If you're a person who tends to keep your phone for 2 years or more. Then yes, get the iphone 5 as it will be supported longer by Apple and it should be able to get a lot of the new features each major update offer. Were as the older each model gets, the less it's supported.
If you're a person who watches a lot of videos, tv, youtube..,etc on your phone. Then yes get the iphone 5.
If you take a lot of photo's, then yes get the iphone 5.
$133 usd up front is a lot more between 2 comparable phones but if you think about the 2 year span than most keep their phones, then that $133 is'nt too bad at all.

How so? The iPhone 5 still works very well on 3G and standard 4G networks.

The 5 besides having the LTE has a slightly bigger display, faster processor, and is thinner but longer. If I were you I would go to your carrier store when the 5 is released and have them display both to you side by side to compare.

Why not...the iPhone 4 is technically only 3G and it has got us this far.

If you're due for a new phone, 5 is still an upgrade from a 4 and will still work regards of what network you're on. And as mentioned before, if you are the type that switches out your phone after 2+ yrs, it's best you get the 5 now to stay with the growing technology. Or you can always wait until the 5s comes out and get the 5 for cheaper. I'm sure all phones after the 5 will be using their lightning connector and LTE network so it would be nice to have the feature to use LTE before it comes to your area, so right when it comes to your area, you can be the first to use it. However, if it comes after 2+ yrs, hmmm that would kind of suck, but that's just one feature you're only missing out. Guess you're going to have to think about the pros and cons. Good luck deciding.
