The 5 is quite a large upgrade from the 4s.  The 5c is not much of an upgrade at all from the 5.

5s 16 gb $199.99 Can't justify this much $
5c 16 gb $99.99
5 16 gb $99.99
4s 8 gb $0

The only difference between the 5 and 5c is color and the 5c is plastic, correct?
There doesn't seem to be much difference in the camera between the 4s and 5/5c

The 5C is better than the 5. It compares them at apple.... let me see if I can find the link. The 5S is the best (which my husband has), but the 5C exceeded my needs & the price was great. I switched over from a 3GS and the difference is night and day.

 

I can't find the comparison link (and I'm on my phone so it's all little, lol). Here is the 5c link though http://www.apple.com/iphone-5c/features/

 

Basically, the iOS comes upgraded to 7 already and the camera is improved. I think it's minor stuff that makes it "better".

Thanks for the links. I thought I had read that the 5c was the same as the 5. I need to do more research, but now I'm leaning towards the 5c.

I'm not sure. Good question. The 3 doesn't have a front facing camera and can't be updated to the latest operating system, etc. I don't imagine it is worth much, but there may be a trade in promotion that could work in your favor with a contract. Verizon didn't offer one, but AT&T might. You may want to check on eBay too & see if they are selling for a decent price there. We just gave ours away. We received them for free from my dad, so we just passed them on to people that were still on flip phones. They already use straight talk so they only need to buy the SIM card.
