Is It Worth Upgrading From The Iphone 4 To Iphone 5c

I have an iPhone 5s, which iPhone should I upgrade to the 6s, 7 or 8? I am a jobless teenager so money is important.

Thanks for the A2A.The short answer is that you have two main options:buy the one you can afford right nowsave/earn/raise money for the want you’d really want and wait until thenEach new iPhone model has more features and is more future-proof than the previous one.It’s hard to give you any recommendation without knowing your specific needs and expectations.Having said that, I’d skip the iPhone 6S, if at all possible budget-wise, because there is no guarantee it will run smoothly with or even be supported by future versions of iOS.Putting aside the current #iPhoneSlow saga, newer releases of iOS will inevitably require more resources or special hardware features over time.This is why the iPhone 4 is stuck at iOS 7.1.2 and the iPhone 5 at iOS 10.This means that, at one point, the A9 processor and the 2 GB of RAM of the iPhone 6S will have a harder time coping with future versions of iOS.In addition, once an iPhone does not receive any iOS updates anymore, it is not safe to use it, period.When could this happen? Impossible to say right now.But I would not be surprised that this could happen when iOS 14 gets released in 2020.Hope this helps!Edited to correct the latest iOS version supported by the iPhone 5.

Is the iPhone 5S worth buying in 2017?

When iPhone 5s was released, it was like a truck's engine fitted in a sedan car. As powerful 64-bit A7 chip was calibrated with 1 GB RAM and only 1560mAh battery. The chip in the iPhone 5s is way more powerful than it needs to be.No. It is not worth buying as it's already too late now. I am using 5s and I can feel the obsolescence. It has made me to regret even more after updating it to ios10. Metallic body looks sleek & handsome, but gets hot unnecessarily.But I should say the phone hasn’t loosen up its smoothness, multitasking and CPU handling capabilities. RAM size, as always, is not an issue for any iPhone. It is still better than any other phones released four years back. Performance of Camera and fingerprint scanner is commendable and unmatched, sure. If I get annoyed/lagged/hanged by any app, I just press the only home button. This is all time savior and rescuer. The phone is still too smart for those who had already bought it before.Major problem and concern is its battery and the aging hardware. Obviously, both will only deteriorate with time.Edit 1: iOS 10.3.2 update did solved many of the issues with app.Edit 2: Apple is now signing iOS 11 for 5s. Its amazing.Edit 3: iOS 11 made the iPhone 5s brand new with all its new and fresh features. But as predicted, battery and hardware are performing in their edge limits. Phone is still smooth.Conclusion: I have used the phone from iOS 8 to 11. So far, iOS 9.3.3 was overall the best for 5s.
