Should a person used to a basic cell phone get an iPhone?

I have the opportunity, through Verizon to get a "free" iPhone 4 with a 2 year contract. I already planned on getting a two year contract, as Verizon is the only carrier that works well in my area. I need a new phone, and the offer of an iPhone is tempting. The only cost to me would be an extra $10 a month for switching from a basic phone to a smart phone.

My real question is: Will I find enough use for it to justify the $10 a month? I don't use social networking. I text, and I would use the web while shopping. I use and enjoy apps on my android tablet. But I'm not a 20 year-old hipster, I'm a 30 something mom. Is an iPhone for me?

It's an awesome phone and you'll find additional ways to utilize it. If I were you, I'd go for it!

An iphone really isn't all that complicating. It may just need a little getting used to. I would rather have an iphone 5, but an iphone 4 is still better than nothing. They have great cameras, apps, and other things that androids can't get. I say take the offer, especially since it will only be a $10 difference every month! A regular iphone can be as expensive as $650 without a contract, or $200 with a contract.

Sure why not, you will like it alot once you start using it.

If you're already used to Android on your tablet, you should go with an Android phone also. One of the comments below listed things iphone has that Android does not. That's hogwash. Android phones have cameras, apps and everything else also.
