Help with buying an iPhone?

I have had my iPhone 5c for three and a half and it is time to move on. It is extremely touching with charging and is an internal issue, not the cord. Plus Apple will no longer be bringing updates to the 5c.

I tried buying a 7+ a month ago while on vacation but it didn t pan out. When we got home, I decided I would wait for the 8, but now I m having second thoughts.

The thing with the 8 is that the ONLY reason I want/wanted it was so that I could have an iPhone that Apple would keep updating. I thought, why buy a 7 when I could wait for the 8 and have more iOS updates in the long run. I don t care for the new features the 8 will have, so when news broke it was going to be $1,000 I started having second thoughts. Is a years worth of iOS updates worth the price?

I would prefer the 7plus over the 7 because of the upgraded camera. Pictures are important to me. So right now the plan is to wait until the 8 s are out to get the 7+ so that the price will go down.

Is the 7+ a smarter move? Will it be marked down significantly after the 12th?

    Whatever you do, wait until after the product announcement on 9/12. The current model phones may get a little performance upgrade (faster processor, improved camera), and will very likely drop in price.

    Get the SE if you don't wanna fork over all that money for an upgrade. The SE is current in all software updates as it was only just released last year and it's only on sale for $129 as of now. I have no problems at all with my SE. I upgraded from the 5c too and it sure is a LOT better!
