Okay I'm facing a small Dilemma.
My last phone was a nokia E72, which my daughter was able to rip the keyboard off.

and I've decided to get the iphone simply because i already invested in my apple account, with my ipad and wife's iphone it

currently i am looking for the cheapest new iphone to purchase. but here is the catch, im not sure if should go with the 4S or pay an extra 100 or so for the iphone 5.

PS I want to purchase an iphone within the week before the 1s June banning takes effect

Regards
Well, since i had the iPhone 3g, 3gs, 4s and 5, i advise you to get the 5 for several reasons:

1)The difference in price is very low compared to the specs
2) iPhone 5 has a better design and is slimmer and lighter than 4S
3) the battery of iPhone 4S sucks
4) it's just great :)

Good luck.
There isn't a single reason to go for the iPhone 4S except price. Battery, screen, CPU, GPU, RAM, the works. All are much better on the iPhone 5.

Only iPhones can sell at a difference of $100 between generations, honestly. With Android phones, forget it. Prices for a previous generation would be slashed after a flagship releases.
Okay so were do i get the best price.
@Gamer, check on ElMazad, you'll find lots of stores posting their prices.
i have iphone 5 64 GB black ..it looks hot ..but boring as hell ..i miss my old xperia
Yeah I love the black iphone 5 (though it has chipping problems) but I hate iOS.
Same boring OS since iphone 1
If only Apple can allow roms like on Android...
Thanks God HTC made a very close in look and premium materials phone aka HTC One (still VERY expensive 920$)

I also recommend the iPhone 5, I have been on iPhone since the iPhone 2G and I must say, the iPhone 5 is an amazing peice.

BUT BEWARE OF THE MODEL.
There are 2 models the A1428 and the A1429, if you are thinking of 4G subscription when its in lebanon (If that ever happens).

You have to go for the A1429 model the A1428 model will not work with 4G in lebanon.


There are a lot of websites and Facebook pages specialized in selling such stuff.

And when buying make sure to look over the smallest details if the iPhone is used.
You never know what was done with the iPhone.

- Back and Front Camera
- Speakers
- Microphone
- Accelerometer
- Volume / Silent Switch ....


Good Luck ;)
I was hoping to get some actual prices and location to purchase the iphone

I did check their site only found 4S and not even for sure if it is unlocked
Prices are around $600(for the 16GB i think), the phone is very elegant, metallic texture makes it feel like a premium luxurious device, MUCH MUCH better in every way than the 4S. Most people would find iOS boring, but I've been an android user for over 4 years and Android does get very boring after a while. iOS is much more polished and optimized for the devices it is running on, it is very simplistic to use, and the iPhone 5 has a reasonable 4"inch display vs ie the 5.5"inch on my note 2.
the price for iphon5 is about 670$
check amhaz or class those 2 are the best
Last time i went to Amhaz was with a friend, and i forgot how to get there
Class i don't like them because the prices change on how you look, it is not written (last time i was at class was few months ago)

I was at citycenter starcom shop and asked about the iphone5 they told me 710.

They work exactly like PCandParts if I'm not mistaken. Honestly speaking I haven't yet purchased anything from them yet. But according to their site, they're exactly like PCandParts.
Oh I assumed you purchased from them directly. I don't purchase from sites unless I hear good reviews from different people, or someone I know
