IPhone 4s or 5 what's better?

Ok so my birthday is coming soon and my mom said i could get an iphone and i'm trying to figure out which one i should get an iphone 4s or iphone 5 thank you!

Uh 5

Honeslty, the iphone 4s is the same as the iphone 4 (verizon store told us) i would get the 5. Bigger screen and better camera.

IPhone 5 is way better! I have a 5 and there's so many great things about it. Great camera(front and back), larger screen(I like it), way faster, and also depending on your contract, you can FaceTime anywhere without Wi-Fi. Some people complain about the new power adapter, but pretty soon all apple products will have it, so it's better to get the 5 and go with the new, rather than stick with the 4s which will have an old power adapter and not be with the newest technology. In the long run you'll be happier you got a 5!

Later is always better newer interface new hardware and more price of course go for 5

Later versions = always better hardware. Design is great too, width is perfect for using one handed and very thin in pocket, etc.

Holy *** you get an I phone for your birthday… Jesus… Rich girl. The best thing I got for my 18th last month was a can of beer and £20 lol.

I'd say the 5, it's newer, and has better hardware and a better camera. But there will be 2 new iPhones coming out this year (summer and fall).So you might wanna hold off and get a better one.

IPhone 5!

Get the iPhone 5.It's product lifespan will be longer thanks to the lightning port. It is also more powerful and the screen density is much greater (sharper images). IPhone 5 can make phone calls, has 2G/3G/4G network capability, better cameras, and a much faster processor. Buying unlocked is always a better idea in my opinion, because:

a) It almost always costs less in the long term
b) You can re sell for a higher value
c) No Lock-In
d) No carrier branding

Unlocking your phone yourself is invariably illegal yes, as it breaches the contract you agree to when you apple with your carrier.

Hope this helps.
