Which iPhone is a better model?

I'm thinking of getting an iPhone for the first time and I have no experience with it at all. So I'm asking for advice. I see that all these models are out there on the market: iPhones 4s, 5, 5s, and soon to be 5c.
I don't know which will suit me! I mean I like the 4s model the best b/c of its size and comfort of holding/typing on it (not that big) and i just like it, but its old tech now compared to the other models. I hate large screens ( probably the only one), i mean the size was perfect the way it was! I know tech is changing for the "better" but… Why?! Anyway, I would like to know which is the best to buy at this point (by next month). I heard the iphone 5c is cheaper than the 5 and 5s cause it has a plastic cover, so stupid! In my opinion (don't listen to me), I love how the iphone 4s looked, when i thought of an iphone i always imagined having that model.

I believe you should wait until next month when the new iPhone is announced. You said you preferred the iPhone 4S due to its size, I have used the iPhone 5 and 4 and the size difference isn't that big. I agree with you that the iPhone 5C with a plastic cover is stupid.

If you are talking about a better model, I would say iPhone 5S would be the better one since it's the premium model and will come with iOS 7, upgraded processor, dual LED flash for better low-light pictures and the rumored fingerprint sensor.

But if you really like the size of iPhone 4S, I would suggest you to wait for Apple's announcement on September 10. With the launching of new iPhone, there's 100% certainty of a price drop on the 4S. Then you would be able to decide better with the official specs announced.

Wait until Sept 10 because you are just guessing.
