Finally upgraded after 7 years with the 4S

And I’m using the new phone (an iPhone 5S running iOS 12) to type this post. As version 12 will likely be the last one to be released for the 5S, I do plan to upgrade again in the future. My iPhone journey began in November of 2009 with a white 3GS, with upgrades to the 4 in 2010 and the 4S in 2011. In hindsight, it would have been cheaper to just hold onto the 3GS until support ended in 2013, and then go straight to 5S, and then in 2019 to whatever models come out, all the while putting away NZ$10 a week and consistently ending up with more than enough come upgrade day.
