Ok my Green Inferno 5C is feeling a little out-muscled but it's gettin' by pretty good still...

I usually hang onto my phones a few years if they are good to me and this one has been epic reliable

I kept my Gold 5s for approx 22 months before I upgraded and I still miss the design.
I will probably keep my 6s Plus just as long.

My buddy still uses a 5S but much like my 5C was..... The battery would die with still 20% remaining. I prefer the squared edges of the 5S and C for comfort and grip. I also use the original Apple 5C case with the holes and the grip is amazing. It's so grippy it is difficult to put it into a front pocket at times.

My wife still uses the blue 5c. She loves it and doesn't want to upgrade. I use the 6s Plus.

Cool. I keep telling people I know that I prefer the squared off edges of the 5C because it actually gives me something to hold onto. I have a sinking feeling that EVERYTIME I hold a demo 6S it is so curved and thin that it will slip right out of my hands.

The one time I dropped the 5C was ironic because I was at the mall at the Apple place behind the official 5C case for it and the device pounced about 5 feet across the floor. If this was the 5S with the glass upper and bottom on the back it would've shattered no doubt. At that moment I was quite happy with polycarbonate!

Get an Apple Silicone case and you'll be fine :)

Posting late, sorry, but welcome to the forum! I use the 6 Plus, my Hubby still uses the blue 5C, but he has always kept it covered. For ages now he has had it in his fav Ohio State case. Least its well protected.

My dream would be if they made the 5C from the same rubbery silicone around the outer edges as the official Apple cases because I like minimal bulk if possible.

My Blackberry 9900 is a perfect example of this. The rubber outer ring keeps it planted in your hands, even if jogging and no case is really necessary.
