Should i Buy iphone 5 or not?

I'm not that rich so when i buy a phone i use it for as long as it works good so i was thinking about buying an iphone 5 its cheaper than iphone 5s,6 and 6 plus
so any advice?

i only use phone for calls, texts, facebook, and to check Emails

thanks in advance.

Added (1). can anyone suggest a phone?

Any smartphone that cost 1/3 of that will do.

Personally, you shoudnt. Buy a cheaper phone that has these fuctions, save up money, be richer and then buy a iphone.

I say no.
There are many phones that are way cheaper and way better. Like the oneplus one that costs about 300 dollars in the oneplus site, and is one of the best phones in the market… But if you want a more popular brand or phone you might want to go for the samsung galaxy s5.

Buy a Android phone… Iphones are overpriced ****
I own a iphone 5s & a HTC one…

You should get iPhone 5s/6 not the 5

IPhone 5 is not the phone you should buy.

You should get S4 or S5. Just don't buy mini versions.

Iphone 5 is not that much expensive for this moment. If you have enough money, I prefer iphone 5, a little more money, better use. Why not.

Buy at least the 5s, the finger print scanner is life changing. You don't know until you have it. Plus its still a solid phone with excellent performance.

Edit- If that is really all you do on your phone get a moto g. Its cheap and it will still preform on par with iPhone's. Plus its easily found for under $100. Try to get the 2014 2nd generation version because it has LTE.

I had a 5C before I bought the new iPhone 6 and the 5C has more LTE bands and the same front camera as the 5S and slightly better battery life than the iPhone 5. If you don't like the colors you can get the white one but it was a solid phone for me and it is cheaper than the 5S. You can also get iOS 9 with the iPhone 5/5C/5S so I wouldn't worry about getting the latest model if you can't afford it
