iPhone 5s/ 5c: is it worth the price to upgrade?

With the new release of the iPhone 5s merely two weeks ago, it has been reported by Canaccord that the iPhone 5C is already undergoing “very strong sales” and predicts that it will sell over 52 million iPhones internationally during the last quarter in 2013 . In addition to this, the new Apple product has already stepped over the Samsung Galaxy S4 and is on its way to becoming “the top-selling smartphone” among the four major carriers in the U.S. Not only do the new iPhones now have better colour options, but they also have advanced technological features such as touch ID and improved camera. Although this may all sound very appealing to the vast majority, many consumers have difficulties deciding whether it is worth the price (which ranges from $199 to $849, depending on whether it is on-contract or not) to upgrade, but only to find Apple launching a better version in the near-future; and as far as the trend has gone so far, that may potentially happen. However, it is almost without a doubt if that ever occurs, Apple will be able to achieve this as a result of its strong reputation and consumers’ loyalty, regardless of the price.
