How is the 5c?

My wife needs a new phone and I'm trying to think of why she wouldn't need to just get the free 5c. I know they made it cheaper but how cheap is it? Is it any worse than the s4 plastic?

2 generations old processor and whatnot, it'll slow down faster as the os and other stuff gets upgraded over time.

She has the 4s now so I'm not too worried about that

The 5c is essentially a reskinned 5, so it's only half a generation above the 4s she has now. Unless there is reason to get a new phone, like a broken screen, you might as well keep her on the 4s and wait until the upgrade cycle next year.

Mine is great. Big upgrade from the 4S I had. I may get the 6 and give my wife this 5C.

It's a big upgrade from the 4s. The weight difference is substantial.

I would get the 5 over the 5c. The 5c is basically the 5 except stuck in shitty plastic

it is literally the 5 put in a new body. You will be dealing with a very out of date phone when your wife is due for another upgrade, but she may not care about that.

I really like the fingerprint scanner on my 5S, works better than I could have hoped.

spending the extra 200 bucks to get a current model phone, considering its something someone typically uses many times a day, everyday for 2 years, seems like a no brainer to me

For me sure, she really doesn't care though. She doesn't want one bigger than the 5s.

I'm running iOS 8 on my 5 with no problems so far. FWIW

I like the plastic better than metal. I had a 3GS with the curved plastic back, then a 4S with the metal/glass, and now a 5C with the plastic. It is very lightweight, even with my OtterBox commuter on it.
