If you buy an iPhone 5, is iOS 7 already upgraded?

I'm getting an iPhone 5 and I'm wondering if it is already upgraded to ios 7. And if it is, can I downgrade it to ios 6? I don't like the way ios 7 looks lol. But just asking.

1) iOS 7 hasn't even come out yet
2) The new iPhone is coming out in the fall therefore there's a new iOS.

Yes you can downgrade but it involves steps similar to jailbreaking… But since you are getting the 5 this is no longer an issue!

No, the iphone 5 comes with ios 6.1.4

Not now of course since it is not released but when it is yes it would.

For the record, iOS 7's look is not final.

No, iPhone 5 comes with either iOS 6.1.3 or 6.1.4.so you don't need to worry about it.

iOS 7 its more likely to be released by mid-september, and it's look IS definitive. The only changes that it might suffer is a re-design on the icons, but that's how its gonna look, but it has great features, i'm running iOS 7 beta 3 on my 4S.

And downgrading doesn't need a jailbreak like procedure, you just need the correct firmware and you can downgrade directly from iTunes.
