Grrrrr. Coming to the end of my contract and thinking of upgrading for 4S.
Now I'm happy with my 4S, but I would like a bigger screen (but not as big as the Galaxy 4) and 4G
So I have two options.
The 5C which has such horrid colours
and the 5S which I like the look of, but is so bloody expensive and I don't need all of the new fangled features.
So what I really want is a 5, but the phone operators aren't offering them any more.
Now I have quite a bit of money tied up in Apps, so don't want to change OS and buy the apps all over again.
What apple should have launched is a phone with a bigger screen, without the bells and whistles of the 5S maybe a 5B(ig)
Iphone 5(c) power with a bigger screen.

How much is it going to cost you to upgrade to a 5c/5s respectively?
just because you do, doesn't mean you should.

As always there are tariff limitations, the cheapest tariff you can have is the £41pm tariff (£179.99 handset cost for 32GB 5s) - although this upgrade tariff will be 1GB data, ask for 2GB data (if you need it) and they'll charge you £199.99 handset cost instead. They'll be unlimited voice and unlimited text.
F&F discount kicks in from the 2nd month (£24.60pm) on so looking at my spreadsheet, the TCO will be £786.79 (1 GB data) and £806.79 (2GB data) over the 24 months. This works out cheaper than getting a SIM free handset from Apple and going for the Three one plan £15pm SIMO deal
So I think you're getting angry over nothing
mind you these figures will probably change at the end of the month as EE are introducing new tariffs - 2 tier basically, so you could end up with a better content mix for less but then again they might keep upgrade tariffs (with or without F&F) at a different level.

I'm v.happy with my 5S. It does all the stuff a phone should do, like phoning and texting. Plus it lets me look at p0rn when I'm on the shitter at work.

You're being ripped off then - I'm with Orange (not F&F) and am only paying £30 for unlimited mins, texts, and 500MB data. 1GB would have added a fiver, but I don't come close to using it! (Bog-standard iphone plans btw)
