Is Iphone 5 really better than Iphone 4s?

I'm getting a new phone, and I'm not sure whether to get an Iphone 5 or a 4s. Can anyone tell me some of the ups and downs of each?

The iphone is worth it some people may tell you its not i got the iphone 4s and returned it and payed the extra for the iphone 5

IPhone 4s is so much better than the iPhone 5.
The iPhone 5's battery sucks. It lasts for a few hours whereas the iPhone 4s lasts almost twice as long.
the 5's camera is better, the screen is longer and it's thinner
you can actually snap the 5. The signal sucks and the lock button sticks.
go for the iPhone 4s. It might be thicker and shorter but its a better phone.

I love the iPhone 5s design but I heard its really glitchy. I don't really like the 4s cause its so small but I heard its good. You might want to look at some andriud phones is you want a bigger phone.

Personally to me I would say the iPhone 5 because the iPhone 4s has such a *** small screen. The iPhone 5 has more RAM and runs the new iOS 6. I know that the 4s has iOS 6 but you are able to use every feature that iOS 6 has to offer. Like the 4 and 4s, the iPhone 5 has retina display but in the end the iPhone 5 would be my pick but the 4s is cheaper now because the 5 is out. Hope this helped!
