Is it worth using an iPhone as an iPod, or should I buy an iPod separately?

As a Best Buy associate, we're limited to pre-ordering the new iPhone 5 to September 16th and after, as to give priority to customers first. I do plan on ordering tomorrow, though, and am unsure of what GB I should get. I'm wondering if it is worth upgrading the GB on the iPhone to use it as an iPod, or if I should just buy an iPod separately. I have no problem doing either, but I'm wondering what would be my best bet. I know that iPhones aren't famous for their battery life, while many regular iPods are. I would want roughly 3, 000-5, 000 songs on my iPod or iPhone. Thoughts, anyone?

Yea, use it as an ipod.
It's exactly the same thing but you can call on it.

Such a waste of money to buy both since it's the same thing.

Yeah, use it as an iPod too.useless buying an iPod separately.

  • Will my cell phone plan with verizon be cheaper if I get the iPhone separately? I plan on switching to Verizon soon, yet I will be on a budget since I'll also be living on my own for college. So my question is, can I open up an account with Verizon, buy a cheap phone with data and texting etc. On it, THEN buy a Verizon iPhone off of ebay? Also, how much would the monthly charge be if I was to buy an iPhone 5 with its plan at Verizon?

I'm 15, and I use to have a phone but I got really bored with it so I got rid of it, I don't want to get an iphone then get bored of it do you think i will find them boring.

  • Should I buy iPhone 5S or should I buy a DSLR? I own a Samsung Galaxy S3. I wanted to buy a iPhone 5S. Do you think I should buy a DSLR instead of iPhone 5S or choosing an iPhone is a better choice. Please don't tell it is my choice. If you had a samsung galaxy s3 as your phone and you have a choice to either buy your first DSLR or a iPhone 5s, which would you choose? I actually wanted to buy a DSLR, but now I feel like buying iphone 5s
  • Should I Buy iphone 5s is it Worth it 10pt? I have iPhone 4 without Siri or 3D map or nothing like that. BUT I do have unlimited 3G internet but if I switch to ANY new phones in general for Verizon, I would only be able to get 2 gb for internet use. But I want to stick to Verizon. What should I do? If you were me, would you still get it even tho there's going to be ios 7 available?
