Upgrade to iPhone 5 or Samsung S4?
I know this question has been asked multiple times, but I was wondering what the opinion was based on my specific needs.
I'm very tiny. 5'2 and my hands are maybe 6 inches from palm to tip of middle finger. I'm a full time student and work full time as well. I'm constantly on the go and I do a lot of traveling!
Currently, I have an iPhone 4s. I'm very clumsy with it, and I have shattered it 5 times. It's a costly repair, so I'm currently just walking around with a shattered phone because my upgrade is coming up.
Anyways, I'm an "apple snob" I guess. I have a MacBook Pro, that I love. As well as an iPad that I love as well. However, these items are not used as much as my phone is. So I love these products, and I think it's convenient to have an iPhone because the cloud saves my pictures to my MacBook. Which is very convenient.
With all that said my top gripes about a new phone are:
1) Battery Life: I need something with a very substantial battery life. As I said, I'm constantly on the go. I'm constantly checking emails and checking social media sites. Currenly, with my 4S I only get about 4-6 hours at a time and that's assuming my Wi-Fi is off, my brightness is on it's lowest setting, and I cut back on using Internet based apps.
2) Size: As I said, I'm tiny. I'm not sure how big of a phone I could handle. I like things that can easily fit in one hand and I can text with one hand as well.
3) Stability: I need something that is going to provide very, very good stability throughout it's life. No battery wear, no malfunctions, etc.
4) Camera: I use my phone as a primary camera and would want the best of the best quality.
*Side Note:* If anybody has opinions about the 5S/6 whatever will be the next iPhone, you can use that in the comparison as well.
Don't buy a new phone at all if you're clumsy.
- When I upgrade my iPhone, can I upgrade to the same phone? I have the iPhone 4S and my upgrade is soon, but I don't want the iPhone 5. And I have some little cracks and my speakers are weird. So when my upgrade comes can I just get the same phone that I have now?
- What is a good phone, iPhone 5, Samsung Galaxy S2, or Samsung Galaxy S3? I need a new phone and I'm wondering which I should get. My friend is selling his GS2 for around 50 Bucks and I could possibly get an iPhone 5 or Galaxy S3. Can you tell me the prices with and without the plan. And for people that have these phones could you tell me how good it is and which carrier(Sprint, Verizon, At&T)?
- Should I upgrade to the iPhone 4S or wait for the Samsung Galaxy S4? I have the option to upgrade from my old black berry curve to the iphone 4s for free, or I can wait a month to get the samsung galaxy s4. Also for free. Sorry I made a mistake, the Samsung Galaxy S4 I would have to pay for that one but it would be cheaper for me because I'm upgrading.

- Should i get an upgrade to the iphone 5s or samsung galaxy s4? I need the phone that has a good camera. I hate the lumia because it has a 3inch camera in the back. But it fels so heavy a 41 megapixel camera at 173 grams. I friends at work say to get the iphone 5s or 5c and at home they say get the s4. I need a phone for business i'm ceo of 5 guys burgers and fries. I need a verygood camera. And a phone for gaming, tell me which phone to get. 20 points to a good answer
