Those are my views as well. This will be a great upgrade for those of us that are on the 4s cycle and eligible for an upgrade with their carrier of choice. For those on an iPhone 5, although the 5s has some really nice improvements, it probably wouldn't be worth paying full price for one and would make more sense waiting a year for the iPhone 6. I'm definitely going for the 5s but I have to admit thatg I'm somewhat disappointed that there's no pre-order possible for that model. Not sure but I believe Apple's thinking behind that is wanting to create more excitement and crazy lines at the retail stores.

When I got the 4S in February last year and then saw the 5 out later that year it wasn't worth it to upgrade. Not only that, but it was too soon money-wise, but with the differences between 4S and 5S, and the time elapsed, it's worth it to me and I'll be getting this one. I'm looking forward to the new 64-bit chip and a better camera. The fingerprint capabilities is also a nice thing to me. -- Raul A.

The only difference is that the 5c has a plastic back and comes in different colours. The 5s, on the other hand, has several upgrades. The upgrades that caught my attention are: 64 bit a7 processor, two led flash, wide camera aperture, a more precise motion tracking system, and fingerprint unlocking. The first three will provide significantly improved OCR, object recognition, barcode scanning, and colour recognition. The fourth will provide more accurate motion tracking for things like distance measurement and certain types of app / Siri activation. The fifth will provide much better, and yet more convenient security. > > David Chittenden, MSc, MRCAA > Email: [email protected] > Mobile: +64 21 2288 288 > Sent from my iPhone > > On 11/09/2013, at 7:52, "Karen Poulakos" <[email protected]> wrote: > >> I've seen lots of posts about the purchase of these phones, but haven't seen any posts about the features offered. What is the difference between the two? I now have the 4S, and was planning on upgrading to the 5, with the hopes that one would be offered at a less expensive price.
