Why the iPhone 5 is the Best Thing Since the iPhone 4S
Guest blogger Megan shares an open letter as to why her parents need to get her an iPhone 5 now. And a couple for themselves as well.
Dear Mom and Dad,
The iPhone 5 is awesome for you! Here is why you should buy me one.
Everything You Love Is Still There… But Better
Except the maps app, which I hear is not so awesome? But that’s what your GPS is for, duh! Whatever, you can still call me all the time. Due to the iPhone 5’s new LTE connectivity, I will be able to text responses to your voicemails much faster, and on the occasions when I take your calls, you’ll be better able to enjoy the sound of my voice.
Giving Me Money Is Easier
Even though the display is bigger, the iPhone 5 is lighter and easier to handle than the totally lame 4S. It can display five rows of apps instead of four, which means you don’t even have to toggle to the BofA app. Transferring money into my checking account has never been so easy!
The iPhone 5 Will Never Make You Look Dumb
The thingy you use to sync and charge your iPhone 5 is reversible, so you will never be “doing it wrong” when you try to plug it in. Think of how cool you’ll look, all knowing how to plug in your phone and stuff!
Your Facebook Cover Photo Will Always Be Current
You guys, the display on the iPhone 5 has a new, panoramic aspect ratio!!! Now that the screen is a 16x9 4-inch wonder, it’s perfect for taking new Facebook Cover photos. PS, it’s so cute that you’re on Facebook!
Here are some fall shows you need to stay in for!
It’s Not Even That Expensive
The iPhone 5 totally doesn’t even cost that much! Honestly, you don’t even have to look at the price. Trust me, it’s like a fraction of the cost of things that are more expensive than the iPhone 5.
OMG how are we not all at the Apple Store right now?
Love,
Megan

The iPhone 5 is an ok smartphone. Personally I prefer android phones. I have the S3. The iPhone is very easy to use and has a lot of apps. It's not on the cutting edge of technology but I don't believe most people want that anyways. Really the only advantages of the iPhone 5 over the 4s is a better processor, larger screen with slightly better resolution, it's lighter, more durable & easier to repair. I think most people would be better off waiting for the 5s or the 6. -
Well, since I'm hopelessly behind the times with my iPhone 4--even Dad has the 4GS--I may take this under consideration. So I won't have to ask for a Christmas list this year? xoxoxoxox

I wish this was here earlier! I wrote an essay to my parents about why I should get an iPhone... -
So, I wasn't all that excited about iPhone 5 until I held my friends. Even though it's longer, it's sooooo much lighter. It's like not having a brick in my purse! So for that fact alone, I want it!!!!! Maybe I'll duplicate your letter, and insert my own name and try it out. I'll let you know how that works. ;)
