I've had my iPhone 5 since it came out years ago. I like it still, but I'm aching to buy a new one because it's now sluggish, won't run Apple Pay (too old), and has a screen that's a little too small for my giant hands and aging eyeballs. I would buy a 6 or 6+, but don't want to do that because the 7's are just around the corner.
I thought the 7's are coming out this fall but if its only next year, then what I may do is look at a Samsung Galaxy (7?) instead. What I want to do though is make sure that it runs everything I currently run on my iPhone (especially itunes) before I make the plunge.
How old is your phone? If its more than a few years, go check out the new ones. They're sweet!

That's just it - I have checked out the new phones. And they are nice. Just as nice as mine. Once you put it in a case, it looks exactly like mine. And they all do the exact same thing my phone does too - phone calls, text, video chat, pictures, surfing; They all run the same apps. I have yet to find something my phone cannot do.
Like I said.... I removed a few apps, got a new battery and.... It's just like a new phone.
Why spend $700 or more on a new phone when all I needed was a new case and a new battery.
