The camera caught my eye and being on virgin mobile it was the nicest most advanced device I could get

All great answers and vastly different each and every one of them but that is why I started the thread to see WHY? I just came home today with mine that I had sent to the local Apple store an hour from my house after waiting forever but so far it is a winner and my upgrade was due. I got in and out in 1/2 hour and all I had them do was help me set up Touch ID. I came home and did the rest through iTunes and all went well.
I am happy to hear everyone enjoys their new 5S as I am sure I will too.

Well, as the days go on I start to use an appreciate the camera more and I have finally found some apps that make use of the faster processor. However, the feature that really spoke to me was Touch ID. Considering I'm a password kinda guy (learned the hard way, unfortunately) and also keep waking up my phone from sleep, a 4-digit passcode was really annoying to type repeatedly. When I heard of the new camera and the faster processor, the photographer and gamer in me immediately fell in love with me. However, as soon as they mentioned Touch ID, i made my decision. I mean, a faster processor and better camera are almost always a given. However, something like a fingerprint sensor was great news for someone like me, who kept waking up his phone all the time but grew annoyed of the passcode, the decision was easy. I had to have this phone.

TL;DR: It was Touch ID, plain and simple.

Biggest reason was upgrading to 32g. My 4s was 16g.

[iOS Gravity]

I thought most people bought it due to the new Gold Color and the Touch ID. Also, the better camera.

Speed over same as iPhone 5, with some bels and whistles. But much more faster

I had an iPhone 4s for two years and felt like this was a worthy upgrade.

Because it is a phone that fits in my hand. Because it does NOT look like I am holding a 32" TV screen to my head.

 

[BuLL eTZ1]

The size, being it still fits in my hand.
