Not quite the same but I'm going to upgrade from the 5C to the 5S tomorrow at the apple store for a few reasons.

1) NFC payments aren't that big in Canada (in my opinion) and since Apple pay is only in the States, NFC is a pointless feature to me. Also, our credit cards have chip nowadays and barely need to swipe our C/C.

2) Still prefer 4 inch than 4.7 inch. may warm up to it next year but we'll see.

3) Costs. Unlocked 5S is now 699 in Canada, which is in my budget. the 6 is a bit outside my budget after GST.

4) I still got TouchID on the 5S.

5) Will Definitely get the apple watch.

As much as I would love to get the 5.5 inch phone, I don't feel right buying a phone every year so I'm going to stick with my 5s for another year. I'm VERY tempted to get the watch though!

I will stick to 5s and I am sure I am not going to buy 6 ever never and that because I am really disappointed to the design and specially the round edge of the new iPhones .. I am totally disappointed .

All good points, thanks. Our IT department have finally decided we are allowed to use iPhones so I will be getting the 5s fairly soon, dropping BB forever. I actually feel the Bb Z10 is too big so I was not happy with the 6.

No upgrade and the 5s is still running great. Actually came from a gs3 because it was too big to me. (Well, it was mainly because it had poor battery life, was laggy and had terrible reception) but I didn't like how big it was either. 5s for me for now! Until my 5s doesn't. Work anymore and I'm forced to go bigger

Not silly at all, I think a lot of people will stick with the 4 inch screen because its more easier to use than a larger phone. I know I'll be sticking to the 4 inch for a while once I upgrade from the 5C to the 5S tomorrow.

Besides, I think Apple knows that a lot of people will be sticking with the 4 inch model. hence the reason for the Apple watch to also do NFC payments.

I was so excited for the iPhone 6, and I have an upgrade avail. for the last two years, but after whatching the event earlier, I was disappointed, and will be sticking with my iPhone 5, it works great on IOS8, and the phone I wanted..the 4.7 screen, the battery is nothing better, and the camera is pretty much the same..so really all I would get is a bigger screen. Kind of let down, but on a positive I will keep my iPhone 5 which I do love, AND STILL get to hold on to my verizon unlimited data :) gotta stay positive!

Problem is would the smaller iPhone be forever extinct now that iPhone 6 is the new precedent.

In my opinion, the iPhones that don't have touch ID may be extinct quickly as personal privacy is a hot topic nowadays. However, there should always be a place for an 4 inch phone as not everyone has big hands.
