Can Iphone 3GS do what Iphone 5 can do?

Might sell my iphone 5 because its worth so much… I might just get an iphone 3gs… As long as it can play music, spotify, be used a an internet ddevice that is good enough for me

Yes it can. I have one and my sister have the iphone 5 theny are almost the same.

the iphone 3gs evan got the latest os.

To answer it, yes
They may advertise new things on apple ads but in reality every time it says there's a new ios software your basically getting features of an iphone. I admit the iphone 5 may be faster but in reality all apple can do is change physical features e.g screen size, weight etc.

IPhone 3GS
The iPhone 3GS can run iOS 6, but as with the iPhone 4, turn-by-turn navigation, 3D flyover and Siri are missing. The 3GS also misses out on shared photo streams, 3G FaceTime and VIP smart mailbox. And there's no offline reading in Safari, but you can still stick with the likes of article-saving apps Instapaper and Pocket (formerly known as Read It Later).

  • What can the iphone 5 or 4s do that the iphone 3gs can't? I mean like distinct features. And are there some apps or stuff like especially for the 4s or 5? Cause I'm thinking about getting an iphone and well they all look the same to me.except of course no front camera on the 3gs but I can live with that. So what should I get?

  • Can't restore My iPhone 4 from iPhone 3GS backup? Today my girlfriend got an iPhone 4 after her 3GS broke. She brought it home and went to register/set it up. We go to do the restore from back up and nothing happens. We wait for 15+ minutes for it to happen and all it does is make us do it all over again. What is going on and why isn't it working?
  • Can you switch SIM cards between iPhone 3GS and another iPhone 3GS? Me and my boyfriend are switching iPhones because mines cracked and he said hell use it till I get a new screen. We have the same kind of iPhone, both 3GS. I was wondering, if we could just simply switch SIM cards. Like me move mine to his phone, and him move his to my phone. And the phones actually work. If we do so, will our numbers automatically switch over? And what about contacts and what not. I'm mainly worried about our numbers.
