get people to buy the new phones on Offer. As I have sold my current phone, and once I get my new one, I've decided not to update for now so it'll all be new to me when the phone finally comes to me from the Apple store.
