I bit the bullet yesterday and upgraded my iPhone 4S to an iPhone 5C...and my oh my what an ordeal in getting all of the settings, data and apps backed up -- then restored to my new phone. I never could get the Verizon Cloud to work...and neither could the staff at the Verizon Wireless Store. So I had to use my iCloud storage...and though I did have enough (15 Gigs) to back up my phone, I didnt have enough to then load some new Software fixes Apple just released. So...needless to say, I had to buy more storage! Then my signal strength was fluctuating while sitting still, I couldnt send or receive texts -- and of course, I had to delete and reset my cars blue tooth connection. Ended up having to get a new SIM Card...deleting then re-setting my Network Settings -- three times -- and then I had to delete and re-download every app that involved a geo-locating or texting feature. How I got through all of this without screaming at someone, hitting someone or breaking something expensive is not only a miracle...but a testament to how much Ive mellowed in retirement! :) Its all good!! All to say -- if and when you choose to upgrade to a new Smart Phone -- Caveat Emptor!! And now...I love my new 32 Gig iPhone 5C!!
