I love my iPhone 8. I won't bother to upgrade in a few months.

I'm with EE as best coverage where I live but Sky has some good deals.

I would although it’s an older model so wouldn’t buy it. Is it being given to you? You’re probably better off getting a current model as I doubt the new updates will apply to a 5s? Waits for a tech wise person to weigh in....

The 5s is her current phone, not the one she’s thinking of getting.

I have the iPhone X. I wasn’t going to upgrade from my iPhone 6s but wouldn’t go back now.

Sorry, I mean, get rid of current iPhone 5s for a new shiny XS or similar.

I have an apple XS. It’s a wizard. Great camera.

Love my iPhone XR, Ive had a 4,5,6,7 and now this. It’s the best one I’ve had by far, love the battery life.

I have an XS. It’s great, but I’m paying a lot for it. Sometimes wish I’d gone for the XR which is cheaper.

My DH just bought the IPhone XR.

I just wanted to say check if your work has a salary sacrifice scheme as he got it through that (you get an upfront voucher for Curry's/apple store) and saved a bit of money.

Apple also do it on no interest free credit from their store.

It's usually cheaper to buy through these ways and get a good sim only deal than buy the bundle through a service provider.

I've got the iPhone XS Max. It's big but I really like a big phone.

I do love it, the camera is amazing.
