Alex,
I used my 54S with iOS 7 in the beginning and it was no problem at all. The 4 was slower but the most recent iOS 7.1.1 update addressed this to a large degree and I have some friends who still have a 4 and who say that iOS 7.1.1 now runs much better. As for battery, well, yes a iPhone 4 battery would drain faster because it's a 3-year old battery and I don't think that has anything to do with iOS 7 but more with the fact that it's a battery which nears the end of its lifespan.

Even if the 5C will do fine for you for now, if you hold onto your phone for a while, how will that 5C be in a few years? iPhone 4 and 4S owners often complain of battery drain and sluggishness with iOS7, while iPhone5 and 5S owners are okay for the most part. How will iOS9 treat your 5C compared to a 5S?

The rest is all speculation, but keep in mind as well that it will almost certainly have a 4.7 inch screen and for many blind people the larger screen which of course also means a larger phone is not that important. Will it have an improved camera, well, yes, almost certainly. Will it have Touch Id? Yes, definitely, but apart from that who knows. Speculation is that maybe Apple will already introduce Sapphire Crystal screens this year which of course would be awesome, but while the rumours are starting to fly it is still early. My guess is that the 5S will stick around as the new low-price 4 inch phone as some rumours claim Apple will release an iPhone 6 with a 4.7 and a 5.5 inch screen. I, however, could also see a new 4 inch iPhone 6 and a 4.7 inch model as well as the 5S. Anyhow, maybe once June 2 comes around and we find out about iOS 8 there might be more that can be deduced about the iPhone 6. I do think, however, that it will be a rewarding fall for Apple fans with the new Apple TV, new iPhones and maybe even an iWatch. I could also see that the iPod Touch Fifth Generation gets an update again as it will be 2 years and of course the iPad, let's see if Apple will add a 12 or 13 inch iPad Pro to the iPad Air and iPad Mini as well as Touch Id.

You really ought to wait; the 5C is not a bad phone, but it's basically the 5. You would be better off waiting for the 6 (or whatever they're calling it), as it will have all the features of the 5S (i.e. TouchID), and a lot more besides. Cheers.
