Switching carriers and will be getting a new phone.

I currently have a 4S.

My choices are the 5c 5s 6 and 6 plus

I don't use much data. Camera is important, but I use it for memories and snapshots, not real "photography."

Any insights appreciated.

I have had all iPhones since the 3G and my favorite is definitely my iPhone 6. I didn't go with the 6 plus just because that was a little too big for me. The camera on the 6 is great. If you take a lot of pictures I would go with something bigger than the 16gb.

Not necessarily if you sink with iCloud. It sends the original to the network, and keeps a memory friendly version on your phone. You can quickly download the full resolution version if needed.

Don't get a 2 or 3 year old new phone. Your choice should be between the 6 and 6+. I prefer the size of the 6.

That's because you have a 4S! Wait until you can easily stream Netflix or HBOGO or WatchESPN.

You need to go into a store where you can actually hold them. The 6 plus is really big and would be difficult for most to work one handed. If you one hand your phone regularly, go with the 6, if not the 6 Plus has a better screen and battery.

Same here. Sort of. 3GS, 4S, and a 5C. I'll never have a 16gb again. I'm getting whatever the 6S version is called in September.

This. I chose the 6 because of the size. Miss my Galaxy S4, though; in terms of size, that was the best phone for me.

I've owned:

iPhone 3G
iPhone 4
iPhone 4S
iPhone 5
iPhone 5S
iPhone 6

My Dad owns a 6+ and it's just too big. The 6 feels like the best form factor for me personally. The camera is excellent and if you shoot any video, go into settings and increase the fps rate. It will really surprise you how much they've refined the experience from the phone you currently have.

I go back to the 3GS so I know iPhones and it would take me all day to type up how much I love the 6+. It takes maybe a day to get used to the size and after that the regular iPhones look and feel like toys. I can use it easily with one hand and I have normal sized hands.

Get the 6+.
