8GB iPhone 5 or 16GB iPhone 4s?

I'm getting an iPhone soon and I only want to pay $199. Which is the best option? I have heard some bad things about the iPhone 5, but I could get more space on the 4s.

Added (1). I meant a 16GB iPhone 5 and a 32GB iPhone 4s haha

Yeah

I just got the 4s and its great! I recommend you get it. The 5 is nothing special, just taller and has some exclusive stuff

IPhone 4s with 16GB. I've heard that the iPhone 5 only has a size difference compared to the iPhone 4s.

Get the iPhone 5! In the long run thats what your gonna want in the first place. If you have heard how do you know? I have had the iPhone4s and I loved it but I know I would rather much go for an iPhone 5. I don't think they make 8gb for iPhone 5. Get iPhone 5!

The 4S is perfect for you. The 5 has very little improvement to offer.

Thanks for your question

Look the iPhone 5 is a great phone, compared to the 4S. However if you plan on taking a lot of videos and pic's and apps, then go for the 4S with more memory as memory can't be upgraded.

iPhone 5 is better than the iPhone 4S because:

better low light camera,
faster processor, and more RAM and
better and faster graphics processor,
bigger screen space,
4G compatible, meaning you can enjoy 4G internet if you want to,
and a relatively better battery life compared to the 4S,

If you don't mind backing up your photo-roll regularly and you can live without installing tons of apps, then i suggest the iPhone 5,
Otherwise go for iPhone 4S, its pretty good too.

Also note that Apple will drop support for the iPhone 4S long before they do for the iPhone 5 as it is newer.
However keep in mind, memory is fixed in the iPhone and is much needed if you want to install a lot of big crazy game apps and take multiple videos which get recorded at FULL HD.

For both though, please get a case, otherwise the 4S's glass back or front will crack, while the iPhone 5 is prone to scratches.

Of course 8GB iPhone 5, why? The good: The iPhone 5 adds everything we wanted in the iPhone 4S: 4G LTE, a longer, larger screen, free turn-by-turn navigation, and a faster A6 processor. Plus, its top-to-bottom redesign is sharp, slim, and feather-light.
The bad: Apple Maps feels unfinished and buggy; Sprint and Verizon models can't use voice and data simultaneously. The smaller connector renders current accessories unusable without an adapter. There's no NFC, and the screen size pales in comparison to jumbo Android models.
The bottom line: The iPhone 5 completely rebuilds the iPhone on a framework of new features and design, addressing its major previous shortcomings. It's absolutely the best iPhone to date, and it easily secures its place in the top tier of the smartphone universe.
