Should I buy the iPhone 4 or keep my iPod Touch 4G?

Either way I'm in an extremely fortunate situation, I'm aware.

My phone recently completely fell apart because someone sat on it when I got up for a moment. I need a new phone, basically.

I was looking into the iPhone 4 because I can afford it and, on my plan, it is only $20 more than I'm paying now per month for a data package. I would then, if I were to buy the phone, donate my iPod Touch or sell it on eBay.

I'm currently in the process of convincing my parents to let me buy the phone. I already told them I would purchase it online and pay the $20 every month to them for the bill. If anything happened to it, I'm fully aware that it would be my fault and there would be no warranty (that being said, I wouldn't let anything happen to it).

Should I keep up this battle with them to get the iPhone 4 or should I just work on getting a replacement phone? I've really wanted an iPhone since they first came out (I'm also aware that the iPhone is an extra expense that I do not really NEED as much as WANT).

I would get the iphone. Much better than the ipod touch since its like combining an ipod with a great phone. I would definitely get the iphone because it is worth it.

  • Which should I buy: iPhone 4 (japanlocked) or iPod Touch 4th Gen? Well you see, I'm basically gonna use it for music, mainly. The iPhone 4 (jpl) is gonna cost me like several bucks more. But the thought of possible call&text feature with the use of gmate is like a bonus for me. (But I have no gmate yet… Don't even need a new phone anyway) But then here comes iPod touch 4th gen, a few bucks cheaper than iPhone with almost the same use like that of the japan locked iPhone. Which do you think I should get?
  • Should I buy the iPod Touch 6th gen, iPhone 6, or iPhone 6s? I have an iPod 5th get since December 2012. It is in rough shape now and I'm going to have to replace it in the next months. What should I get? (I also have a MacBook Pro 2014 btw) *Would it be ridiculous to buy an iPhone and not get a plan right away?
  • Should I buy the Iphone 5 or Ipod Touch 5th generation? I'm not sure which one to get since it sounds like the exact same thing, except the ipod touch isn't a phone. Then the price is different too. I just want to know what you guys would recommend.
  • Should I buy iphone 4s or ipod touch 5th generation? I know iphone is more practical, but i still apps for a phone. And Ipod is more up to date. I would buy a used one thought, i have a budget. Thought? What is better, why?
