Upgrade to an iPhone 4S
With the announcement and pre-order of the iPhone 4S available, I’m wondering about how many people are considering moving to the new phone?
The new phone is once again an improvement to the iPhone 4, but not huge – the party line has been if you have an iPhone 3G or 3GS, this upgrade is a no-brainer. You should qualify for a subsidized phone upgrade and the speed, features and quality of the device are worth the cost of the upgrade. Those owners of iPhone 4′s have less compelling upgrade options. The quick run-down on the iPhone 4 to iPhone 4s differences are;
- Faster Processor
- More memory and storage
- Better camera
- Siri “voice assistant”
- iOS 5 (which will be available for the public on 10/12/2011)
If you have one of the older phones and are considering the update, look into Gazelle or NextWorth. Apple also has a return solution too (for a little less money) but provides another option. Inventory is climbing as people start the process of selling the devices to these companies. If your phone is in good working order, most people will see around $100 for an iPhone 3GS and $150-175 for an iPhone 4. Obviously this drops your out of pocket nicely…
